Thorondor Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 It appears that, for the German localisation of UFO: Aftershock, publisher Morphicon Ltd. spared no efforts and sought to employ some high-profile voice doubles. The work done in Munich has resulted in over 700 audio files, hopefully to the delight of German-speaking strategy fans. In the German version, Walter von Hauff (known for voicing Michael of moorlands) will voice the Cyborg leader, Dagmar Heller (known for voicing Barbara Streisand) the Psionic elder, Hartmut Neugebauer (John Goodman) will speak for one of the human leaders, Franc Roeth (known for his work as the german voice of David Arquette in Scream) as a narrator and Kathrin Simon (voice of Madonna and Charlize Theron) also participates. A team composed of 18 voice actors in all was responsible for producing the required dialogues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Is that John Goodman the John Goodman? Impressive stuff about the other voice actors either way. I know the Germans are serious about their games, but this takes it several steps further Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike9o Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Voice acting was a leading complaint regarding UFO:Aftermath. Sounds like Cenega really listened to the reviews and are beating that problem to a pulp! This is an excellent sign! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
