So, I just bought mgs v on the xbox games sale and I noticed the big "V" on the front cover with the space cut out of it looked just like a weird looking exclamation mark or like two exclamation marks combined.

This is super dumb and it makes me laugh. I'm guessing everyone saw this right? I cant take the game seriously at all now haha.

Yes, roughly five years ago.

But you just bought the game, so, it's understandable.

I just reinstalled the game today and was like: "huh..did I notice that that V was 2 exclamation marks before?..." Its such a coincidence you posted this today hahah.

So, im honestly not sure I noticed when it just came out but I did just happen to notice it today xD

I think this actualy ties in incredibly well with mgs vs themes of having differing interpretations of the same thing now that I think about it. Is the V in mgsV supposed to signify that its the 5th metal gear solid?(but it isnt even, its like the 6th) Is it supposed to just be the letter V for venom. or "V for victory"/Peace. OR like you just pointed out 2 exclamation marks merging into one....which you could also interpret as having meaning regarding mgs V xD OR it could be all of those things, none of em exclude the other. Its all on you how you see it.

Kinda like how everyone interprets the boss's will differently.

Can't say I did - I must have always been too distracted thinking the side profile of Snake kinda looks like Dan lol

@bakoomerang: I'd like to think that if i browsed this game in the store or blockbuster (when those were a thing) then i probably would have caught it. I preordered and picked it up day one.. but yeah i usually have an eye for this stuff. Missed it.
