Bad voice acting/dialogue in games - "HI RYEEEUUUU"

KEHMONN. LITT RAYN NEVAH HURT NOBADDY
LITTS GOW PLAY

Apparently the kid actors were French (?)

It should say something about how bad Quantic Dreams' voice direction is when the most naturally flowing and normal sounding conversations and best story of their entire backlog came almost exclusively from Bryan Dechart and Clancy Brown going completely off-script, and doing stuff that Cage actively hated.
 
I don't know if Phantasmagoria would count because it's live actors but, I don't know where else to share the beauty of this.

It's just not Pokémon Stadium without the announcer (God bless you, Ted Lewis), but let's not kid ourselves, his enthusiasm can't hide the awkward line-reading and mispronunciations of many Pokémon--and "Geevahnee". (Quality sucks in the second video unfortunately.)

DroOOOOUUUWNed...in the GUAD-DAMN RAYN

Why you gotta call me out like this.

And for the record, the game's much easier to listen to in French. It's obvious by the English Dub that the kids and Laura were voiced by French peeps so Laura, presumably played by the same actress, sounds loads better.

Leon Ockenden also seems like a nice guy, they just didn't give him any direction on his voicework or what they wanted. I assume that was the case for just about the entire cast. At least they got Americans for Americans in Detroit.

ALSO also I wanna also mention that one Sacred-Fire guy in Skyrim because his voice single-handedly made me want to throw my physical copy of Skyrim into Mount Doom. "Heey're to disgus the ongoiing draygon hostilitees?"

cant find good clips for:
Chie in Persona 4 vita version, she sounds like she's yelling for most of it (erin fitzgerald)
Devil Survivor Overclocked: Midori WOWZA BO-BOWZA (erin fitzgerald)
There's another VA I don't like named Yuri Lowenthal, but he's not so bad as much as he just has absolutely no variety. He always sounds exactly the same.

The cliff racers make for excellent sport
 
Suikoden Tierkreis. Fucking hell this game...
 
Hi y'all. I can't remember the game's title, or if i ever knew it, but years ago I saw a clip from what looked like an action/sci-fi FPSngame. A character who might have been a Gordon Freeman knockoff said to a meeker looking guy "Is it really so easy?" in what sounded like a very drawn out Australian accent, where each vowel was dragged out. (The two characters were discussing the logistics of launching a nuclear strike or a particle accelerator program, something in that nerdy ballpark). Then there eas a firefight with some goons and the quieter, non-Australian(?) guy was killed. Does anyone know which game I'm talking about? (I don't).
 

A decent little platformer, but the writing tried way to hard to he "hip" and "cool". The game's writing would have been a lot better if was was more self aware/more of a parody of this type of writing style.

And let's not forget this little gem:
 
Dynasty Warriors 3's voice acting was a fucking mess.
 
This classic from Kingdom Hearts 356/2 Days

That game was filled with goofy dialogue.

If you tell me that the official video game tie in for Kick Ass is actually a foreign money laundering scheme, I'd totally believe you. It'd explain this horrible voice acting.
