In Metal Gear

This guy looks familiar... hmm... lets see




OH MY GOD! He looks like Michael Biehn!

that reminds me of the Contra Cover its got 3 different movie cover into one , just think about it.

Wasn't he also wearing a headset similar to the one on the cover during the future flashbacks in the Terminator? I think you might be on to something here. Anyhoo I still think it's a cool cover, and at least it's not Fabio.

...

Okay, that pic of Solid Snake is just TOO similar. Man, that is really funny actually! Sean Connery is rather like Big Boss as well. I think I've made that comparison before, but this Michael Biehn one is new... and without a doubt an extreme likeness! The hair, the gun, the pack on the hip... Nice!

Celebrities in 'Metal Gear' games isn't that uncommon. I think virtually every character in that series was based off a movie icon or real life person.

Another well known one is...



And the most blatantly obvious one of them all...



There's no coincidences here folks.

...

By the way, Albert Einstein is credited with the development of nuclear based war technology (most notably the atomic bomb) so the similaities between him and Dr. Petrovich is uncanny.

Thanks for the info Zen. This is quite cool.

I wonder if theres anything like this in the new MGS games? *...runs to PS2 with a really wide open mind.*

Noticed some more similarities..

Mel Gibson - Solid Snake in MG2

Christina Applegate - Holly White in MG2 (though some other actress with a career high point in the late 80's, early 90's might look even more like her).

Tom Berenger - Grey Fox in MG2 (he does bear a resemblance to Willem Dafoe and Rutger Hauer also)

Dolph Lundgren - George Kessler in MG2

Because I suck at looking for pictures, I don't really have any photos for comparing.

Wow, thats crazy. Not many series other than Metal Gear did the whole lookalike thing, although POWer Punch 2 could be counted. Here's another intersting factoid: This fella actually modeled for Ironsword.


FABIO!!!!
(So it's a Metal Gear thread, sorry...I just had to post Fabio somewhere)

has apparently destroyed all his past posts for reasons unknown).



Yeah, Solid Snake looks like Michael Biehn.

...
Oh and please, no more Fabio pics until 2007.
At least.

Just in case no one has ever seen this side-by-side, I grabbed the images so you could see:

Sean Connery / Big Boss (Metal Gear 2 - Solid Snake)

Thought about it...



Arnold meets "Aliens". Could be a blockbuster.
