So the Boss didnt want the earth to be destroyed and chose to die, two times. 1) In 1964 she stopped the third WW. 2) In 1974 she stopped a nuclear war.
You could say she(or maybe at least the remnents of her ai pod, if it was hers) even a third time if you watch the story of survive although it was an other ai there
I've always liked Hayter's Snake voice regardless of which game he's appearing in, but I feel he arguably gives his best performance since the original Metal Gear Solid in this cutscene.
A lots of folks completely failed to grasp the knowledge about Big Boss. What looks like a salute, was him discarding The Boss's memento after listening to Strangelove's speech about The Boss's final will. If you pay perfect attention to ending number 1, Big Boss vowed to never drop his gun. He felt betrayed by The Boss as a soldier. His respect towards dwindled after witnessing Peace Walker from The Boss A.I.'s action. However, it took him decades to fully grasp an understanding what The Boss truly meant. In the end, he did drop his gun, but he also helped Old Snake drop his before he makes a same mistake he did. He wanted Snake to stop and live normal to the end, something he never had in his life. All his life was being a soldier. In '84, he Sold the World alright. He sold the traitors around him. Kaz working for Cipher behind his back, Paz was a double agent and betrayed Big Boss, Huey sold Big Boss and the MSF out, the Government used him to kill The Boss and discarded him, and his comrades (Signit, Dr. Clark and Zero) betrayed him. His only trusted allies are Dr. Madner, Naomi, Gray Fox, Eva, Ocelot, and even Venom Snake. His men from the MSF days were loyal to him. Which is why Medic, Venon Snake, was chosen to due to his loyalty and a suppose candidate for the next Big Boss when they (Kaz and Big Boss) originally wanted to expand and needed someone to be their Eyes, Ears, and Mouth of Big Boss. Once Venom came to the realization at the end of MGSV (guns in the background are his soldiers fighting Solid Snake), he was distraught at first. But then, instead of being angry, he smirked and wanted to go through it as he believes in Big Boss and being one is an honor for the surviving MSF soldier.
Peace Walker is certainly one of the most underrated Metal Gear games, IMO. Though fighting wacky robots is certainly a bizarre thing to have happen in the in-game 70's, it still doesn't take away from its great storytelling. Personally, I love it!
Exactly he stops his clone son from making the same damn mistake he made aka the SINS OF THE FATHER something liquid and Soldus failed at which thanks to snake father soild succeeded in over surpassing his dad a perfect come full circle it’s why I love MGS4 ending the son surpassing the tragic father theme If only attack on titans continued to take this lesson onto its ending and you know eren Yeager his would have been baby-child to be FREE from his and his daddys F Ups but that’s a whole another story in itself lmfao Well atleast Star Wars Episode 6 however did get this right as well
@@thatjrpganimefanplayerjusi8003 I mean if anything I’d say the ending for 4 is pretty terrible. Snake already had his arc to begin loving life and 4 just made it seem like he hated it suddenly. On the other hand big boss is shown to be a complete nihilist who has no value for life and suddenly pulls a full 180 on his personality unprompted. If anything it should have been solid giving big boss a talk that makes him value life
This is probably the most emotional scene I've ever seen in a video game.....no, any form of media. The level of feels is up to 11 here and I was damn near in tears.
Man... I watched it again and ended up shedding a tear I thought I was an emotionless bastard glad to see something as special as this franchise can me me cry I’ll love this game to the very end
Please go watch the ending to Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core... it's definitely up there in saddest endings in video game history. Truthfully, this ending made Peace Walker my favorite MGS game.
In my opinion definitely one of the saddest endings in games. I actually kind of broke down due to what I was going through at the time and seeing the boss sacrificing herself one last time just broke me
personally i feel strongly about this ending. It simply masterfully done. A true send off to the boss and one last prayer to teach us that we are all one small blue jewel across the infinite.
