I just hope they bring back the greatest main theme ever made.

MGSV - Voice actress for The Boss working on The Phantom Pain!?
- Thread starter Sn4ke_911
- Start date
So you changed now from #teamnewcharacter to #teamparamedic? is this correct?
#teamheatherhalleyisanewcharacter
A Masterpiece.
I can't freaking wait to hear what Harry Gregson-Williams is doing with MGSV, hopefully we get a taste of his music in the new E3 trailer.
GAWD THE HYPE IS KILLING ME!

Without going on a long, detailed rant about every dumb as fuck thing that happened during MGS4 and PW (as I'm sure GAF has seen plenty of those), I will have to just respectfully disagree with your personal assessment of the situation.
I desperately hope Kojima has SOME kind of editor nearby while he's working on Phantom Pain. I like the broad strokes of his stories, but the nitty grits are...well you know.
I also respectfully disagree with your opinion. Those games were fine and worthy of all the great scores they got.
Looks like Skull Face to me.
Might make a return based on this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cfJ0uAI2tk

I agree but even Hayter's worst isn't half as bad as some lines in GZ, especially in the deja-vu mission.
Its the voice director's fault Hayter got worse anyway.
a few more hints why Solid Snake will be in MGSV.
Gameinformer's MGSV cover story was the hub this image:
aaand ...if you edit the pic you can see Solid Snake in the background. This is pretty much the biggest hint.
It's the same art as from the essential collection. Definitely Solid Snake.
Second hint: Yoji Shinkawa lately has been drawing Solid Snake on a few events.

Time jump.
I think we will see both, young Liquid and Solid and then later a time skip happens where we play as older Solid Snake (voiced by David Hayter) fighting against Big Boss (Kiefer Sutherland)
I mean seriously, how can you still not be sure Solid Snake is in the game when you see this picture?
There are these things called epilogues.

Time jump and the fact that he was born with accelerated aging, in fact it's completely possible that we'll see multiple time jumps forwards and backwards.
Who knows really, all I know is I CAN'T FUCKING WAIT.
Retcon is retroactively changing the continuity, I suppose that's really up to interpretation, but since we appear to disagree on this I don't really see any merit in trying to change each others minds on that aspect of it.
Regardless of whether or not you view something that has been explained as retcon or not there are plenty of thing sin the Metal Gear Series that directly contradict previously established canon, with no explanation.
Some of the things that were retconned with no explanation include off hand:
Big Boss was established as losing his eye in the 80s but when they made Metal Gear Solid 3 they changed it so it happened in that game instead which took place in the 60s. They also changed Boss' age making him around 20 years younger.
Miller's ethic background and name were changed.
Dr. Madnar was killed by Snake in Metal gear 2 but in metal gear Solid 4 he is alive and well and no explanation of any sort is given.
Rose says in Metal Gear Solid 4 that she met Campbell while he was Raiden's commanding officer, however the end of MGS 2 established that Campbell wasn't actually his superior and was actually GW giving him orders.
The list of the patriots Otacon got from the Partiot's computers had a list of them on it, but they had all died 100 years prior, predating the creation of the patriots as established in the later games.

The names on the list are of the Wisemen's Committee
Yeah, Gregson-Williams always brings it. Is Ludvig Forsell sharing composing duties with him? He's still on the Kojima Station episodes so I guess he's doing some work on the project as well.
It was just an AI modeled on her, that wasn't The Boss, she's still dead. It didn't save the world by singing a song either,
it did that by drowning itself.
I'm not sure you're using either of those words right
She "saves the world" by sacrificing herself and walking into the ocean, not just by singing
Of course, your point about how ridiculous it is still stands

Ew, she did a poor job in MGS3. If they are going to do something with The Boss, get a new VA.

It won't because before Portable Ops came out, Kojima was approached by someone claiming that Tappy stole it from a Russian classical piece by Georgy Sviridov called The Snowstorm. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1FtL4uIQ0c
That's why the section of the theme was removed from Showtime song of Portable Ops and hasn't been seen in the series since.
For example: This is the original version of Showtime played during the first Portable Ops trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mhU8e_S1qg
And this is the edited version used in later trailers and appeared on the ipod in MGS4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAWyVIMNYZ4

The only version of the original theme that can still be used is the Encounter version from MGS 1 as it is different enough to not be considered infringement: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnKeN9zIkoE
EDIT: Didn't mean to self-quote

Has anyone reached out to Game Informer to see if that image was provided to them as official artwork? Or is it something their own design team whipped up?
Why should they put Solid Snake in that artwork when they aren't even sure he's in the game?

Trolling? A mistaken design artist thinking it was a young big boss? Who knows. I just don't want to get excited until I know that image exists outside Gameinformer's site

The voice direction was suspect but I still don't think she is very good at doing dramatic roles.

The Boss? MGS5?
(EDIT: That is to say if it's just a flashback, I'd be extremely happy. If it's a retcon though - like bringing her back from the dead - I'll be extremely pissed. MGS3 was close to a perfect videogame as you could get in my eyes in terms of story (until TLOU) and The Boss was partly the reason why that was the case)

Ok, let's say GI was stupid enough to think this is a young Big Boss.... then why is he almost invisible in the original picture? You can see Solid Snake only good if you play around with the brightness and contrast. They clearly dropped a hint there. and by they i mean Kojima and Co. i don't think Game Informer did anything with this pic.

Looks like it really is just the collection artwork. You can see the other guy tot he right of Solid.
Is the guy to the right of Solid Snake also Snake? Naked/Big Boss before eye patch? It's just using the colletion art with new Big Boss art put over where Big Boss is on the orignal collection art with the other drawings lightened up so as to make them less noticeable.

Don't fucking do this to me, Kojima. I can't take it.
