This week, Konami released a 16-second, pre-E3 clip teasing the altered voice of Solid Snake in the upcoming Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.
For PlayStation gamers in particular, voice actor David Hayter's ability to portray the ever-skeptical and stubborn Solid Snake (and Big Boss) had become a trademark of the series. When it was announced that Hayter would no longer serve as the voice actor for the sequel, many die-hard fans of the franchise were concerned that Snake would suddenly seem unreal and unfamiliar--a strike to the game's authenticity.

As GameSpot's video indicates, we have only to wait for Konami's E3 2013 show (livestreaming exclusively on GameSpot) for the truth of who will voice Snake in MGS V.
Let us know in the comments below, or on our community forums, if you think the change of voice will have any substantial effect on the game. If Snake doesn't sound like himself, will you consider abandoning the title altogether?
