David Hayter Not in MGS 5 In Order to “Recreate the Metal Gear Series”

SonyRumors dives past the reason why David Hayter will not be appearing in MGS 5 in order to "recreate the Metal Gear series" and discusses the underlying problems that appear to be plaguing the Japanese gaming industry by trying to Westernize long time franchises.

He might as well confirmed that he'll be in it.

Not sure why you got disagrees. That WAS David Hayter's voice in the Ground Zeroes trailer.

Blacktric4036d ago

Doesn't matter. I've been saying this for three days now (even since I've found that video)...

Snake's lipsync in Ground Zeroes trailer is a near 1:1 match for Hayter's delivery, not Otsuka's. All of this is just another Kojima/Hayter ruse. They did the same before Metal Gear Solid 2 released and made everyone believe that Snake was going to be the lead character until launch day.

Unicron4037d ago

Recreate? Then reboot it with a new plotline/universe. Stop doing needless interquels and prequels and diluting the story.

Root4037d ago (Edited 4037d ago )

So true...

I don't see why it's MGSV if it's another prequel, it should just be spin off for consoles or even handhelds if it takes place after Peace Walker.

I understood the third game because it was something different and we needed to have some backstory on Big Boss but we pretty much know who he is now.

Kojima should of came up with an amazing story to continue Snakes adventures....I know I know it was his final game but with the ending of the first MGS we thought he would live his life with Meryl and settle down but obviously he didn't. If he made it so there was a cure for the gene ageing thing Snake has they could revolve a plot around that and introduce a new villain. It can be done, it's his story and with stories you can do anything you like to them.

If it was a reboot I would understand why David wasn't in it but since they've kept the Japanese voice actor and it's a main game there was no point.

SAE4037d ago (Edited 4037d ago )

What he means that kojima wants to try to do something new. Maybe even evolve gaming by taking the chance to release his game in a way that may media or even countries hate it and ban it for being too realistic and will effect people in a way. He want to make it really serious so gaming won't be just a kids toys. To me i think MGS V gonna be better then movies when it evolved. Kojima himself said that he have to try to do that..

I'm just really excited for it ^^

@Root
It is a sequel because all metal gear games are connected to each other. It's not only about Big boss , It's about metal gear so he try to make the game interesting by making it complicated and confusing. Going to the past then the future then the past is just a way to tell a story. Movies even start from the future and then go to the past. So it's not a prequel it's a sequel because it's just talking about the same story to one ending. I think MGR is a prequel or spin off or something like that which is a great game :)

SAE4037d ago

In a short way I don't care if he troll or not. I'm happy for whatever kojima do to mgs. He is a smart guy and have his reasons. It's not like we are talking about activition who destroy games. It's kojima guys. He have been working on this for a long time so i think he knows what he is doing more then us.

Jayjayff4037d ago

I can't help it, Betting my left nut this is a prank. There is just no way.

vazurahan4037d ago

Ruse. The Japanese VA is the same. He also deleted the only supposed to be proof that this isn't a joke. He delete the #NoAprilFools tweet maybe after realizing that it's too much.

crimsonfox4037d ago (Edited 4037d ago )

If this was true then the Japanese Voice actor would be differnet too. I think the original voices for Snake will be in Ground Zeros (like in the ground zeros trailer) and the new ones will be in Phantom Pain. Because Big Boss will be running into Solid Snake soon And it would just be weird. Thats the only thing I could think of that makes sense. Other wise...I'd die inside

And technically Hayter wouldn't be lying about him not being in "V"

Now we'll have to see how much the Master Collection will add to those numbers.

Number1TailzFan172d ago

Too bad it was a lazy release. They could've updated the visuals and everything. Missed opportunity.

Stanjara172d ago

...and yet, they couldn't give more respect and effort into the collection.
What a terrible company.

Minute Man 721172d ago (Edited 172d ago )

Are they counting every game?

Edit: they did

Nyxus172d ago

Yes, these are total lifetime sales of the entire series.

ApocalypseShadow172d ago

.... mostly with the help of PlayStation.

Yea I don’t get why they’re allowing old reviews to be posted here. Someone did one on Soul Reaver and I got so excited thinking there was some stealth release of an HD Remaster, but no… it’s just someone who had a slow day posted an old review…

Cacabunga188d ago

I liked the game but for me it felt somehow like a military simulator rather than a proper MGS.. i got bored of that

micdagoat19188d ago

I do wish they would remaster all the soul reavers

micdagoat19188d ago

it was done this morning though

goldwyncq188d ago

The author was in a coma for 9 years and didn't get to play the game when it released.

Chocoburger188d ago

This review arrived just in time for launch. Perfect timing!

RupeeHoarder188d ago

Amazing how bad this game looks already. We keep acting like this gen doesn't feel like an update but I think we're starting to see it.

YourMommySpoils188d ago

Looks better than Starfield, Cyberpunk and most recent games out. Still fine.

RupeeHoarder188d ago

It most certainly does not lol.

andy85188d ago

Have you player Cyberpunk since the first day? It's absolutely stunning now

1nsomniac188d ago

One of the worst games ever made. Absolute overhyped trash!

Snowb420188d ago

The gameplay was great. It was the tacked on open world and repetitive missions that messed the game up.

Shane Kim188d ago

The game started really strong in that hospital, but after a couple of hours I wondered if it was even an mgs game I was playing.

KyRo187d ago

The hospital section was the only bit that felt like a MGS game.

MGS4 was the ending for me. I totally ignore the fact 5 exists. It didn't need to exist tbh
