"The actors who lent their voices to Turok are a testament to both the magnitude of the project and the interest of top-notch talent," said Josh Holmes, vice president and general manager of Propaganda Games, the Vancouver, British Columbia-based developer. "The characters in the story are paramount to the experience and we have assembled an outstanding cast to assure high quality performances across the board."

If disney cant get good voice actors for movies the ones they get for games are bound to make me sick (well more sick).

I watch ALOT of anime, the japanese voice actors put most of the disney ones to shame, ok so a couple of the voice actors are pretty decent but they just never seem right to me.

Yes, most English subs of anime are atrocious, but Unless they announce that Turok has been bought by Sunrise and re-designed into an anime series then I can't see how that is relevant at all.

It's shaping up to be quite a successful return for Turok. I wish they would also extend their release slate to PC (or atleast attempt a release on the Gameboy Advance icon_razz.gif)..

I've never heard of any of these names...

Oh, except for Greg Norman icon_smile.gif

Are these people known for big Hollywood movies, or something else?

Ron Perlman was Hellboy in the recent Hellboy movie.

Ron Perlman is all things to all men, simply because he did/does the narration for the Fallout series.

Wow Timothy Olyphant thats awesome. I loved the trailer for this game, it looks very action packed. This is a must buy for me.

Is that Chris Judge as in Teal'c? If so, I am totally there.

I love how the majority of Ron Perlman's roles are either voice-work or under several pounds of makeup. Even the offensively ugly can be famous icon_lol.gif

As if I wasn't sold on this already, this has just sealed the deal. All those voice-overs could mean you might actually have comrades with you for most of the game....which I prefer nowadays....just seems less lonely and more like an adventure.

Ron Perlman does more voice-acting for games than any other celebrity I can think of. The guy's a legend! Some recent work includes: Conan, Justice League Heroes, The Outfit, Teen Titans, Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, Gun, Halo 2, Lords of Everquest, Batman: Rise of Sin Tzu, Truce Crime: Streets of LA, Forgotten Realms: Icewind Dale and not to mention all the Fallout stuff including Tactics and the yet to be released part 3.

I wonder what publicity stunt they will dream up for the launch of this one.

I liked the part where you led me in with Elton John.

Made me stop and reassess my interests - and to a lesser extent my sexuality.
