Retaining the classic 2D gameplay that made the series famous, SOTN's developers thought they would fill some of the extra space on the disc with some digitized character dialogue. +Castlevania:+Symphony+of+the+Night+ Developer: KCE Tokyo Platform: PSOne Year: 1997 Proving that some franchises just work better in two dimensions, Konami hit the mark with Castlevania: Symphony of the Night on the original PlayStation. The thing is, even though the voice acting was terrible, it somehow added to the overall appeal of the game, and really made you feel like you were part of an awful eighties action flick. Nearly everything about the game screamed 'B-grade' - from the graphics and character design, right down to some of the most dodgy voice work put to disc. Although a hoot to play either in the arcade or at home, Time Crisis focused more on the light gun shooting mechanics than creating a technically impressive title. Time+Crisis Developer: Namco Platform: Arcade, PSOne Year: 1997 Let's start our list with a true PlayStation classic - Namco's arcade smash, Time Crisis. Let's take a look back at some of the worst voice acting in videogame history with dialogue so bad, you can't help but love it. Sometimes though, atrocious voice acting can actually enhance the game as a whole, giving it a priceless quality. Unfortunately, for every Uncharted and Metal Gear Solid, there must be a Resident Evil or House of the Dead 2 – both of which sit at the other end of the quality spectrum. Cherished characters such as Nathan Drake and Solid Snake oozed emotion and vulnerability, not just through great character design, but dedicated performances by their voice actors. I was cornered in front of me … and there were people right there,” he said before he began crying.There are many examples of stellar voice work turning certain titles into must-play experiences. “Once I take that step back, I look over my shoulder and Mr Rosenbaum was now running from my right side. I defended myself,” Rittenhouse told the court.
HOUSE OF THE DEAD 2 VOICE ACTING TRIAL
Rittenhouse cries on the standĪfter Rittenhouse took the stand, the trial took an emotional turn when the 18-year old broke down crying uncontrollably as he described being “ambushed” by Rosenbaum, whom he said ran at him threatening to kill him. Swart revealed that it was for bipolar disorder and depression during cross-examination, in turn potentially adding credibility to the idea that Rosenbaum was an unstable aggressor. By asking that question, Judge Bruce Schroeder ruled, prosecutors opened the door for the defense to ask Swart what the medication was for. Prosecutors also asked Kariann Swart, Rosenbaum’s fiancee, whether he had taken medication earlier on the day he was shot. “Well,” McGinniss replied, “He said, ‘Fuck you,’ and then he reached for the weapon.” When Binger pressed McGinniss to concede he did not know what Rosenbaum’s intent was, McGinniss had a pointed – and damaging – answer. It’s not who I am.” Grosskreutz, who trained as a paramedic, testified that he volunteered as a medic at the protest.Īnother witness, videographer Richie McGinniss, described the 36-year-old Joseph Rosenbaum, whom Rittenhouse fatally shot, as chasing after Rittenhouse and lunging for his gun. He has, however, affirmed that he did not intend to point his pistol at Rittenhouse, saying, “That’s not why I was out there.
Gaige Grosskreutz cries as he describes the moments where he was shot by Kyle Rittenhouse. Grosskreutz testified that he carried a loaded gun that night and acknowledged that it was aimed at Rittenhouse when Rittenhouse shot him.ĭuring cross-examination, defense attorney Corey Chirafisi asked Grosskreutz, “It wasn’t until you pointed your gun at him, advanced on him … that he fired, right?” Throughout the trial, several of the state’s witnesses appeared to have bolstered Rittenhouse’s self-defense argument, including Gaige Grosskreutz, the 27-year-old man he injured. “The evidence will show that hundreds of people were out on the street experiencing chaos and violence, and the only person who killed anyone was the defendant, Kyle Rittenhouse,” Binger told the court.ĭefense attorney Mark Richards pushed back against the claim, arguing: “The government can refer to all they wish as an active shooter … The only person he had shot was Joseph Rosenbaum, who had made threats to kill.” Prosecution set back: state’s witnesses bolstering self-defense claim
