Konami employs Hollywood no-names for MGS3
Konami has joined forces with some legitimate, albeit unknown, Hollywood talent for the latest Metal Gear installment. David Hyter, Harry Gregson-Williams & Kyle Cooper join the team. Those names ring any bells? Well, Hayter is actually the (English language) voice of Solid Snake and will once again lend his talents-he's also a screenwriter (X-Men, X2 & Scorpion King). Gregson-Williams is composing another original score for the series (he's responsible for the MGS2 score). Some of his Hollywood credits include, Shrek 1 & 2, Enemy of the State, Team America & Man on Fire. Finally, Cooper, a director/producer, is working with Hideo Kojima (MGS creator) on an interactive opening title sequence. Cooper's worked on title sequences for Spider-Man, Seven & Mission Impossible. Metal Gear Sold 3: Snake Eater will be available on November 17. [Good lookin' out, David]