...the saddest part for me has to be 11:25 . Huey's realization of Peace Walker's sentience hits harder after you consider what became of him in MGSV. *_"It's just a machine!"_*
When Venom enters the room, Huey thinks it's a normal soldier approaching him...maybe that's his intention to say : "it's just a machine", because he wouldnt share his true believes to a random guy. Huey was an asshole, but it does not mean that he put down his true believes for good...he wouldnt have killed himself if he truly believed that everything he did was good and right
Man... 5:57 got me by the heart so hard and then It proceeds to "STOP IT, DON'T JUST SIT THERE, STOP IT" It got me so hyped in this scene, Hayter is the best
It's sad when you think about it, here The Boss expresses that she just want peace (or the illusion of one since peace is kind of impossible considering human nature). But Big Boss only saw it as betrayal to their ideals, the ideal of a soldier, to live and die by war. His ambitions and his own goals blinded him of what The Boss wanted and he doesn't realize how misguided he was until decades later when he sees the aftermath of MGS4.
@@ace9924 There's a big difference betwee Solid and The Boss though. The Boss was extremely loyal to her country and to the mission. She sacrificed everything for America's sake, not the world. The Boss wasn't female Jesus, she said it herself that, although she'd love to have a world where everyone would just get along and not fight, she is willing to give everything, including her life, for the sake of her nation and the mission. She even killed the father of her child (the Sorrow) for the mission. Solid Snake is a man who fought for freedom. He fought to liberate the world from the control of the Patriots. He was never as committed to his country as the Boss was. Truth is, the Boss danced at the strings of the Patriots of her era (the Philosophers) without ever doing anything to defy their will because "loyalty to her country". Big Boss' mistake that made everything go downhill for him was keeping the nuke he found in the remains of the Peace Walker. If he hadn't done that, Cipher would've left him alone. His obsession with Metal Gears and nukes are what caused his downfall.
@@theazureknight9399 I guess we can blame Huey and Strangelove huh? No I don't think that he simply had an obsession for nukes and metal gears, there was more to it. He became infatuated with false ideals of a true utopia that was never meant to be (Outerheaven, countries for soldiers) due to his experience with nations tossing away spent soldiers like garbage, like his very own idol the Boss. This added with his experiences in Metal Gear Portable Ops where he first learns of the first iteration of a country for soldiers by Gene attempting to make his own military state by convincing the starving and dying left behind Soviet Red Army garrison in San Hieronymo. Gene asked Snake to join his country, Snake refused ofc and beat Gene but that encounter stuck with him into Peacewalker where eventually he did break into the mercenary business and slowly to the events of Ground Zeroes and beyond his ideals of an "Outerheaven" became more twisted and wrong until he realized he messed up at around Metal Gear Solid 4 where we see him as a withering old man that dies of natural causes(?) or FOXDIE idfk. Metal Gear fans arguing about Metal Gear ideals of characters lore.
@@rune.theocracy I played Portable Ops (great game btw) and yes, he got the Outer Heaven ideal for Gene. The thing is, had he not gotten himself that nuke and ZEKE, which is a walking nuclear platform, he would've gone down in history as a famous mercenary and nothing more. He wouldn't have become the world's boogey man like in the original series. Without a nuke, Cipher would've left him alone since he wouldn't be a threat to them. And also, since they have the sons, it would be redundant to keep trying to bring Big Boss back into their organization. Skull Face would also have no reason to attack Mother Base because, again, a non nuclear PMC is not a threat to them. MSF would just be another mercenary group, a highly successful one at that, but still just that.
I like to think that the peace signs showing up over NORAD were transmitted by Peace Walker. That The Boss, with the last of her strength, sent a final message to the world... a wish for peace.
What's so great about this moment, in my opinion, is that you never see it coming. At first when you hear the weird mechanical sounds and the melody, you're like WTF? But then the dialogues about the Boss's choice to lay down her weapons and just sing for the "illusion of peace" come, and you just can't help but get hit right in the feels. Honestly, I'm glad they put this game in the HD collection so I could play it, because I would have never gotten to see this ending. Easily one of my favorite endings to a Metal Gear Solid game.
