Voice Casting in Games

[Samwise137]

I was just reading on Wikipedia and IMDB that James Marsters, Adam Baldwin, Gina Torres, and Summer Glau are all providing voices for the upcoming MMO DC Universe: Online. These are, of course, all actors who have previously done work for Joss Whedon's TV shows (Buffy, Angel, and Firefly). Is this a coincidence? This also made me wonder if there's any other big games with Ensemble casts from the film industry. Anyone know some good ones?

Well on the subject of Firefly, there's always Halo 3: ODST which features the voices of : Nathan Fillion (Buck), Adam Baldwin (Dutch) and Alan Tudyk (Mickey). Also Tricia Helfer of Battlestar fame as Captain Dare.

Also if you're inclined to believe old Molyneux, Fable 3 will have: "the greatest cast that any computer game has ever had," including Stephen Fry and John Cleese. But to be honest, just featuring those two actors alone has sold it for me!
