Looks like they found a way to bring Solid Snake back once again, except this time he's a ghost? That deserves and explanation doesn't it? Let's start from the beginning then, as this might take a while. First, in just a few days starting on March 12th until April the 3rd, IF you are a PS3 owner you will be able to download your first content for your Metal Gear Rising Revengeance game. It won't cost you a thing, and here is what you'll be getting for your free download soon. How about 30 brand new VR missions, some will be for Raiden, while some others will be using those handy little Gekko robots you see throughout the game. There is even a trailer that was just released a couple of days ago that demonstrates some nice action on both character formats if you want to give it a good watching.
Next is the really cool part, this is actually where Solid Snake plays a role in Rising Revengeance, something that took us all by surprise and thought we would never see happen, and yet it did. That is of course, within an incorporeal state of mind in this case simply because it's only the voice of Solid Snake, as if he is a ghost or something? At least that's the official story from what I've seen. Let me explain, among this new downloadable content is a special "wooden" katana (yes, I said wooden) sword called Hebidamashii, or "Snake Spirit", that after Raiden equips it, he can receive comments from Solid Snake himself, who compliments Raiden when fighting well, and asks about his condition when he gets hurt. Since this is in Japanese, a fellow on YouTube posted what Solid Snake was saying in the trailer below. Here it is......
"When he's fighting he's saying stuff like 'not bad' and when he gets hurt 'are you alright?"

"Last part is 'This isn't training. It's a fight that costs life and death. Theres no heroes or heroine either. Losing is a dogs death"
So that about wraps things up for this new content for you PS3 owners. I wonder when Xbox360 owners are going to get a taste? Hopefully not too long I should think. Let me know what you think about that new trailer below that showcases this new content. Not too shabby?
