Metal Gear Solid - Meryl Silverburgh

(Sorry if my english isn't perfect)

Did you know that Meryl Silverburgh first appeared in another Hideo Kojima game called Policenauts, never released outside of Japan ?

Metal Gear Solid 1


Policenauts


She was also voiced by the same japanese voice actress in both games : Kyoko Terase

Of course, there's a lot lot more references to other games, Kojima really loves to do that (for example, The Rat Patrol 01 of MGS4, led by Meryl have several characters in it like Jonathan and Ed. In fact it's the name of the 2 protagonists of Policenauts, Jonathan Ingram and Ed Brown), I'm just putting out the most obvious one.

She was also going to be a teenage, but Kojima took it out because he did not understand how a teenager could use a Desert Eagle accurately and effectively, so he made her an adult.

I never saw this anywhere. You're sure of this ? For me, she's already a teenager in MGS1 since she was born in late 80s and the Shadow Moses Incident took place during 2005, she was like 17-18.
