Voice acting

[Adagio]

What game has the worst voice acting ever?

I just came across the game The Black Mirror. Interesting game, nothing special, but still interesting... but one thing annoys the hell out of me: The voice acting is extremely bad
There's lots of different people in this game, and for now (almost at the end of the game) I have only found a few characters who has a good voice acting... but the worst of them all, is the one who's doing the voice acting for the leading role...


...all I'm saying is: The narrator program that comes with WinXP is doing a better voice acting as this player...

Toonstruck, though I think they were meant to be annoying. Doesn't stop them sticking in my mind as bad though.

I'm not sure if this counts, but in Silent Service 2 (released in 1991) the voices which played every time you launched a torpedo or sank a ship were only available via PC Speaker.

The Australian (and several other) accents in Deus Ex leave something to be desired.

[DrSpike]

Yes, they are quite accurate.

oh, the accents in the Hong Kong level in Deus Ex were terrible, terrible!

and I hated the voice of Gabriel Knight in the third game of the series (Tim Curry did his voice, right?) I wanted to puke whenever Gabriel started a conversation. But Grace's voice was great, really. As were some of the French accents.

Tim Curry's voice in Gabe Knight 1+3 is one that you either love or hate I think. I love his stuff myself, though it doesn't come close to the narrator with the deep creole accent in the original game.

I thought that they were hillarious!

The GK series has great voice acting.

Worst voice acting I've ever heard- the Swedish version of The Longest Journey.

Although I guess none of you would understand the pain of having the bird-type character voiced by an incompetent fool with a heavy gothenburg accent.

Amen.

Best. Voice. Acting. Ever.

Fallout 1 and 2 had good voice acting, as did Baldur's Gate 1&2, Icewind Dale 1 (haven't played 2 yet) and Freelancer.

I can't really say per se, but I know that wverace 64 has the most annoying announcer ever. But John Madden does get quite annoying in general. Frank Cliendo on Madtv does a great impression of him! very funny! lol!
