Just a little of what's been said in the press...
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)
"The best part of this game without a doubt is the sound! The voice acting is brilliant, especially Wallace who is played by the brilliant (British!) Peter Sallis who does the voice of Wallace in the films. The music is also brilliant and so are the sound effects like the bun gun and the other array of weird and wonderful gadgets." gamespot
"The voice-acting and dialogue is spot-on, faithful to the films, and gorgeously Northern." vgpub
"The voice acting, sound effects and soundtrack are all top shelf." cheatcc

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.

the voice-overs are nothing short of the best comedic delivery in gaming today.

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)
"Incredible voice acting dominates this game..." pc.ign
"...Of course it is always the voice talent that truly brings a character to life. In Sleeping Dragon, that was exceptional." mrbillsadventureland
"...coupled with excellent voice acting and well-written scripts, creating the closest thing to an interactive movie we'll probably ever see." sony.gamerweb
"...beautiful visuals and superb voice acting." clanlinks
"The voice acting is wonderful..." digitalentertainmentnews
"From Nico's French accent to George's believable "Yankee Lawyer" silliness, it is a pleasure to listen to the game." IGN
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)
"...excellent voice acting..."xboxgamers
"...the voice acting heard in the cut-scenes of this title is top-notch."
cybergamingnet
"The cut-scene voice acting is also above average..."

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."
"...voice acting is well done."
"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."

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."
gamershell
Edge of Chaos
"...Good graphics and voice acting."
