Nolan North is in his mid to late 30's, I think. And Drake is in his mid 30's. Not that much of a stretch.

He *looks* so much older than the character though. Mainly he probably doesn't look enough like him to actually play the character in the movie, unfortunately.

he easily is one of the best voice actors of all time, if you have a PS3 look at the Uncharted 2 Dev vids....he talks about how he does voice work for actors in TV versions of movies when they have to cover up all the "bitches", "shits", & "mother fuckers" with clean words...

Melon Farmer was in With A Vengeance, in the TV edit for Die Harder it was Mr Falcon.

"A lot of times we're just in a booth behind a microphone, unshaven..."

Claudia Black unshaven? The mind boggles.

He's alone in a studio with Claudia Black.

Who cares if she's unshaven?

As long as this guy sticks around we'll still be enjoying quality voice acting in video games.

*raises glass to Nolan*

I know people sometimes say he's in too many games, but movie actors often do 2 to 4 movies a year, and that's not considered strange or unusual. I think he's really talented, and am happy to have him in AC, Uncharted, Shadow Complex, or whatever.

Is it just me, or does he look kind of like Morrissey in that picture?

Nolan North is an awesome and charming actor. I love both Uncharted: Drake's Fortune and Uncharted 2 because of him. Sure, they'd still be amazing games without his voice, but he brings the thing full circle, ya know? That character is hilarious and cool at the same time. A truly memorable gaming character.

I also enjoyed his roles in Shadow Complex and PoP. I can't wait to hear him in Dark Void, too.

Keep it up, Nolan, you're great at your job!

He was fine in Shadow Complex, but those guys at Chair need to learn how to write non-shitty dialogue.

Shadow Complex really had awful dialog. Could you ever say "I'm no one... and everyone" with a straight face?

Check him out in Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time. Also download and watch the 12th Uncharted 2 promo movie on PSN. He talks about doing ADR for other actors (like Christopher Walken) in that clip.

His Christopher Walken impression is pure gold.

WREturns: No kidding. But what do you expect from people who worship Orson Scott Card? That guy is terrible and the hacks writing for Chair almost manage to make him look good.

"Now kiss me and hurry back."

I almost chucked my 360 controller though the tv at that line. A retarded chimpanzee could write better dialog than that while simultaneously bashing its head in with a hammer!

Nolan North deserves better, but what's the guy going to do? He signed a contract requiring him to voice at least one character in every video game ever made. Dude's trapped, we've got to get him out of it before it's too late!
