Six Wild Metal Gear Solid V Fan Theories

With TGS and a handful of new Metal Gear Solid V footage behind, Outside Xbox’s clip weaves further the web of never ending fan theories about the game’s plot and the characters’ backgrounds.

Snake’s New Best Friend Is A Wolf Named DD

Snake has a new best friend in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. And thus was Call of Duty Dog completely forgotten.
