I didn't read his post as "Me, me, me" but as, "James' legacy is still alive and well."

That's actually quite entertaining because i read it exactly opposite. How about that.

Sweet Baby will probably come in and fuck the narrative all up just like their other contributions to games. I don't have high hopes if Remedy hands this over to Sweet Baby for DEI purposes. If the remakes are terrible gameplay wise or story wise I will stick with the old classics with brilliant performances by James.

We need a thread that tells us what games they are working on, it's a public service
Nah, that's not what that is. It's "Go buy the game if you haven't, come on it's $6".(On sale btw)

I always wanted him to sign my copy of MP3 but I don't think he did con appearances and stuff. GOATed performance from one of the best Third Person shooters ever made. Rest well James.

I agree. Hell, I saw Valves name on a list of customers Sweet Baby does business with, to what capacity I have no idea, but this pandering and cringe DEI narrative shit needs to stop or I will just stick to indie games that don't follow the cult narrative.Fuck!

As I said in the previous thread, it was a treat hearing him play not-Max Payne in Alan Wake 2. One hell of a final performance.

Damn that sucks. Definitely one of my favorite voice actors ever. He's been in so many good Remedy Games, but I have to say, Max Payne 3 was his finest moment. Rockstar used him to perfection. Sucks he won't be around anymore.

A lot of suffering in this world and seeing most of the planet feeling the need to be an additive to it because of their feelings really shows how much of a stain humanity and sentient existence is in general. It will change at all costs

Seriously they might as well shitcan the remakes unless they just re use and touch up the master recordings of his dialogue. James IS Max Payne. The Conroy comparison is apt.
No one can replicate this man and how he did this character. Donāt fucking Kiefer this up.

What an incredible voice actor. So unfortunate.

Yeah, I love Remedy and Max Payne but I also love hearing James. His voice, tone and delivery are just unique and I don't think anyone can really replace him.
I'm sure the remakes are going to add or change some things so recording new lines would be necessary, but I hope after this they tweak the story in a way they're able to incorporate his original recordings into the remakes.

I'm devastated by this. James' voice has been a part of my life for the last 22 years. I love Max Payne 1, it has to be one of my favorite games of all time. I replay it every single year without fail. I was even midway through my annual playthrough just the other day when I took a break. Now this happens. I'm never going to be able to play these games of his with the same childish glee ever again. I'm so sorry man, 65 is far too young to go. Rest easy man, and thank you for making this Jersey man feel at home in gaming.

Had no idea what the guys name was prior to this thread, but his tone and delivery was just perfect for the vibe the games were going for. A voice acting performance that really stood out.

I don't even have words to describe what I feel right now.
There's only one man (but more like a monster) that needs to die right now in the whole world, but instead we're losing good people, great actors etc. which'll be forever missed.
Life is a fuckin' bitch.
RIP James and thank you for everything you've done
