    The trailer looked as if we were talking about some action FPS. Snake spraying bullets? What the hell?!??!??! Where is the stealth element that made the previous game amazing?

    SS2 on the PS2 was craptastic, especially the second part. Truly disappointing, the story was one of the worst EVER. If this trailer is anything to go by, we are going to have another disappointement coming our way...

    You're exactly right about "snake eater" being a nickname for members of Army Special Forces (the "Green Berets"). Specifically, it was a derisive term coined by other members of the Army in the 60s who were making fun of their training where they would be sent out on a "mission" without enough supplies to complete it and were expected to live off the land. They were, and I would presume are, taught during training how to prepare wild animals, including snakes, so that they are edible.
