Indeed
Poking around the internet trying to entertain myself at 0500 hours at work the other day, I found myself on IMDB. Eventually after a round-about click, click, click - I was on Christopher Judges' page, of Stargate SG-1 Teal'c fame . . . AND he is the new voice of Kratos for the upcoming God of War game!
I loved this series so much. I remember my roommate bought one of them for me because it came out right before spring break, she was going to be gone, and thus I had all week to slum it up in the living room, drinking Mt. Dew, eating funyuns, and murdering my way through the Greek Pantheon. I love Chris' voice and I think he's going to be great.
I know that there's a lot of shady stuff going on with voice actors and their business. Voice actors make games for me these days, and I really enjoy learning about how they do what they do. They should be taken care of and treated just as importantly as any other creator. Troy Baker is one of my absolute favorites. His work as Booker in Bioshock Infinite sealed my love. Apparently, they made this particular recast because they changed the way the motion captured and needed the actual actor to do it all at once. Chris is more Kratos sized than the previous actor and more used to using his body. I liked this article here.
