How old is he?
I'm guessing 30 something but is an exact age given?
He is a video game character not a real person so he doesn't have an age
>>332532193
30? I know he's had a hard life, but he looks 40-50 (which I think he's meant to be at that point)
>>332532303
I was unsure because, and this is an actual major spoilerHe isn't big boss, he's his stunt double, big boss I assume is 10 years or so older
Kojima fucked up by not giving him grey hair after the coma
>>332532193
>30 something
you most be 18 or older to browse on this site.
OP here.
Napkin math makes him 47 at the youngest.
I assumed he was younger because his hair isn't greying and he's fit af.
>>332532747
Being fit doesn't have as much to do with age as people think. People do ironmans when they're in their 80s.
>>332532193
He is 49 in Phantom Pain.
He is 40 in Ground Zeroes
He is 39 in Peace Walker.
He is 29 in Snake Eater.
Big Boss was born in 1935, so 84-35 = 49.
But you actually don't play as Big Boss
Is Big Boss the most attractive video game protag in history? Not even gay, but I admire his manliness.

How do I stay /fit/ and handsome at that age and get qt sidekicks?
>>332532980
This. Just do the math, he was 29 in Snake Eater and that game takes place in 1964. TPP is 1984.

at 50? Just do the same shit you would do at 20 or 30. At 50 if you take care of yourself, the only thing that might be an issue is some achy joints.
When muscle and bone starts to break down at roughly 70 is when the real problems start occurring. Even then, with a solid routine, you should still be able to stay strong until at least 80 before the degradation becomes too much.
>>332533131
Gotta constantly work on your body
>get qt sidekicks
be a passion filled man in an industry that has a lot of new, younger employ

Just keep working out for the rest of your life like you're never grew any older than 25. You can maintain most of your muscle mass throughout your life, and in fact, doing so will make your elderly days much more enjoyable.
>>332532513The real Big Boss has Venom's passport (you see the name you put in on it) when he's talking to Ocelot and leaves on the motorcycle, and date of birth actually puts Venom at being 2 years older than Big Boss.
He doesn't have a specified age
He was probably somewhat young in Peace Walker since he was their ace soldier with a bright future in the War Economy, then they mutilated and artificially aged him into BB
>>332533363
>2 years older
>Because we experienced 2 MGS games more than Big Boss has.
Oh yeah, what was all that shit about making an avatar?
I remember making one and never seeing/using him in the entire game.
>>332533351
'can' and 'most' are really ambiguous/misleading terms.
That oldfag you posted probably works out a LOT harder than he would have had to when he was 25 to maintain what he's got.
And he WILL decline. Everyone does, some quicker than others.

Thanks m8's will do.
Though if I lose my hairline I'm fooked.
Venoms a handsome motherfucker for his age, even his skin is nice for his age despite him being in wars all the time.
>>332533709
That guys a doctor that prescribed himself GH, not that that's a bad thing at that age, I'm glad he's doing well.
Anybody who cries "durr drugs! cheating!" at people who don't want to get old and shuffle off are fucking idiots.
If modern science allows us to take drugs to stay healthier/youthful for longer, then do it.
>>332533709
Yes, entropy's a bitch. But the thing about entropy is that you can stave it off by doing work.
>>332533758
It's almost like he recently had plastic surgery.
>medic is the exact same age as big boss

>Just keep working out for the rest of your life like you're never grew any older than 25. You can maintain most of your muscle mass throughout your life, and in fact, doing so will make your elderly days much more enjoyable.
The hair is a big age indicator though.
Punished Snake should have grey hair, your beard greys a lot quicker than your hair so his beard should be mostly grey.
Is he the type of person to dye it to look younger?
>>332533863
Testosterone is standard treatment for men in their 60s and older these days, pretty much. Our generation is gonna be lifting weights until our second twenties. Yes, we're gonna have a second twenties.
>>332533863
>prescribed 'sself GH
He can do that?!
>>332534034
This sounds like a /fit/ meme.
>>332533935
They're not that good, my man.
>>332534034
Test is different from GH, real actual GH is rare and expensive, I take GHRPs myself as well as SARMs, but lucky me a doctor prescribed me some.
>second twenties
Give it to me, baby.
>>332534126
Yes, I've even met one that prescribed himself amphetamines and Viagra.

he's not in any of those games except PP
GZ we only hear his voice

I've actually seen an older (60's) guy flirt amazingly well with younger girls to the point where I think he'd get to bang them who matches this description.
They didn't know his background (ie: rich) so it's something he sort of "had" but it was amazing to see, just the charm, confidence, boldness in how he'd talk. Plus he wasn't a geezer.