Chapter 4 ending: Tosses the bandana away and says: "From now on, call me Big Boss." Chapter 5: Has the bandana back and everybody still calls him Snake. :D
Benjamin m It should have been. The whole 'Zadornov escaping 7 times' thing was fucking ridiculous. It was almost as though this WAS the ending, and then at the very last minute they realised they wanted to do another game and had to tie this in with it, so they added the [SPOILERS AHEAD] Paz and metal gear ZEKE fight.
I wish there was an isolated soundtrack for the robotic version of “Sing” the Boss AI sings and the “la la la la” part played throughout the cutscene here. It’s so beautiful and was what introduced me to the song, Joe Raposo, and the Carpenters. It doesn’t sound like Karen Carpenter’s version or Joe Raposo’s.
I recall the singer was Cindy Asada. However, her vocals for this were not officially released. Maybe Konami still has the rights, or the Carpenters' recording company whoever the recording company for this game was.
Holy shit I just realized that peace walker drowning itself to save the world is symbolic of the boss pretty much letting naked snake defeat her… Even though she made it look like she was trying to win. Kind of goes against everything she was preaching about before she died. I see why Big Boss got pissed about it
People always say that Yoji Shinkawa's MGS artstyle is great. But Ashley Wood, the artist for the cutscenes in MGSPO and MGSPW deserve some credit too.
"Jesus... Coldman guessed wrong! THEY'RE GONNA GO THROUGH WITH IT!!!" Even if you know there's no way the MGS world is ending on a prequel, you can really feel the sheer horror when Congress decides to give through with the nuke launch. Even worse because they all react like people faced with the complete wipeout of their families, people, culture, etc.
For me, this is one of the best scenes of video game history. I remember the tension during all the boss fight. And i remember crying just like i´m crying right now. "that there´s beauty outside of battle"
Honestly, the game should've ended here. It was a beautiful ending. Snake finally accepts the name "Big Boss" and discards the bandanna - his last attachment to The Boss - and moves forward on his own path in life. Paved a nice way towards MG1 or MGS5. ...but then Chapter 5 gets tacked on. Big Boss is back being called "Snake" and his bandanna is magically back on his head. Gameplay consists of re-fighting bosses and waiting for the Professor to break out of the prison SEVEN TIMES! And all you get out of it is a lame fight with Paz, which probably won't serve any real purpose in MGS5 considering her fate in Ground Zeroes.
if you play ground zeroes without knowing what happened in chapter 5 then you don't know what's going on in ground zeroes so it's pretty basic for MGS5
Over 10 years ago that this came out and this still gets to me. I miss the Boss... a will and mind, so strong that it even manages to make a machine take on her ideals to save the world.
LMAO when the cutscene flashed at 3:08, it played an ad for me and the transition was too hilarious.. "Then put him on! *"NEW DIGIORNO'S HOMEMADE PIZZA!"*
In my eyes this is the true ending and Dr Strangelove never died in my headcanon cause her ending was too fucked up for a character with so much potential and purpose as hers.
man, after the whole debarcle of metal gear soplid 5 and the peace chapter, its surreal coming back, the pieces were here all along, "there's no peace to fiound, anywhere, we can only keep on hoping, hoping for the illusion we call peace"
u know i just wanted to come back here to hear that song again even if there's at least one weekly live for pw. metal gear is and will always be the best series ever made for me, a true labor of love and passion and so a masterpiece. been stuck with me for years and knowing and having played anything related to it i just want... more... but in the end we all know if that ever happens it won't be the same, maybe it's better if we just let it die.
I really love Peace Walker. This game was made with a purpose, the redemption of The Boss for her "sins". Absolutely made with love. For me, next to MGS3, it is my best Metal Gear!!
@@juanlaise1059 More than that, the communications with Big Boss were spotty. Anyone could claim to be Big Boss, and even the Chairman could have been compromised or a double agent. In the panic of the moment, I wouldn't be surprised if their thought processes easily rationalized their actions as "the Chairman's deffo in kahoots with this guy who's trying to stop the nukes which could kill us all, he's definitely compromised!"
