No Love For VIdeo Game Voice Acting...

Just finished Marvel: Ultimate Alliance on easy. Fun game. Im watching through the credits to see my clients name (Captain America = Trev Broudy!), and ... it took a while.

A LONG WHILE...

I was waiting for that long while, seeing all the names of the people that worked on the game (script, animators, mo-cap), then the Marvel folk, then the special thanks (wtf?), then These are the names of the babies that were born during production (WTF?!?!), then after a pause FINALLY the voice over people.
Last.
DEAD f----n last.
These people arent paid much, to yell and scream into microphones for hours, and they dont even get the courtesy of being credited above the BABY LIST!

As a gamer Im pissed. Decent writing, art, and direction are trickling in, but as long as these performances are being treated like the fast food of performance (and paid as such), gaming as a whole will never rise above and become an artistic medium.

As a gamer Im pissed. Decent writing, art, and centering are trickling in, but as long as these performances are being hardened like the fast food of performance (and paid as such), gaming as a whole will never rise above and become an artistic medium.
