After beating MGS1, I have to say David Hayter. Also, the whole game.

Anyone one who said Liam O'brien i agree 100% i never played Darksiders but it sounds like he sounds great ther but where i heard him first was the Professor Layton sereis (which actually has pretty good voice acting itself) i liked his voice there and then I played Unchained Blades and his voice was awesome and then right after that started playing Black Ops 2 heard the same voice so i looked him up and wow he has done a lot and probally great work.

Also Quinton Flynn who is the voice actor of Axel/Lea in the kingdom hearts series is pretty awesome

Old topic.

To be fair (considering I haven't contributed to this topic), Metal Gear Solid. It's already been mentioned, but the voice acting cast is probably the best in gaming to date.

Which reminds me, I have to go through the original again as apart of my monthly completion addiction. I'm mentally stable, btw.

I really like the voice acting in No More Heroes 2. Love the dialogue from Travis Touchdown especially.

James McCaffrey as Max Payne is absolutely fantastic. Such good dialogue delivered perfectly.

Pretty much anything from the Witcher 2.

Anything that comes from LucasArts is good. I still think their games have the best voice acting, especially their older games. Bill Farmer and Nick Jameson -are- Sam and Max to me, and I can't imagine anyone but Dominic Armato as Guybrush.

Everyone from The Witcher 2 was good.

I liked the VAs in FFXII as well.

I quite liked the Prepper from ZombiU actually. Nothing special, I guess, but he did a good job of making you feel panicked with just the inflection of his voice.

Liam O'Brian is where it's at. He's got quite the distinguished voice. He really nails his roles every single time, Persona 3 as Akihito and Zero Escape as Dio, for example.

Martin Sheen as The Illusive Man and Jennifer Hale as FemShep in Mass Effect are also phenomenal.

Whoever does Whealy in Portal 2 is also absolutely amazing at his role.

The Metal Gear Solid series is also pretty good. David Hayter is great, as is the rest of the cast. I just wish the script could be a bit more consise when it comes to the main game, because those cutscenes can be long.

He was brilliant. I was surprised that it was Armin Shimerman (Principle Snyder in Buffy). The voice acting in Bioshock was top notch all round so I look forward to seeing what it's like in Bioshock Infinite.

I thought Balthier in Final Fantasy XII was very good. Also Kanji in Persona 4 (same bloke who did Snow in Final Fantasy XIII).

I agree with those saying Nolan North is good, I loved him as Deadpool in MvC3 as well as Merasmus in Team Fortress 2. Speaking of Team Fortress 2, it has some extremely talented and underrated actors. The guy who plays the Medic also voices Travis Touchdown, Rick May (Soldier) surprisingly has done many Starfox 64 voices (I think General Pepper, Wolf, Andross, to name a few) and many of them have also had many acting roles as well. Lots of talent there, really deserve more attention.

The two announcers in Madworld were perfectly cast. Their ability to comment and insult each other in tandom was phenomenal.

Agreed. One of the funniest games I've ever played.
