Despite being in Broadway shows and making appearances on TV programs like 30 Rock, Steitzer admits he'll probably be best remembered for his participation in Halo. After he delivers his "Cheneymania" line, you'll understand why.

"As seen in the video past the break, he may not appear quite as you imagined"
Yeah I thought Raziel from The Legacy of Kain series was a young 30 something male. Comes to find out the guy is in his 70's.

I always like to see voice actors in action. I've seen the voice of Halo multiplayer & now all I need to see is John Marston's voice actor in action & my life will be complete

The people in the background really need to shut up already.

He actually commented on my blog once. It was pretty weird - I mentioned him in an entry (about No One Lives Forever and his appearance in a Seattle production of A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum) and he just sort of popped in. Must have googled himself.
I still remember him most as the voice of the robots in NOLF 2. "Math...is....fun!"

Way to do an interview with people yelling in the background. WTF is wrong with people?

This guy has such a killtacular voice. I always wondered who he was just like the mortal kombat 2 announcer.

I'll be the first to say it... I did not expect him to look like that.

Lol at his facial expression when he said "unfrickinbelievable."

I bet his romantic evenings are quite interesting: "Ball taken, ball dropped, ball taken, ball dropped".

Haha, funny guy.
...Kinda reminds me of a turtle.
But I mean that in the nicest way possible.

I will never forget the first time I heard "SLAYER!" and "KILLING SPREE!" from this guy. Great voice.

I'm kind of glad they cut "You suck!" As epic as that sounds, I have a feeling I'd hear more of that than anything else. :/

I think Bob Ball could take him in a fight.

It's like seeing the guy who voices the Heavy and Demo from TF2. You would never expect him to look like he does.

I sure hope 343i keeps him on board with future Halo titles...

The guy who voices Marcus (in Gears of War) also voices Bender in Futurama.

Epic. At first I didn't want to know, but that was freaking cool.

This guy is so hardcore no matter how old he is.

Wow, I was just wondering about that and I see this.

I'd rather meet the guy behind the Unreal Tournament voice. Way more iconic in my eyes.

I know I'm going to get flamed for this, but.......
The Halo Announcer has nothing on the Unreal Torunament Announcer.
M-M-M-MONSTER KILL!

@RoboZombie585 Edit. Apologies to jdlyga for mentioning the UT announcer fist. I did not realize that you already said that, so... Yeah.

I like this guy but I still prefer the announcer from Unreal/Mortal Kombat, also the sexy announcer from Unreal.
Posted: Mar 30th 2011 9:13PM Spiffypants said
Surprisingly, he's not that different from what I expected, as far as looks...mannerism is quite a bit different though.
"Cheney-mania" is friggin' EPIC though, and should be put back in. I demand an update, Bungie!

I played the beta quite a bit, but I don't remember "Cheney-mania" anywhere. I'm pretty sure I got a betrayal at some point...don't worry, they deserved it.

Do not look in his eyes when he says the phrases from Halo.
You will never be the same if you do.
