Predictions for the Northie for 2011?

How can it not be Portal 2? He's over half the voices in that game. And the Space Sphere was a standout.

For anyone who doesn't know, Nolan North is the voice of every sphere in Portal 2 that isn't Wheatley.

I give the Northie to his work on Deadpool

Anime power up time!

It has to be Uncharted or Portal.

Portal 2 for sure. I laughed so hard when I figured out he was in Portal 2, I started hearing it in the defective turrets, and then the Adventure Sphere left no doubt in my mind.

Also, relevant:

Arkham City as the Penguin.

Arkham City as the Penguin.

The Penguin.

The most powerful man in gaming: Nolan North.

That's pretty good. Tough to argue with the Ghost of Christmas Kick Your Ass.

Arkham City, for the North-on-North factor. It's rollin' in Nolan.

As much as I loved Deadpool in MvC 3, that is more due to the writing. And in Portal 2, his voice is all synthesized. So I gotta go with Arkham City for the wtf moment during the credits when I noticed he was the Penguin.

My guesses:

• The Boss in Saints Row: The Third
• The Penguin in Batman: Arkham City
• The Robot Thingie in Portal 2

It's hilarious how two of the games I have sitting on the table ready to play next feature Nolan North.

Is he in Skyrim too?

My guesses:

• The Boss in Saints Row: The Third

Nolan North isn't in Saints Row: The Third.

Well, they better get some DLC out real quick then.

Definitely Penguin

Penguin all the way.

Dad are you space?

I have just now learned this. That goddamn Troy Baker sounding so much like him. I'm fucking furious right now knowing that I haven't been listening to Nolan North...with a Neo jacket and no pants or underwear on...roaming the streets of Steelport...blowing shit up and calling people a dirty little whore...

Oh God, I want to cry so fucking hard right now.

I think the Northie for best Nolan North voice should go to Troy Baker this year.

The Penguin for sure.

I'm in space!
 
Son, I am so proud of you.
 
Dad... Are you space?
 
Yes son. Now we can be a family again.

I second this

As much as I like him as Drake (how could you not, still one of the best characters in gaming if you ask me).

But Portal 2 really showed off his range as a voice actor, I mean you have the Fact Sphere, Adventure Sphere, Space Sphere and the Defective Turrets, I couldn't believe it when I saw it was him doing them,

So definitely give it to Nolan North, he deserves it this year, lots of tough competition, particularly from Nolan North, I mean going up against such a master of voices is tough but to come out top is incredible and worthy of award.

Oh my, Drake rocks my world. Best single character like, ever!

Surely Marvel vs Capcom coming out twice in one year will earn Deadpool some bonus points?

Portal 2: Space Core

Anything else would be a travesty.

Portal 2, for all the things. I had so much trouble with the Portal 2's boss battle; I just couldn't stop laughing.

If all we're after is quantity.

He should win for Uncharted, but not as Drake. He should win for the agent that tries to shoot Young Drake. Just because trying to kill the younger version of yourself should get you bonus points.

The Penguin is the least Nolan North-y performance this year, and probably deserves it.

I do think his work as Deadpool is pretty phenomenal, though. That's where my heart is.

the penguin, that was the most "wtf, that was nolan north" performance of the year

For his work at Giant Bomb as Nolan North.

SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE.
