I know that I vowed to put any Metal Gear theories aside before the release of MGS4 but in the past few days something clicked and so I want to share it.<\/p>\n
What has clicked is the identity of the Patriots. If you have played through Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops then the identity of the Patriots, or at least the people that had founded them at a particular stage is quite obvious. You find this out after the credits roll<\/a> through. It is Ocelot, Big Boss and the person with the same code name as Null.<\/p>\n This is common knowledge among MGS enthusiests. What is of great mystery though is the person with the same code name as Null. This person appears to be the mastermind behind the Patriot uprising (as they controlled Ocelot during MGS PO) and are as such the figurehead out of the three participants. Further more it makes sense for this person to have retained their role and to have had continued control over the other Metal Gear games.<\/p>\n So the identity of this person with the same code name as Null is of great interest among fans. I think that I have cracked it though.<\/p>\n Let’s think of Null for a second, Null is Ninja\/Frank Jaegar\/Grey Fox andhas been a staple character throughout the series. In Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops he is given the code name; The Perfect Soldier. So whoever this person is they share the name \u201cThe Perfect Soldier\u201d. So who else could this be bar the The Boss; Naked Snake’s mentor and maternal figure.<\/p>\n
