Top 10 Voiceover Performances in Gaming

[FireWaterGasoline]

this is a triumph.

[Ungulates]

They forgot Tony Jay as two separate evil gods. Innoruuk from Champions and The Elder God in Legacy of Kain. When he said your soul was his, the abysmally deep boom surging from his mouth made you believe him.

[Zakith21]

@Ungulates Agreed. In-fact most of the voice acting in Soul Reaver was incredible, Raziel and Kain both had extensive character depth and emotion in their voices. Michael Bell had such an intelligent and pained voice. The other thing i'm suprised about is Not having Either David Warner or Kevin Michael Richardson on the list, Irenicus and Savevok had such unique, yet clearly evil voices, far better than anything in this list! *sigh* gone are the days of storytelling games.

[Ninjadude973]

What about the voice of Link?

Don't you just love hearing him talk?

[abrady987]

Is it just me or did these become... hilarious after season 1?

[SpookPhantom]

They should update this list, J.K Simmons (Cave Johnson) was awesome in Portal 2!!

[DrknssRules1]

No Tara Strong? That bitch has voiced EVERYONE!

[KuribohDude6912]

dont be dissin my man Guyver!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CPTDeez8806]

wait....Kyle Barker was Kratos?.....awesome

[welcome2oldskol]

duke nukem is number one! mine was titus from ffx!

[Aidi777]

I expected Mark Hamill to be much higher for his joker performance , but this WAS before Arkham City, so I can understand.

[DrLimitless24]

wow.. how could the guy who voiced duke nukem be the voice behind big the cat? oh how the mighty have fallen..

[PG13eduard]

Most of the Japanese voice actors out there :)

[The123dddd123]

Where's Doug Boyd as Augustus Sinclair from Bioshock 2?

[DleoT]

[MNDerpHerp]

Assass creed

[murdocnl]

No Jennifer Hale? Good lord this list fails.

[Shafayat124]

everyone from la noire

[chucknorrisfearsno1]

Simon Templeman from the Legacy Of Kain series as well as Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age Origins.

[Hynnin11]

mgs is so overrated

[UncleRecolour]

@Hynnin11 you ever played it?

[Hynnin11]

@UncleRecolour whoever critices about something they did not playied, saw or tryied, is a complete idiot

[UncleRecolour]

@Hynnin11 Well i say mgs is not overrated, its on its place because almost all who have played it loved it, no game is overrated

except skyrim

[TheCloneguy3000]

The Joker is the best!

[MegaMyrow]

I know it's pretty but I didn't take it out to breath

[dax9111]

Jack Black as Eddy Riggs

[iWATCHITT]

No Psychonauts?

Too bad, if it was later in the year a portal 2 VA would be here for sure.

[joeyhughes1994]

Yvonne Strahovski as Miranda Lawson?????

[NeonGreenFairyJedi]

If there is no Liam Neeson on this list, it is irrelevant. That is all.

[Pouk3D]

Why din't they give each character at least a line for those who don't know how they sound like.

[dude10219]

Ron Perlman In Fallout?

[F0rkPT]

Oh c'mon! Where's Samuel L. Jackson as Officer Tenpenny in GTA San Andreas?

[SweCats]

No James Woods as Mike Toreno? Well, nothing to do here...

[Nightsyder1]

Ah, c'mon now Mark Hamill should have been no. 1 probably the best game voice acting out there.

[FrostyStoners]

The Warriors...because the voice over was better then the movie itself

[mertdejedi]

James McCafrrey as Max Payne? ANYONE!

Huh, thats why I hate Machinima.

[ELLERYLOLIPWNUALL]

re-do the list and make 1 through 10 stephen merchant (Wheatly)

[kingofthering24]

Cam Clarke in...well, pretty much everything he is in, especially Kratos Aurion.

[hb6206]

wheres Marcus Pheonix from Gears 3



[13thAng3l]

How are none of the people who voiced the Legacy of Kain series not in this?

[jackc765]

what no narratter from fallout games

[stalingrad32]

i love how they don't include any samples of the voice work from the games.

thanks machinima...

[rpgfreak9999]

@stalingrad32 Because they can't fucking SHUT UP long enough to even ALLOW the viewers to hear what voice work they're supposedly applauding. -_-

[TheWalcProject]

@stalingrad32 Because machinima doesn't have rights to all the sound bits

[stalingrad32]

@TheWalcProject

they have gameplay but no audio.

that doesnt make sense.

you dont need to buy rights to that. they dont call up the game company and can only afford to buy video and not the audio.