+AMAZIAH I know it wasn't that bad but you pointed more less of what i meant out, peace walker jus had a more impactful ending to me and its disappointing that it wasn't that impacting in mgsv considering its on a console too.
After bearing the emotions of pain and agony Kiefer did, I really wanna hear him in Peace Walker with Hayter voicing Big Boss in MGS3 with his normal voice.
This ending will always make me cry. Just the fact that it's only the AI, a remnant of The Boss, it still carried her ideas and made me tear up when it destroyed itself in the water along with the song.
There will never be another game like peace walker, MGSV was the only chance and they blew It, even the collaborative monster hunter missions were far far more detailed and cared for than anything in V ever was. Feels bad man
Really does. Good to know there are other people who found V massively disappointing. One of those cases when the game was good, as a game. But as a MGS game - utterly pathetic.
Okay, when it comes to gameplay, it's pretty hard to decide which MG is the best but when it comes to story, it's extremely easy: 1. Snake Eater 2. Peace Walker 3. MGS
5:55 David Hayter delivered some amazing lines here. Say what you want about his performance in the rest of the game being too gravely but this is amazing.
Everybody is talking about the AI, The Boss, how Snake felt and shit... But let me ask you a question: where did Snake pull out that phone from? Did he carry a stationary phone to the battlefield? If that is so, where the hell did he plug it?
It feels kinda sad how I had no idea about the plot when I first played this or ever had played MGS3 back then so all The Boss stuff ended up having pretty much no meaning to me even after I'm aware of it :(
This is one of the most serious scenes of mgs and best climaxes of any videogame but the idea of Big Boss the fictional character calling the Federal Government and preventing WMD retaliation is hilarious.
I think, when The Boss went to space.. she looked down on Earth and saw it all as one. Probably why she said, in 1964 "There's no such thing as a timeless enemy." Something about people being our enemy in relative terms. So she sacrificed herself to save humanity from itself. ..if that makes sense. Am I wrong?
This may be David Hayter's greatest performance
And final..
@@MetaMikeG 😭😭
Mgs 1 remake is coming
I say it’s one of his worst. I think MGS1 is by far his best.
@@alexdeghost2729 lmao how is this his worst, you deaf or something
So the Boss didnt want the earth to be destroyed and chose to die, two times.
1) In 1964 she stopped the third WW.
2) In 1974 she stopped a nuclear war.
Even in death. A hero.
And them heroes never admit to being that.
The Boss’ innocence has been proven to the world. Her song is beautiful (Sheds a tear of Patriotism, Salutes in Victory)
@Die Ritter We know, but still ...
You could say she(or maybe at least the remnents of her ai pod, if it was hers) even a third time if you watch the story of survive although it was an other ai there
There are genuine moments of the old magic in hayters voice in this
Declan Hampson "Boss... is that you?"
+Gage Mitchell I feel his voice shouldn't be that old tho.
Stop it...
Don't just sit there! STOP IT!
*SCREAM* *ORGASM* * DEATH*
God I miss MGS.

In metal Gear 5.
Is the fact that he throw his bandana the reason why we don't see him with it in Ground Zeroes?
I love how this scene showed Strangelove's former hatred of Big Boss to her respect of him throughout this incident
Right in the feels.

@@jpk9902 the problem was Konami trying to milk the hell of the franchise and I guess going beyond peace walker was going to far.
The Boss, such an important character. And always has the most emotional moments...
This is still one of the greatest climaxes in all of video game history.
This is the ending of the Main Story, so is still part of the true ending.
+GTA Yep, cause Big Boss doesn't wear the Boss's bandanna in Ground Zeroes.
True ending is the canon one to ground zeroes because of how it continues on with its events and explains them. No spoilers though.
Both of them are canon. But the first ending is not the "True Ending" but it isn't a "False Ending" per se, it's only the ending of a story arc.

5:58 gives me chills. I really thought I'd fucked up and got a bad ending at first.
