COBRA UNIT
The Boss and her Cobra Unit were a huge presence in Metal Gear Solid 3, and the game ingeniously told us just enough about their backstories to get us hooked, but not enough to leave everything properly explained. Back when Kojima was still at Konami, he had ideas for a prequel Metal Gear game that would be the first in the series’ chronology, and focus on The Boss and the Cobra Unit during the events of World War 2. And really, that’s a prospect that’ll make any Metal Gear fan salivate. Getting to know more about the Unit, about The Sorrow, about The Boss, about their relationship, and eventually even about the birth of Ocelot? Who the hell wouldn’t want to see a game with all that stuff?
