And that of needing the games cd case for Meryl's codec if you wish to proceed further in the game, iirc.

Otacon: "there should be a codec number on the back of the game box"

I do enjoy when they include pseudo-reality in to character.

I hated that one, cause it wasn't game box but disk case, and in game I'd just picked up a disk and spent forever trying to figure out how to look at the case before looking up the answer.
You know the PlayStation Classic mini-console that came out a few years back? They incorporated that puzzle into the console's packaging: the back of the PSClassic's box includes thumbnails for the 20 or so games that come installed, and MGS's thumbnail is just a picture of Meryl's codec convo screen. It cracked me up when I first saw it.
That screwed me over, because I rented it and the store had put it in one of their standardized store cases
