FFX's voice acting was junk.

Most of the obvious games have been pointed out.

I'll add Disgaea and Persona 4. They are pretty much Anime in game form, so the script isn't as serious or meant to be acted as true to life as something like MGS. But, for what they are, they are excellent.

The longest Journey has really excellent voice acting. The sequel called Dreamfall is has pretty solid acting as well, but not as good.

+1 The PS2 game was great

but the PSP version (called "Gun: Showdown" with the same voice talent) was pretty bad.

I should have said "specifically", instead of "only". ^_^;

I agree with Call Of Duty 4 with Sagacious Koreo. I'd also like to put in World At War; they have very good voice acting courtesy of Kiefer Sutherland and Gary Oldman.

INFAMOUS!... I'm aiming mostly at Cole here, but the rest of the cast wasn't that bad either. (I haven't played Uncharted 2 yet, but i can believe it!)

I really can't add much more to what's already been said I suppose:

Batman: Arkham Asylum
Any Metal Gear game
Heavenly Sword
Brutal Legend
Uncharted 1&2
Splinter Cell series
Heavy Rain (the trailers should be proof enough)
Dead Rising (surprisingly)
Bioshock

This guy wins.

Thankfully we saw Batman Arkham Asylum in this thread. Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill, Arleen Sorkin are brilliant in their roles. Whoever voiced Poison Ivy sounded just like Diana Pershing and they got George Dudnza to do a cameo as Scarface, the only problem I had was the guy doing Commissioner Gordon's voice. It was so meh and that guy who voiced Bane was horrible. Steven Blum as Croc was an alright choice, worked for the model but I would have preferred if they went with the TAS model and voice actor.

The English versions of Disgaea and Persona games already use anime voice actors who work on English dubbed anime so that's probably a reason why it has that anime comedy in them.

Resistance: Fall Of Man has some pretty impressive narrating IMO. Also, God Of War series had some pretty good voice acting too.

ZIPPO · 10-16-2009, 01:05 AM

"Legacy of Kain" series Vae Victis!

+1 I also agree with MGS4 and Uncharted 1 and 2.

kman · 10-16-2009, 08:32 PM

I am not going to try to rehash the same thing everyone has said but I completely agree with Uncharted, Bioshock, Heavenly Sword and MGS.

I also feel that the Ratchet and Clank series has been voiced really well and fits the style of the game.

Also Dead Space has some really terrific voice acting along with RE5.

supersix4 · 10-16-2009, 08:34 PM

Assassins Creed anyone I'm playing that again and think its good.

Gamma_Winstead · 10-16-2009, 09:19 PM

Halo 3 ODST had an incredible voice cast.

Nathan Fillion
Adam Baldwin
Alan Tudyk and
Nolan North.

Uncharted 2 is king though. Especially a certain scene that was so well acted I almost cried. Why can't live action movies be this good?

Didn't they announce earlier in the week that there would be some upcoming down time? I'm not at home to check for myself though.

joker552 · 10-16-2009, 09:47 PM

They have "mentioned" this, but this is just ridiculous. It has been like this since the last week of SEPTEMBER.
