For me it goes-
1. Solid Snake
2. Big Boss
3. Ocelot
4. Raiden
5. The Boss
6. Liquid Snake
7. Eva
8. Volgin
9. Solidus
10. Grey Fox
Honorable Mentions-
Otacon, Vamp, Quiet, Skull Face, The End, Psycho Mantis, Meryl, Roy Campbell, Kaz.
If you don't fix whats broken, you'll go insane.
(not in any order, and I'm including "Metal Gear Rising" into the equation)
* Raiden (he's actually my favorite Metal Gear protagonist, especially with his character arc in Metal Gear Rising)
* Big Boss and Venom Snake
* Solid Snake
* Ocelot
* The Boss
* Eva
* Quiet (I hate the outfit and how much the cinematography focuses on her body during cutscenes, but still a great character)
* Armstrong
* Skull Face
* Miller
Lots of good well-rounded character to choose from in this series.
In our struggle to survive the present, we push the future farther away.
