9 Most Shocking Betrayals In Gaming History

1. Liquid Snake Reveals Himself As Master Miller

After you first meet Master Miller via a Codec conversation in Metal Gear Solid, he soon becomes one of your most trusted allies in the quest to stop Liquid Snake from his nefarious plans. He's a survival expert, and if you're looking for tips on how to survive and thrive, he's your man. And despite how suspect it was that Master Miller would not answer his Codec during oddly convenient times, it was hard to imagine it as anything other than a coincidence. Master Miller was your former mentor, and a man Snake trusted with his life. But as the countdown to doomsday began - inadvertently started by Snake himself - the man we believed to be Master Miller pulled back the curtain on the most shocking video game betrayal of all time. The real Master Miller was dead, murdered in his home before the mission even began. This entire time, Snake was being used as a pawn by his villainous twin brother Liquid Snake. It was truly shocking, and stands as one of the most memorable moments in franchise history. It created a sense of raw power and aura to Liquid. His uncanny ability to impersonate Master Miller enough to convince Snake, a man who knew him exceptionally well, was an incredible notion. Liquid was cunning, and a masterful manipulator. He took Snake's past and used it against him, creating a moment that will live forever. There's sure to be more betrayals that I didn't mention. These are just a few of the moments when the gamer was lured into a trap, and stabbed in the back. Sound off and let me know what your most shocking gaming betrayals are.
