You can't compare DARPA to Alaska! They don't teach you about DARPA in elementary school. Not everything in Metal Gear is real, you know. Is there really a FOX HOUND unit (actually, there probably is)? Is Metal Gear REX real? Why would you say “Of course DARPA exists” like everyone knows that? You can’t compare DARPA to Alaska!

That's like saying "omg Alaska exists!? That was in MGS too!!" BigDog looks like crap, but it's definitely a huge leap forward in robotics and I look forward to seeing what it's descendents will looks like and what they can do in a few years time. Not launching nukes with their railguns, I hope. If you like this, check this out: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=109_1195663753 A step towards Gray Fox's exoskeleton. Which is awesome.
