In Metal Gear Solid IV, Snake has a little robot companion called the Metal Gear Mk. II. And one day, you might have one of your own.
But, it might look an ostrich, and it wonât be created by Otacon and Sunny.
This isnât the first real metal gear. As previously posted, the Cold War had the jump on that.

Dubbed FastRunner, the bot is inspired by an ostrich. It should be 4â7âł tall, it should weight over 60 pounds, and it could be able to run somewhere between 25 and 50 mph.
The robot is part of a Darpa challenge to create robots able to run over 25 mph. Shame researchers canât develop a snaaaaaake.
