Old Snake isn't prematurely greying in Ground Zeroes, according to Kojima

After a barrage of tweets from avid fans, Hideo Kojima responded in form on his official Twitter page.

According to Kojima-san, the grey hair that Snake sported after removing his goggle was because of the game engine's effects. Specifically, it was due to the rim-lighting.

"Saw many tweet about Snake in grey hair after taking off the goggle. This is due to the rim-lighting."

Included with the tweet was a big picture of Snake with half of his face in the effect and the other half out of it. So, he's not so old after all. With this in mind, where do you think Ground Zeroes actually takes place in the series? Or, more specifically, when?

     Why on earth would you not get a game just because it's multiplat, I'm pretty certain Kijima won't limit it.

    It's multiplat because Konami has been demanding it be. They pay the bills. Kojima might be high on the totem pole but he's only one man. He made the Engine so he could put the games he makes on multiple platforms easier and get on with the process of making games rather than the less popular politics of porting them.
