Bladewolf vs Crying Wolf on the official site's vs

The Versus Page (Blade Wolf vs. Crying Wolf).

On February 2013, the official Metal Gear Solid website issued a special page, called the Versus Battle, where it would have two Metal Gear characters fight each other. Each contestant has at least three images relating to it (maximum of five total), plus a brief bio for each of the two contestants citing their strengths, weaknesses, featured facts, and the game they were featured in. The page had two areas: the main place to vote for who wins, and the matchups. Other than the actual characters in the series itself, the versus battle site also does matches against cosplayers.
