We need a sound pak from this guy, I'd buy it :]

[AN BIFFED ELF!!!!]

Not low and belchy enough.

so that's the real voices without all the post-effects? cause it's really sound like it even it's it got a much higher pitch.

[Mr Keefy]

I bet Zenimax try to claim his voice as IP.

Well that was pretty unimpressive, not that the Q3 announcer was impressive to begin with.

same voice with a lower pitch for comparision.

[AN BIFFED ELF!!!!]

he sounds depressed now :(

I like the lower pitch, if it was a touch higher it would be perfect I think

The new guy just sounds too suave for a quake announcer. Almost like he's at dinner party with a martini casting a quake game, lol

Dude, I swear the new guy sounds like Duke Nukem to me. Does no one else hear it?

Oh and he has a number of videos where he does voices on youtube. Apparently he's famous for doing the voice work for some Dragon Ball Z characters. Even if he's not everyone's cup of tea in QL, he seems to be a pretty talented voice actor.

I like the idea of optional announcer packs though. Doubt it will ever happen.

Apart from the original guy, Who would you have as your custom announcer.

My vote goes to the announcer from UT2k4, though his work in Unreal Championship 2 was his best work.

I'd love to see this guy return. The guy who announces Mortal Kombat would be pretty neat as well.would

In Q3 I use to have this awesome sound pak that replaced the "Excellent" with a Samuel L Jackson quote from Pulp Fiction. Every time you'd get an Excellent you'd hear SLJ saying "Shhe-eee-iiit N-e-g-r-o". I swear I laugh just typing it out again....too funny.

[Mr Keefy]

That would be fun.
I remember once I replaced the hitsound in a different game for Homer Simpson's DOH!
doh doh doh doh doh
