Top 20 Gayest Video Game Characters - #14
14. Major Ivan Raidenovitch Raikov – Metal Gear Solid 3
This is an interesting one, and one that is up for much debate, but if you look close at the details you’ll see why this guy is gayer than a goose. First off, he is almost identical to Raiden, who’s own sexual preference is under raging debate on the Internet. (I won’t even go into the name Solid Snake right now) so in a way he is Raidens’ alter Ego, a parody of Raiden, if you will. Then there’s his relationship with Colonel Volgin…at one point, our hero Solid Snake is disguised as Raikov. Volgin grabs Snakes’ crotch twice, thus revealing the charade. Volgin then exclaims “I know the Major better than anyone else.”
Then, in the online mode of Subsistence, you can play Raikov, who’s special move is a massive crotch grab that renders his opponent stunned. And of course, who could overlook his very feminine looks, voice and fighting style. Because of his military career, his true sexuality is on a don’t ask, don’t tell basis, but all the clues add up to GAY

- 12. Vamp – Metal Gear Solid Series
It seems like Metal gear Solid is just rife with gay characters! From Raidens’ highly disputed sexuality, to Major Raikov’s don’t ask don’t tell relationship with Col. Volgin and crotch grab stun move in Substinence, MGS is an all out homo-fest. (again I won’t even go in the name Solid Snake) Here we have Vamp. Actually a confirmed bi-sexual, he is a member of the Dead Cell faction of MGS and a boss in the second game. He is also the former lover of Marine Commandant Scott Dolph, father of Fortune, one of the games female characters. He sports vampire like attributes, a van dyke beard, and long stringy hair…talk about your Euro-trash! He may suck co*k, but this fancy fellow can take a bullet to the head and still come back for more

Reader Matt W. sends in this hilarious look at Liquid Snake from the (as I am slowly realizing) uber-gay Metal Gear Solid Series..
“Being straight I don’t claim to be an expert on what makes a character truly gay. But I do agree that MGS is a homo-fest, so I had something to add.
Liquid Snake – MGS1
I am not gay, but Liquid Snake makes me wish I was. He’s Oscar Wilde meets Darth Vader. Liquid Snake is Solid Snake’s twin brother, but whereas Solid is a gruff introvert, Liquid is a scene-munching fireball of homoeroticism. Imagine if Hugo Weaving had played Agent Smith like he was still in Priscilla Queen of the Desert, and you’ll begin to get an inkling of the flaming magnetism Liquid brings to the action-thriller setting. He refuses to wear a shirt, gallivants around like he’s doing Shakespeare in the park in every scene, sucks the juice out of every line of dialogue, and finally rips Solid Snake’s clothes off for no other reason than to bask in the radiance of their collective bare-chested glory. And if that’s not enough for you, Liquid Snake’s English voice-actor, Cam Clarke, is a gay-rights activist and singer. ”
