Ever wondering who was the mocap actor that gave Metal Gear Solid‘s Revolver Ocelot fancy gun twirling with his old Western SAA Colt revolvers?
We all remember and know that Revolver Ocelot loves to taunt the main character with some monologue punctuated with his skillful display of revolver twirling. Even the infamous Russian Roulette scene, Revolver Ocelot still wanted to have a final say with three SAA Colts in the air.
