I think the guy who did Spyro did a pretty nice job. Crash's was a slacker.

Well, it's certainly not whoever does Tidus's voice. XD

David Hayder for some reason reminds me of Steve Blu, voice-wise. No idea why though. :)

Stephen Russell - best known for his voice acting for Garrett (the master thief) in Thief: A Dark Project, Thief 2: The Metal Age and Thief: Deadly Shadows. He pulls off the cynical world-weary thief really well and with great sarcasm and genuine humour.

I barely pay attention to game voice actors other than to note whether I think a voice works for a certain character. Therefore, my favorite one is by necessity the only one who made enough of an impact for me to remember: Matt McKenzie. He has been the voice of Auron in FFX, FFX-2, and KH2.

David Hayter all the way, man...

Snake is teh awesome... As is Big Boss... After that, the little girl who played Laura in Silent Hill 2... Because she's, like, the ONLY real little girl in the history of Video game voice acting...

Cuban-American actor Tony Plana did an excellent job as the voice of Manuel Calavera in the game Grim Fandango. His line "Run you pigeons, it's Robert Frost!" is one of my all-time favourite lines in any game and / or movie.

Or Yuna in X... I was so happy when my friend said that she improved in X-2. Too bad X-2 is... well, X-2 :/

I dunno, I think that there's a ton of great voices^^ Even though I much enjoy the billingual options like on my Sonic Heros and .hack (with their great Japanese seiyuus^^) I gotta hand it so some of the english VAs for games... Most of the time I think they do a great job. Key word: most.

David Hayter rocks. He also reminds me of Steve Blum, who I believe has had some video game roles in addition to anime.

Also, I've gotta mention Johnny Yong Bosch for his roles in games such as Grandia III and the upcoming Devil May Cry 4. He's always good in his anime roles, too.

*raises hand* One more David Hayter fan. His was the first name that popped into my mind. I can see I'm not alone. I'm also a big fan of the computer voice that said "Double Dribble" at the title screen of the Double Dribble NES game.

I'm going to have to go with David Hayter as well. He just has an awesome Snake voice. I hope he gets some lines in SSBB.

David Freaking Hayter. Any man whose voice training regimen involves whiskey and cigarettes is okay by me.
