What's some of the worst voice acting you've heard in a video game? Bonus points for "so bad it's good".
Awesome vid guys!
Game Sack Shenmue
Mission Impossible 64. The random lines in the game have never escape me. Sometimes I’ll find myself saying “got it!” when I find something lost in that bizarre Ethan Hunt voice actor tone. The “Rock Steady” is the best.
Resident Evil 1 and Final Fight Sega CD...." Hi Hi Hiiiiiii "
Rune Factory on PS2 (had to mute that game), Prince of Persia on Mega/Sega CD and pretty much every npc in Shenmue
Dying of laughter at the Street Fighter Alpha III announcer guy, especially when he's literally standing there watching his friend get eaten and doing absolutely nothing. My first thought was the MGS game over screen too which made me laugh even harder. A+ editing on that one Joe.
I can’t go to sleep without hearing Joe and Dave’s smooth, buttery voices. Does anyone else go to sleep listening to their videos, too?
I fall asleep to these guys talking too
No, I haven't watched all of them. So I end up watching instead of sleeping.
Yea same here
Yep
what happened to the older guy? now its just one!
OH MY GOOOOOOD!
RGT 85 rip Joe's hair
RGT 85 GOD DAMN IT!!!
never say never, aging fuck us all.
16:12 - Hahahahahahahahahahahaha...
They're eating her.
And then they're going to eat me!
Oh my gooooooooddddd!
The Symphony of the Night voice acting is pure gold. Nothing will ever beat that glorious mixture of overacting, overall cheesiness and poor translation. Just like with the old Resident Evil games, I wouldn't have it any other way.
They went to the Game Sack school of acting.
for8bitgamers ~ wooden....gotta see there shenmue skit they did a few years or so ago.
I was expecting that line as soon as I saw the title of this episode. I'm a little disappointed that Joe and Dave never said it.
You say like it is a bad thing.
Funny note: Richter's voice actor is the same guy who did Chris on the original Resident Evil. I guess not many people ever noticed that. One of the worst (yet hilarious) voice actors I know.
Holy shit, now that you say that, it’s so obvious.
These guys came right out of the Gamesack School of Acting!
"Don't come, don't come!"
Ah, if I had a nickle for everytime I heard that...
Lol omg funny!!!😁😁😁
Why would anyone want to hear this terrible voice acting?
To suffer like G did?
Judgement: Seems like my advice had no effect.
Player: Save it for the afterlife, villainous scum! I am going to make sure that you suffer... Just like G did!
Judgement: Suffer like G did?
Player: That's right! Suffer like BEEPing G did!!!
House of the Dead 2 gets bonus points for the bizarre English script. It's practically post modern poetry.
Suffer like G did?
"Get ready fighters! : GODDAMNIT!!" Haha
“Feel the power of my… mAaaAgGiiiiiiiCcC!” That is possibly the best line reading I’ve ever heard. Perfection.
"Graduates of the GAME SACK School of Acting! - GAME SACK"
Who's sack is it , and why does he have loads of games in his sack? Who put them there, was it some kind of accident?
I can assure you the voice acting in Dynasty Warriors is still bad. DW9 is probably the worst and it came out this year.
Mega Man X7 and Prince of Persia for Sega CD are also very bad. And any of the Zelda games for CD-i.
Console Wars Oh hi, Console Wars! Fancy seeing you on Game Sack. How'd the Sparkster stream go?
Sega CD PoP almost killed me. I still laugh at it.
What about Hotel Mario? Or any other game for the CD-i?
Also Megaman X4
WHAT AM I FIGHTING FOOOOOOORRRR
whatdoyouthinkyouredoing -colonel
we have nnnnnnnnnnnnnnochoice -general
Yeah, X4 has to be included if they do a part 2...lol.
Still the best Megaman game of all time tho imo. Playing as Zero is the most fun you can possibly have playing a Megaman game.
Still doesn't come close to "Doctor Whywee".
Great episode. The dialogue between Richter and Dracula has been permanently embedded in my brain for how cheesy it is. I look forward to the next worst voice acting episode!
Valis is a Japanese game right? They probably said “varis” because the script wasn’t changed from the Japanese pronunciation which wouldn’t have used L
Will Bachinski I was surprised that they didn't think of that!
That's exactly what happened.
That's lazy translation for you.
