Its rare these days to have Hollywood actors in games today, and even when it did happen it was mainly R* and Bethesda.

I din't like famous actors in videogame.

But if i have to chose, everyone in the cast of yakuza games (japanese actors but still actors) and sylens\lance riddick.

Death Stranding - the thread
Stefanie Joosten as Quiet and also Ellen Page and Willem Dafoe in Beyond - Two Souls

Every other answer is objectively wrong.

 

[SeraphJan]

No Hollywood

Takuya Kimura from Lost Judgement

 

[Happosai]

I'd almost call him ex-Hollywood as he's spent more of his career post-1980's in voice acting but...Mark Hamill.

Do You Remember These Mark Hamill Video Game Characters?

Mark Hamill, most well known for Star Wars, has lent his voice to countless animated characters. Here are some of the best ones from video games.

Ray liotta in vice city

Still is the best protagonist of GTA

Matt perry as benny in fallout new Vegas

Could this be the best Fallout?

The immortal Keith David.

You can't go wrong with him. Just can't. Also, you stole mine

 

[CatLady]

As Martin Hatch in Quantum Break

As Sylens in Horizon Zero Dawn

 

[Soltype]

Mickey Rourke in Rogue Warrior

[TexMex]

 

[Plantoid]

Kevin from house of cards playing villain in cod was very good

 

[azertydu91]

As Martin Hatch in Quantum Break

As Sylens in Horizon Zero Dawn

Yeah lance Reddick is an amazing actor, he has a weird silhouette that gives him some creepy/mysterious aura that works really well.

 

[Fbh]

Mad Mikkelsen in Death Stranding was good.

Maybe it's because of his role in Hannibal, but his face alone already makes him intimidating lol

 

[Rest]

The immortal Keith David.

Four more years!

 

[Rickeh]

Chris Barrie, aka Rimmer from Red Dwarf aka the Butler in the Tomb Raider movies. Voice actor in the Simon the Sorcerer games.

When I first got into PC gaming I just bought stuff from the bargain bins on a whim.. and I took this game home.. not proud but I actually beat this game.

Dennis Hopper was memorable.

 

[zeorhymer]

Not one mention for Sean Bean. I'm sadge.

 

[Rickeh]

Just thought of a bunch more:

Kiefer Sutherland - MGS V
Vin Diesel - Chronicles of Riddick games
Sean Connery - From Russia With Love (rest of the bond games were likeness only? not sure)

 

[Spukc]

HAHAHA MEME

Wing commander is the first I know of.

[fart town usa]

The Illusive Man.

Came to post this, love Martin Sheen's voice. Awesome actor too.

Keith David too in ME, forget his character's name though.

 

[SSfox]

Marshall Law / Bruce Lee

 

[Pedro Motta]

WOW, I'm disappointed.

So many posts and not one Mark Hamill.

 

[Beelzebubs]

Seems weird but Sean Bean in Civ 6.

 

[Vick]

Another vote for Lance Reddick.

His lines as Sylens, on a Home Theatre, are a constant and literal eargasm.

 

[The Lunch Legend]

Jenna Jameson.

 

[SSfox]

WOW, I'm disappointed.

So many posts and not one Mark Hamill.

Oh i forgot about him, he did Joker right? he did freaking awesome for sure!! (IDC about Star Wars games though)

 

[The_hunter]

Lea sedeux in death stranding.

 

[Stamps1646]

Yes, Keanu did a fantastic job with this character. <3

 

[TheInfamousKira]

Really?

Absolutely.

 

[Happosai]

Post #13...

Not favorite, but my greatest 'notables'.

David Bowie in Omicron Nomad Soul. No one every played this game, including me.

Paul Newman, perhaps the greatest actor of all time, co-starred in a crappy CG kids move that got a crappy movie license game on the PS2.

David Bowie in Omicron Nomad Soul. No one every played this game, including me.

I always wanted to play that. looks fucking weird but intriguing with its weird 1v1 2D melee combat and first person gun combat... David Cage's origin story as a developer too lol

 

[BaneIsPain]

Yusaku Matsuda as Jubei Yagyu in Onimusha 2.

 

[Rickeh]

I think Tim Curry wins this thread. Involved in 20+ games as a voice actor. Also live action in C&C Red Alert 3 and Frankenstein:

 

[Y0ssarian]

I just finished Castlevania: Lords of Shadow. Sir Patrick Stewart as narrator and voice actor is good in that. More involved than his 5 min Oblivion performance

 

[Y0ssarian]

Yusaku Matsuda as Jubei Yagyu in Onimusha 2.

I'm considering playing Onimusha 2 next. Either that, Otogi or Zone of the Enders 2

Lords of Shadow also has Robert Carlyle as Belmont.
