"Hey, look! We're ALL from North America!"

What's annoying me is the fact that every game (almost) have voice acting performed by americans.
I can't understand why it's so hard to get a couple of brits, some scots or whatever along. Just look at how brilliant Dragon Quest 8 sounded.

This shits me almost as much as the way Games will throw in some kind of American component because if they don't all sales gone. TOCA Touring Cars is the real villian here. Despite being an officially licenced European Touring car game, they throw an American into the story mode. ARGH!

I recall Halo having Australian and British accents. Fable sounded great with Pommy accents too.

I really liked the voice acting in Metal Gear Solid. That said the plot and events in 2 and 3 was too ridiculous to allow the actors to use their full talent. The Twin Snakes is probably the best in the series because MGS1 was the most plausible game and they reworked the dialgue, removing the corn for the Gamecube remake. That said, they striped away all the accents...

Half Life 2, bar GMan had great acting, Alyx feels like a real companion throughout.

If you're looking for console games, i havn't really played all that many console games with voice acting. At the moment it'd tied between Final Fantasy X and Baten Kaitos. Both have they're annoyances for me, and both have they're ups for me.

You've got to be kidding. Play some real games or leave immediatly. Both these titles were shocking.

How ya doing, buddy?

Let's not forget Crazi Taxi!

"Hey hey hey, are you ready to make some CRAAZY money?"

"Woah! Take me to the church!"
"YEAH! Party Time!"

I mean hey if we're calling Kratos from ToS as a well acted character then surely B.D. Joe can be listed too!

There's nowhere I can't reach.
