Big Boss is dead. He died in Metal Gear 2 for the MSX.
He WAS old when he died.
Then, if the snakes are clones of big boss, why wouldn't he be old looking?
(I only played mg1, mg2 and mgs twin snakes.
Hmmm, if I understand this right...
Both Solid Snake and his nemesis, Liquid Snake, are actually clones of Big Boss created in the 70s from a secret government experiment known as the Les Enfants Terribles project (French for The Terrible Children, and a frequent nickname for particularly iconoclastic film directors). While recovering from a war injury, Big Boss' cell samples were extracted and then reproduced through analog cloning and the Super Baby method. The cells were fertilized into an ovum, resulting in eight clone babies, and then planted into a surrogate mother. Six of the babies (later revealed to had only been five) were then intentionally aborted to encourage strong fetal growth with the remaining two (Later found out to be three) clones: Solid and Liquid (and Solidus). Solid Snake was raised in the United States, while Liquid was adopted by the British government. Solidus Snake ended up in Africa.

Old school ones were for NES.
Metal Gear Solid as PSX. MG was NES.
The real versions were on the MSX. The NES version of Metal Gear was ... pretty bad. It also changed the story. They also had an unofficial (but still fun) sequel to the NES version, called Snakes Revenge. Don't take this game as canon. It is not. The official sequel can be found on the MSX, and also on the second disc of MGS3: S, which is fully translated. I would check it out if I were you. It's pretty fun.
