Kiefer Sutherland is to voice Snake in MGS V

[macmanhigh]

That real time face mocap was the fakest looking crap ever.....Kojima is A Son Of Bitch

Why not Nicholas Cage as Solid Snake? I think it would work out pretty well. After all, he has a better voice for video games than Kiefer Sutherland.

Uhhh I don't think so.

Certainly would of made the boss fight against "the pain" that much better... oh no! not the bees! Ahhhhhhhh!

keifer sutherland will do a great job. I'm glad hideo kojima finally realizes that david hayter's snake voice sounds wack.

 

[rehevkor]

I'm still betting on them pulling something like that Big Boss end credit stunt in MGS4.

 

[pubert09]

There needs to be at least one "Dammit!" in this game.

 

[Subtle Demise]

That tweet shows he's not taking it well. Maybe I'm just not a huge Hayter fan but all his tweets just sound very whiny. But perhaps that's the point because this is likely some ruse, like the entire "Phantom Pain" thing. I don't remember Kojima pulling weird stunts in the past (not that I really followed anything about him), but all of this just doesn't seem entertaining to me.

Dude, I agree....Something isn't right about all these tweets. Maybe it's just wishful thinking, but there is something going on. It's all too surreal.

Seriously now, why in the world they chose not to include David Hayter? It's completely illogical and it destroys over 15 years of MGS legacy...

The funny thing about his picture, I only had to adjust the size ever so slightly, it was almost as if it was meant to be used with Photoshop.

Uhhh I don't think so.

Pretty sure I was being serious

I've already mentioned in the past that I'm fine with a VA change for this game, as it's the end period of the transition from Naked Snake to Big Boss, but really, Kiefer Sutherland? Surely there had to have been a better choice somewhere along the line.

 

[Seraph]

Well, I guess if this really is a publicity stunt (which I think it is), then it's working. For a video showing off a new VA there was sure very little voice acting and a lot of ridiculous facial expressions.

 

[Scott-105]

I'm having mixed feelings here. I like Kiefer Sutherland, but as Snake? Hmm..

All u need to know is this - Duck Face

 

[yokomoko]

Kiefer Sutherland? Ugh. Everytime I hear his voice in MGS V I'll be thinking "WHY!?". David Hayter ruled as Snake, to me this sucks bigtime.

 

[snakepliskin2334]

ok look I know we are all saddened by David Hayter not playing snake in the new metal gear but let's get one thing straight. Sutherland is playing big boss aka Jack aka naked snake from metal gear solid 3 snake eater and what I think they are doing from here on out with all the mgs games is playing up to the part where big boss went rogue and started outer heaven inc.. With this in mind David Hayter might come back as a young snake if they ever decided to remake metal gear 1 and metal gear 2 solid snake with updated graphics and voice overs.

Maybe he went rogue instead...

WHAT EVER SMART ASS .....

 

[Guild McCommunist]

I have no issue with someone taking over as Snake. David Hayter was iconic to the role but I personally don't think he's an amazing actor/VO. Not bad, but not excellent. Considering the tech they talked about in the pre-E3 video, getting a real actor (meaning like does actual acting) like Sutherland is a good idea, to capture the facial animations of Snake and all the subtleties in his inflections.

I don't think we should discredit Sutherland until we really see his performance.

 

[Icealote]

Well the good thing is that we know Jack Bauer isn't going to be taking any bathroom breaks in this Metal Gear game.
