Solid Snake Voice Actor Interviewed 15

Posted by simoniker from the insert-player-hayter-pun-here dept.
Thanks to the Gaming-Age forum regulars for pointing to an interview with David Hayter, the voice of Metal Gear Solid's Solid Snake, over at OperationMGS.com. The chat covers what Hayter, also the successful screenwriter of both X-Men movies, thought of the two games so far ("..the game play in the second game is superior to the first, I think, but I think I like the story of the first better than the second"), and also mentions that he's recorded new voiceovers for the updated version of the original MGS, Metal Gear:The Twin Snakes for Gamecube, but is tantalizingly coy on details ("Everything we did for the remake just made the game better.")

  • Can we say "bug!"? :)
  • Finally, a good article on games.slashdot.org!

    This is a Solid (pardon the pun) step up from the "Knife Skin" articles we have seen.

    good show!

  • Anyone else here think that the Metal Gear Solid series is highly overrated in the story department? The gameplay and cinematic directing are fine, but the dialog was downright painful.

    Playing through the original Metal Gear Solid, it seemed to be written by two people (or one person with a split personality) -- One of them being an excellent writer, and the other being a complete hack. For every oh-wow moment of complete immersion, the was a moment that ripped it away completely. In fact, it would have
    • Totally true. Especially the second MGS. Utter and complete shit. The story was not only horrible, it was intrusive and, I swear, at times I thought that the writer just wanted to see how far he could take the bullshiting until players gave up. I almost did and, frankly, after having played through the final battle and seeing the HORRIBLE fmvs that came before it I regretted having bought the game. While the first one was truly an excellent game, the second was too shallow, too patronising and had a shitty,
  • On the one hand, he did some pretty good voice acting form some pretty damn good videogames (not just Metal Gear), and does some good movie writing.

    One the other hand, whenever I'm reminded of his role in Fushigi Yuugi, I scream in agony at the braindead "heroine" of the show screaming his character's name constantly. I know it's not his fault, but that's what I'm reminded of.

      Side note; on one of the OVA series, they have a little comedy serial about the two groups of Celestial Warriors going to a health spa; they all make fun of themselves. Chiriko keeps getting motion sick, for example. The whole bus ride, Tamahome and Miaka are sitting in the b

  • Is it just me, or does Solid Snake soooooooo sound like kaiba from yu-gi-oh?
