Interesting. IMO, his voice changes dramatically from Gates of Kryta to Bloodstone. In Bloodstone, he sounds a lot like Rexxar from Warcraft III...though Rexxar isn't on that list.

Toonami (Cartoon Network Block) as the host, TOM
Tom is Sexy!

Nothing more intersting than listening to him speak in one of the cut scenes, and my b/f randomly adding lines from the outtakes of Rurouni Kenshin where the guy voice-acts as Makoto Shishio... makes the cut scenes sooo much more entertaining.

Is it bad form to link your own thread?
Anyway, I brought this very thing up about a year ago.

I also read the other day that he is doing the voice of Vincent on the upcoming english release of Final Fantasy: Advent Children.

Drop my pants!? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?

You do know you're evil, right? Thanks for changing to your own account.. and.. I WAS trying to have a sip of tea when I read that post..
TheMosesPHD
:O Did I miss something? All the sudden people are talking about dropping pants and evil!

Yes, you missed my first post here where I pointed out that watching cut scenes with Makoto Shishio's outtake lines added was entertaining. Sekkira, who of course, knows this and is responsible for it happening in the first place, just happened to quote a line from it, almost making me spill tea over my keyboard.

Wow, this guy is in just about every one of my favorite anime.
Murder In China
Whoa, I never noticed he did all of those roles.
The Renegade Healer
this is amazing, i love his rolls in any of the shows/games i reconize, but his acting in Guild Wars was absolutly horrendous, mostly because of that dramatic (and fake) change of tone at bloodstone fen.
But then again, there is no good voice acting in Guild Wars. I suppose even a good voice actor will fall in the midst of a terrible VO
(nothing against the game, some of my favorite games have absolutly sickening VOs)

"OMG, Steven Blum, not you AGAIN!!!"
seriously i loved some of teh animes he voiced, but i think he was only really good as Spike Spiegel.
He NEVER changes his voice. Its always him. Maybe a little hoarser or what not.
He also voiced one of the dwarves in the conversation between Brechnar and two other dwarves.
"I could have heard i heard shouts of men" or something. Thats Steven Blum too.
Le Sigh...If its not Steven Blum, Its Scott Mcneil. If its not Scott Mcneil, its Richard Cox, if its not Richard Cox, Its Cam Clarke.
~_~ There needs to be more variety in voice actors, seriously.

You know your cool when you do the voices of cartoons and games.

I give Lyra a box of chocolate chip cookies! Thanx for pointing out that one of my fav Bebop characters was voiced by Steven Blum. Yes I am a huge Cowboy Bebop fan. Even have the movie.
JiggyFly
I always love how when you look up an actor or actress, it's almost crazy how many roles they've actually had. Like Steve was a voice actor for a ridiculous amount of animes and video games.
...but yeah Wikipedia owns.

Murder In China
I wonder how rich he is now...
NoChance
it doesn't help the voice acting that nobody's mouth moves during the cut scenes -- makes the scenes look really weird to me.
too bad it's probably too expensive for Anet to add mouth movements.

Ulivious The Reaper
It was kinda obvious that it was him, if you were a good fan of any of the shows it was OBVIOUS lol
Killmur
Yea now that I read this thread I can tell in my mind that it is the same guy that voiced Spike.

We should make it a guru project to make a FULL cast listing on guild wars.
The voices sound familiar but i need more cross references from other anime/cartoon fans.
edit:
http://imdb.com/title/tt0458384/fullcredits
entry for guild wars.
A little while back, this only had the voice of Rurik credited. I actually wiki-ed steven blum in there, i dunno if that change was because of me >.>;

I wonder how that happens. Does soem casting director call you up and ask if you want to be the sound actor for zombies in a computer game?
Man, the more I find out about Steve the more fun I think it would be to be a voice actor. Steve Blum is like the L.T. of voice actors.

Makes me wanna go back and compare his voice...

I found an outtake for Guild Wars too

I always laugh at how the voice of that guy doesn't match up with the toon. Sounds like a frail old white guy and you'd expect a deep booming voice like James Earl Jones or Chef from South Park.

I think Keith David has a cool voice they could incorporate as the male warrior voice, or a bad guy for future GW chapters... and maybe Paul Dobson as the male necromancer? It sure would be cool if each profession had a different voice instead of just having a male and female voice for players in the cutscenes.
Can you guys think of any voice actors and what kind of character (necro, warrior, mesmer, ele, ranger, villains, kings, demons, etc) you would like to see them cast as? This is kind of fun.
Diablo???
Ah ha! Now I know who was responsible for voicing those unamiable one-liners for Prince Rurike!
Josh
HAH! As if he voiced Black WarGreyMon from Digimon! Lol :$
! He also voiced Vincent in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children!!! Soooo seeing that in a month or 2 when it's out in English.

I think Cam Clarke would be a great voice for a Male mesmer (He's the voice to Liquid Snake from the Metal Gear Series)

I always thought, hey that's spike from Cowboy bebop

It's surprising just how small the world is when it comes to voice actors.
Start with Ghost in the Shell then move to Chobits. Hideki in Chobits is done by Togusa in Ghost in the Shell. Then move to Last Exile. Al in Last Exile is done by Kotoko in Chobits.
Oi!
..and yeah..
"Spike" is all over the place, I'd love to meet him one day and say "dude, it's like we live together!"

It even seems kinda small if you always watch the original Japanese, though the situation is a bit better because at least a lot of the Japanese actors don't suck, and are, in fact, quite awesome. I like Steve Blum though.
Speaking of which, he doesn't just play that Hablion guy does he? I'm pretty sure my elementalist is voiced by Steve Blum.

Like i mentioned earlier, he also voices a dwarf in Grooble's Gulch.

The narrator of pre-searing also does voices of many female characters on South Park.
