Favorite videogame voice acting

Don't care if this has aleady been done. I wanna KNOW.

I really like the voice acting of BG&E, Beyond Atlantis, and some of Oddworld. Based on snippets, I liked the voice acting of Bioshock, and a little from the Silent Hill series.

I like the voice acting in the first monkey island...

Seriously though, Duke Nukem 3D had awesome commentary from Duke himself.

But in all seriousness I adore hammy voice-acting, so I'm inclined to go for Tales of Symphonia and Final Fantasy XII.

Also Patrick Stewart and Sean Bean in Oblivion were excellent.

Bioshock was fantastic, even if it was mostly voice diary recorders rather than dialogue.

Other than that, the Monkey Island games have always been great. Psychonauts had a huge number of characters and all their voices were perfect for the roles.

MGS3 is pretty good (although MGS/MGS2 has its moments). Oddworld AE has the best Voice Acting in my opinion (Glukkons & Sligs in FMVs, but Stranger's Wrath is a close second). I quite like the Riddick games as well (because of Vin). Resistance on PSP has some good acting too.

I don't pay much attention to voice acting in video games. But I think the voice clips for characters in Breath of Fire 3 are very well done. They fit each character perfectly.

Lost Odyssey has some fucking awesome voice acting.

Also Dynasty Warriors Gundam for "Kamille's a man's name! AND I'M A MAN!"
