Oh, motherfuck.

Ya'll know how I'm getting a 360 for Christmas? And ya'll know that I'm a big fan of the MGS series? And ya'll know that I was ridiculously happy to not have a PS3 because it meant I didn't have to play MGS4, which is simultaneously amazing and crazy depressing?

Well, some prick on my FList (HE KNOWS WHO HE IS! :SHAKES FIST:) put the idea in my head that MGS4 was going to be ported to the 360, because that's kind of tradition with the MGS series.

And after some googling, guess what I found.

God, now I have to buy it, play it, and cry buckets because Kojima is never done torturing his characters apparently..

idk, I was always very "bwuh? wtf?" about it, and no one ever seemed to talk about it and the game never explained it, so I was left wondering where all the missing scene fics for that was.

My personal canon is that Otacon dyed it for the dual purpose of a) obscuring his appearance since he and Dave went into Philanthropy, in order to avoid being recognized by anyone from Shadow Moses, and b) possibly emotionally separating himself from his former life. Y'know, the same way middle-aged women "reinvent" themselves by getting haircuts and whatnot ;)

You just compared Hal to a middle-aged woman and I find that hilarious and so true. :3

I kinda wanna write a ficlet about it. All I know is that it starts: It came as a surprise to everyone but Dave that Hal was the first of the duo to start going grey. Am trying to hash it out in my brain right now.
