I'd argue that while Hayter's perfomance in MGS3 was passable, I felt like it got worse in MGSPW especially how Big Boss sounded much closer to Old Snake (which just seemed all kinds of wrong). There were times when I honestly had to do a double take just to grasp the intended emotion he was aiming for due to the heavy and grizzled tone of his voice, leading me to sometimes just read the subtitles as it made the dialogue more coherent for me. Not that his work in MGSPW was horrible, but it was definitely far from his best.
