But he's NOT a voice actor, he's a comedian! Steve Merchant's NORMAL voice is great, but he clearly can't do the range of vocals required. Hire a professional please, Valve.
Portal was fun but I think I'll be waiting for Portal 2 to appear in the bargain section a few months later! HL2EP3 on the other hand ... mmm

If there is one thing i've learnt from valve, its that you should wait before buying their games. My prediction is there will be a steam sale for 33% off within 3 months, 50% off within 6months, and some crazy 75% off sale by the time Portal 2 is 1. Its just hard to resist
He is also an actor and has worked in sound production and radio for years, I reckon he knows what he is doing. Also, I think Valve clearly wanted him from the start as they got a random British guy from their office to stand in for him (the guy with the annoying voice). I think the main thing is, Portal is basically a black comedy, so I think a comedian is needed. His delivery is perfect in the updated video in my opinion. *XFM Radio Show Fanboy Alert...*
his voice accompanying you through the game will just make it that much more enjoyable to play. really cant wait
hum... £30 from Game.co.uk. i'll see if there's better offers...... but why does the webpage doesn't lead to Steam?
Seems a little overpiced at current though may wait and see what the reviews give it. Could be a game to wait for a steam sale for.
