Bowling also confirmed that Craig Fairbrass, who played Gaz in the last game, will be returning. Presumably as another character though, as Gaz is quite dead.

Is it now standard for CoD to have an actor from 24 to do voiceover work? I only pray they don't include Kim Bauer in the next one.
Posted by The_KFD_Case
Looks like we'll have some quiet pleasant and intoned voices to listen to. I'm very much looking forward to this. :)

On the head there snips; Kim is definitely one to be seen but not heard.

That's Modern Warfare 2's IMDB Page ^... And the guy who played 'Gaz' is now playing a charcter called 'Ghost' ?

So maybe Craig Fairbrass will just be Gaz again ? o_O

Good to have Kevin McKidd(Rome's Lucius Vorenus) doing some voice work, well, just so long as he doesn't do that naff American accent from "Journeyman" anyway. :roll:
Posted by Dajmin
His Journeyman accent wasn't that bad, and I thought the show was good too :)

I assume he's one of the SAS characters though, so he'll be allowed to be Scottish this time.
Posted by kimoak
I think if Kevin McKidd used his scottish accent, I'll just be chuckling all the time because I'll be thinking of the 'Love Fist' guys in Vice City :)

So no 50 cent as rumored then. oh well :P
Posted by ensabahnur
yeah i think COD could do with the vocal talents of Jez Torrent :lol:
Posted by DevilsNeverCry
Activision are boosting game prices, claiming that games dev costs more these days, yet they hire the most expensive people to do voiceovers...

We are victims of their ambition, they could try hard, make a great game, and use unknowns to cut costs?

It's just pure cheek I say!
Posted by KMakawa
50 Cent has already done his voice work, and it isnt a rumor it has been confirmed by IW.

He is to be a character's voice in the online multiplayer, not the guy who says "We've got the bomb" etc, ..but one of the guys that get shot at lol.
Posted by bigste26
thank jebus no 50 pence he sucks donky balls
Posted by GTCzeero
Apparently the guy who does the Arbiter's voice also does Captain Anderson from Mass Effect. Great voice.
Posted by ensabahnur
aye and he's also in They Live with Rowdy Roddy Piper. at least lifes gotten better for him :D
Posted by Fastcarrot
They might as well have used unknowns as far as I'm concerned; I've never heard of any of them. Not that it matters, as long as their voices sound good in the game.

i have to agree but kiether sutherland did a cracking job in WaW

you tell em, stick it to the man!!!
Posted by headspin
he was great as pat tate in rise of the footsoldier, read a stack about the retendon range rover murders and he seems to hit the character of pat tate on the head, class act...
Posted by flameswordsman
Would've been better if Gaz and Price didn't die, and actually returned in this one, but ah well....

Least Keith David has a role, that mans a ****in pro. I remember him from way back when he voiced Goliath in that Gargoyles cartoon in the 90's.
