Oh my god, it's...! (Voice Acting)

[Jolly Co-operator]

I don't recognize that many voice actors, but I absolutely freaked when I first played Mass Effect 2 (PS3 owner, so I missed out on the first one), and realized that Joker was voiced by Seth Green.

 

[KingHodor]

I THINK, I may not be entirely sure about this, but I think the person who voices Jake in Adventure time also voices Bender in Futurearma.

You would be correct.John DiMaggio is his name

John DiMaggio is everywhere... despite having such a characteristic voice, he's done a very wide range of characters, including gritty chainsaw-rifle-wielding super-soldier Marcus Fenix in "Gears of War", semi-retarded carribean underwater handball player Wakka in "Final Fantasy X" and scheming 400-year-old pirate vampire Smiling Jack in "Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines".

It was watching Adventure Time on the Fire Princess episode and listening to the Fire King and going "Holy Shit! Admiral ANDERSON!!!!!!" Another reason to love the show.

Then it was walking past my brother's room and hearing a commercial for "I'm in the band!" and freezing because I thought I heard Alistair. I thought he was playing DA:O, but no it was the guy in the show just talking. Then I sat down to watch the episode and squeed at his parts.

I had to be told by my friend that Benny from New Vegas was Matthew Perry. It just seems obvious now. I did recognise Jason Statham in Call of Duty though.

Also I totally flipped my shit when Cracked told me that two of my favourite characters from my youth, Shredder from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Uncle Phil from Fresh Prince of Bel Air, were the same guy.

 

[JWRosser]

John DiMaggio is in quite a lot of stuff, both games and animated shows. Always a little treat. As is Steve Blum or Nolan North.

 

[CrazyJew]

I hope nobody ninja'd me on this yet.

HOLY FUCK, IT'S EMPEROR PICARD!




Also, J.K. Simmons.

 

[KingHodor]

Several people here have mentioned Odo being Mr House, so it's almost strange that nobody has yet mentioned that Michael "Worf" Dorn plays Marcus the Supermutant in Fallout: New Negas - reprising his role from Fallout 2, in which he also played the game's final boss, Frank Horrigan.

 

[Phasmal]

Ahh yeah. These three being voiced by the same guy . . .

He has a lovely singing voice too:


Plus, he was in Armageddon. My boyfriends mum was watching it a few months ago and I walked past the living room and thought `I know that voice..`

 

[uhddh]

The only instance I can think of right now when I was watching Avatar (Airbender, not Cameron) with the boyfriend, and as one of the characters is talking, I say to him "She sound really familiar." He doesn't recognize her and after hearing her say a few more lines, I say to him "I think it might be Jennifer Hale." After hearing another line from her, I yell "It is Hale!"
Boyfriend doesn't think it is, so I pull up the Avatar wiki and whadya know, it is her (I know she does a lot of voice work, but still).

She also does the voice of Electra in the Cowboy Bebop Movie. And Trishka from Bulletstorm (both of these are a massive surprise to me).

I know Nolan North voices quite a few video game characters these days but him doing the voice for Nathan Drake and Dr. Richthofen (of CoD zombies) was hard for me to believe.

 

[Saviordd1]

Apparently a random asari soldier in ME3 is played by...

Spoiler

 

[BytByte]

Suddenly, Tara Strong everywhere.
Seriously, who would have guessed Harley Quinn from Arkham City is actually Timmy Turner in disguise? Or a magical unicorn? Or Bubbles from the Powerpuff Girls.

I would agree. I just assume she voices someone in everything ever.

 

[BushMonstar]

I was surprised as hell when I heard Angel from Saints Row the Third being voiced by Hulk Hogan.

 

[dimensional]

For me, it would have to be finding out that Loghain (DA:O) is voiced by Simon Templeman, most known for his role as Kain in the Legacy of Kain franchise. It made me like his character all the more when I imagined him saying 'Vae Victis' after a victory.

Yeah whenever I hear Simon Templeman I always think of Kain straightaway he was in Mass Effect 2 as well on Talis mission trouble is for me his voice is so iconic with Kain I cant except him as anything else it just sounds weird.

I am usually pretty clueless when it comes to voice actors sure I recognise some but it is rarely immediately glaringly obvious to me I do remember playing Final Fantasy XII and the old guy in the temple starts talking and I just thought bloody hell its Dwight Schultz so I looked it up to make sure and it was, also it appears that he has done a lot of voice acting in games.

If you dont know who that is he is Howling Mad Murdock from the A team (tv series not film) if still dont know you have missed out.

Jennifer Hale. 'nuff said.

I was doing a second playthrough of ME3, one in which:

Spoiler

The alternate Council was present due to my decision in ME1 to let the original one perish

The Asari councilor sounded so damn familiar, I just couldn't place her voice. I had to go on IMDB to look her up but even then, they didn't have that specific character listed so I had to scroll through the list of VAs until I found a name that would jump out at me. Sure enough, it was Susan Eisenberg who provided the voice for Wonder Woman in the Justice League series from 6-7 years ago.

holy shit! as soon as you said that i matched up the voice with wonder woman and it matched perfectly! subconciously i think that bugged me a bit but not enough to go on a crusade to figure that out, thanks for pointing that out!

There are two video game characters' voices in this video (both from the same game series), though you may only be able to tell one because the other is singing backup. Guess who?

Spoiler

It's FemShep and Ashley Williams:

And I totally stumbled on that video by accident. I still like Scooby Doo, but only the old stuff.

mind = blown. i love scooby doo too, and i never made that connection...that is insane. they should've put some easter eggs in the mass effect games mentioning hex girls

OT:

well kingdom hearts blew me out of the water, I was playing it earlier and really paid attention to the voices...here are some just to name a few:

Hayden Panettiere -> kairi
David Gallagher (7th Heaven anyone?) -> riku
LANCE BASS (yes the one and only) -> sephiroth
mandy moore -> aerith
David Boreanaz (a.k.a. angel) -> squall
Christy Romano (even stevens/kim possible anyone?) -> Yuffie
Billy Zane (kinda old) -> ansem

those are just to name some, I know in the 2nd kingdom hearts and a few others they had a few other big ticket VA's, still, was surprised at this wide range cast.

kieth David is an amazing actor/voice actor, I truly love his work, thanks for pointing out a couple of those, I forgot he was the arbiter!
