In IL-2, they use the same voice actor for the british pilot cut scene narratior and the russian pilot narrator, but the thing is, it doesnt even work... can you say "Enemy at the Gates"...british actors trying to pull of russian charatcers, and Ed Harris as a Nazi German who speaks like he is a GI Joe.

So as far as IL-2, its this weird Henry Kissinger like voice with intentional deep voice quality , and its so halfassssed like half the time he will decide to make it sort of british, then in mid-sentence he will give up. And it's the "same" voice actor for the russian pilot narrator....so bad

and whats worse, the in game voices, like when u give orders,...have totally different voices than the narrator, even if they are supposed to be the same character!

Burnout: Paradise. It got so annoying that I started to deliberately crash my car hoping that the death of my driver would mean the voices would stop. Then the voice would pop out of nowhere exclaiming how the vehicular suicide-homicide was totally rad... it was a pretty vicious cycle that lasted a good hour.

Wait, is it the same voice actor just attempting a Russian accent? I literally just bought the game today and am only 3 missions in (loving it, by the way). I like his voice, though. The writing, if anything, leaves a lot to be desired.
