Characters you never knew had the same voice actor

Archive: 17 posts


One is a pure, bubbly and pretty-as-pink princess who rarely reveals even the skin of her ankle. The other is a sassy, sexy and no-nonsense computer program who has spent her entire existence in the nude. Within the tightly linked and extraordinarily small world of videogame voice acting, however, these two women are the exact same person.

Such behind-the-screen crossovers are countless once you start searching for them. While a physical performer can be typecast or limited by looks, the vocalist is free to transform at will. Good guy or bad guy? Cartoon mascot or lethal assassin? Greek general or Jedi warrior? Human or lombax?

As these 21 strange and surprising matches prove, the best voices can do all of the above.

Funny stuff, guys. Never would've expected some of those pairings, 'specially Liquid Snake...

Hmmm...Something I want to investigate is who is Link and who is Elika. Elika and Link I noticed make this same sound when they do a jump. It's like

"Huf"

Yeah.

Edit: Just looked it up. Turns out Link is voiced by...Fujiko Takimoto. So no. I'm guessing that this Fujiko person doesn't speak english. ...Or maybe she does. AND MAYBE SHE IS ELIKA! OMG!

I was most surprised at Earl Boen as LeChuck. Can't belive I never noticed that.
I knew about most of the others though, I truly enjoy finding out stuff like that.

That was an awesome read! Thanks... the one that surprised me the most was The Boss/Diane Simmons... I should have noticed, and that's going to make Family Guy so much more enjoyable than ever lol

I also read the gameplayer article that was posted at the end of it. I posted both of these up on the games board I go to. Great find.

Cam Clark was Simba, eh?

Although, I must admit... I am sad they didn't include Kratos from Tales of Symphonia in his other games page :/ Ah well...

At the end of the article it mentions a link to gameplayers that has a 6 page article, and covers everything he did.

I already knew about the Ratchet/Tidus connection, but it still caught me by surprise when I first found out a few years back (I just recognised the name in the credits for FFX).

The Bender/Wakka thing, I never realised though.

Nolan North, who does the voice of Nathan Drake in Uncharted also does/did the Prince of Persia and Desmond Miles in Assassin's Creed.

Not to mention was also in MGS4, Resistance 1, Spider Man 3 (movie) and Halo 3.
