Wayne Newton, and Marcus is back! : Fallout: New Vegas

» Fri Dec 24, 2010 7:19 am

That is a hell of a line up.

Wayne Newton
Matthew Perry (Friends),
Zachary Levi (Chuck) and, of course,
Felicia Day (The Guild),
Danny Trejo (From Dusk Till Dawn).
Ron Perlman (Hellboy)
Kris Kristofferson (The Blade Trilogy)
Rene Auberjonois (Boston Legal, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine)
Michael Dorn (Star Trek:The Next Generation)
John Doman (Mystic River, The Wire)
William Sadler (The Shawshank Redemption)

I guess someone read all that griping about reused voices from OB (wasn't me)

plus i doubt obsidian would make Marcus an idiot or senile. he has been the most asked for character to return. so i really dont think they would betray the fan bas of the original 2 fallouts

Im not saying that, consequences on the mind includes perspective and outlook. 100+ years is a lot of time to think, especially when you are part of the minority of your kind who is 'intelligent' and you know you cant reproduce.

Michael Dorn, principle character on DS9
Rene Auberjonois, principle character on DS9
William Sadler, recurring character on DS9
John Doman, minor character on DS9

I think we need to consider the possibility that New Vegas is an elaborate facade for a new Deep Space 9 game. :lol:

Then this is all occuring on one of Quark's holosuites?

I'm incredibly excited. Holy Crap.

But I noticed something: "Another newcomer who will be familiar to video gamers is Felicia Day (The Guild), who voices the playable character Veronica, a sarcastic Brotherhood of Steel scribe."

What does this mean?

This is amazing news and all, but could I get some proof? Like a link or something?

Well, either Obsidian is loading up the game with named preset characters the player can opt to choose at char creation (ala Fallout 1 & 2) and Veronica is one of them, or it's just usa today writing about something they know nothing about and they made a mistake.

I believe I'll fall in love with her.
Just like I did with Moira and Tulip.

They describe Raul as a "third playable companion" after describing Felicia and Arcade as "playable characters". Im assuming they meant companions on all three

Thankie.

Wow, what a sick line up of actors. Matt Perry is pure win. So, does this mean no more Oblivion generic voices? :foodndrink:

Awesome, Marcus will return and also Michael Dorn will be voicing him. I hope he's a potential companion too, it'd be great to hear him go on about the good old days... again... this time with the events of Fallout 2 included in his reminiscing.

I expect a few references to Chandler from friends, and a lot of sarcasm.

Yes. Oh god YES! :goodjob:

» Fri Dec 24, 2010 7:31 pm

Yes. Oh god YES! :goodjob:

I think Matt will do a good job; he claims he played F3 so much his hands hurt, so he'll be giving it his all, I assume.

And I've just be listening to Marcus on YouTube... :drool: the voice acting on that guy is AMAZING! Can't wait to meet him.

I think reading this line up has been the best news about New Vegas I have seen yet. Marcus is back, so that's a potential super mutant companion much like Fawkes (only more awesome), Danny Trejo as Raul should make his character even more funny from just hearing Trejo's voice, and Rene Auberjonois is the voice of Mr. Freaking House! Oh, and more news on companions is also sweet. It should be fun running around the Mojave Wasteland with Chuck- I mean "Arcade Gannon". =P

Yes, acordianing to ZAX's research, Supermutants are immortal, bar getting murdered or accidents that would cause them to die near instantly, due to the regenetive cells, that cause them to effectively "Stop Aging". I hope he (Along with that robot and Felicia Day's character) are followers.

YES! Looks good.

Also, Marcus outside 'Jacobstown' thats interesting. I wonder if the place has anything to do with the Jacob he founded Broken Hills with. If its the place Jacob originally moved on to, if its a place Marcus had a part in naming in memory of the guy, or if its completely unrelated.

» Fri Dec 24, 2010 6:04 am

I think I'll be trying to find Jacobstown very early in the game.

» Fri Dec 24, 2010 7:39 pm

Marcus was alright, he was no Harold though.

» Fri Dec 24, 2010 2:04 pm

I got a bad premonition about ~~Jones~~Jacobstown. I don't know why but a storm is comin'.
And yay for recurring characters!. While I have not played Fallout 1 or 2 i have done plenty of research and watched a Let's Play or two so I am excited to see any recurring characters.

Just noticed around the town sign there's some big horners, and more importantly, another super mutant.
