Half-Life 2 Voice Actors Revealed

Thanks to 1UP for its story discussing the full voice-acting cast list for hideously long-awaited FPS Half-Life 2. It's noted: "Only two of the original game's actors will be returning; Mike Shapiro as both the ominous G-Man and security guard Barney Calhoun, and Harry S. Robins as Dr. Isaac Kleiner. Naturally, returning protagonist Gordon Freeman will remain voiceless", before it's revealed: "The voice for Dr. Eli Vance will be supplied by Robert Guillaume, otherwise known as the unforgettable Detective Catfish in the Fish Police TV series. Vance's assistant, Dr. Judith Mossman, will be voiced by Michelle Forbes, known for her roles on Star Trek: The Next Generation, Homicide, and Guiding Light. Oscar winner Lou Gossett, Jr. will voice each and every one of the Vortigaunt alien slaves (his second alien role, after the cult sci-fi classic Enemy Mine)."

  1. Confused by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Don't get me wrong, I love the president. But a recent interview with Irish television leaves me confused. Here are two quotes:

    "People join terrorist organizations because there's no hope and there's no chance to raise their families in a peaceful world where there is not freedom ... so the idea is to promote freedom and at the same time protect our security.

    "These people are willing to kill innocent people. They're willing to slaughter innocent people to stop the advance of freedom," Bush said.

    So which is it? Do people join terrorist organizations because there is not freedom or to stop the advance of freedom?

    Please advise. Thx.
