[@jaquelineferst]

(Yes, I'm replying to a 3yo comment) I'm so glad he voiced Zaeed. I can safely say Robin was immortalized as a big goddamn hero.

Zaeed has one of the best voice actings in the entire trilogy! Always loved this character for the voice acting.

I didn't know he died till right this second. That's heartbreaking. I love his voice in this.

I've played many different franchises over the years, FO, Skyrim, Civ, Assassins Creed...the ME franchise has the best voice acting and dialogue so far. I'm new to ME and just started ME2.

[@archangel9191]

Creepy, every time you hear Keith as Harbinger, you feel like a dozen icicles are going up or down your spine, the ultimate Boogeyman, he really is the most greatest and scariest of all monsters and villains ever, his most iconic line isn't "Assuming Direct Control", for me, it's more likely to be "If I must tear you apart, Shepard, I will." Yikes and we thought Corypheus in D.A. Inquistion was scary and/or the worst of all of them combined.
