Nolan North was really good as Drake in Uncharted. Even his delivery on average lines is amazing. Take when he says "That's.. my blood... That's a lot of my blood" in the Uncharted 2 trailer.
I'm also a fan of Quinton Flynn .Raiden may get some shit lines sometimes but Quinton nails the darker side of his character. I especially like how he delivered "I have no family! I have NOTHING." in MGS4.

Michael Cudlitz as Sgt Glenn 'Hawk' Hawkins (voice) and Frank John Hughes as Pvt. Alvin 'Brooklyn' Bloomfield in Call of Duty 2:Big Red One. They both made the game very entertaining to listen to.
Sgt. Hawkins- "Brooklyn, get over here!"
Brooklyn- "But sir, I'm from the-"
Sgt. Hawkins- "NOW!!"

Where have you heard your favourite voice acting?
I cant go past the entire MGS series with its cariacatured snake, (David Hayter) and then Crisis Core on PSP was pretty well done too, thoughts?
All the male characters in Crisis Core sounded like they were eunuchs.
I'd have to agree for the american voice actors, they sorta sounded a bit girly, although still well executed. The japanese voice actors were much more manly imo

Liam O' Brien - Lezard Valeth, Valkyrie Profile 2:Silmeria. Seriously, listen to his laugh:

Gideon Emery - Balthier, FFXII
THANK YOU. I was about to post this! For all the flack FFXII gets, the voice acting was amazing. Also tossing my hat in with Auron, Wakka and Lulu from FFX, and Leon from KH1 as that's pretty much how I figured Squall/Leon to sound like, David Boreanaz, haha.

Also David Hayter; loved when they got him to say "Love cannot bloom on the battlefield" or whatever at that convention. <3

I would have to say that I liked Bohan in Heavenly Sword. His voice actor (whose name escapes me at the moment) did a great job with that and mo-capping. Every time he spoke or was on screen, I felt like I was watching a high-end CG movie instead of a cutscene, and it was AWESOME.
That would be Andy Serkis, the man who played Gollum in the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

He was also the visual effects director of Heavenly Sword if I'm not mistaken?

EDIT:

Actor Andy Serkis, who is best known for his motion capture and voice work for the character Gollum in the The Lord of the Rings movies, performs as the voice and motion capture actor for King Bohan, one of the major characters in Heavenly Sword; he also acts as Dramatic Director for the game and is one of the writers of the story of the game.

Mass Effect had stellar voice acting through and through...I love the voices of the Elcor race...

Raphael Sbarge will always be my guilty pleasure. I love his voice....even if Carth was a wee tad whiney. *ducks*

After a short while, the first game that comes to mind is Killzone...

EDIT: With the risk of sounding like the fanboy I am, Emperor Visari in KZ2 is very nicely done too.