Aside from Snake Eater this is one of the best ending for an MGS Game , and Kojima's view for Peace
watching the mammal pod kill itself was just like losing the boss all over again

Agreed. Would of been better if they just ended it here.
if you play ground zeroes without knowing what happened in chapter 5 then you don't know what's going on in ground zeroes so it's pretty basic for MGS5
I didn't even know there was another ending O.o
First lets not nuke Russia 2end snakes opinon changes in MGS4 so look before you leap
doesn't matter how many times i watch this, it always makes me cry no matter what.
One of the best endings to any game ever made.
Well if we go by MGS4, he finally understands The Boss' will before he dies. So no, in the end he doesn't see her as a traitor.
Dont mind me, I'm just here to cry my eyes out one more time.
Over 10 years ago that this came out and this still gets to me. I miss the Boss... a will and mind, so strong that it even manages to make a machine take on her ideals to save the world.
LMAO when the cutscene flashed at 3:08, it played an ad for me and the transition was too hilarious..
"Then put him on!
*"NEW DIGIORNO'S HOMEMADE PIZZA!"*
Lmfao that's brilliant
"i know where my loyalty belong"
damn i crying hear that
5:57
This, Hayter should have voiced BigBoss/VenomSnake on MGS V !
I think this is the most emotionally moving ending of any Metal Gear Game, I've cried to this more than once or twice
Reptile took up mammal's dying wish. One boss, one snake
creating a heaven for soldiers.
outer heaven
In my eyes this is the true ending
and Dr Strangelove never died in my headcanon
cause her ending was too fucked up for a character
with so much potential and purpose as hers.
man, after the whole debarcle of metal gear soplid 5 and the peace chapter, its surreal coming back, the pieces were here all along,
"there's no peace to fiound, anywhere, we can only keep on hoping, hoping for the illusion we call peace"
This made Me cry Thank You Boss... o7
I love Peace Walker, such a fun game.
u know i just wanted to come back here to hear that song again even if there's at least one weekly live for pw.
metal gear is and will always be the best series ever made for me, a true labor of love and passion and so a masterpiece.
been stuck with me for years and knowing and having played anything related to it i just want... more...
but in the end we all know if that ever happens it won't be the same, maybe it's better if we just let it die.
I really love Peace Walker. This game was made with a purpose, the redemption of The Boss for her "sins". Absolutely made with love. For me, next to MGS3, it is my best Metal Gear!!
the peace walker theme is truly amazing
este final fue el mas epico que vi en mi vida, en su momento valio la pena comprar una psp (por segunda vez) solo por este juego
The absolute tragedy of MGS, the boss's last will was never found until MGS4.
7:15- best scream ever
even after he's fired denied his reword and had to start his own company he still continues to speak to us from beyond the grave
4:50 , 5:48 , 6:22 What in God's name are those guys thinking!? Why don't they believe the Chairman, or Big Boss?!
Joseph Barnes
Well, they think they are about to die. That makes most people to be unreasonable and suspicious of anyone. They don't think straight.
@@juanlaise1059 More than that, the communications with Big Boss were spotty.
Anyone could claim to be Big Boss, and even the Chairman could have been compromised or a double agent.
In the panic of the moment, I wouldn't be surprised if their thought processes easily rationalized their actions as "the Chairman's deffo in kahoots with this guy who's trying to stop the nukes which could kill us all, he's definitely compromised!"
For me this will always be the true ending of the serie, anything else is not needed.
Done using Stop Motion Comic panels but still a better ending than mgsv...
+Leafstormblaze billyt It isn't even that bad. But yes peace walkers has a better ending do to impact.
+AMAZIAH I know it wasn't that bad but you pointed more less of what i meant out, peace walker jus had a more impactful ending to me and its disappointing that it wasn't that impacting in mgsv considering its on a console too.
damn, mgsv doesn't even has a proper ending, the game is unfinished and will never be
I cried at this part
After bearing the emotions of pain and agony Kiefer did, I really wanna hear him in Peace Walker with Hayter voicing Big Boss in MGS3 with his normal voice.
