Ali Hillis is a bit of an up-and-coming name in the world of video game voice acting. She hadn't been a voice actress for games at all until taking on the role of Liara T'Soni in Bioware's Mass Effect, and then in 2010 she's had two massive roles - returning as Liara in Mass Effect 2, but even bigger playing leading lady Lightning in Final Fantasy XIII.
To celebrate the launch of Final Fantasy XIII and Liara's return to Shepard's squad in the new Mass Effect 2 downloadable content "Lair of the Shadow Broker", RPG Site spent a couple of hours chatting to Ali about her acting career, her charity work, how you too can get into voice acting, and what it's like to be two of gaming's biggest leading ladies this generation.
