LOL StanGable I see sarcams in ur post

The MetalGear-RAY level on MGS2 was just TOO bad, these "things" are complete bullshit compared to MG-REX, u kill them too easly. Remember at the beginning of MGS2, there is 1 MG-RAY destroying a militar boat : why are u able to kill them so easly ?????????

The virus weakened them, it has the same effect as fox die.

(I just cant figure out why snake is old in MGS4? I just started MGS3, and found out its in the past, does the game ever head to the presenT?)

Snake in MGS3 is not the same Snake as the one in MGS1/2.  It's Big Boss, the main antagonist in Metal Gear 1 and 2 for the MSX.  It's a great way of giving some backstory and some reasoning for Big Bosses actions in those games.  And the story about The Boss is unbelievable.  It's relatively more straightforward story than the one presented in MGS1/2 (especially MGS2).

And no, the game doesn't head to the present.  It's all about the original Snake aka Big Boss.
