I'm somewhat confused with the situation of Snake and all his clones in the series. Could someone explain all this to me?

There were 3 clones of Big Boss. Solid Snake, Liquid Snake, and Solidus.
Solid is twins with Liquid. I think Solidus was created before the other 2.
Solid is the 'inferior' twin(they forced all recessive genes to him), and Liquid was given all the dominant traits.
They both didn't know who was actually the 'inferior' twin. Liquid got all caught up in proving himself, and fought Solid Snake(he lost).
Solidus was the president, and figured out that they made more clones, or something. I can't really explain it that well, but I know what happens in the story...
Snake ends up being the last of his bloodline, and he's aging very fast, because of his recessive genentics. Everyone dies, but he continues to fight. Foxdie kills everyone around Snake that was on it's targeting system, but they spared Snake.
Ya, see. I don't really know... I have like zero memory for this sort of thing. Ask @Chrono_Cross. He'll be here soon I think.

EDIT: You can read about the plot somewhere on the internet. I honestly didn't really have any clue until I played each game a couple times, and then read about it some more.

Octuplets. Five were sacrificed to make Solid, Liquid, and Solidus.

Liquid is the superior brother to Solid while Solidus is the most identical and the more advanced clone (Solidus>Liquid>Solid). The confusion comes where Big Boss tricks Liquid into thinking he's the inferior one when it's quite the opposite. Big Boss used reverse psychology on Liquid to make yet another enemy for Solid whilst still containing Solidus' existence a secret.

FoxDie is an incurable disease Naomi injected into Solid due to her obsession with revenge because of the Gray Fox incident. With that, Solid was used as vector to spread FoxDie which affected everyone he came into contact with. Liquid and Decoy Octopus died from it, while Meryl and Otacon, somehow, never showed any side effects.

Just for you.

MGSV is Red Dead 3. THE GREATEST PLOT TWIST IN GAMING.

this game looks incredible and honestly appeals to me more than previous MGS games.

I hope it releases this year. Definitely magnificent!

And the older man is Ocelot! **** yeah!

Edit: Though, I don't understand why Ocelot looks so old. Twenty years doesn't do that to a human.

MGS5 lookings incredible cannot wait to play it on the PS4, the visuals are excellent. An open real time world with no loading times, we'll be see a lot more of MGS5 over the coming months.

that music is the definition of epicness. the story seems even more crazy and way more serious than ever. i love games but there are only a very few handful of games that really touch you. metal gear solid games are definetly the best.
i love nintendo but this is something nintendo games will never achieve

Given how light hearted Peace Walker was, it's hard for me to swallow how serious a turn the series is turning.

It does look good though. Still not sold on Jack Bauer replacing David Hayter for the voice but I can live with it.

Metal Gear Online and User Generated Missions to Feature in MGS V: The Phantom Pain

According to the series creator, the game will see the return of multiplayer element Metal Gear Online, while also offering players the ability to create and share missions.

I thought i would post this here for people that are interested in MGS5

All i know is Ground Zeroes will actually be a prologue to The Phantom Pain, Ground Zeroes following directly from the events of Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. Kojima hasn't said anything more really only that this is his final Metal Gear game's. Sad i know but he said that about MGS 4, but this time i think it's different.

He had said that about every MGS since 2.

He did say unlike previous times he is serious.
