Elizabeth in Bioshock Infinite is the best voice acting ever in a game IMO

Hands down the most authentic and heartfelt performance in a video game ever by a voice actor. I am on my third play through and I am just amazed by how real she makes Elizabeth. Her name is Courtnee Draper and has a very unassuming résumé, what a gem Irrational found with her.

Excellent work as well, without a doubt.

Just Cause 2 will beat any voice acting ever.

Both are great, but Vaas definitely takes the cake.

Too bad the overall game is alot more meh than Bioshock.

Definitely great. I've been playing FC3 this weekend and I've enjoyed Vaas being onscreen.

Haven't heard enough of her yet, but I think that Kaine from Nier was the best vocal performance I've ever heard.

It was too obvious to even be a troll.

Probably the worst voice acted game this side of the CD Zelda game.

David Hayter as Solid Snake is a good one

There are a few voice actors who have defined a game or a series:

Nolan North in just about anything (Nathan Drake, Deadpool, etc.)

David Hayter as Solid Snake

Jennifer Hale in just about anything, but especially for the female Sheppard (Mass Effect)

Ali Hillis as Lightning (Final Fantasy 13)

Rob Clotworthy as Jim Raynor, Jim Harper as Arcturus Mengsk (Starcraft)

Debatable whether you could lump Cammy Luddington (Lara Croft in the new Tomb Raider) in that group as well.

I agree with you because she has such a wide range. Vaas has to stay inside his little range for the whole game (or should I say half game ) and that's why I'd take Elizabeth. She was a really good character

From what I've read that isn't gonna change in V. It's hard to see a character as anything other than the voice actor if it's a celebrity, given that they are going story heavy they probably don't want that.
