Big Boss Betrays The Player – Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain

Metal Gear Solid is a series many hold near and dear, so when it came time for the finale many had been waiting years for, series creator Hideo Kojima did not disappoint. You play through the entire game as Venom Snake, who you are led to believe is just a more grizzled version of the Big Boss we’ve all come to know and love.

He goes on to be the villain that Solid Snake eventually kills, which turns the entire game on its head.
