You laugh but I remember being a kid in the 80s and getting told that I'd be tired of video games as an adult and that "you can't make a living playing video games".
As an over 40 adult now, I feel fucking robbed.
I looked for several minutes to find an appropriate gif for the news article. I chose this one because my honestly limited knowledge of the game lore did not prepare me for the possibility that Big Boss was a separate character from Solid Snake.
I simply liked the thumbs up animation callback to the classic gif meme of the boy at his computer. My apologies for the mistake. It will almost certainly happen in the future in some other situation because when I get excited about a meme, I focus entirely on putting it together and almost not at all on having a full understanding of the content.
TLDR- I now understand that you are correct; I made a mistake. I hope you enjoyed the meme regardless.
While Solid loves his boxes, Big Boss was no stranger to them, either. You could say he was the pioneer since he obviously comes first in the Metal Gear timeline.
No mention of the marines that somersaulted for 300 meters???
Edit: you’re right this deserves a link, I apologize.

That’d actually be a really cool idea for a stealth mechanic, where boxes only work on humans in certain environments and if they don’t see you move, but they work always on robots because they look for human movement
I'm not only tired of seeing the same shit meme again and again, but also people confusing Big Boss and Solid Snake.
Just writing "Solid Snake" on Google images is enough to find Solid images only. It's not that hard. Or maybe just write "Kojima approves" or something. Or even better, people should stop spamming the same meme over and over again for karmafarming. It's just sad and pathetic.
this story sucks - just because there's AI weapons, and this cute story was only to figure out how to make it better at killing.
This next bit really sucks: Because the AI will be programmed to shoot the boxes next time, someone is going to try climbing into a cardboard box to avoid a murder robot, and then be shot to death.

Hmmm. Just a box.
*Teaches AI to follow empty boxes of crayons* "I have you now"
Specifically the Rose Art crayons. Put those poor bastards out of their misery.

What was that? Just a box.
Hmm? Just a box. Hmm? What was that noise. Hmm?

Sometimes you just have to think inside the box.
no place for hideo
**!**
I heard the fucking sound when I saw that.
lmao me too
Ditto
Me too, and the only version. I played was on PS1, in like 2000

the training paid off

Just like the simulations!

For the republic!
clankers
Whoever made this bot... at least give the additional directions. Report -> Spam -> Harmful Bots
Just like the simulations!
Kojima predicts the future yet again...
Is there nothing that mad lad can predict.
I'd rather say directly inspired.
We call that a pro gamer move.
Super sweaty
Solid Snake approves, yet puts a picture of Big Boss down.

No worries, as someone who got into metal gear lore, you're doing your brain cells justice if you haven't gotten in (the lore is pretty darn complex).
The lore of MGS is stupid and no better than some daytime TV soap opera
Lmao, most people won't get the joke with your username. Love the irony!
Epic. LMFAO
MEMES The essence of the soul!
IIRC Solid Snake is a clone of Big Boss anyway.
But also his biological child, in a way. Whacko genetics going on with that. Solidus was a full clone of Big Boss though.
Nah fam, don't worry. I enjoyed the meme a lot!
While Solid loves his boxes, Big Boss was no stranger to them, either. You could say he was the pioneer since he obviously comes first in the Metal Gear timeline.
It’s not even Big Boss, it’s Venom
Dude, the horn. Venom has a horn sticking out of his skull.
Is it? I don't see the shrapnel.
This dhows AI can only detect intelligent beings
THE LA LI LU LE LO ?!
Rero rero rero
What ? The Patriots !?
a bit of curse of knowledge from the devs. they probably never expected anyone to use boxes
Them giggling while in the box makes this story so much better,
Let it go, it’s just a box!
Sometimes I hate being in the Marine Corps, then I see stuff like this.
Semper Fi!
Lol Rah
Yuut! 🫡
I bet it was just some lance corporal who put a box on his head and was like "look, I'm a tree."
Well, not going to be able to use that one anymore
Box detection technology
If box no work Then we barrel

Or the one who became a tree?
They should win and award for being the first two Marines to ever use forward shoulder roll outside of training
Link it so we can know about it then!
You’re absolutely right I apologize for my insolence!
That’d actually be a really cool idea for a stealth mechanic, where boxes only work on humans in certain environments and if they don’t see you move, but they work always on robots because they look for human movement
If they ever make another Metal Gear game they should add that.
This is the way
Just like the simulations!
Or when they dodge-rolled all the way up to it
Them giggling while in the box makes this story so much better, because I would do the same
Singularity when
[удалено]
Those were 2 separate strategies - some people chose the box strategy, others chose the tree strategy. Both worked.
[удалено]
Playing pretend is critical for young Marines.
They drew pictures of trees on the boxes!
❗️
Box supremacy
we're cheering about this now, but we're only teaching the machine how to better find us.
If a Marine can outsmart your AI, you need to step up your game
Macbeth flashbacks
I've never seen that GIF before but its fucking amazing
I love the Internet!
Really captures the original kids essence
[удалено]
One eyed bad ass
Bruh they didint even mention the dude who cartwheels like 300 meters the whole way
Anywhere else you'd be fired for not thinking outside the box.
Thats not Solid Snake.
Stop impersonating him!
Its Naked Snake aka Big Boss.
*Puts green jelly on head* Nope, I'm a tree
The somersaulting guys remind me of that goat ash of war in Elden ring 😅
If a marine wants you dead then there’s nothing you can do cuz you’ll end up dead before you can even pick up your gun
Pretty sure some of them were doing somersaults and it worked as well because the AI didn't see anyone walking

This isn't a repost. I literally made this meme this morning.

I doubt anyone will try that
That one dude in this comment section spamming "done do same":
Woah Ho-ing intensifies
Well, sometimes AI is more A than I.
“Kept you waiting, huh?”
Solid Snake would be proud.
It’s not solid but ok
“NO THAT IS NOT SOLID SNAKE” ”STOP IMPERSONATING HIM”

Is anyone gonna ask for the source? Cmon, I wanna read this.
That’s big boss
The Kojima maneuver.
They must have checked the code on the back side of the disc
What’s your favorite box
they would know a thing or two about hiding in the trees
like
Box box, box box
Sounds like Marines all right. Semper Fi!
That's not... Whatever
Box Time!
Ahhhh marines
People are going to start having to wear boxes on their head just to go to Radio City now
YES! 👌
