[@saadabdullah3225]

I grew up listening to Ishiwatari voicing Sol, and his voice clips from XX: TMC are my favourite.

[@harryvpn1462]

My favorite version is the one where he says "gunflame"

[@AlphaProto]

When it comes to American interpretations of Sol's voice, Troy Baker seems like the safe pick, but I like the haggard sound of Davids voice. It just sounds really metal. Like Limmy or some other metal singer who has a lot of road miles and a large bar tab. I think Troy was the better performer, but when it comes to voice, I like David's more.

[@MimebladeGMail]

David actually matches one of Sol's earlier voices from the Drama CDs, so I agree wholeheartedly with this.

[@pottedplant37_]

Look, I don't know why I keep coming back here, but the funny gunflame sound brings good feelings to my brain.

[@gonzalotorres5282]

0:26 HUH? South America? I wish I could see this (and buy it) at my local game stores... Also, Jouji Nakata debuted in the FGs in ACPLUS, not +R. (Also, personal setting: George as Sol, Ishiwatari as O.Sol. Fight the creator himself!) Ishiwatari: A couple of beers are we're on. George: A pro. Expert on playing Badguys (Kotomine, Alucard, Wesker, etc.) since Jetman. Baker: Not bad. NBA-ish. Forseth: Logan-esque, but also not bad. Lee: Most unknown, but sounds tough. Hanada: I'm not a fan of CD-Dramas.

[@MimebladeGMail]

George might have started in ACPlus, but he's been voicing characters in fighting games since Melty Blood. Nrqsr "Nero" Chaos. Also, Koichi Yamadera was supposed to voice Sol early on, but they couldn't afford him, so he ended up voicing Beerus in Dragonball FighterZ years later.

[@gonzalotorres5282]

@@MimebladeGMail Although, none of that games are entirely on ASW hands (MB is French Bread, ASW would help in publishing it years later since Nrqsr debut. DBFZ is from Bamco, they have more involvement than ASW itself). You're including those like they were ASW games, when they're actually not. (Fuck you, autocombos.) Speaking of Namco, you forget one game where Nakata did another bad guy. And Ishiwatari did Sol so many times, fans would prefer him over Yamadera. Like Toshimitsu Arai repraising Rugal in KOF2k2UM over Norio Wakamoto.

[@MimebladeGMail]

@@gonzalotorres5282 ASW developed DBFZ though, so it wasn't a hands-off deal. I don't know about what other famous game voices Nakata has done, I'd have to look them up, but what people prefer is up to them. I don't mind what roles are given to GG characters, or anyone else... I just flow with who is chosen for the role, especially if they do a good job of acting the part.

@@MimebladeGMail But until now were acredited. Remember when FUNimation took the place of ASW logo on Supersonic Warriors on GBA and SW2 on NDS? Me neither. Mediocre seiyuus tend to ruin characters. Look at JP!Ruby, Mai and Orie in BBTag: they always sound the same.

jesus, i know a lot of people are sick of seeing Troy Baker everywhere, but i really wouldn’t mind him being the permanent english voice for Sol at all... besides the need for some extra gruff, the way he delivered the lines used for gunflame in Overture was pretty damn close to how I imagine English Sol to sound like....
