Default N3 voice acting

What are your thoughts on the English voices in Ninety-Nine Nights?

I've read some scathing criticism, but I don't think it's that terrible. Not good either, but I still haven't heard most of the characters. Hopefully they don't get worse. I actually think, ironically, the best voice in the demo is the girl in the opening cinematic. She actually sounds quite good, and she's not even a main character. Anyone else notice that?

I also think part of the problem is the script. "So how did this orb, which was once whole, split in the first place?" Come on, Sean Connery couldn't make that line work. For some reason whenever I hear that I think of the "master of unlocking" line from RE.

The voice acting was dubbed in English, what more do I have to say? It's grotesque, it makes you want to kill an 80's pop band with a fork. I don't know why but it does.

Just know that I was yelling douche bag at my TV more than I would have liked to.

The best part in the demo was when the landslide happned, I forget exactly what is said though, but still the voice acting at that part was hilarious. :laugh:

It was something along the lines of "la--nd slide"

I hear it will have Japanese with English subtitles option. I hope the same can be said for Enchanted Arms & Bomberman Act Zero!

It's been confirmed by Ubitsoft for Enchanted Arms here:

Included are both the original Japanese language track and an all-new English language track featuring rising star Johnny Hawkes as Atsuma.
Does Bomberman Act Zero have dialog?? The first trailer had some awesome Engrish narration. I can only imagine the poor guy (sounded very American) who had to read that aloud.

the voice work really is that bad, but in a way its so bad its funny.

still, its nothing to be proud of, unless your aiming for that like resident evil 1, or house of the dead.
