Who's on your list?

Best:
Martin Sheen (The Illusive Man)
Javik
Garrus

Worst:
Stargazer (old man)
Diana Allers (Cho-bot)

I'll elaborate on the last two.  It's obvious they do not have voice acting in their background.  I understand that; however, their lack of VO chops is painfully apparent because the voice acting otherwise was excellent and above par.  Buzz Aldrin sounded like he was reading the script.  Chobot's tone did not match the mood of what she was reporting or the overall tone of the game itself.  It lacked gravitas.

I think everyone did a phenomenal job. Although I don't like Male Shepards voice, but that's just me. It isn't like he did a bad job...

I don't mind Allers. I bet if people didn't know it was Chobot they would never have noticed.

Allers was alright during her reporting segments, had the whole "detached reporter" tone. But then she just kept talking that way.

I still say Tali had some of the best voice acting. She got across a lot of emotion for a person with no face.

I'm indifferent to her, but I really found her tone to be annoying. Like she was going to say "hey, what can you do" at the end of each report.

Worst= Diana Allers. no offense to her personally, but was very rigid and unnatural.

You do know that the old man is Buzz Aldrin?
(not that I care for the scene, or the ending as a whole)

That's really all there is to say.

Best: so much choice... decisions, decisions...

Worst: Sorry, Chobot, but you should've taken some professional practice before attempting to play that role in ME3... so unemotional and shallow, just really bad. Not on my ship! Make it so, Javik! Throw her out the airlock.

Personally, I think Buzz Aldrin being the stargazer's voice was the ONLY good thing about the ending. Would've been a nice cameo if the ending hadn't been terribad.

Well yea they aren't actors...... just saying

Anyway loved Liz Stroka(Tali's VO) and of course Jennifer Hale is amazing as always. Also I was really impressed by Mark Meer. He's really gotten a lot better. Also I liked who they got to replace Mordin. A little deifferent but still really good.

The kid was meh, but i'm guessing it was done by a kid so I'll let that one slide along with the non-actors

I almost put her down too.  It sounded a little too forced, especially when she adopted that "ethereal sexy" thing.

Martin Sheen and Keith David were hands down the best for me. Lance Henriksen was also cool as s***.

Worst? Diana Allers wasn't really good, didn't care for that much. She should not voice act.

Ashley worked my nerves a little...I'm borderline with her.

I couldn't agree more about Hackett. Grunt makes me chuckle.

I thought it was just me. Her delivery lacks...punctuation. Drives me nuts.


Favourite for me is probably Garrus. He's like the Sam Jackson of Mass Effect; every time he opens his mouth I'm just like "hell yeah".

Keith David and Martin Sheen really stood out to me as being AMAZING in this game, although I think everyone did a great job voice-wise with ME3. I honestly don't feel anyone did too bad, although Yvonne Strahovski felt a bit robotic to me, which is a real shame because I love her voice and character. I think Miranda was just oddly written in this game.

I didn't know who she was before delving into the BSN and I thought her voice acting was terrible from the get-go.

Best: William Salyers as Mordin, I haven't even noticed the actor has changed.
Worst: too obvious to point out, wish they got her face right at least.

I thought it was just me. Her [Liara's] delivery lacks...punctuation. Drives me nuts.

I always assumed it's intentional.
