If you're like me, you're no doubt ashamed at your inability to say 'EA Sports' like the guy on the advert. Fear not, my friends, I've find a video that has your back. 
 
  

  This got me thinking- How much was this guy paid to say those 8 letters? It must have been a freaking huge amount, really. It's used (or at least, it was used- not sure I've heard it recently) in every single EA Sports advert, of which there are approximately a quadrillion. Being the voice in an advert must be a ridiculously lucrative career, 4 seconds of work for a fat wad of cash. 
 
Though obviously, it's not that easy. There are no doubt hundreds of takes of this somewhere in the EA backroom, before the guy got it bang on in a way that screamed 'Buy this game'. So lets take a moment to remember the people whose voices have become an everyday part of our gaming lives. 
 
Who are your favourites? Do you think you've got what it takes to be this guy? Pray tell!