This ending will always make me cry. Just the fact that it's only the AI, a remnant of The Boss, it still carried her ideas and made me tear up when it destroyed itself in the water along with the song.
Hasta la fecha sigue siendo uno de mis MGS favoritos, todos supimos lo difícil que fue para Snake dejar ir a Boss ):
I got so many more feels out of this ending than 3's.
There will never be another game like peace walker, MGSV was the only chance and they blew It, even the collaborative monster hunter missions were far far more detailed and cared for than anything in V ever was. Feels bad man
Really does. Good to know there are other people who found V massively disappointing. One of those cases when the game was good, as a game. But as a MGS game - utterly pathetic.
For me the story of big boss ends here
@@ace9924 Agreed. And what a beautiful way of ending it, paying respects to The Boss on the process
Damn, everytime i cry...
Means that you are a great human being inside. I am proud for you.
R.I.P MGS series
It's increbile how this game is incredible...
am i the only one trying to find an audio clip of The Boss's singing alone?
Brice Cox no same here but its hard to find unless digging though the games files
it's called "sing a song"
@@anasalsaadi3813 Sing a song? Where?
In the end... it was you who put down your gun... and chose instead to sing... ~'Strangelove (12:20)
14:03 the feels
07:22 am I the only one who feels bad for peace walker? It looks like an animal in considerable pain
It's the Boss herself in pain.
She became a martyr twice, in death and in the afterlife.
Love this game ! But here a scary truth the false reading can happen and did happen once
Okay, when it comes to gameplay, it's pretty hard to decide which MG is the best but when it comes to story, it's extremely easy:
1. Snake Eater
2. Peace Walker
3. MGS
Maybe they call this “false” ending because Snake rejected it and became Big Boss. To him the “true” ending up until the end of MGS4 is Outer Heaven.
i cry wiht this and metal gear solid 3 end really😭
Miller's voice is iconic
*Literally gave me goosebumps...*
5:55
This is the moment.
5:55 David Hayter delivered some amazing lines here. Say what you want about his performance in the rest of the game being too gravely but this is amazing.
I cried when the Boss's ghost was singing and saved the day
Everybody is talking about the AI, The Boss, how Snake felt and shit...
But let me ask you a question: where did Snake pull out that phone from? Did he carry a stationary phone to the battlefield? If that is so, where the hell did he plug it?
Loc It was the phone from Strangelove's van, most likely hooked up inside.
He has a codec
@@SayanDasezioauditore right
Sometimes I like to make myself a cup of tea, get in a blanket and pretend MGSV doesn’t exist
I feel you man
But hey, at least it's not MG Survive, now that's something
ok boomer
@@pazortegaFGC I’m a millennial
@@rogehmarbinot really... Survive as an spinoff can be completely ignored but V... a lot of people really defend that game
why it say a false ending. to me, it is real official ending
It feels kinda sad how I had no idea about the plot when I first played this or ever had played MGS3 back then so all The Boss stuff ended up having pretty much no meaning to me even after I'm aware of it :(
Even in death... The Boss was still a hero
His Snake is Solid God damnit, you're everywhere.
Yuri Lowenthaal is prolific. He's everywhere.
Essentially that ending speech is where he lost his mind
Saying choosing peace betrayal and claiming the title he was refusing up to this point
la parte que hace llorar
I had this game it was truly awsome
This is one of the most serious scenes of mgs and best climaxes of any videogame but the idea of Big Boss the fictional character calling the Federal Government and preventing WMD retaliation is hilarious.
I think, when The Boss went to space.. she looked down on Earth and saw it all as one. Probably why she said, in 1964 "There's no such thing as a timeless enemy."
Something about people being our enemy in relative terms. So she sacrificed herself to save humanity from itself. ..if that makes sense. Am I wrong?
The Boss gotta be like, "DAMMIT!! HOW MANY TIMES I GOTTA SAVE YOUR SORRY ASSES!?.. I'M DEAD AND STILL SAVING THE DAY!
