  1. (No sources were used (other than the games), this is all from my memory.)

    Sorry, but we need sources. As outlined in the guidelines, sources ultimately make our job easier.

    OK, I've corrected it and added some info:

    Naked Snake/Big Boss

    Konami & Kojima Productions

    1987-2006

    Background:

    Naked Snake (aka Jack) was born in the 1930s, as a Japanese-Caucasian American in Hawaii. In 1942, the entire American side of his family was killed and the Japanese side taken to concentration camps. In 1945, Snake joined an infantry unit to combat Nazis in France, and returned to America after the war ends. A few years later, in 1950, he joined The Boss as her disciple, and she then left him for a top secret mission in 1959.

    In 1964 (5 years, 72 days, and 18 hours after The Boss left him), Snake took part in FOX's Virtuous Mission (MGS3), to rescue Sokolov, a Soviet scientist being held captive, and escort him to America. However, Sokolov was kidnapped again when The Boss defected to the Soviet Union. A new operation was set up, Operation Snake Eater, and Snake had to return to Soviet Russia, recapture Sokolov and kill The Boss. After surviving the mission, he was given the title Big Boss.

    In 1970, rogue members of FOX started a revolt (MPO). To prove his innocence, Big Boss had to hunt down and kill the FOX members. To this end, FOXHOUND was formed. FOXHOUND was a unit of elite operatives that were given missions of top priority.

    In 1972, Big Boss became injured in the Vietnam war and fell into a coma. During this time, he was cloned (the 'Les Enfants Terribles' project), from which Solid Snake, Liquid Snake and Solidus Snake were created.

    Big Boss would go on to create Outer Heaven, the terrorist facility that was infiltrated and destroyed by his clone, Solid Snake, in 1995 (MG), and then Zanzibar Land in 1999 (MG2), where Solid Snake ended Big Boss's life once and for all.

    In 2005, FOXHOUND, now a terrorist group led by Liquid Snake, took over a military base in Alaska (MGS), demanding that the US Government turn over the remains of the now legendary Big Boss, or they would use the bipedal tank Metal Gear REX to launch a nuclear strike on America.

    Appearances:

    Metal Gear (NES/MSX2, 1987)

    Snake's Revenge (NES, 1990, not canon)

    Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake (MSX2, 1990)

    Metal Gear Solid (PS, 1998)

    Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (PS2, 2004)

    Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence (PS2, 2006)

    Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops (PSP, 2006)
