A) He's a clone, so he should probably sound similar.
B) They've already used Hayter for both SS and BB. It's dumb to switch now.
As someone who has put hours into it, I still disagree. Yes it's a fun game, yes you can lose tons of time on side missions, no it doesn't feel like a complete game. It feels like a short, very well detailed, game with a ton of sidequests/variations on a theme.
My .02 cents.
Having finally played it, I still agree that it was an expensive but good demo for MGSV. The control scheme is much more fluid than anything in the series, though I miss proper Codec Calls and I'm annoyed the main game is bringing back the Fulton system because I enjoy the challenge of dragging POWs to THE CHOPPER! Hated the rail gun mission. Despite that, the game was impressive but I stand by my feelings it wasn't worth the price of admission. It did make me more excited for MGSV though.
I don't mind Kiefer Sutherland being BB. He did a good job, though his voice is a little too close to Miller's VA, making some of the tapes and trailers a bit confusing. BB is getting older and we know from previous games that BB and SS don't sound the same after a certain point (probably because Snake is way more of a chain smoker) so I'm cool with the change since we're seeing an older Big Boss. Like Bolivar mentioned, I'm betting money that Hayter was replaced because he's going to make a cameo as a young Snake. I don't believe in the switched protagonist theories the fanboys keeping saying (though I find the Quiet = Chico theory to be amusing) but I do feel he'll show up in the series traditional after credit Codec call will Big Boss giving Snake his orders to infiltrate Outer Heaven. :cool:

I really enjoyed it. As WK says, the control and motion is fluid and both the stealth and combat are really tight and sharp experiences. Definitely got me hyped for MGS V. I wasn't really interested before as MGS4 was a disappointment to me after the masterpiece that was 3, but I've gone and pre-ordered it (I know, I know!)
Is it worth the price? I didn't pay a bean, so yes! :D I haven't played through all the missions yet though. I think given that TPP is coming out with the same gameplay and a full game it's not really worth what some people have played for it.
