Scott McNeil voiced Piccolo in FUNimation?s original DBZ dub, Hohenheim in their dub of the first FMA anime, and Voltar in League of Super Evil. Frankly, the man has godly voice range.
Haha, I had the same revelation the other night. I knew Slate sounded really familiar and looked him up and found out he did Biggs, but that it was Keith Szarbajka!? Blew my mind.Yassen said:The biggest surprise for me recently was when I was playing Bioshock Infinite and kept thinking the voice of Cornelius Slate sounded awfully familiar. Then it hit me, mother fucking BURNED MAN FROM NEW VEGAS. Out of curiosity, I looked up his IMDb... my mind exploded. It's this guy.
That my friends is Keith Szarabajka. Who's that you ask? Well besides that scene in The Dark Knight and the games I mentioned he was also...
Didact from Halo 4
Herschel Biggs from L.A. Noire.
Frankly, this guy has been in everything and I was shocked to see how much of his work I missed.Yeah you saw that right, Harbinger.
For me, it's Jennifer Hale. That she's commander Shepard and Bastilla Shan wasn't a surprise. That she was Samus wasn't a surprise, what surprised me? Was that she was Billy's mom.
I've had many of these, so I'll just mention one:
So I was watching my brother play Tales of Symphonia for the first time (great game by the way), and I couldn't help but notice that the main character sounded very familiar... until I realized it was the same person who voiced Robin in the Teen Titans cartoon!
...Which is why I'm pissed they changed most of the voices in the sequel. Yes, there were some good voices, but damnit, I could have had Scott Menville and Johnny Yong Bosch, two of my favorite English language voice actors in the sequel to one of my all-time favorite JRPGs!

Remember Vhailor, from Planescape: Torment? He's the voice of the Arbiter from Halo 2, and Sgt Foley from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
Oh, and how can a thread like this pass without a mention of the man himself...Tony Jay. The voice of:
The Transcendent One from Planescape: Torment
Frollo from the Hunchback of Notre Dame
Shere Khan from the Jungle Book
The Elder God from the Legacy of Kain series
Megabyte from Reboot
The Lieutenant from Fallout
Basically this guy is the king of the evil voice, and one of the greatest voice actors to grace video games.

Another fun one from everyones favorite Solid Snake VA...Zetatrain said:
David Hayter voiced Lupin The Third in the original Manga Video dub (and hence the Disney rerelease as well) of The Castle of Cagliostro under the alias Sean Barker.
Another good one that blew my fricking mind when I realized it...
Yup... I was pretty surprised but it's definitely him if you listen to the voice.
i just watched Barbershop on Comedy Central and Julius' voice is in the human in that. i forget all the other shit i've heard him in, but everytime i do,all i hear is Julius.Lear said:
Norbert from Angry Beavers and Salem the Cat from Sabrina are both Nick Bakay.
My main one is with whoever voices the librarian in the College of Winterhold in Skyrim. I was like "WOAH! That's the same voice actor as the colonel from that Defender remake on the PS2!" Ah, lesser-known games are always the most nostalgic. T'was fun shooting over-size bugs in spaceships with lazers and missiles.
Also, any time Johnny Yong Bosch does anything. First heard him as Lelouch in Code Geass, then both Yu and Adachi in Persona 4 and I was like WOAH. 'Specially since Code Geass is my favorite anime and Persona 4 is my favorite JRPG. :3

just once so far, in Dishonored
after finishing it twice, I was watching an LP of it, and the LPer started talking about the Heart as if it was the Empress. I wrote a comment asking what made him assume that, and much later, in the end of the LP I noticed in the credits that both were voiced by the same person. Still doesn't make me think those two entities are related within the game world, though.
My mind was suitable blown when I noticed that Nick from Lollipop Chainsaw is voiced by Lex from Smallville who is also the Flash in a lot of DCAU.
Travis Willingham. We all know he played Guile, but he also played Roy Mustang, Knuckles and Relius freaking Clover. I can never hear the phrase "be a family man" again after learning that...
Yeah, when I found that out I was shocked too.Epic Fail 1977 said:
But really: Mel Blanc.....
Barney Rubble
Daffy Duck
Tweety Bird
Sylvester the Cat (his actual voice, minus the lisp)
Marvin the Martian
Porky Pig
and of course
Bugs Bunny
ALL the same guy!!!
I mean think about it, if he had lived another ten years Space Jam would have been Mel Blanc and Micheal Jordan with Drew Carey..... For almost the whole film!!!
