I personally think Half-Life 2's voice acting is extremely good.
Very convincing characters, if you ask me.

gotta be the metal gear solid series. the voice acting is extremely well done and lends itself to the gameplay. I'd daresay the voice acting in metal gear is what makes the series so great besides the actual story.

Psychonauts and Bloodlines.

VTM Bloodlines has to have some of the best characters and voice work in any game to date.

I can't believe no one said GTA 3, Vice City or San Andreas. The cast is stellar and the dialogues r well written and sharp. Samuel L. Jackson, Ray Liotta, Dennis Hopper...

Need say anything else?

I can think of alot of games with great voice acting, but the one that really stands out is Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines. Not only is the voice acting extremely good throughout the game from start to finish, but the dialogue is also excellent. And I can only immagine what the voice actors were thinking when they read some of those lines, the person doing Jeanette and Theresa for example... how she managed to pull that off so well is mind boggling.

besides the fact that the same voice actor is used for many NPCs over and over.... Oblivion has some nice voice acting. I mean when they bring in Patrick Stewart for the voice of the king, theres just no contest right :P

im gonna say only the games I tried.

Starcraft -all their voices are awesome

Warhammer Dawn of War - who can't resist cultists screaming "MY SPLEEEN" and "HOW HAVE WE FAAAAILED???"

Counter Strike - "go go go" sounds cool

HL2

and other games I don't remember.

I think most of the games have good voice acting.

Most of the Lucasarts point-and-click adventures of yesteryears. Examples of which are Grim Fandango, Day of the Tentacle, Full-Throttle.

I totally agree with you! Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines has the best voice acting I've ever heard and the dialogue is also some of the best I've ever seen in a game.

starcraft, command and conquer series, warcraft series, gta series, chronicles of riddick and the legacy of kain series. to name a few..

however the best ever would just have to go to the metal gear solid series.

Hmm, from my own experience which I enjoyed tremendously would be:

- Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines remains my favorite so far, lots of uncensored (vampire) dialog.

- Kotor I,II with first one being very well done.

- Mafia is good.

- Half Life series are great.

- Dreamfall is excellent.

- Chronicles of Riddick never gets boring.

- Call of Duty and Medal of Honor series really make so feel you're on the battlefield.

Probably quite a few more, can't recall at this time.

Vampire has really good voice acting, yes.

But I'm still going to say Baldur's Gate, even though there's probably less dialogue which has been voiced(there's way more dialogue then any game, except those textbased adventures, don't get me wrong :P ) however, the people that did the voices for BG2 must have had some good laughs in the studio, there's dozens of weird accents and it's all pretty convincing.

Grim Fandango and The Longest Journey (the "sequel" is in the opposite end, as the main character sounded too annoying... she was getting so much on my nerves that I actually wished for her death)

Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay, hands down. TrueReligion_

Agreed, not only because they have big-name actors (Vin Diesel, Cole Hauser, Ron Perlman, Michael Rooker, Xzibit), but also because it was so well done. I also remember the lip syncing being really good as well.

Half-Life 2's was also cool, and the facial animations are just awesome. I love in "A Red Letter Day" when Barney is like "I still have nightmares about that cat" and then Alyx says "uuuuuh, what cat?" Oh, and of course the Gman telling you to "wake up, my freeman....wake up and smell the ashes."

Don't forget Sean Bean as Martin Septim and Terence Stamp as Mankar Camoran!

SO thats why he sounded so familiar! Awesome, props to Bethesda for getting him in on it...though its kind of weird having Sean Bean as the hero and not the bad guy (he is such a good bad guy!).

Is so much fun going to imdb.com and seeing all the famous people in our video games. Like, for example, did you know that the guy with the beard from Weeds (the husband of the bi*** lady and father of the huskaroo girl) played the voice of Prince LaCroix or whatever it is? Never played the game but I assume its a big role.

Oh and you gotta check out the chick who played Visas in KOTOR2.....haaaaaaaaaaaaaawt

Legacy of Kain Series because not only are the voice actors good, the characters seem to know how to say things intelligently. for examply you never hear "oh my god the cat died!!!" I'd be something like "As that wretched beast ley skewered on the floor I could only think of what might become of me." Kudos to the script writers :D
