Favorite game narrator

[Kikosemmek]

"... I do not remember your love, Ellesime. I've tried. I tried to recreate it; to spark it again in my memory, but it is gone; a hollow, dead thing. For years I clung to the memory of it, and then the memory of the memory, and then nothing. The Seldarine took that from me, too! I look upon you and feel nothing. I remember nothing but you turning your back on me along with all the others. Once my thirst for power was everything, and now I hunger only for revenge, and _I will have it!_"

David Warner as Jon Irenicus, Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn.

I like JC Denton narrating himself. He always talks in a bizarre semi-3rd person manner.

 

[Cid Silverwing]

Tony Jay (off of Bard's Tale which I never played).

 

[kapzer]

Samuel L Jackson needs to narrate a game. or how about Stal...ARNIE !!! i swear Arnie needs to narrate one!

 

[Hookman]

Bruce Campbell in spiderman 3. Not only one of the best actors ever but also a really funny guy.

 

[Xerosch]

- The lady who narrates the 'God of War' games.
By the way: Her name is Linda Hunt and she's one of the actresses whom you've seen several times in movies but don't know her name.

- Liam Neeson in 'Fallout 3'

- Zoe Wanamaker in 'Fable 2'

- The girl from 'Zork Nemesis'
She has a more or less general voice, but her monologue and the music in the background always give me chills

 

[BmC]

Shodan, from System Shock(s)
David Hayter if it counts

 

[DizzleMcSizzle]

Zoë Wanamaker in Fable 2. Absolutely perfect for the role.

yeah i thought she was brilliant for that role. couldnt help but picture her in "my family" though. loved that show

close second is glados and 3rd would have to be Stephen Fry for LBP

 

[freebiewitz]

My faverite narator would have to beee..... letme think for a moment...
OH OH I know those guys from fps's that yell out certain things when you perform really well.
Like in ut04 Headshot, multi kill or in halo betrayel well you get the idea.

 

[Radelaide]

If it counts, then definitely GLaDOS

Indeed GLaDOS. Or the G Man.

 

[dark jedi josiah]

Who is your favorite game narrator and why? My favorite is the one from Little Big Planet. He actually made the tutorial kind of interesting.

definitely the "masque" from the newer splatter house game
or the guy from a yet to be released platforming game which i forget the name of but he narrates constantly but in a cool way.

 

[TiefBlau]

Sid Meiers from Civilization - Any.
Your father, Liam Neeson from Fallout 3.

 

[emeraldrafael]

Patrick Stewart.

Why? he's Patrick Stewart! It doesnt matter the game.

 

[chuckman1]

Gai from God of War.
Also Deathspank though I didn't play the whole game.

 

[shado_temple]

Leonard Nimoy in Civilization IV. Made the creation of the world sound a bit more exciting.

[ayuri]

GlaDOS

 

[Canadamus Prime]

Leonard Nimoy in Civilization IV. Made the creation of the world sound a bit more exciting.

This! That's one of the things I miss in Civilization V.

 

[Blighthand]

Well, just for who he is, I'd have to say Patrick Mutha-flippin Stewart.

But in all honesty, I thought the guy who did the opening for We Love Katamari was very skilled.
