The 25 Greatest Voice Acting Performances In Video Games

Complex - Videos games have changed significantly since they started to make their mark over 43 years ago. With the evolution of video games also came more of a focus on telling a better story. To do that, video game developers incorporated voice actors into their games to bring them more life. Some performances went down in history as some of the best. Think, Carmilla Luddington as young Lara Croft in the latest Tomb Raider as being one of those sparkling moments while others like 50 Cent as himself in Bulletproof totally missed the mark.

One of my favorites will forever be John DiMaggio. He perfectly encapsulates Wakka from FFX, and his voice will always be known as Bender Bending Rodríguez in my heart.

List is fail, Liam Neeson higher ranked than Mark Hamil`s Joker & no mention of Soul Reaver.

Simon Templeman as Kain is incredible! It's a shame he is so underrated.

Though all of Soul Reaver's voice acting is really well done.

HarryMasonHerpderp4027d ago

Not to mention Lara Croft's new voice actor was awful.

Mark Hamil's joker is one of the best voiced characters period....real or animated.

Donnieboi4027d ago

Persona 3 and Persona 4. Best voice acting casts in history.

Moncole4027d ago (Edited 4027d ago )

Where is the voice actor for Gordon Freeman? The guy did an amazing job.

hulk_bash19874027d ago

No Nolan North is a fail in my book. But I have to agree that David Hayter is certainly worthy of the top spot.

InTheLab4027d ago (Edited 4027d ago )

He's there...at like 11 behind a bunch of people who's appearance on this list is questionable... Even though they're pretty much the same voice, his Spec Ops character should be there as well.

hulk_bash19874027d ago

Thank you. I guess I missed him when I was going through the list.

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
