when it comes to voice acting in video
games say hello to the King know it hey
what’s up buddy we’re making a game
about me got a have you do the vo
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
Nolan North performances this guy can’t
even climb I mean look at him doesn’t
that the freakish upper body strength
he’s just a voice I’ll talk I’ll mouth
we chosen the characters in video games
voiced and performed by actor Nolan
North that not only left the biggest
impact on us but also highlighted just
how talented the guy really is we’re
stepping into some pretty heavy spoiler
territory here so a spoiler alert is now
in effect cancer had a good run but it’s
time to put it down number 10 the black
hand of Sauron Middle Earth shadow of
Mordor come back to me
they say playing the villain is way more
fun than acting as the hero in which
case no one must have loved playing the
leader of the black captains the Dark
Lord gave you a second chance to stand
by his side now I give you no choice
shall be sealed together in death
the Nemesis – Troy Baker’s tallien the
black hand is a soft-spoken slimy
servant of the Dark Lord who personally
murdered Talia’s family pretty much the
embodiment of everything evil he may not
be the most complex of antagonists but
thanks to Nolan’s performance he manages
to maintain an air of authority and
spookiness that sticks with you even as
you’re cleaving your way through works
not to mention he did also briefly turn
into Sauron so that’s some pretty major
bragging rights there
number nine doctor engine crash
bandicoot series that’s right tough guy
unless you want the bike on the
stationary your respect master Manny
actors had their shot at voicing this
insane yet hilarious henchmen throughout
crash bandicoot’s misadventures but when
no the north got his claws into it he
amped up the comedy factor all the way
to 11 what’s wrong with your man
I need plutonium to succeed beautiful
shiny plutonium making his debut and
Crash Team Racing the sheer amount of
lunacy that comes out of his mouth as
he’s trying to destroy his enemies on
the track is so funny that it hurts your
mother’s speed limit now he may Dunn
induce the initial fear of his initial
incarnation but the comedic timing of
Nolan’s performance is so spot-on that
it made gamers look forward to their
next encounter with the psychotic
scientist trash you fool
you’re too late it’s time to drop the
doomhammer on you don’t hammer doom upon
you and let’s just dance baby number
eight the corrupted cores portal to 89%
of magic tricks are not mentioned
technically they are social the final
battle against Wheatley could be seen as
a rehash of the first fight against
GLaDOS from the first game if it weren’t
for the fact that it’s just as thrilling
and requires you to forcibly install
corrupted cores into the dangerously
stupid AI dad ran in space-time
gang-du you space yes we are family
again
like the previous game each core has its
own dysfunctional personality and each
one is brought to life by Nolan North in
hilarious fashion
what do you fight back back you got that
under control we are the good one speaks
random unreliable facts another talks
like a typical action hero complete with
a flirt setting but the one everyone
remembers most fondly is the core that’s
completely obsessed with space and we
mean obsessed okay
let’s face 80 good space space space
going going in okay therapy space number
seven the prince prince of persia hi a
reimagining of the original
action-adventure title was always going
to be a challenge
luckily it came with a dash of Nolan
North to breathe new life into the
titular swordsman I hope that hurt he
can’t hear you okay and you’re an ugly
mother to my as the name was adventurer
well aside from the name Prince no one
portrays him as a cocky brash and
sarcastic wanderer who gets flung into a
battle against the ultimate evil when he
saves a princess by the name of ellika
hey there’s no need to get nasty
we can talk about this
okay so your Adamic conversations aside
from the signature wit we would later
come to see him use as another famous
treasure hunter there’s also a
selfishness that defines him that isn’t
seen in many heroes shown when he
sacrifices the world in order to save
the woman he cares for the corruption is
inside you I cannot heal it only hold it
back great so after all this I just get
to join our of it’s happy Club only
Armand can create a corrupted aah that’s
how I just get to die
number 6 Desmond Miles Assassin’s Creed
series you there Rebecca bad reception
did you hear me
I’m glad to see that’s working sure he
may not have exactly had the suaveness
and skill of his ancestors like Ezio
Alta year or Edward Kenway but Desmond
still held his own as a modern-day
member of the assassins Order you have
to give him credit considering he went
from making cocktails to dispensing
Templars for the hidden blade you have
information we need mr. miles
information I’m a bartender for Christ’s
sakes nolan north portrays a character
as the every man suddenly burdened with
terrible responsibilities who slowly
grows to accept the fact that blood must
be spilled to protect future lives
whatever Juno’s planning however
terrible it might seem today we’ll find
a way to stop it but the alternative
what you want there’s no hope there he
may be a bit of a short fuse and
understandably kind of sulky from time
to time but in the end he was willing to
die a hero’s death you know it’s true