I recall that Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed has the same thing, with the announcer mentioning "Girius" (instead of Gilius) and occasionally mispronouncing "Danica".
Some other games like Tales of Symphonia and Freedom Planet seem to have used some old spellings in the actors' scripts as well, though it didn't result in R/L issues in those cases.
Sirynx77 I've seen lazier. Zero Wing is a prime example. "WE GET SIGNAL," and all.
Joe is going to look like Ron Howard when he hits his 50's.
So in 7 years
Will he have a hot daughter too?
Moar like Ron Hubbard 👌🏻
I hope this video contains Jill Sandwiches and piles of secrets
You steal mens souls!
It's not bad voice acting in Symphony though...just bad dialogue.
"You FLAMING IDIOTS!"
What about a pile of Jill Sandwiches?
Cloud Strife Or piles of secretly miserable Jill sandwiches
"As the President of the United States, I ask you: SAVE ALL MANKIND."
"..........................I'll try."
Gee, no pressure.
Dr. Light sounded like an older Elmer Fudd.
Zeldas Champion meanwhile, in the Mega Man 11 trailer...
agreed
Mist X Be vewy vewy quiet, I'm hunting Mega men.
OK you got me
Be vewy vewy quiet, I'm hunting Dr. Wahwee.
Fixed. ^
My other favourite Guy Kazama line, "I don't like roast pork!"
Ah... the famous line that gives the game it's context. Without this line, all would be lost.
Why only 210k subs in 2019? Bestest show on the internets
25:32 OH NO! Not Doctor WAHWEE!
Still laughing at his voice to this day lol.
Don't worry! W-Megaman will stop him!
I don’t even think they graduated from the GameSack school of Acting. They were probably some dropouts.
I think some of them are bad because the one guy in the office that "can speak english" did the translation and it sounds hammy when acted literally.
DAMN YOU GAMESACK!
Don't you dare talk bad about Castlevania voice acting!!
There's nothing more cool than "Have at you!"
😂👍
I genuinely miss terrible voice acting the same way I do chiptunes. Gaming lost a good chunk of its identity as a medium as it became better and better at aping film and television.
I miss chiptunes but I don't miss bad voice acting.
Will Mistretta I agree. Bad voice acting in video games is kind of a lost art nowadays. I miss the cheesiness that they used to provide.
Some indie games still have terrible voice acting.
OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!! I can't help but agree.
The Konami X-Men arcade game has some great one liners: “Juggernaut will flatten you!”, “X-Men, welcome to die!”
It kills me every time that House of the Dead girl says "don't come! Don't come!" Hahaha. Yes, I'm juvenile
dmjsra04 😂😂 I mean who would choose those words tho.
Resident Evil 4 has an even better instance of "Don't come!!!"
@@samhackett5715 I gotta see that
Code Veronica X on the PS2 has some of the best awful dub work I've ever heard. "Fatherrrrr!" "...Steeeeeve..." Man, you gotta check it out, it'll change your life
Every 2 weeks you guys restore my faith in TH-cam. Thank you!!
OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Yes my son ? What my I do for you ?
23:42 "I didn't kill Bill Robbins...". Kinda remindes me "The Room" "I did not hit her".
I wanna hear you guys redub some of these games!
"save all mankind!", "............. I'll try" haha the best!
I'm from brazil and I usually play games in english because uh... the voice acting in portuguese, most of them, are terrible. The only one game that have good voice acting that came to my mind is Grim Fandango.
Long-waited episode I was always looking for!
Ah, another great game sack video with audio levels mixed perfectly to room temperature!
“Sorry ladies first doesn’t apply on the battlefield”
O man I shuddered hard at that one ughhhhhhh...........😫
😂
I haven't laughed like this in a while
Wow so the "don't come" line in HotD2 is a reference to Time Crisis, surely? The voice acting of the whole game must be a parody
Perfect way to end a Saturday night.
When Barry says "Jill sandwich" he splits Jill's name into two syllables with such emphasis that it almost sounds like "Jiggle Sandwich." 26:21
I was itching for some more Sack!
Chris Sukosd i was just itching my sack
Reminiscent of early GameSack episodes, brilliant stuff.
I unironically enjoy SoTN's voice acting. It's a product of its time.
10:20 "Sorry, but ladies first doesn't apply on a battlefield!"
