The Game With Voice

Ah hell no...

That's just your opinion. Nothing else. He is always joking around and his role as riddler was great.

The last thing I'd want for any game is a cast of easily recognizable celebrity voices, because, then, the character and voice actor merge a little in my head -- even more so if the voice actor looks like the character he/she is portraying.

^ THIS.

A good example of what I mean is Phil in Disney's Hercules. That guy is just Danny DeVito to me, not Phil.

^ THIS TOO.

I really wouldn't want famous voice actors because I personally would find that highly distracting. However, the problem you come across with this is the fact that this will likely never happen anyways due to SE's policy of hiring "voice actors" who work part time at the Dollar Tree store. I'm not even exaggerating when I say that 9/10 of all voice actors in pretty much any SE game you can think of with voice acting are trash. Terrible. Terrible. I don't even want to think about this happening to my precious FF VI. But in all honesty, it's probably coming because this trend of older games being remade for the DS [along with that shoddy chibi-polygon style]. So yes, I'm preparing myself for the onslaught of horrid voice acting that's going to destroy one of my favourite FF games of all time. It's plain obvious that they don't really give much of a smurf about the voice acting for the English versions of any of their games.

In fairness, the voice acting for FF IV on the DS was..... "okay", so if SE can AT LEAST meet this level of requirement for "satisfactory" results, then I won't be too peeved. I've given up on expecting good English voice acting for any SE game [not even going to go into the even-worse voice acting for Tri-Ace games, even though those are technically SE too]. Some games would just be plain better-off without voice acting at all.

You mean his role as Jim Carrey trying to play the Riddler don't you?

Anyway, even if anyone famous was possible for a remake of sorts, there aren't many I'd want to see in it. Guys like Jim Carrey in particular are almost too recognizeable as themselves, and it becomes very difficult to see and hear them and not constantly be thinking about the fact that you're watching Jim Carrey rather than the character he's playing.

I cant imagine any of the characters with english voices however for some reason I can mentally picture them in my head in anime form with japanese voices.

I actually like this idea. I would enjoy playing through the game with the English text displayed on the screen as the voice acting is in Japanese.

Cam Clarke as Kefka.

I think Ewan McGregor would be great as Locke as he can be confident but playful.

Hugo Weaving (Agent Smith from the Matrix and Elrond from LotR) would make an excellent General Leo.

Christopher Lee should be Emperor Ghestal.

I must agree that Kefka should be played by Tim Curry, but in his Rocky Horror Picture Show voice.

This is starting to sound like... a certain other topic that I don't want to mention. Anyways, I'm glad that none of these ideas are ever going to happen.
