In ME1 Hale was the better Shepard but in ME2 Meer brought a lot more life to his Shepard and kept it going through ME3.

Hale while a great VA came off as too much of a whispering voice for an action hero, but that is just my thought and people are free to disagree with me.

[TenmaTaro]

idk, Hale sounds perpetually pissed off in this one. Which I suppose makes sense given the context...

You're really using the big stupid jellyfish line?
Neither Hale or Meer get that line right. I doubt anybody could.

Keith David could. 

Keith David can say any random combination of words and use it as a pick up line. Hell, he could probably call you a fat, ugly hooker, and you'd be totally fine with it.

Meer has a natural soldier-ish voice, and it worked well. He didn't need to force it.

I'm playing through my FemShep now, and while she's a good VA I find she's trying way too hard to sound 'badass', and adding a sort of raspyness to the end of literally almost every line. It drives me insane. Now that I've noticed it, I hear it in everything!

Just my opinion though.

i have to agree to be honest. 
i never really cared about playing as femshep though, but i do prefer meer's voice to hales. 

[sammysoso]

I think both are pretty great. I think Mark Meer does a better Paragon and Hale does a better Renegade though.

I also remember that Mark Meer voiced a lot of the Volus as well. Amazing talent right there.

And the vorcha too.

[KillerHappyFace]

I used to prefer Meer simply because his voice fit the default face a million times better.

Once I put the time into making a face that suits Hale, I've decided that she's superior. For good reason, too; IMDb her -- she's been in all sorts of roles. Also, she's Samus. (from the Prime series, mind you. Not the awful new one.)

Since then, I've also found a nasally undertone in Meer's voice that always makes him sound like he's about to deliver a punchline. It's one of those things I cannot unhear.

[RogueBot]

I prefer Meer because I think he has better comic delivery. Working in standup/improv probably helps.

He also did the voice for "the Biotic God" from ME2. The guy's just funny.

Hale.

Yeah, it isn't even close who's better. Sorry Femshep fans...

In fact, Hale's delivery of the best line in the game is absolutely horrible.

Wauv, you compare two VA´s on One. Single. Line. In a series of games where both have thousands and thousands of lines.

If Keith David read BioWare's PR releases to us, we would be ok with the ending.

[RyanPun1991]

I played as Femshep first, and tried to play Shep afterwards.
Couldn't do it... Meer is such a bore

[Shallyah]

I agree. Femshep tries too hard to sound badass and I can't get myself to believe any of what she says.

[kookie28]

Hale sounds like a dude trying to sound like a chick. I can't stand Femshep because of her.

If Keith David told us that the ending was the best ending ever, I'd be inclined to believe him.

I think we can all agree Mark Meer is the best voice talent in the industry, such an amazing guy.

Nope, I don't agree with this at all. 

His work is the best I've ever seen, have you even played as maleShep?

Play maleShep its reall good voice work. 

I have, his voice grated on my ears as Shepard. Ironically, I think he did great as Mordin

"enters the thread"
"sees another fanboy complaining about voice actors"
"leaves thread"

[turian_rage]

Hale is perfect for a renegade femshep. Meer is perfect for a paragon maleshep.

[IndustrializedTaco]

I thought both VO's were amazing. Meer's was good in the sense that he has that deep voice that is just awesome. Also he really did amp up the emotion. Hale's was good in the sense that she just is able to emote a great deal. They both have their strengths, and faults.

[Melancholic]

I greatly prefer Hale, and always play FemShep for this reason.

Insightful and funny. Well played, good sir.

[raizathestorm]

I really like male Shepard's voice. It DOES make me laugh a bit when he drops an "Aboot" every now and again, though.

[Kratz]

Yeah, Keith David's work on ME has been awesome.
Epitomised by his delivery of the final scene on the Citadel.
I wish BW hadn't deleted fragments of that convo...but well done sir!
+rep to Meer from me too.
