    I was just wondering how many of you guys were aware that Eli Vance from Half-Life 2 is voiced by the same dude that does the voice of Rafiki in Disney's The Lion King.
     
    I first stumbled upon this detail when I captured HL2 into my personal database some time back, at which point it conjured up some rather disturbing images of Eli dancing around chanting "Asante sana, squash banana!" and whacking Freeman over the head (for some reason, a crowbar comes to mind). 

    (For the curious and the lazy, the actor in question is Robert Guillaume.)

    I read that in the enourmous concept art book for HL2 called Raising the Bar(It's roughly 9"x11" and almost 300 pages). I thought it was pretty interesting. That is probably my favorite art book for any game. 
     
    edit: I guess that kind of book is called a coffee table book.
