The Worst Voice Acting You've Ever Heard

[Nathander]

I'm wondering what some of the worst voice-acting any of you have ever heard is, either in video games or television shows, or any other motives. Here's one of the ones that really horrifies me, especially due to the failure to accurately portray the personality of the characters and....just how pathetic the skills of the voice actors are. I present to you Chaos Wars:

Yep that's pretty bottom of the barrel voice acting right there.

It almost makes me take back all of the nasty things I've said about such awful voice acting from games like


Mega Man 8

Link: The Faces of Evil

Castle Shikigami 2

and

Evil Zone

And yeah, I moved this thread out of spam as it is very conservation worthy and not really spammish at all.

Wow....did they find Elmer Fudd somehow and have him do Dr. Lights' voice for some reason? And while I know Mega Man is sorta supposed to be child-like, did they really need him to sound like he's about to go to kindergarten?

Link: The Faces of Evil

I uncharacteristically forgive the CDi Zelda games for the amount of entertainment they've given me in the form of Youtube Poops.

Castle Shikigami 2

That was....well....that dialogue was bizarrely awkward...

and

Evil Zone

You know....I'm really not sure WHAT to think of that. I didn't think the voice acting was horrendous until we got to the third fight. That game simply sounded like he was so utterly pleased and courteous about killing you in that cutscene.

That said, here's a totally different point: I know want to play this game, if just because it's look intrigued me. For a fighting game, the style seemed AWFULLY cinematic, and I'm wondering how well it actually controls.

Heh, I don't know. I tend to worry over whether or not a lot of what I put up would count as spam.

I always loved how utterly banal everything Richter and Dracula said to each other in that conversation was. You could tell from the beginning that Dracula simply didn't care.

Despite the shaky voice acting, Evil Zone is one of the hidden gems of the original Play Station line up.

It's very easy to pick up and play because like any Super Smash Brothers game, despite the fact that every character has their own move set, every move is pulled off using the same controler motions.

And it has one of the best single player campaigns in any fighting game because as you've just seen in the video the story is set up an interactive anime series, complete with episode titles and previews of "next weeks" episode.

Luigi is not amused!

Seriously, the voice acting sounded like two monotone teenagers.

Here's Hotel Mario with link below.

There have been people who hate the current Pokemon USA voice cast for the series and want the 4K!DS cast back. I've gotten used to them personally, and they have done a respectible job.
