Voice wasn't as gravelly as normal. I think someone threw some decongestant in his morning coffee that day.

The beginning of this kinda reminds me of the closing credit music on Saturday Night Live. This is great. Love Tom .... he's so gravelly =o)

His batvoice really annoys me now.


I might have agreed with you before, but "THIS ISN'T A CAR" wouldn't have been nearly as awesome in Bale's normal voice. That one line alone completely justifies the gravelly voice.

And then it'll get used in games with characters called Jake Manly with Gravelly Voice 2.0.

*quality headbangingness.

Upvote for gravelly screamed-out voice.

CliffyB is full of douchery and follows the money, not the gamers. This is why the develop mainly for the consoles.

We all know true hardcore gamers play on PCs.

While this parodies the tedium of CoD rather well I still can't help but recall that Epic give us Gears of War which features OTT machismo and gravelly voiced marines who look like steroid-abusing body builders.
Bulletstorm is a bit ridiculous but having played the demo I'm not seeing much long-term interest for me. Brink on the other hand intrigues me a bit more.

Lucky guy. PC gamers won't be getting a demo. Reportedly because Cliffy B thinks we suck and are, like, super lame.

I don't think you should lose much sleep to be honest It does feel like a console title through and through.

It does remind me of Gears though but it's an FPS and you've got that leash. So no getting stuck to the scenery when you least want it, so that's an improvement. On the other hand it's so OTT I wonder if the ATD crowd who this is aimed at will be able to cope.

What's sad is the ridiculous, gravelly, barking voice sounds pretty much like it does in the real movie.

When did Star Wars have gravelly-voiced emos?

I watched my brother play this game and my biggest gripe was his voice. He's a bike courier. Why does every modern male game lead have to have the stupid gravelly Wolverine/duke/halo voice?


Sounds more "Wannabe Solid Snake" to me. It's a good game, I actually started off hating it. I couldn't stand his voice, the fact that you could climb EVERY building actually got to me, because most of the time you're climbing something that you know wouldn't be there in real life (Generally places don't have exterior pipes), and you can basically make it up anywhere no matter what by spamming X and hoping for the best.

It's a good enough system, but I dislike it, I prefer Assassins creed more. My other gripe is that I got insanely lucky with the first "Mission" of saving the food and it immidiately set me to Hard difficulty and the game then proceeded to kick my ass.

The Reapers have what look to be AK-47's, but have a 99.9% accuracy rating, essentially meaning if you poke your head out to zap someone and there's more then 3 of them there, you're either dead or graying out.

However, with more power unlocks and a tad more understanding of the game it does get more fun, it's just a shame that it took me 3+ hours to reach that point.

Let's see what your voice sounds like after being forced to drain thousands of human souls, and then getting electrocuted.

I bet you'd drop an octave or two.
