IGN writes: " I'm not entirely sure why, but Japan has been awash in crossover games in recent years, most of which were apparently seen as too niche to make a splash here in the US, even ones that featured major characters like Namco x Capcom. On the complete opposite end lies Chaos Wars, which mixes characters from far lesser-known games like the Shadow Hearts series, Gungrave and developer Idea Factory's own Neverland RPGs.
On the one hand, I have to give O~3 some props for taking a risk in bringing over a game that doesn't exactly have a huge dedicated fanbase, but it also means that Chaos Wars is very clearly aimed at a specific audience -- possibly even one that has taken the time to import some of Idea Factory's games, since their characters make up the bulk of the crossover roster."
Nothing like hiring your own family members if you can't afford the talent.
The second part to the Voice Atrocity article on EquityArcade, this list features examples from Chaos Wars, Final Fantasy X (one part is intentionally bad for plot reasons), Mega Man 8 and more.
There are a lot of great voice actors, and a lot of great voice acting in games. From Mark Hamill as Christopher Blair to Troy Baker as, well, everything. Great story with great voice acting can really draw you into the whole experience. These are not those games.
Jason...JASONNNNNNNNN!!!! Surprised heavy rain didn't make the list, it had some pretty subpar voice acting. Overall the game was great!
Did anyone catch the voice acting for the male leads in the gears 4 e3 demo and the halo e3 demo? The halo voice actor was cardboard ect, but the gears actor was laughably bad. Go back, watch the demos.
The worst voice in a game ever was in Graeme Souness Vector Soccer (on Amiga). When you scored, you would hear "yay goal" in the most depressed, monotonous and bored-sounding tone imaginable.
It's as if the developers had never heard of enthusiasm or celebration.
Far Cry should have at least received an honorable mention.
