Rawr. I was going to use this as a cultural blip...

Still awesome though

#9 and #3 were just absolutely awful.

There are so many gems in this video!

"Before you die, I'm gana tell you a secret, so that you really don't want to die!"

"Mankind has always been the poison."

"Leave me alone, it's men like you that are ruining this world."

Well said.

I'm glad they put Grandia on this list. The voice acting in that game was awful... I even thought so back when I went easy on games.

I had never heard of Michigan: Report from Hell. Looks like Amazon is getting some business this AM.

#3 was stunningly bad. The actor clearly flubbed two of his lines. Was there only one tape? Were they recording his dialogue on the way to the CD factory so there was no time for a retake?

Anyone else surprised there was no mention of Symphony of the Night? I love that game to death but let's face it, the acting was pretty wooden, especially Richter's.

They missed some more great bad lines from Resident Evil 1. Like where they say without any emotion or variation "I hope this is not Chris's blood".
That line has been an inside joke within my family since RE1 released.

Oh man! I need to buy Michigan: Report from Hell!!

I agree with Daniel - SotN should be up there. This was like listening in on a high school drama class. smilies/cheesy.gif

"What is a man? A miserable little pile of secrets!" No idea how that wasn't #1...

My favorite in this video is #40, "Now bear my Arctic Blast!" said as if somebody was trying to win a Most Limp-Wristed Sounding Voice contest.

Wow, #9 was sooo bad. You could practically hear him say "Okay, I'm done. Give me my paycheck so I can get the hell out of here."

Good points: Symphony of the Night totally belongs in here. Maybe the guy who made this video never played it....

"Now bear my artic blast"

I love the use of echo that most of these early voice overs have.

Oh my God! This is the 4th time I've listened to it, and Michigan at number 46 kills me every time!

What is he trying to say!?

"But.. b b b b b"
Nick Giunta , November 13, 2009
"...has decided that mankind...must live.....fffffff....."

Wow, that was amazing! I was starting to wonder why that got #1, then I heard it.

I need to grab the clips of "Now bear my Arctic Blast," and this:

"Tom left a message. He wrote it on the floor in his own blood."
"In his blood? Way to go, kid!"
Marc Boatman , November 13, 2009
Dude, I just found my new pick up line from #5:

"I like girls, but now, it's about justice."

How could that not work?!
Marc Boatman , November 13, 2009
wow...I didn't know Barney Frank was in Megaman 8...he's missed his calling!
