he has gotten really old during the war but the origins are unknown
big boss
No he's not. In the infant terrible project snake is cloned from one of big boss's cells. Big Boss n his older years has the same appearance of solidus snake. Solid snakes genes are NOT exact copy's of Big Boss.
Naked Snake (Big Boss) is the person that Solid Snake was cloned after. Though genetically similar, they are still different people.
jack is the known as big boss or naked snake and is the main character of mgs3 he is also the father of david (solid snake) because he was such a good agent they cloned him and the clone of jack were liquid snake and solid snake
solid snake like in MGS1 but he is refered to Old Snake now.(He went through an accelerated ageing proccess
Technically both, even though they are different people. Naked Snake was the main character in Snake Eater (which took place in 1964). Solid Snake is the main character in most of the others, and he was born in 1972. Naked Snake later became Big Boss. Solid, Liquid, and Solidus Snake were all cloned off of him in the Les Enfante Terribles (Terrible Children) Project. Solid Snake is the main character and hero in the series, though. Big Boss was the main character in a few of them to give backstory.
yeah and so is solid snake dude
if solid snake ( MGS1 , MG2 , MGS4 ) , he was born form Big Mama a.k.a EVE in MGS3 . in MGS3 its naked snake , not solid snake . the game story actually started from MGS3 . then continues MGS1 , MGS2 , MGS4 .
actually there are 3 snakes in the mgs series: Solid Snake,Liquid Snake,and Solidus Snake. 4 if u count Big Boss
Solid Snake's real name is David.*SPOILER*His real name and true origin are revealed during Snake's confrontation with Big Mama (EVA) in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots.

On the previous briefing on the Shadow Moses mission, Snake is told he looks exactly like the enemy's comander, who's code name is actually Snake too. That's why Snake changes his codename to Solid Snake, and in order to not be confused with Liquid Snake, he takes a piece of fabric from his pants and uses it as a bandana. After Shadow Moses incident, Snake uses it as a lucky charm
