So is snake wearing a diaper now? I didn't really keep up with things after 4, so I don't know if this is a reboot or they fantasied their way out of him folding into himself.

LOL, no.

This takes place after MGS3 and MGS:PW...This is not Solid Snake. This is Big Boss, Solid Snake's father. This one is supposed to show how Big Boss goes from good guy to bad guy (Anakin to Vader).

In the MGS world, the chronological order of events is:

Metal Gear Solid 3 (How Big Boss becomes Big Boss)
Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops (PSP)(Big Boss still good guy)
Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker (Big Boss still good guy, builds a mother base)
Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes (Big Boss still good guy, someone destroys his base)
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain (Big Boss goes bad guy)
Metal Gear (Solid Snake defeats Big Boss, destroys his base)
Metal Gear 2 (same thing again, Big Boss "dies")
Metal Gear Solid (Solid Snake stops his brother, Liquid Snake)
Metal Gear Solid 2 (Solid Snake and Raiden get trolled by Liquid Ocelot)
Metal Gear Solid 4 (series concludes, Solid Snake is an old mofo)
