Final Fantasy X, obviously. :D
Best? Mass Effect is pretty high up there. I didn't really have a lot of wtf moments in that game. xD
BioWare always has pretty great voice acting, but I'll say Planescape Torment or Persona 3. Both games had downright flawless voice acting, imo.
I think the voice acting in the Uncharted games are the best. I love Nate and Sully! :D
Mass Effect fo' sho!
I love when Tali says 'Flotilla'..... :jess:
Also it has Seth Green :heart:

I'll third Uncharted.
The voice acting in The Longest Journey / Dreamfall was perfect.
The mass effect series had pretty good voice acting. I think FF12 did a good job too.
Crispin Freeman as Albedo was smurfing glorious. :love:
Yeah, Xenosaga is some of the best I've ever heard in a game.
House of the Dead 2.
No, seriously, think about it. The voice acting and script are so phenomenally bad that the only explanation is that it is a perfect satire of low-budget zombie movies. There is no other reason why anybody could say PROTECT THE LOYFE COYCLE that badly. It's genius.
I'm saying this from experience. Some people really are that bad.
Seth Green in Mass Effect is the best.Quote:

Fallout 3. Simply because Liam Neeson has the best voice in the world.
Liam Neeson's five minutes of being Liam Neeson is, tragically - blasphemously - not enough to compensate for Moira Brown being... well, alive.
Final Fantasy XII is the best I've played, with Metal Gear Solid 3 being somewhere around there as well.
MGS1 is pretty notable for having so much voice acting at the time, in a title that was still game-heavy. It was also pretty great for being so pulpy.
Hey now, MGS2 had wonderful voice-acting too. John Cygan, Quinton Flynn, Phil LaMarr - they were all perfect. Fatman, Olga and Emma were pretty awesome as well.
Cygan should have been the voice of Old Big Boss, not Richard Doyle.
Also I refuse to acknowledge any voice of Ocelot other than Patrick Zimmerman. So MGS3 can't compare.
I hope you're not talking trout about the one good thing in that entire disaster of a game :colbert:Quote:

And when it comes to comedy, I don't know if anything can beat Kid Icarus: Uprising.
Yeah, gotta give it up for Kris Zimmerman, she knows how to pick 'em and how to direct. O. Smith has also done a great job as well, I got to hear some insights into how he directs at one of his PAX Panels.
I still like Richard Doyle as BB, because he was an older, tired BB ready to "put the gun down" and put the conflict to bed, whereas Cygan epitomized the fanatical idealism of a BB for his time. I would love to hear him portray BB during the rise of Solid Snake.
