This would be truly interesting and considering in MGS3 we were able to see Big Boss' change in posture/movements whenever he got injured, a progressing aging or decaying effect for Snake might possibly appear in MGS4.

Well couldn't it have been possible that Snake was sort of in "retirement" before he got picked up by Campbell to go back in the game in MGS4? Perhaps in the meantime he just wanted to sport a new look and this was the result.

Yeah, just do what Carlito said and you should find it. Sorry, I should've made the instructions clearer.

Wait, but I thought Snake's Revenge was dismissed by Kojima as not being part of the storyline because Snake's Revenge was sort of like the bastard child in the canon. Am I wrong? O_O;;;

Gray Fox is also a very good possibility but I don't know about Fortune...wouldn't it seem appropriate if it were Raiden to visit her grave instead, since Snake wasn't really involved during that time? Well anyway, I think I like the idea of it being Solidus since MGS4 seems to focus on the cursed bloodline and all.
