did IGN grab from the spriters resource? - MasqueNoMercy - 10-05-2011

click on boktai 2 (first row, far right) and there is a box in the upper right that shows the solid snake character. did they grab that from here or is that game the origin of the frame that all spriters on this site have to use for their submissions?

I find it really odd that they even did that. It's like they're looking for proof that it's solid snake and just ripped the only visual resource that claimed it was him, aka the tsr icon.
It's one of the first things that comes up in a google image search for "Solid Snake Boktai 2". My only guess is that some lazy designer at IGN just pulled the image from Google Images without even knowing what it was from.

I WAS tempted to bring it up in a comment on there, but there are already hundreds of comments of idiots flaming each other about other mistakes the article made, as well as whether or not MGS3 should have been counted too because it's not actually Solid Snake. That and the fact about ten of them are just copying and pasting their comments over and over without any variation.
