Awesomely hammy acting in Videogames

[VaudevillianVeteran]

Oh Alfred~ <3

"WELCOME CLAAAAAAAAAAAAAIRE~"

 

[Erttheking]

Pretty sure I can throw a dart at a list of Bioshock characters and say "that guy"

 

[Griffolion]

Of all the games I've played nothing is hammier (to me) than:

STOP RIGHT THERE, CRIMINAL SCUM!!!

May I add:

"Thief! I'll have your hand for this!"

to the pot.

 

[endtherapture]

Two words: SPESS MEHREENS

 

[SckizoBoy]

May I add:

"Thief! I'll have your hand for this!"

to the pot.

And on that note: 'You dare steal in my presence?!' which can be easily misunderstood when you're close enough to just hear it, but far enough to not make out their diction...

I think I can win this, if I can change the criteria from "favorite moment" to "moment that made my fingers curl with horror".


This tiny 33 second clip might help some people understand what it REALLY looks like when EA runs a celebrated RPG series into the ground.

 

[Baron von Blitztank]

Albert Wesker from Resident Evil 5.
He will kill you and injest the scenery around him. So epicly hammy that I actually got the game twice just because of him

Spoiler: Even his voice actor gets in on the fun

Amazing to think that it's the same voice actor who does Legion in Mass Effect, that just makes it all the more awesome!

 

[kyogen]

Thief series (especially 1 and 2)
Tenchu series (English-language localization)

In both of them, just hang out in the shadows and listen to those guards.

 

[Wierdguy]

Pretty much anything by Male Shepard in Mass Effect. Mark Meer is almost sublimaly bland, more often than not what he sais falls completly flat. Next to Jenifer Hale as female shepard he sounds just... horrable.

 

[King of Asgaard]

One of the best has got to be:
'What is a man?! A miserable little pile of secrets. But enough talk... Have at you!'
Castlevania Symphony of the Night, Dracula.

"Mankind ill needs a savior such as you!"

 

[ResonanceSD]

KEFKA!!! Surely I can't be the first to immediately think of him =D


Also "meet the heavy, scout, soldier, sniper, spy, demoman (especially) and medic.

Pick any scene from Resident Evil 4, pop some popcorn and enjoy.
