So, anyone who’s paid any attention to the Metal Gear Solid series knows that Hideo Kojima had Escape From New York‘s Snake Plissken (played by Kurt Russell) in mind when creating the character of Solid Snake. Why up until now we haven’t had a mod like the following, I have no idea.
Modders Jinmar & CapLag have created a mod for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain that allows you to fulfill the dream of not only having Snake Plissken in the game, but also Jack Burton from Big Trouble in Little China! The mod actually replaces parts that are already in the game, so you’ll have to equip those specific parts to see the mod in action.
Even better, Jinmar has created a YouTube video showing off the Snake Plissken skin in action that hits all the right spots.
It’s also a sad reminder that we may not see a Kojima-led Metal Gear game for a long while. But, at least we have Kojima’s upcoming Death Stranding (which lands November 8thon PlayStation 4) as a consolation.
