The MMO industry mourns the loss of Christopher Lee, remembering his roles in EverQuest II and Lord of the Rings.

My first episode is dedicated to the legendary actor Sir Christopher Lee who was known for his most recent roles as Saruman from The Lord of The Rings and Count Dooku. But did you also know he also played an important role in the Kingdom Hearts series?"
First Robin Williams then Leonard Nimoy then Christopher Lee. Thats a damn shame, may they Rest In Peace.
I am worried about Kingdom Hearts 3! Two of the most iconic and important voices of the series and (for KH3) just died! How are they supposed to replace Leonard Nimroy? and now Christopher Lee?. Both characters are going to play a very important role in the 3rd game!
Considering he was voicing Ansem and that Ansem is dead, unless he appears in a flashback, he isn't needed.
Xehanort is possessing Tera's body and that's not the same voice either. The only way Xehanort would appear is if Tera reclaim his body, which is expected to happen along with Aqua coming back and Ventus waking up.
The really big loss is Robin Williams as the genie.
They really should hurry this game along before someone else voicing an important character die.
Robin Williams hasn't voiced the genie for a long time. I don't think he even voiced the genie in any Kingdom Hearts. As far as I know, Robin Williams only voiced the genie in Aladdin. All other movies/games/spin offs was another actor.
Well, of course Terra has to reclaim his body. I hope they find some kind of imitator to voice Xehanort. Leonard Nimroy's voice is very unique.
umm...Xehanort the old one is voiced by Nimoy and he is in the game clearly shown in 3D so we lost him, no only did we lose the English Xehenort we also lost the japanese counter part as he passed away a month before Nimoy did. Also Ansem the one you said is dead is not dead at all. He is in the realm of darkness. He met Aqua there and can be seen in the secret episode of BBS final mix. You should get the facts straight.
This weeks Pixels and Ink Podcast starts with some sad news. Firstly, Wayne Santos is leaving CGMagazine to pursue other interests. Secondly, the cast bids a fond farewell to the master of stage, screen and metal, Christopher Lee, as he passed away at 93 this week. But from there we talk about all the crazy news from the week such as the Oculus Pre-E3 press conference, Master of Orion coming back and the announcement of the new 1TB HD Xbox One. Phil manages to squeeze in some discussion on what people can expect from Jurassic World and if it is worth your time and money.
