I've been wondering who is doing most of the voice work for this installment?
Normally IMDB has a pretty good list up but it lists Halo: Reach as the movie project, not a videogame like 3 or ODST.
Can anybody shed some light on the major roles (Noble Team and such) or provide a list?
Aside from Nathan Fillion as Buck I didn't recognize much voices!
And to give this topic some discussion value, what is your favorite voice actor for the game?
Campaign or Firefight wise!
I personally like Buck's voiceset for Firefight, but I'm a Nathan Fillion fan...!
Halo: Reach
Game » consists of 13 releases. Released Sep 14, 2010
A prequel to Halo: Combat Evolved, chronicling one of the most cataclysmic events of the Halo Universe through the eyes of a squad of Spartan super-soldiers known as Noble Team. It is also the last game in the series developed by Bungie.
Voice casting
I really cant stand Kat, I don't like the voice work, and her A.I seems much worse than the rest of the noble team. It seems she cant interact with warthogs, i've pulled up next to her many times and she just stands there like a lemon. She even got into the driving seat whilst i was alongside of her and she didn't drive anywhere.... 0_0
I think Kat has a fear of moving vehicles, so I left her behind for a healthy jog!
Didn't dislike her voice work, but her accent was a little over the top at times, especially since there's no squad subtitles (which is bloody shame for non native English people!).

"I always play with subtitles and it is a shame you cant have them ingame.
I think you can, try looking in the Start Menu options, and change the setting from AUTOMATIC (default) to ALWAYS. I have no idea if this is the case or not, I don't use them, but I think i recall this option from Halo 2 onwards.
EDIT
Aahh, just reread what you said, the actual stuff they say whilst running around, yeah, that's a bitch.
Aye, bit disappointed as I love squad gibber!
But it's hard to hear when all hell breaks loose, which in Halo happens around every corner!

Here is the full voice cast from the credits. I'm terrible at pop culture so I'm not sure if I'm missing some hidden celebrity here.
@Artemesia: Are you sure it was Steve Blum ? It wouldn't be surprising in the least but I can't find his name in the credits.
Steve Blum has like, MAYBE four lines in the entire game that I've noticed thus far. But I've heard enough Steve Blum in the last year alone to say with 95% certainty that it was him. I could pick that suave, gravelly voice out in a crowd these days.
" @Hooded: Really? I enjoyed Kat and Jun's voice acting. Probably my favorite voice acting in the game actually. As for the A.I, well it seemed that all of Noble team was a little clunky. No fun running around with any of them playing Legendary. "I didn't like her accent, i'm very racist.
I think her A.I stood out poorly to me because she was in a big enviroment, whenever i'm with the other characters its been in tight enclosed area. Baring in mind I haven't completed the game yet, its possible i'll see flaws in the other Nobles.
Joke about being racist btw.

To fix it, I got out and puched her in the face. She worked fine after that.

Nathan Fillions voice for firefight is pretty much the only thing I have bought... I Liked kats voice, I really liked her line delivery, she gets that great line...
Is Auntie Dots voice actress the same one as the ship computer in Dead Space? Sounds exactly the same to me.
Anyone else find that they -have- to play an F Noble 6? The male voice is so generic sometimes I have a hard time telling if 'I'm' supposed to be speaking or if it's just some Military grunt on the radio. Setting Noble 6 to Female variant seems to clear it up, as there's almost no other female voices going around (and you sound nothing like Kat or Dr. Hulsey)
Side note: I didn't know Parkman and Chuck were in this game...how silly.
