My favorite voice actor in a video game had to be Simon Templeman, who did the voice for Kain in Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen.
Pretty much all of Mass Effect except for femshep. There was nothing wrong with malesheps voice acting, the actor Mark Meer was just able to convey a tough voice without sounding fake, unlike Jennifer Hales femshep. Such a shame since shes so talented. Maybe she should stick to less tough sounding female characters, because this isnt the first time Ive been irritated just by the sound of her trying to do toughness.
Id still say Baldurs Gate II beats that though. Jon Irenicus is without question on of the best voice acted villains video gaming has ever had thanks to David Warner.
Tony Jay was also incredible as the Transcendent One and Kresselack the Black Wolf.

Nice one!miracleofsound said:
He is like the Irish Samuel L. Jackson. He's in everything. Although Brendan Gleeson seems to be in everything aswell!
I would love to have said Sean Bean and Patrick Stewart in oblivion but it wasn't that great. I mean there was like 2 minutes of patrick stewart which is just insulting and Martin Septim was just such a douche that Sean Beans awesomeness had difficulty shining through. TBH though I think it was more due to how poor the speach in general was for oblivion, mainly due to a poor script that was too short.
My favourite has to be all the voice stuff for Dawn of War. It is just hilarious. Though I wouldn't exactly call that voice acting as there isn't any dialogue or anything.
Other than that I think the Bioshock voice acting was good despite the fact I didn't really enjoy the game.

Most of the cast of Psychonauts, Ratchet and Clank (both Ratchets were good), and some others I can't remember.
I think Gears of War 2 is really great, but I'm sort of biased on that because I just always think it's funny knowing that Fenix is voiced by the same guy who does Bender's voice in Futurama.
I've always liked the Halo series voice acting, especially 2 and 3 where they found started getting a bunch of other people I recognized, and am still finding out about to this day (I didn't know that Laura Prepon from That 70's Show was in Halo 2 until recently, when I watched the video below). Gravemind is especially impressive if you know that he does most if not all the effects of the voice on his own, and really weird to see him do it, like in here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mGYPj7nh6Y.