[cisme113]

What about Jennifer Hale? Femshep sounded amazing plus she's the female trooper in SWTOR (i know it wasn't out when this was posted)

[Kingpin0072001uk]

i wanted to hear some of the voice acting:(

[Guilherme180293]

Mark Hamill (Joker) should be the first

[17deathmetal]

"We need to have a talk man, like a heart to heart"

"About Little Debbie?!?! Right on!!"

[IronMaiden881000]

Patrick Stewart (Emperor Uriel Septim) in Oblivion.

[osamabingoat]

told myself before this vid started. if nolan north is in this, i'm leaving. he's in too many games. stop it nolan north, stop it.

[henlypoop]

What the hell, no Niko Bellic?

[TheDomiges]

What would have happened if Chuck Norris did a voice-over?

[nfsm654]

@TheDomiges Then there would be no "Top 10 Voiceover Performances in Gaming", it would just be the "Top 1 with Chuck"

[distortedguitarist81]

what about john marston?

[Endocrom]

No Richard Horvitz for Psychonauts? BOO!

[ZapperOfGaming]

No Cave Johnson.... qq

[enterprise0709]

@ZapperOfGaming look at the date of this video... this video was released 2 month's before Portal 2

[pexstin]

only 8 for the joker? then again Duke would kick his ass lol.

[xFAxHUNT3R]

stephen merchant as wheatley in portal 2

[wixzre]

no liam neason in fallout 3?

[speedosonic]

@wixzre That guy is a fucking awesome dad.

[STABxWEST]

Weird how they show TONS of game footage but yet we don't get to actually hear any lines of dialogue. This is a VOICEOVER countdown after all.

[Norha820]

Wow I really would have thought some of the people in Just Cause 2 would have been nominated, they were truly phenomenal.

[UnaSolida]

Ummm,how about Rob Wiethoff aka JOHN FUCKING MARSTON. pfftt I'm outta here.

[DoomandHazmat]

i know the voice actor who does jack from mass effect

[zriana1]

wait GlAdoS is a HUMAN voice actor..haxxx!

[dinoBMXidiot]

What about liam nison in Fallout3, or the guy that does cole train in the Gears of war games(the wole cast 4 that matter), or Peter Stormare as Lance Corporal Nikolai "Sledge" Slidjonovitch in Quake 4, or the comentator on street fighter 4, or the comentator on NBA jam , or the voice of ezio auditore in Assasins creed, or the voice of Wesker in the RE series, or the voice of captain price on CODMW ,or the guy how has been voicing mario for like 20 years.... no ??

[Solarcrest]

Dee Bradley Baker....google/wikipedia/imdb­ him he has everyone beat

[McMasonSauce]

Liam Neeson as your father in Fallout 3....? I'm sad thats not on the list:(

[stripe050812]

the chimpanzee joke was really dick

[syswhocares]

big the cat, "I am here to kick ass and find froggy...and I am all out of froggy."

[Abysslord1234]

Ellen shouldve been no 1

[repperhunter]

The only ones that i agreed with was mgs , god of war , nathan drake from uncharted and wheatley. But joker should of been number 1. badass voice.

[leeham991]

Most of these people had extremely cliche voiceovers.

[ObamaBeefLader]

Billy Murray as Cpt. Price should be here!!!

[TheGamingAbyss]

You people notice this is from last year?

[boxxybrownn]

David hatter deserves number 1

[tichergeorge]

brain cox look a lot like visari :O

[Jambabond]

How about Gordon Freeman? Oh wait...

[frankeyboi87]

Brian cox was way better as starkweather in manhunt!!!!

[AllexSkull]

4:57

I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going...

[Vsbobs]

Best Voice actor ever was the One, who was speaking Gordon Freeman, if you ask me. Wonderfull Voice :')

[TheAdamtheClown]

@Vsbobs such a beautiful voice, huh? :')

[Chinese0Chicken]

@Vsbobs The companion cube has the same actor, if I'm not mistaken.

[spahspahspah]

@Vsbobs Indeed. It is rumored that his voice is so pure, so un-sullied by mortal language that only the gods themselves can hear it. (and Gabe Newell)

[rmaViper]

Michael Bell as Raziel!

[MrDustyDwarf]

Where is Stephen Merchant as wheatley?

