Well, here's another mystery to cross off the 'unresolved' list; 20 years after Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater's release, Konami has finally confirmed fan suspicions that Russian spy Eva was voiced by the same actor who player Ariel in Disney's The Little Mermaid. And while vocal similarities had led some community members to believe Miñet was actually a pseudonym for Ariel voice actor Jodi Benson(although she was far from the only suspect), it's never been officially confirmed... until now.
