Balthier had some great lines.

''I play the leading man, who else?''

Personally, the voice does remind me a little of Richard O'Brien (The Crystal Maze/Rocky Horror Show)

Skateboard4618d ago

I thought the voice acting in that game is superb.

I would love to see FF XII-2.

Kee4618d ago

No, the voice acting was great, he was still an annoying character.

256bit4618d ago

balthier was the coolest he should of been the lead instead of that lame guy forgot is name. vaan or vash which ever it was.

squallheart4617d ago

Actually if you pay close attention there really wasnt no true lead. Each characters story took an integral part of the overall game plot. You could play as anyone you wanted to and everything would be connected. This is what i loved about the game where the conflict was mostly an empire situation where the war was the main protagonist.

gamesmaster4618d ago

i thought every character in XII was annoying.

Retroplayer4617d ago

I thought FFXII was one of the better FF games. The characters were quite good I thought, especially Balthier. That's why I interviewed him! :p

Starhawk over Warhawk?...... Dude, NO ONE should listen to you.

Odd choices for "best" more like you settled as these being the "best" that available to you at the time, cause a lot of these blow or were average to poor performers that ended up in bargain bin.

Missing too many great sci-fi titles here. The Void, The Resistance Series, Killzone 2 and 3, Enslaved, man.. there were so many, this is redicu-list.

FreeckyCake5d ago

Nobody should listen to you either with that attitude.

OtterX5d ago

I agree that Starhawk shouldn't be above Warhawk, however I must say that Starhawk multiplayer was incredible for its time! Many people wrote it off bc the single player was quite terrible, bc it was basically 1 huge tutorial for the multiplayer. But I can tell you never spent any significant amount of time in MP. It was doing incredibly tense base building w air, foot and land vehicle (and mech!) combat long before Fortnite was ever a thing.

I bet it would have been much better received if it had just ditched the story mode all together. So many people like yourself completely wrote it off based on reviews by reviewers that let the criticism of single player weigh heavily on their scores. I bet you didn't even play it.

Friendlygamer5d ago

The riddick games are some of the best stealth titles ever, highly underrated

YourMommySpoils5d ago

What games? All recall plating was Escape from Butcher Bay.

Friendlygamer5d ago (Edited 5d ago )

There's also the less acclaimed 'assault on dark Athena'

( also, not saying this to you specifically but there's both resistance and killzone games on the list, it's amazing how even something so simple and innocent as a game list can be turned into misinformed vitriol here lol )

jznrpg5d ago

Glad to see Resonance of Fate. Enslaved was pretty good too. I’m sure there are others nobody has listed but I’m too tired to try and think of anything
