Here's a short interview with and about Steve Downes, the voice behind Halo's Master Chief. I particularly like the last couple of paragraphs. Wink

As a video game fanatic, I can't wrap my head around someone not knowing how big Halo is.

Putting that aside, its very humbling to learn how surprised he was. He does a great job- I'm glad he got to see how popular the games were.

I love how voice talent in video games has become a serious production. Cut scenes are like mini-movies now. I recently played Assassin's Creed- everyone from the main character to the walla group was well done. I know of many people who skip cut scenes in older games because the voice over production was so thrown together that it ruins the story for them. I'm extremely happy, as a voice talent and as a gamer, that video games are getting more attention.

Thanks for posting!

I love where his performance has gotten. In the recent games, they have really stepped up the quality of cutscenes and actual storytelling.
