Can you imagine Tom Kenny doing voices for OW? *shudders* No thanks.

Arrgh; I know what you mean, hes one of the few big name voice actors I dislike.

OWI always resisted hiring professional voice artists because they wanted to use the characters for multiple games over a long period of time and that would put a massive amount of power in the actor's hands. Imagine if they got to the last game in the quintology and the actor said "I'm not coming in unless you pay me ten million dollars!". They'd be absolutely hamstrung, because the fans would associate the characters with the voices and would be upset if anything changed.

True; but I can't imagine all big name actors being like that, for example...Michael Caine apparently takes almost any role given to him purely because he loves acting. I'm not sure if he'd be a good choice for OW; but I'm just saying I'm sure not all actors are in it solely for the money.
But; that being said, Lorne is certainly one hell of a voice actor. I was really surprised when I heard he voiced the whole cast of AO. :P
