Is there any documented evidence Kojima was ever dissatisfied with Hayter's performance? Some of the Japanese re-releases (Integral, Twin Snakes, possibly Substance?) used the English cast in lieu of the original Japanese. The only time I'm aware of any friction was Hayter - writer that he is - pushed back on the idea of Snake flinching when attempting suicide at the end of MGS4. Of course, Kojima had already changed the ending once due to his whole team rebelling, I can't imagine him giving a crap what one voice actor thought at that point.
