Best Narrator, period

[Terramax]

They guy who voices Max Payne games. He's spot on.

Also, the voice actor for George Stobbart in the Broken Sword series.

Edward Norton (Fight Club.)

Yeah, how could I forget this?

 

[Purple Shrimp]

Vivian Stanshall

"two, slightly DISTORTED guitars"

 

[oden636]

the man on the english come dine with me.

 

[Ignatz_Zwakh]

I don't know his name, but the VA who narrates Ys: Oath in Felghana is epically hammy. Hearing him describe Adol's actions is just priceless. ><

Oh, and the narration in Call of Juarez: Bound and Blood. I forget his name, but the youngest Mccall(The preacher) tends to describe things in such an overblown fashion I couldn't help but want to restart certain levels just to see if I actually heard him correctly the first time.

 

[KaosuHamoni]

Morgan Freeman, that man could narrate the most boring, mind-numbing drivel and people would still shell out a ton of money to hear him speak

It's Morethan Freeman, get it right. =P

But yeah, agreed.

 

[Casual Shinji]

David Attenborough.

Honestly. What is every nature documentry in the world going to do when he dies?

It'll be a sad day for flora and fauna everywhere, the day that Dave dies.

OT: Linda Hunt.

She has such a wonderfully ancient sounding voice. Kudos to Sony Santa Monica for getting her to narrate the God of War games.

 

[Gordon_4_v1legacy]

I'll put forward Ringo Starr (former Beatle), for Thomas The Tank Engine. It was such a huge part of my early childhood, I just can't ignore it

Thank you, I was hoping someone would mention Ringo. He brought a little bit of something different to each engine; a cheeky inflection for Thomas, a sort of wide eyed awe with Percy and this deep rumble for Gordon. He was a marvel and I miss him doing Thomas

I also think Christopher Lee would be an awesome narrator.

 

[Mr Cwtchy]

David Attenborough. Nature documentaries will never be the same again.

Also Stephen Fry, because his voice is like honey.

 

[Blitzwarp]

I think Leonard Nimoy deserves a spot. Just sayin.

I actually fully agree, was about to say that myself, lol.

^ Thirded, definitely. Along with David Attenborough. I'm watching Planet Earth at the moment and his voice is kickass.

 

[New Vegas Samurai]

Ron 'motherlovin' Perlman for his
"war... War never changes..."

 

[Boneasse]

Only reason I saw March of the Penguins, was because Morgan Freeman was the narrator.


Also, Stephen Fry has a crispy nice british voice.

 

[Goldeneye103X2]

Johnny Depp in Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas. He just brings such a perfect character, and no-one else could have played the role better than him.

And Jason Statham in Snatch. Because he's just so funny. Actually, sometimes, whenever I'm in trouble or just a bad situation, I narrate in my head in a Jason Statham voice. Because he's Jason Statham.

 

[theartknife]

am i blind or has nobody mentioned John Hurt!?

come on people!

 

[Coop83]

Richard Burton is the best narrator I've heard. His voiceover for War of the Worlds was brilliant. So brilliant in fact, that I had to have my own attempt at it.

Shameless plug:

[baconsarnie]

Christopher Lee, he just oozes style

 

[Airhead]

James Earl Jones. Not very unconventional choice, but he just has a MINT voice.

I was growing increasingly confused why no-one mentioned him up to this point. His voice is like a brain massage.

 

[Casual Shinji]

Linda Hunt... Is she the very short woman who has like a slight lisp that sort of adds a level of distinction to whatever she's saying. I think, the one who was in NCIS LA?

Yeah, that's her.

A short old lady who kinda looks like Edna Mode from The Incredibles
