Well since all the new games have voics acting (Like SFA and ED) But do you think new games like Mario will have Mario specking in full voice and not just theses couple "grunts" he makes, or more important, do you think we will get to hear Samus talk for the first time? If so,what do you think they'll sound like? Do you think all games from now on will have voice acting on Gamecube?

I don't Mario will ever say anything besides "Its a-me! Mario!"

Metroid would do good with voices, as long as Samus doesn't talke too much. She should be quiet.

But then he'd lose personality and just become tedious.
Who wants to hear an Italian while trying to play a game?

Samus speak?? Nahh...

I mean when you play the SNES version you feel like you are controling a damn robot not a person.

Also what kin of voice could they give here, and imagine if we see here without here gear.

*raises hand*


Besides, it would ADD personality not take it away.

You can't add many more voices to Mario, the amount in Mario 64 was fine. I mean, how annoying did those voices get in Super Mario Advance? Very annoying...

Remeber in Sonic Adventure 2 when Knuckles says something like "We've go to save the world" in a deadpan voice. That really didn't add any personality to him.

And every time Mario say "it's me. Mario!" in a mentally disabled manner I want to break his face.

See, if he doesn't speak, there is territory for imagination amongst the gamers' part. We concoct our own personality of Mario.

That's true, but Sonic has a bad ass attitude and a stubborn character.

Mario on the other hand makes dumb and annoying sounds, and sometimes says 2-3 words. It would be best if he totally shut up.

But it will be cool if they develop a Samus's personality... kinda like in Max Payne.

EDIT: I know it contradixts to my post above, but I think they should either make Samus a bright character, have her totally shut up.

Sonic wasn't always this way. It's when they totally destroyed the series and character on Dreamcast. He used to be very cool in Genesis games. I just pretend it's a new hedgehog.

Still he's the best mascot ever. Although Shadow is plain "cool".

I hate how they made tails so gay.

Back on the voice thing, i think games like PD will have some full voice acting, along with perfect lip movements.

They were quite cool, and Sonic was always a bit like that.
Example: one time Tails thinks Sonic's dead. So he's saying somehting like 'He was the best Hedgehog ever!' and then Sonic re-appears and says 'Tell something new for a change!'. :D And that was at least 6 years ago!