Good to see you two again and still looking great! I love cringy voice acting in games like horror, as it lightens the mood. 10 out of 10 snaps!
House of The Dead 2 gets my vote for best voice acting. When I bought HOTD2 for my Sega Dreamcast at launch I had no idea of the absolute hilarity I would be subjected to. My favorite thing about that game is the innocent victims...they will go from running for their lives while screaming to thanking you like they're ordering a pizza. It's so deadpan and purposefully lifeless you can't help but laugh. Great stuff.
Victim: "Oh my God it's going to kill me!!!"
Also victim: "Have a power-up."
Light Gun games always seem to have pure voice acting gold.
Fun fact: the original guy who did Richter in Castlevania SOTN also did Wild Dog in Time Crisis. Both bad voice acting games.
That skit is so good. Just perfect. Miss dave these days. Still love you too. Keep it up! (Please) thanks
I remember joking about the Dr. Wawwy bit at school when MM8 was freshly released, also with SotN and RE. Thanks for the nostalgia trip guys!
i have this thing with game sack that i usually dont watch an episode until a newer one is released, so that if you guys one day decide to call it quits i can at least have a last episode to watch. this channel is awesome and inspiring, great work. have a nice week
I think my favorite bit of bad voice acting was from the bad ending of Alone in the Dark 2008.
"I'm the Light Bringer... I'm the f***ing universe!! Did you think I'd come alone...?"
Another being Todd Howard's character in The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion.
The other one being the entirety of the voice acting in the first Two Worlds.
Two worlds is horrifically bad across the board, especially thr voice acting
"How dare you interrupt my family vacation RAAAAAAAA-"
Tidal Yacht Charles was Mario back in 64 though... This wasn't the first game with Charles.
"Junior, I've got something... difficult to tell you about Princess Peach."
Or Peach's own line at the beginning: "Ohhhhhh, look at that!"
They changed the "misrable little pile of secrets" line?
Oh man these were ALL hilarious but the dialog at 10:00 takes the cake
You should do a GS on mistakes in games, like the one lady in Oblivion who messes up her line so she says it twice, completely uncut.
No Zombie Revenge or Deep Fear? Ultra Unsubbed HD 2.8 Final Mix: Game of the Year Edition!!!!
This guy knows where it's at!
This guy knows where it's at!
This guy knows of the guy who knows where it's at!
See? This guy knows too!
It'll never be as good as the classic Super Unsubbed 2 Turbo Championship Edition.
13:47 - "DON'T COME! DON'T COME!"
14:01 - "JAMES, COME QUICKLY!"
Um....okay.
My favorite from RE1:
Enrico: "Is that Jill?"
Jill: "Is that voive... Enrico's?"
...
...
...
...
...
...
Enrico: "Yeah..."
Ha ha. Mine too. I love too how he says yeah. Like he isn’t sure. It’s like yeah?
There eating her... and then they are going to eat me!!!!
Oh my Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahd
*They're. Why doesn't anyone know English anymore? Why is everyone so retarded these days? Did they not go to elementary school or something?
Dynasty Warriors 3... takes me back man love the game and that cheesy voice acting... Thanks for the hilariously great episode Game Sack.
The tone you take with your kid when they spilled milk on the floor: (deep voice) "Oh No! What happened!?"
=D
but HOOOWW do I get back to Tokyo?
Seriously though, Chaos Wars only has an English dub due to Sony's mandates, and the English producer hired his family (I believe the word for this is "nepotism") to be cheap.
The worst part about the voice acting in that game is that it sounds like they didn't even try.
"For the voices they picked some random guy from inside the building" -Dave
Yeah... that sounds like something they would do! Yeah... yeap!
For non native English speaking people many of these games sound fine^^ I totally get why the Japanese were not able to notice something went wrong :-P For me the PC Engine CD games are most obviously flawed. Much of the rest is kinda "normal" to me^^
“People will hate you Steve if you’re too stingy.” Loved the way the voice actor pronounced “stingy”. LOL
[Looks at time]
"My gosh! Where did the time go? I NEED to get some sleep."
[Sees Game Sack uploaded]
"But I can spare exactly 30 minutes and 18 seconds."
Executer 66 r
Executer 66 I read that in a wooden manner. This video must be getting to me.
The voices and dialogue of the Sega lightgun shooters is part of the fun. I don't want it in any other way!
