Fallout: New Vegas brings back Ron Perlman

by David Hinkle on Aug 13th 2010 7:20PM

War. War never changes ... and neither will the narrator for the intro to the next Fallout game, either! Ron Perlman has been tapped to do the voice work on Fallout: New Vegas' introductory cinematic, once again regaling us with the tale of post-apocalyptic America and introducing us to the game's main character: you.

For the sake of potential spoilerz, we're going to go ahead an embed the audio past the break. Oh, and sorry non-Americans -- you likely won't be able to access the player.

The new season of Sons of Anarchy can't come quick enough!

Oh, and yeah.. Fallout New Vegas seems pretty cool. Glad Perlman is back. :)

@Ezio Auditore da Firenze
Pretty cool? I think you mean extraordinary.

@Special Agent Steve

Extraordinary? I think you mean no surprise.

@Kid Icarus

sigh...been a long week..

@Ezio Auditore da Firenze
no it is awesome in the original context as when the word awesome was invented to describe like the power of most gods but yeah I've played them all except that one on the ps2 and i thought the dude that did three dog in 3 did the intro because he sounds a lil diff in 3 and a lil like three dog

and why is your name ezio if you have an altair picture wtf is up with that?

Player works fine outside the US.

What's up with that volume? It's barely audible.

@Faceless Troll

Volume.

The Volume never changes.

War, War never changes.

@OptimisticTank i know a guy that would disagree with you

Hooray for Justice!

Well.. atleast it's not Nolan North.

@motopsycho What does that mean? If I didn't have Ron Perlman in my Fallout game then I would be a sad, sad panda. And by sad, sad panda I mean psychopathic killer .
EITHER WAY IT'S UPSETTING!

@Special Agent Steve No yes, it came out worng haha.
I wanted to say "Thank god it's not Nolan North"
But some how I got messed up there. Wheres the edit button ? :U

@motopsycho

Nolan North will soon be the voice of every character in any video game ever!

When that day comes, he'll remember your comment...

@wardob
Well... Mute + subtitles FTW?
And I hope that day never comes D:

This dude has an Epic voice. Every time i watch 1000 ways to die, i get the chills. On the level of Morgan Freeman. Glad he's back.

@The MARIO

"Andy crawled to freedom through five hundred yards of shit smelling foulness I can't even imagine, or maybe I just don't want to. Five hundred yards... that's the length of five football fields, just shy of half a mile."

@Ezio Auditore da Firenze

Shawshank Redemption?

@KiraXD Of course!

Ya know how they say if you make a funny face too much it will stick? Ron Pearlman musta spent a lot of time with a magnifying glass over his mouth... ITS EFFIN HUUUUUUUUGE

@(Unverified)

Thats what makes him Ron Pearlman though! so recognizable in features AND in voice!

@(Unverified)

Your avatar's one to talk

A Republic dedicated to democracy? That is like coke being dedicated to Dr.Pepper!

@RandomAcronym Mr. Pibb > Dr. Pepper

For Fallout 4 or the Fallout MMO, they should just give Ron Perlman an actual character to add a face to the narration. He could still narrate the intro and endings, but let the character meet and talk to him like he exists as an in-game character.

Not according to Old Snake! - "War has changed." (Opening of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots)

I'd hit it.

ok.... i could not understand what he was saying, it was like a whisper and my volume is maxed. i think the only time it git loud enough to make anything out i heard him says bombs fall or bombs fell. guess i'll have to barrow some better speakers to hear what hes saying.
