Bar a genuinely touching Snake/Big Boss reunion, it features a scene with Raiden (complete with stitched-on arms) cuddling his lost son, plus the wedding of Johnny Sasaki and Meryl. It ties up *all* of the series' loose ends in almost an hour of cut-scenes. MGS4: Guns of the Patriots, released in 2008, is the series chronological finale set in 2014. The Wachowski Brothers spectacular 'alternate ending' to The Matrix: Path of Neo is the best example, where existential questions are replaced by a boss battle with a giant robot Agent Smith – before a party in Zion to Queen's 'We Are The Champions'. The inverse scenario is when creators give their fans *exactly* what they want to make the reverse point. I'd happily see George Lucas imprisoned for the Star Wars prequels, but I defend his right to make an atrocity. Whether creators truly own their work, or it belongs to fans, isn't the core issue.
