You guys. Seriously. You guys.
Bunch of marks.
I'm not going to call you an assh*le for getting my hopes up... but I will say well played you jerkhole.

Would be great if Kojima said "April fools Hayter is voicing Snake" tomorrow.
Please Kojima. ;_;
I certainly hope not.
Yeah, it's that single step from being a perfect .gif.Except... he isn't Solid Snake.
Paul Eiding is not going to be back to voice this young a guy:
He was voiced by David Arganov in Portable Ops instead.
Its for the Vita tutorial changes, the dates match up perfectly. Its not really such a huge job worth listing on a sound studios website because its like 3-4 lines at most, while the rest of the games on that project will be old recordings.
I certainly hope not.
So which would be worse? The new Snake VA trying to emulate Hayter's Snake or a totally new Snake voice that isn't recognizable at all?
Whenever people post quotes like this I cant help but think you sound full of yourself.

Wow. That went waaaay over your head didn't it? He's talking about kojima sounding full of himself, not you. LmaoWell then clearly you need help, because I was genuinely unsure and wanted input from others on it. I am also curious to see other examples of people who are full of themselves in these situations.
How would Japanese respond if they said they replaced the original Japanese actor? just curious
Hideo Kojima - the guy who responded to complaints Snake looked too old in early MGS4 footage by making him look even older.

The ultimate SWERVE would be Hayter voicing every character in the game except for Big Boss.

My. Fucking. Sides. Hurt.
They seem to be the only ones, everyone else wants my head.
I'm confused, what's going on?
David Hayter said:I have been up in Toronto, for the past eight months, directing my first film, (WOLVES -- 2013, TF1/COPPERHEART). On the December break, I came home to Los Angeles for the holidays. I heard then, that recording sessions for MG:V were being put together.
But I didn’t hear anything about whether I’d be needed or not.
So, I got in touch with someone involved in the production. We got together for lunch, and he told me that they "wouldn’t be needing me" on this game. No reason, or explanation was given beyond that.
And that was it.
I drove home through Laurel Canyon, bummed, and thinking about Snake.
To be clear, I love being a part of the world of Metal Gear. I admire its technological innovations, the gameplay, the political message of it all. But primarily, I love the fans of these games. Two grown men burst into tears upon meeting me at the Vancouver Fan Expo last year.
Now that... Is a rare and excellent role. You know you’re making an impact.
And I love doing it.
In 1998, I tried to do come up with a voice which epitomized the kind of worn, put-upon, genetically-engineered clone-soldier that I saw Snake to be. Over time, as the games became more stunning and visually sophisticated, I tried to transition that initial voice into the increasingly real environments in which Snake found himself. My level of success is up to you, but any perceived deficiencies were not for lack of hard work. I have dedicated a huge amount of time and effort into creating a compelling character, capable of expressing the myriad emotional, physical and psychological hurdles that Snake has to face.
Anyway, now it’s been fifteen years, nine games, and an enormous blast to undertake.
If it were my choice, I would do this role forever. To hear anyone else’s voice coming from Snake’s battered throat, makes me a little ill, to be honest.
But the truth is -- it’s not my choice. Any and all casting decisions are the sole purview of Hideo Kojima, and Konami itself. And that’s fair.
And I’ll get by. I am not lacking for employment on any level.
But I didn’t want anybody to think that I was intentionally abandoning them.
And know that I will miss this job, and this character, very much.
My best wishes to you all,
David Hayter

Hayter posted a more detail comment of the situation.
I don't like how this situation is unfolding, the way Hayter is being treated casts a shadow over MGSV.
Because in the end, Hayter IS Snake, wether you like it or not. Surely there must be something else going on. There has to be.

Apocalypse.

So,
So he was told that he wouldn't be needed.
And then he goes on the Twitter guilt trip... Stay classy Hayter.
