And I doubt any of those VAs have as many followers as Hayter.

I guess you could give Jennifer Hale a shot, too.

Jennifer Hale? She's Naomi isn't she? I've only played Twin Snakes. Forgive me if I'm wrong.

Would have thought she'd have more followers.


Hale also voices Otacon's sister in MGS2.

I just beat Metroid: Other M, and while I loved the game it turned out to be completely not worth thinking over it for years.

I am playing the MGS1 main theme right now. It is my hope this will somehow help Snake.

I've been listening to various MGS songs for most of the match. Drifted away a bit when it looked grim, but went right back when Snake started fighting back again.

The real key is going to be whether the contest gets mentioned during the LoL World Championship stream today. Last year 8,000,000 unique viewers watched the stream in some capacity, and just a few months ago (All-Star Game) 18,000,000.



im willing to bet a lot of them could be MGS fans as well

Have you guys seen Reddit? They are going bonkers since Hayter tweeted


Holy s*** I have an idea. Maybe r/gaming doesn't care about our contest, but would they care about Hayter tweeting about it?!


I posted it to r/Gaming two minutes ago,


Was it deleted? I don't see it.


Don't think it got any votes, here's the link: http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/1mf68n/david_hayter_tweets_about_gamefaqs_character/


It got spam-filtered, didn't ever show up on r/gaming.

I wonder...

who are the other notable MGS voice actors? With Hayter having already done, we could easily get them in on the action!


http://metalgear.wikia.com/wiki/Voice_actors

Cam Clarke, Debi Mae West, Christopher Randolph, Patric Zimmerman, and Quinton Flynn are your best bets.

Quinton Flynn is probably the best bet as far as getting other MGS VAs to Tweet anything. Dunno how many followers he has though.


Quinton Flynn doesn't have that many followers, I would say Jennifer Hale would be a good try.
There's also Troy Baker since he's voicing Ocelot in MGS5.

If that happens and they get like 200,000 Draven votes then you kind of just have to hold your hands up at that point.

The problem with Tara Strong is that she was only a VA in Portable Ops. She's not majorly involved in the series in any meaningful way.

I mean, she might, but I doubt she cares about MGS much.

He's beating Draven in the deep night. This is glorious. Tomorrow's rallies are gonna hit the fan though.

Man Snake.

Even though you're probably going to lose I have to salute you.

Also this is a pretty crappy showing by Draven. He should be killing this time period.

man. who else voices characters regularly?

who voiced Otacon, Raiden, and Ocelot?


Otacon - Christopher Randolph

Raiden - Quinton Flynn

Ocelot - Patric Zimmerman (MGS1/2/4), Josh Keaton (MGS3), Troy Baker (MGSV)

Kojima retweeting would just about make this the greatest contest we've ever had. First, we get Solid Snake to rally for Solid Snake. Then, we get Solid Snake's creator to rally for Solid Snake.

I guess you could try for Josh Keaton, who was the voice of Ocelot in MGS3. He's a gamer, too, I think.

Again, doubt he has many followers though.

While we're at it: Magus vs. Ocelot, who wins?

I pick Ocelot. Magus is not trustworthy. Ocelot broke 40% on Auron this contest, and last contest he proved to be worth 37% on Mega Man X. Yeah, I know Ocelot isn't exactly the most trustworthy character, but everyone he has choked against has done well afterwards (Jill, Red).

agreeing with this. hayter's advantage is that sheer focus of the MGS base. voice actors for these guys all would do it too.
