Archive: 67 posts

Thanks to StevenI over on LBW.



It's now been confirmed that Stephen Fry will be returning as our favourite narrator and tutor for LittleBigPlanet 2.

"Also will Stephan Fry return for the voice over?"




"Yup, Stephen Fry is back!"





I'm sure that will bring a smile to a few happy gadder's faces.		2010-05-10 21:07:00

The one thing I was worried about was that Stephen Fry wouldn't be back. Now that he is, my happiness is complete. LBP2 will, officially, be the Best. Game. Ever.2010-05-10 22:00:00

Heck yeah! Stephen Fry's voice acting added a lot of personality to the first Little Big Planet, and I'm sure he'll do a just as good job with this.2010-05-10 22:11:00

And if he wasn't then there'd be no use getting upset about it, don't throw your controller at the cat! It might throw something back and It'll only escalate!

I heard a rumour about he may be doing the voice/sfx for Larry Davinci? (the newspaper fella)		2010-05-13 07:33:00

It does seem Davinci is a mentor, so it makes sense.

I'm glad Stephen Fry is back. (Now if he makes a passing reference to QI or Alan Davies, I don't think I'd be able to contain my fanboy-ism for the man. XD)2010-05-13 16:03:00

Well cover me in eggs and flour and bake my bottom for 40 minutes!!!

This is great news.

The only problem is, once you've played through all of the tutorials etc - you never hear from him again 		2010-05-14 14:06:00

Finally a valid reason for me to see it. Apparently Jhonny Depp doesn't make it a real reason anymore.

I often reply the voiceovers when I'm creating, just for fun. I remember him from Hitchhikers guide.		2010-05-14 14:13:00

If you know the Stephen Fry as the voice of LBP and that only I pity you, the man is genius! Good to see he is back, his voice has a silky quality that is always welcome to my ears. Wonder what he will be narrating to all the new power ups and such, should be fun! 2010-05-19 01:42:00

HaHa yes he's brilliant on QI too. I dread to think what innuendos he'll manage to sneak in regarding 'grappling, magic gloves and boxes'. Can't wait to find out. Unfortunately it will seem like a very long wait.		2010-05-19 01:47:00

I'm not sure that the incomparable Mr Fry (why isn't he a Sir yet? Oi, Your Maj, get on that will you?) knows much about boxes, as such.		2010-05-19 02:26:00

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEWHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

STEPHEN FRY IS A LEDGEND! The old tutorials with him in them were hilarous.

I also love QI

Just some random triva for you.

The announcers? They're awesome.
Anyways, I've never heard of Fry before LBP probably because he just does British broadcasting stuff. I am happy he is returning though. His voice has a nice, calming effect to it.		2010-05-22 23:57:00

Oh God, QI, how I love thee.

I think a UK resident (I'm a citizen, but haven't been there since I was a child) should go here (http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Governmentcitizensandrights/UKgovernment/Honoursawardsandmedals/DG_067917) whilst thinking about Mr Fry...		2010-05-24 07:39:00

I can't believe that somebody from Britain could only have discovered who Steven Fry was from Lbp... Have you been living under a rock for the past god-knows-how-long?

And I have absolutely no idea how much he gets paid Tbh. But I'm still chuffed about his return! 		2010-05-27 22:09:00

Huh, i always pictured him with small glasses, a white mustache, side-comb hair and holding a big book, always adjusting his glasses to read it.

But yay, he's back =D		2010-05-27 22:18:00

I'm 15 and wouldn't consider myself too much of a duffle (I make it up as I go along). Besides, I was introduced to Backadder at a young age so I've known of Mr Fry since I was about 6.		2010-05-28 16:07:00

lol its understandable that americans wouldnt have heard of Steven Fry but being from England and watching him in Black Adder and the likes when I was little, it seemed like such a big deal when I heard he was doing the voice over for Littlebigplanet. I mean over here he's like a British icon, it's really amazing that such a small company, making their first major game title, managed to get such a 'celebrity' to work with them. But now I couldnt imagine the series without him he's pure awesomeness2010-06-01 18:35:00

STEPHEN FRY ! Yaaay, the man has the world's GREATEST voice! But, Morgan Freeman is pretty close behind him . With all the new changes in LBP2, it will be nice to have at least one thing familiar 2010-06-11 04:31:00
