LOL! You should have researched that Andrew... Mr. North has been in tons of AAA games and animated movies. He has an awesome voice acting career already. :P

I just IMDB'd him. Crazy!
Talk about doing lots of game voice overs! Add to that random appearences in tv shows (NCIS, Ugly Betty, Dirty Sexy Money, CSI: Miami, Big Love) plus film (Deja Vu and some straight to video stuff). Crazy I never knew he was in so much stuff.

This guy is a great Nathan Drake voice actor but I much prefer the Sand of Time Prince of Persia actor for the Prince.

is he the next David Hayter??? and if you don't know who David Hayter is i feel sorry for you

David Hayter doesn't really do a lot of voice work, atleast not anymore. He's a screenwriter who also does the voice of Solid Snake. Nolan North on the other hand is in tons of games.
Fun fact: Nolan North is actually in MGS4 as "Enemy Soldiers" and "MGO Soldiers".

Have you looked him up on imdb? He has a pretty good voice acting career behind him already.

I was uber-psyched for this game until recently. Seeing as it's one-on-one based combat, and HEAVY on just acrobatics of moving around, I foresee the novelty wearing thin after you see some of the sites, "ohh" and "ahhh", and then get bored with the same similar combat over and over.
Canceled my pre-purchase and calling this one a rental.

Good to hear that this guy is becoming quite popular. I think I have a man-crush on his voice (or maybe it's just Nathan Drake... not sure which)

"Did you notice the Prince in Ubisoft's new Prince of Persia game sounds exactly like Nathan Drake from Uncharted?"
No I haven't noticed because, like always, the game is not available on release date up here in Canada !
Do we know if North is returning for Uncharted 2?

It's pretty obvious. Just watch the teaser trailer that was posted yesterday.

Good voice acting as far as I've seen. Good choice Ubi ;)

I always thought that Nathan Drake was more Malcolm Reynolds than Indiana Jones.
Not that that's a bad thing. Actually, it's a very, very good thing.

Word, many people have always said that Nathan Fillion has got to play Drake in the movie. It'll probably never happen, and that's a real tragedy. I think his appearance was partially based on Fillion as well, they said they drew from several actors for his look, I think.

He did more than just offer his voice to Uncharted, he also did quite a bit of motion capture. Though he may do considerably less of it for Prince of Persia for obvious reasons.
