John DiMaggio's gruff Jack Bauer-esque voice is what defined Marcus, he fits him perfectly! Although I love Steve Blum and part of me wouldn't have if he was kept, but if he was Marcus wouldn't be as renowned as he is now. He would be considered "just another Wolverine-esque Steve Blum character", like others such as Colonel Barnes(Vanquish) & Joe Gibson(Bionic Commando).
even Fenix looks hella different in this teaser...he still sounds like di maggio tho. if i hadnt known it was a different actor i wouldnt have been able to tell
@Starwind18020 Idiot! They didn't have much time but I do remember the Berserker sniffing while glowing and this trailer fits the archetype of monsters PERFECTLY! They're born from fear, (or hatred or wherever the locust come from in the Hollow), they're not above human logic, but they are in human strength limitations, and they strike without warning and strike FEAR into the hearts and minds of many!
Yes, I remember watching this teaser and instantly recognizing Steven's voice. I was a little disappointed when I later learned that Steven would not be voicing Marcus in the actual game.
dimaggio ftw
blum can go to hell for "trying" to do marcus

Steve Blum does the same over-the-top, crappy voice for every character he's offered. :\

actually I think John Di Maggios voice suits the look of marcus real well.

DiMaggio is SO MUCH better for Marcus voice.
I mean Steven is a great actor, but he just doesn't fit to such a "big" guy role, let him stay with Vincent from Advent Children :)

As much of a Steve Blum fan as I am, I prefer John DiMaggio as Marcus.
Also, none of this footage is from the game. WTF.

This was an old trailer, the first. It was just a "taste", not really an example of gameplay.
