I got a Sega CD just to play Snatcher. xD As for the UMA zoo, I immediately thought about having an entire section of Mother Base as a petting zoo where you play with the UMAs. Most badass pet simulator ever. Especially taking into account that the buddy system has bonds that you need to forge, and we're getting regular animals as support buddies anyway, a "zoo" area makes sense. It'd add to the already immense depth of The Phantom Pain.

Agreed. I can't say I'd be able to recognize Raiden if he got a voice change -- though Big Boss was a different story. Most likely due to Richard Doyle (Who did a much better job with Big Boss than anyone else. Why isn't he Big Boss in The Phantom Pain?) Look, as much as it annoyed me initially that David Hayter got replaced (for the reasons that he was ditched in a really rude and unfair way, and that his voice is iconic as hell), I've come to really like Kiefer Sutherland as the new Big Boss--but, you're right. We've already been introduced to old(er) Big Boss as Richard Doyle, why not do this in The Phantom Pain? If they were to end up replacing Quinton Flynn too I'd just about spit chips. Characters like Ocelot make sense, especially as Troy Baker sounds like a PERFECT mid-point between Josh Keaton and Patric Zimmerman. Any more major characters getting replaced would make me crazy. I'm glad that Huey, Chico and Paz all kept their voice actors for Ground Zeroes, too. It'll be interesting to see whether Anthony Del Rio will voice Chico if he returns for TPP. As another side note, I can't believe I was almost willing to boycott MGSV for their dismissal of Hayter, this was obviously before I'd seen any of the stuff I've seen in recent months.

I want one of those Ciphers as remote control things, that's for sure. Have it scout out the field from above. I just love the gadgets in the various games -- namely Peace Walker and MGS4 -- and I'm happy we're getting more rediculous, yet awesome things. (See the Lisa decoy from TGS.) I think that Kojima said that the only playable character will be Snake, but remote control machines would be pretty awesome to set up tactically. Obviously it'd increase your chances of getting caught and stuff, and add a new layer of challenge to the game.

Hideo Kojima assisting in the torture of Huey is rather difficult to imagine for me, but I'd love to have a bunch of side missions with him. As for the main story, I'm not entirely certain he'll be contributing much, despite us finding our lord and savoir in the back of a truck in Costa Rica in Peace Walker. And yes, it is just like him. The reason did sound pretty humorous too. Perhaps an extreme example, I just wanted to illustrate how I want his character to have a lasting effect within the series as well as his outside genius. Even something as insignificant as Hideo walking around in the background in some of the cutscenes or handing Boss some tapes or something would sate me. He doesn't even really have to be important, especially not in terms of the story, I just want him to be there. Perhaps he can be our "zookeeper"?

That does make perfect sense. I'd probably helicopter back and forth each day just to play with D.D.

Actualllyyyy, I've never had a problem with Sutherland. While I do agree, that was a dick move what they did, I didn't mind the change. Sutherland is an actor I trust. My only deal? If he can't talk about his obsession with cardboard boxes or believing in Santa with a humorous tone. We've seen him as the badass willing to kill Quiet. Now let's see him talk about boxes. Besides, I trust Kojima's judgement. As my side note, I was mostly joking when I said Richard Doyle should be voicing Big Boss, BUT he's still my favorite actor who's done Big Boss. I replayed MGS4 several times just to hear him playing Big Boss again.

I can see a hick shooting down the Cypher. How's that for challenge?

Kojima cleaning horse shit would make me more upset than if he died in the field. And at the same time, it seems humorous.