I had no idea that Ghost Squad is such a phenomenal game - and it looks like it can be had rather eBaysily. I’m gonna have to dust off my Wii now.
Ghost Squad is indeed one of the 30 or so games on the Wii, that an adult person can play and that is actually quite good. It's not as good as House of the Dead - Overkill (that game can't be beaten) or Mad World, but it's still a good lightgun shooter. There is also a double pack of 2 arcade ports: Gunblade NY & LA MachineGuns. Also lightgun shooters. Afaik is this the only port of these games to any home console. They are also ok and the disc can be had for less than 3 bucks new.
Frank Schneider, Less than $3 where? It's over $25 on eBay.
Oh, ok. I bought my copy for 3 bucks new on Amazon around 3 years ago.
The Jill Sandwich may just be the most epic line in video game history!
Something about the old Resident Evil voice acting just fits that unnatural, weird ambiance the game has going in general. The VA work is incredibly off about everything in a game that's trying to make you uncomfortable and it just adds to it.
REmake, while a better game in general is just missing that.
Context: Chaos Wars was voiced by family members of the other localizing staff members because they didn't have the budget or time, all because of Sony of America's old bullshit policy of not allowing Japanese voices without an English counterpart in games. It was this or no dialog at all, and they already spent the money to get the Japanese voice license, like a responsible localizing company. SoA finally let up on that stupid policy in the PS3-era.
The voices in that vampire night game reminded me of Deadly Premonition.
The Jill master of unlocking was the first thing that came to mind! Thanks for noticing it =)
Stop!... dont. open. that. door.
15:55 “get ready fighters! GOD DAMMT!”
🤣🤣🤣😭😭🤣😭🤣😭😭🤣😭😭
The Jill sandwich line is classic..lol
Best part about the Report from hell Brisco scream, is the fact after the dead body fall's out of the locker he looks at the body for a whole 4 seconds before he screams XD
It's actually perfectly normal for SWAT teams to handcuff hostages, odd as it may sound. I guess it's so they don't interfere
Could be, or just to get everyone out safely so they can sort out who everyone, is when the area is secure. Happens often in police raids.
That outro scene is worth at least another 200k subs. Holy hell.
Am I noticing a new format for the show? I like it.
“I don’t wanna be in that club!”
Dave totally missed out on a good opportunity to take that snatcher while joe was distracted
I always thought there was something off about the voice acting in Perfect Dark (N64).
Judah Earl, It's slightly overacted, but in a way that gives it character, I think.
They used voice acting from the developers :)
I thought the acting was kind of flat, if anything- at least when it came to the minor enemies. Like some dude (who was not an actor) was just reading the lines.
It's also kind of funny to recognize when one actor is playing a few different characters, or to notice the slip-ups when they put on a (mostly decent) American accent.
3dmarth...You bitch! *dies*
It's odd because Rare was usually great when it came to music and sound effects.
I’ve missed this channel. There’s no way I can catch up on all the content Can I? Better make sure TH-cam doesn’t take this off my radar again
I cant believe it took you 13 and a half minutes to mention House of the Dead 2!!
Guys I've been watching your videos for years now and I really have to compliment you now. you are so sympathetic and your videos are so professionally produced, I hope you continue for a long time.
🤗👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Sorry for my bad english
my fave bit in HOTD2 is "G's blood stains???" like they recognise a person's blood.
When you showed Resident Evil you missed to include the horrible acting as a whole in that ultra-cheesy intro in Full Motion Video. Hilarious.
You guys know a thing or two about bad acting don't you 😏
I missed the new video. I guess it's because I wasn't having a beer because that's always when I see you guy's notifications. Cheers Joe and Dave! Love you guys!
"How do I get to Tokyo? (pronounced incorrectly)" "What's Tokyo? (pronounced correctly)" 5:20
I've come back to this episode twice and it is a riot every time. I can't help but burst out laughing at the, "People will hate you Steve!"
Dynasty warriors 9 voice acting. Not even funny bad, just low effort why even bother bad.
Why do they always us “ Don’t come”? Are they screwing or something! Don’t come! Pull it out!
I want to marry DAVE!
Halfway in, you guys already gave me a few good chuckles. :D
Hopefully I'll see Gaia Seed's intro mentioned too. That's pure gold.