it’s already started I need to do this
now so go go number 5 Martin Walker spec
ops the line we have our orders locate
survivors city immediately radio command
from outside the storm wall send in the
cavalry
conflicted morals questionable sanity
this is a man that has gone through the
heart of darkness indeed you are not a
prison of war far as I’m concerned
you’re not even a fuckin soldier you can
I can do whatever the fuck I want now
the asshole on the radio
where’s he broadcasting the leader of a
small man team sent to Dubai to stop a
rogue unit Martin Walker is subjected to
unimaginable sights accidentally killing
civilians with white phosphorus
suffering mass hallucination all of this
leads to Walker coming to terms with the
pain he is inflicted and what kind of a
man he will choose to be in the
aftermath of such horror all this it was
your fault that’s what you believe then
shoot me too
I didn’t beat
no one ever does the north beautifully
portrays his downward spiral into
madness and all the aggression and fear
that comes with it whether he leaves
Dubai as a broken man
or remains and embraces the monster he’s
become no one’s performance will haunt
you to the core what’s going on
gentlemen
welcome to Dubai number four Deadpool
Deadpool now be honest I’m not the only
one with a little bit of shit in their
pants right now am I
long before Ryan Reynolds stepped into
the tight red spandex but uh after he
got his mouth sewn shut
Nolan North provided the voice for the
Merc with a mouth and boy did he deliver
pucks if you don’t arrive within one oh
you’ll miss the incredibly large
breasted naked woman who claims to be
your biggest fan don’t fall for that one
again what if cable means if it’s time
he had made memorable cameos in Prior
Marvel video game performances before
but here he really got to let loose in
his own misadventure ah ah kind of love
the ones that make you sweat multiple
voices fourth wall breaks galore slicing
apart bad guys left and right and even
getting frisky with a certain southern
belle it’s easy to see that Nolan is
having a ball with this rule and gives
us one of the most entertaining
incarnations of Marvel’s favorite nutjob
no one addresses the player quite like
Deadpool does yeah that’s great Peter
talk to my dick hey where are you a hos
going with my contract number three
David the Last of Us names David this
here’s my friend James in this
post-apocalyptic future no one is left
innocent those that struggle to retain
their better nature still have to kill
to survive which makes the villains in
this world all the more terrifying he
said that the others should pin matter
slaughtered I am crazy man I get that
he’s crazy man traveling a little girl
as David Nolan North presents the player
with a man who’s used the end of the
world as an excuse to embrace his darker
urges deceitful cannibalistic and
genuinely creepy in his approach to Elie
he comes across way scarier than any
clicker or bloater just because of how
real he is have heart you’re loyal and
you’re special
his appearance may have been brief but
the impact he made not only gave us one
of gaming’s best modern villains but
left us feeling unclean and shaken well
Bravo mr. North Sea in the mornin Ally
number two the penguin Batman Arkham
series now you best listen Falcone kosis
is the last time I’ll ah we may not know
exactly which part of London that accent
comes from but Rock Steady’s revamped
version of Gotham’s infamous climb Mort
was damn entertaining made all the
better with Nolan North’s unrecognizable
performance you need to keep an eye on
this one
he’s a bit too careless for my luck
despite his size and stature the penguin
is one intimidating bird that is unless
you get smacked around by the Caped
Crusader which always happens then he’s
funny as hell no I’m sorry please don’t
I be caring only about bringing down the
Batman and bring it in the money Nolan
North Oswald Cobblepot is a worthy
addition to the Dark Knight’s villains
gallery still not sure how he managed to
get a girl like candy though before we
reveal our number one hit here if you
want to go mentions so glad you could
come out sometime for us you know we
needed I sense some bad blood between us
what dumb fuck oh shit lucky bastard
yo assholes I had a good run knew the
risks made my choice
poverty is a problem apartheid is a
problem this is just a couple of years

anticipated so you agree you have a
problem nope you do you have a
communications director fix this number

you sure you want to be defiling your
ancestors remains like that you make it
sound so dirty we’ve seen him hunched
down the greatest treasures lost to the
world following the footsteps of Marco
Polo
engage in more life-or-death situations
than humanly possible and he’s done it
all with a cocky smile you’re gonna get
us into that dig site we’re gonna snatch
that treasure right out from under them
they’ll never see it coming
payback’s a bitch Nolan North’s free
spirited treasure hunter hasn’t only
just taken on impossible tasks and
accomplished miraculous goals but also
grown over the Uncharted series into a
character that isn’t only fun and blade
able but flawed and painfully human
telling that treasure is as good as ours
the strained relationships with his
friends and lovers his moral debate over
the true value of riches it’s through
nolan north Stram bunk chest hip rounded
performance that drake elevates himself
from stereotypical hero to layered human
being we’ll miss you Nathan but thanks
