David Bowie is an acclaimed musician, but he is also every Metal Gear Solid character. At least that's what this image spotted on Reddit (via Kotaku) would have you believe.

The connection between Bowie and Metal Gear Solid is nothing new. In fact, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater contains numerous references to Bowie's "Major Tom" character. In addition, series creator Hideo Kojima said earlier this year that he wanted to use Bowie's "Diamond Dogs" as the opening song for Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes.

Bowie's connection to gaming goes deeper still. He is also the father of Duncan Jones, who is currently directing the movie based on Blizzard Entertainment's Warcraft franchise.