[RobbyGoesRawr]

Nathan Fillion as SSGT. Buck in Halo:3 ODST and Halo:Reach

[CVargas]

Keith David rules.

[douboymkIII]

molag bal from skyrim

[Kalboi890]

WHERES SERGEANT JOHNSON FROM HALO!?!!?!?!??!

[TheDitz42]

No Steve Blum or Jemmifer Hale, wow

[NIkOPh500]

"...Solid Snake, might as well be called Erect Cock!"

-AVGN

[Darkslayer1534]

David hayter deserved number 1

[caustic777444]

i wish you would actually play their voices instead of using your annoying voices to say unfunny jokes

[shrek740]

What about Liam Neison as your dad in Fallout 3?

[gwarriorfromhell]

what about Jim Cummings in Splatterhouse? The fucking guy did Whinnie the Pooh, Tigger, Darkwing Duck, Pete from Mickey/Goof Troop, not to mention TONS of games and movie voices (the guard in Shrek for example), and he ends up voicing a mask that is as potty mouthed as it is demented. Pretty good actor if i do say so myself. And also, John Goodman was in RAGE, and he did a damn good job at it

[AlphaGeese]

john st.john is somebodies actual name!!!!! And said person is a winner!!!

[giggityguy]

god has the deathly hallows symbol on his head?

[abexuro]

@giggityguy That's the Eye of the Providence. (or all-seeing eye of god)

[henrydethball]

wheres sam worthington in blackops

[fallinloveplaythgame]

GUYS.. Don't forget about Mathew Perry form Fallout: New Vegas... What? Anyone?

[Itsthecluedomaster]

in my opinion number 1should of been Harbringer from mass effect 2

[deltanation22]

I know this is the opposite of what this video entitles, but even though the direction of the scene was well done, Maria's scene in Gears of War two wasn't the best voice performance-wise. It was okay, but Dom's voice wasn't as expressive as I would have liked and was a bit disappointing.

[FancyLasPlagas]

lol "Anticipated DN:F" lol

[FancyLasPlagas]

"The upcoming sequel Arkham Asylum" When was this filmed?

[TheTroublmaker]

@FancyLasPlagas Feb 26, 2011 of last year...

[GENNAVISOIN]

ross scot as morgan freeman. *freeman's mind*

[ilovegamain]

Helooo! Leom Nesson in Fallout 3! 'Nuff said.

[BoBSoN190]

@ilovegamain RON FUCKING PEARLMAN IN FALLOUT 3!!!

[Oxideist]

[haosblade]

[pro13245]

i am thinking about Devon Bostick as Ezio Auditore from AC series

[hm5y]

what about jennifer hale that voices female sheppard in the mass effect games?

[GowitheBeat]

@hm5y Jennifer Hale is in everything. She's like the female Steve Blum.

[supercat567]

What about captian piccard in oblivion

[SuperJacob543]

what about jill and barry from RE 1 ......just kidding thats the worst voice acting in history

[NinjaLlamaJ]

Why about Ron Perelman and Michael C. Hall? Best voice-over actors of all time!

[Randomtalking1000]

they should have let us listen to some of the actor's voice acting.

[supersushi269]

@Randomtalking1000 They didnt in fear of SOPA XD

[InsertDessertHere]

@Randomtalking1000 i agree, these guys arent funny at all...

[ccjones500]

Where the hell is Stephen Merchant as Wheatley in Portal 2. FFS!

[psommorr]

Also Mark Hamil is one of the best Jokers along side Jack Nicholson (Batman 1989) and Caesar Romero (Batman 1966).

[psommorr]

Steve Downes works at 97.9 the drive in chicago! I now have a new reason to love 97.9 other than good music and allowing them to curse during "Money" by Pink floyd now Master Chief works there!

[ryanriddick]

....I must make god poop now?

[XzeroX999]

HOW can Richtofen not be in here?

[MrSimsek75]

[ChrisAkaMastermind]

[archyzz]

Ass ass in Creed?

[Dark7Knights1]

Uhh...It seems you forgot to put Jennifer Hale in the list. :/

[ThusSpokeZoroaster]

How can you run down a list of Top 10 voiceover performances... and not play the voices? I've gotta say, I stopped watching at 9.

[ElPistolero89]

[longmind]

Imagine a review about voiceover actors WITHOUT CLIPS OF THE VOICEOVER ACTORS SPEAKING. Maybe there would be room for that if you cut out the unfunny douche bag reviewers.

fail...
