... I'm just going to write this random post here and pray to god that Nathan Fillion is gonna be Vega's voice and that the one we saw in the beta was just a place-holder that Meer did.


^this. Nathan Fillion ftw

What matters is who they use to design the physical model for all the Miranda-like butt shots we are going to get to make up for ME2.

delurking just to let those that are curious know that imdb (not saying that it is necessarily accurate) does not have john cena listed as playing james vega they have someone else listed. so whoever said they cracked it or figured out who the actor is needs to check their facts. If you want to see who it is though you can go to the imdb website and type in mass effect 3 and click look at entire cast he's at the bottom of the page. back to lurking.

A comment I read somewhere made me think either Nathan Fillion (YEAAAAH) or Sam Worthington (he actually wasn't bad in Black Ops, except with him losing his accent on a few occasions) would be his voice actor.

Huh.
Have no idea who the guy is. But google did show what I assume to be him, and he looks very similar to Vega.

On IMDB it says that someone named Jamal Kazak will be voicing Vega.

I think this might be right. They look similar...

@ Sakuragrrl - Thanks for bringing that up! I remember seeing that as well. Honestly I thought the person who said it was John Cena was just joking, I doubt it is him.

& Yep Imdb says Jamal Kazak voices James Vega, he does look like Vega some what as well. Though I have been searching for 30 minutes now and for all that is good I can't find anything of his voice work anywhere online! <_< Its really frustrating! *goes back to searching* :?

EDIT: STILL NOTHING! grrr... anyways we need some Vega on this page so have a Vega!

His name doesn't sound Hispanic. I'm worried that if James DOES end up with his Spanish accent/Spanglish in the actual game that this guy might not get it right. D:

I'm playing Jurassic Park the game right now and one of the characters is Hispanic, but the voice actor does a horrible job with the Spanish accent. It kind of kills the character!

I suspect CatDogCatDog thought that Cena's voice bore a resemblance to James' voice, and he/she invented the cracking thing.

His name sounds like he's from some place near India. Chances are he speaks no word of Spanish.:(

The guy should have a Spanish accent, only, if he was raised in Spain.

been living with that when it comes to Russian accent for years.  its even worse when they attempt to play russians and speak russian.  I mean, I gotta give actors the props for at least trying, but it still sounds horrible.

at least in ME you can kinda chalk it up to the mish mash of cultures, so even spanish accept might not be the kind we are used to.

By a Spanish accent he means any native Spanish accent (Mexican, Puerto Rican, Colombian, Argentinian...), not exclusively an accent from Spain.

Those three differ greatly, being myself Argentinian (wich sounds very italian)... Even in my own country the accent differs from province to province, greatly.

Spanish accent is only from Spain... I only wanted to correct that. Because maybe the guy says that he's Latin American (born in Bolivia, he doesn't goes into details so this is unknown) and not european (in case he really is from Spain), but people expects him to sound like a mexican.

Cracking thing? :huh: Also yeah I hear the resemblance between John Cena and who ever we heard in the beta. Though I am still shipping Nathan Fillion! :P

@ Criz- The picture is adorable! & lol at Kaidan's expression. :lol:

Also I honestly give up trying to find any video clips or voice clips with Jamal Kazak. I found his FB page though, this site that shows everything he has done, plus the idbm page.

He does have a cute smile though! ^_^

You're right. The national accents I mentioned differ greatly. There are at least nine different accents in Mexican territory. I once heard a Colombian guy say that there were two Colombian accents: the Colombian one every Spanish speaker knows of, and one accent in North Colombia which bears a strong resemblance to the Cuban accent (this Colombian guy did sound like a Cuban one). Spain has several Northern and Southern dialectal varieties. But enough about that.

Spanish accent is only from Spain... I only wanted to correct that.


And, as I said, when FoxHound (and I, for that matter) said "Spanish accent" he meant a native Spanish accent, not just an accent from Spain. Maybe he should have said something more specific and geographically restricted, like "Latin American accent" or "Mexican/Central American/Puerto Rican accent" instead, but he chose to use "Spanish accent" with Spanish meaning "Spanish language", not "native from Spain".


Because maybe the guy says that he's Latin American (born in Bolivia, he doesn't goes into details so this is unknown), but people expects him to sound like a mexican.


I don't know if people expect him to have a Mexican accent, but that would be a reasonable expectation. Then again, it would be reasonable for James to speak with Puerto Rican, Cuban or some accent from a Central American nation like Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, etc., too, because people from those countries migrate to the USA and, to a lesser extent, Canada. He could even speak with a native Spanish language accent developed in places outside Spain and Latin America like Miami, Los Angeles, New York, etc. The point is not where James' accent when speaking Spanish is from. The point is, he must believably sound like he speaks native Spanish. He must sound like he speaks Spanish from birth. I don't care if he sounds like he's from Viña del Mar, San Juan or Mexico City. All I'm asking for is that he sounds like a native Spanish speaker, for the credibility of the character to be preserved. I don't want him stuttering Spanish with a thick Boston accent. That's all.

Yup, that's right... here we have an accent for every province (23)... well, not really, there isn't much difference in the southern ones. :lol:

Yeah I get that, the problem was that in some countries Hispanic means a whole different thing.

Hi Negam! ^_^ Ohhh okay gotcha, Thanks for the clarification!

We need some new Vega information. I can't think of any topics. :(

Okay umm... Silly Question time! What kinda of music do you think James listens to while working out? lol I actually tweeted Mac and asked him the exact question but he never answered me. :P Any ideas?

@ mauro2222- There is in the leak. It talks about Fehl and some other neat timbits. The Fight for the Love Spoilers Group has details about it.
