Hey all. Another short one today. Been playing Bio-Shock Infinite today. Its been giving me a lot to think about and might be posting what I've done so far in the game tomorrow. Right now though, let's talk about your favorite video game voice over artists. I have so many I can't name or remember their names but one of them Kyle Herbert, voice of Ryu in SF 4, is in that video... and doing quite badly. Still awesome and funny to see though. So who's your favorite video game voice over actor?

Charles Martinet, the voice of Mario. Though I do like Jennifer Hale, Kevin Conroy and Peter Cullen. Those last 2 aren't game related but still awesome.

I'd go with Jennifer Hale. Femshep, Naomi, Bastila, the sun in Broken Age, the Lutece twin, and so man minor roles that she always does great at.

I don't know any, but this Ryu guy seems cool.

Gosh, I don't really know any specific video game voice actors, but I do know about a lot of cartoon voice actors and many of them are prolific in the video game scene as well (Tara Strong for instance).

I was lucky enough to meet two pretty well-known cartoon voice actors before. One was Cathy Wesluck. She does a lot of anime voices like Young Trunks and Puar from the Dragon Ball cartoons. And she did Spike the Dragon, my favorite character from the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic cartoon. And no I am NOT a Brony, so don't even think about it.

I also got to meet Don Messick once. He did voices for a lot of classic Hanna-Barbera characters, like Scooby-Doo, Scrappy-Doo, Astro, Ricochet Rabbit, Papa Smurf, and many more. He also did Muttley from Wacky Races, and when I asked him to do Muttley's laugh, he said he could do it better when he used to smoke! His last big role was Hampton Pig from Tiny Toons. I'm really glad I got to meet him when I did because he passed away a few years later.
