5) Sniper Wolf - with a compelling backstory and an epic boss fight, Wolf makes the list
4) Gray Fox - mysterious and tortured, Gray Fox lends pathos to the series
3) Revolver Ocelot - makes the list just for his longevity and different incarations
2) Solid Snake - a no-nonsense, honorable soldier with a gravelly voice for the ages
1) The Boss - one of the best and most nuanced characters in video game history, period
Unfortunately, Metal Gear Solid 4 kind of hurt a lot of candidates...
