I love Jeremy, I've followed him for a while on Twitter. He comes across as self-confident and prideful of his work, which is great and perfect for a good translator (which he certainly is). Shame Kojima didn't agree at the time, I imagine he's a very proud person as well.

I left a comment the first time this was posted, but to reiterate, the MGS translations were excellent (and arguably better than later installments, though MGS3 was pretty high quality too).

Jeremy played a huge part in launching an incredibly successful series. I hope he doesn't feel too put out by Kojima's reaction.

I watched through most of the interesting MGS3 codec scenes in Japanese (after playing it in English years ago). It had an absurdly great script in both languages (perhaps better Japanese VAs). I'm a bit biased towards it though because it's one of the best games ever made IMO.

MGS was certainly memorable, moreso than MGS2 or MGS4 (lmao) for me.
