Just a little of what's been said in the press...
Wallace
& Gromit's Grand Adventures
(Telltale Games)
- Voice acting is beyond superb, pacing is excellent, visuals
are familiar and adorable, and the conclusion leaves nothing in
question. Go play!
blastmagazine
- "The voice acting is brilliant"
cheatcc
- "...the voice acting is pure gold"
blastmagazine
- "Those who don’t follow Wallace & Gromit religiously will be introduced to a world with
great voice acting, bundled with wonderful writing"
truegameheadz
- "great animation and voice acting; captures all the style, humour, levity, and charm of
the cartoon perfectly"
blogcatalog
-
"And like past games from Telltale, the
voiceover work here is once again top notch."
talkingaboutgames
-
"The voicework is again top
quality, with nary a weak link in the performance chain."

Mata Hari
(DTP Entertainment/)
-
"The voices are the
perfect icing on the cake.
Each character is strikingly portrayed and every tone is
believable, every inflection properly balanced. At the beginning
of the game, I had some doubts about Mata’s voice, which sounded
too mature for the character, but as the game progressed through
the years and the character herself grew more confident, I
eventually had to admit that the voice was perfectly cast."
Adventuregamers
Memento Mori (DTP Entertainment/)
-
"Okay,
I’ll just come out and say it – the
narrator of Memento Mori is the
freakin’ best voice actor I’ve ever
heard in regards to the whole “Creepy
Ominous and Omniscient Narrator”
shtick... The
aural aspect of
Memento Mori
is easily the best part of the game. I’d
love to see more
games put the time and quality
into their voice acting cast"
- Sound: Unparalleled
diehardgamefan
Ceville
(Kalypso Media/Realmforge Studios)
-
"voice acting is consistently excellent...
outstanding voice acting"
gameboomers
-
"Whoever cast Ceville gets a big gold star because the English
cast is talented enough to make
the voice-over in Ceville
the
best I've heard in a long time."
IGN
-
"Great voice acting" -
metacritic
-
"superb
voice acting" -
darkzero
- "perfectly cast" -
adventuregamers
- "The voice acting is to be
praised"

Pacman World 3 (Blitz Games/Namco)
-
"...shockingly good voice acting. The whole cast sounds superb and delivers their lines with such aplomb..."
vgpub
-
"Other component that boosts Pac-Man World 3 is its audio; specifically, its voice acting. -Bright, beautiful worlds and witty voice acting give this game a 1UP,
 reaffirming its validity for the die-hard Pac-Fan. "
nintendojo
-
"excellent voice acting."
gamepro
Perfect Dark Zero (Rare/Microsoft)
-
"Then there's the voice acting... I love it... the slightly larger than life characterisations fit the James Bond feel of the proceedings nicely. So what if there's a thick Scottish accent, amongst others, it adds something that you don't often find in games and it's refreshing, plus all of the voice actors do a great job and deliver their lines with enthusiasm and style." acegamez
Wallace & Gromit - The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (Frontier/Aardman/Konami)
Kameo (Rare/Microsoft)
Timesplitters: Future Perfect (Free Radical Design/Electronic Arts)
-
The voice acting in TimeSplitters: Future Perfect is magnificent.
vgpub
-
Voice acting in this game is superb (and funny)
imdb
-
Great voice acting. Very funny.
nintendo
-
What really struck me, though, was the voice acting.
netjak
-
What I really liked is the voice acting in this game.
xbox.gamezone
-
Future Perfect has some of the best voice acting and lip syncing in any game we’ve ever seen before, and is well worth a look.
gamepublic
-
the voice-overs are nothing short of the best comedic delivery in gaming today.
gamerankings
Second Sight (Free Radical Design/Codemasters) - “...the voice-acting
outstanding....” nintendocentre
- “..some truly Hollywood standard scripting and voice acting really brings these people to life.” gameplay.co.uk
-
“The voice acting is great”
cv-games.com
- “Excellent voice acting that helps to make the plot all the more compelling” vgpub.com
-
“Each character also comes with the kind of quality voice acting that allows the story to develop in an interesting and measured way, never resorting to the kind of fingernails-down-blackboards cringe that most games always seem to default to.”
eurogamer
Broken Sword 3 - The Sleeping Dragon (THQ/Revolution)
Drakan - The Ancient's Gates (Sony/Surreal Software) - "...the voice acting is
superb."ps2seeker
-
"...The voice acting is top notch."psillustrated
- "...the voice acting is quite superb."
thetartan
- "The voice acting is great; its good to see that Sony has taken care in this department, because honestly some game developers forget about it and it is an integral part of games today, especially one of this calibre."
psx2central
"....what's most entertaining is the broad scope of voice acting backed up with good dialogue. Often times the game's non-playable characters dialogue is hilarious, and even when it's not occasionally hilarious, it's very funny, providing plenty of character and personality to every character on screen. Even Rynn's dialogue is good, showing her character to be sensible at times, emotional at others, and just plain kick-butt at others. She is so much more of a character and a personality than Lara Croft..."
ps2.ign
TimeSplitters 2 (Eidos/Free Radical Design)
Yager (THQ/Yager Development)
Fantastic to the ears, Yager has sound which is rather exceptional. The voice acting is terrific, sounding very professionally done"
"...very well acted..."
gamefaqs
"The narration of Yager reminds me of Max Payne’s dry humour, but it’s executed well."
ausxbox
"great characters and quality voice acting"
gamerankings
"Script and acting are actually impressive as well; Magnus Tide is a character you will grow to like, as are many of the NPCs. The way in which you chat to people as you play, finding them and getting information really leads you into the cut-scenes which develop the plot and you'll find yourself eager to see, and hear, the next event."
gamerankings
Conflict: Desert Storm (SCI/Pivotal)
- "The sound effects and voice-overs are professionally done, which is a big plus."
actiontrip
"...from the voices of your soldiers you are commanding to the voices of the enemy to the sounds of the guns, tanks, aircraft all sounds very authentic.
The tone of voices also change, when your in peacetime they are as cool as a cucumber, but during a firefight there going to scream at the top of there lungs, almost rupturing your eardrum (Ok, I was exaggerating, but you get the point.) The sound compliments the game play very well."
videogamereview
Wipeout Fusion (Sony)
X Beyond the Frontier (THQ)
Fuzion Frenzy (Blitz) - "The voice acting is also really good in this game, your characters reply to victorys, loses, etc, and the game also features the best announcer in the world. This guy announces the games, and announces the victor of the games (and always in a different tone of voice). I challenge anyone not to laugh when he screams "FUZION FRENZY" as if his head is going to explode."angelfire
- "...This game is so fun, and the amazing attention they do to voice over specific sounds is amazing. "
gamefaqs
"...As far as the voice acting goes, I was pleasantly surprised, after hearing the painful music, I suspected the voices would be positively awful. Turns out I was wrong."
gamezilla
Stuart Little 2 (Sony)
Ballerburg (HD Interactive/Ascaron)
"...the voice commentary helps this title a lot. Also, the leading females have great voice-overs, and it really sounds like they mean what they're saying, instead of just blindly reading from a piece of paper."
