Video: Behind the scenes with the Optimus Prime voice actor
We’ve seen a lot of videos so far featuring the upcoming Microsoft Xbox 360 and Sony PlayStation 3 versions of the title Transformers: The Game and each one adds more to our excitement about the game and the movie. This one features the Optimus Prime voice talent and how he came about with playing the role. Check it out:
The first thing we noticed about the guy is that his normal speaking voice sounds a lot more like what you’d expect to hear from a friend’s dad or something. It’s just so “middle-aged guy next door.” In any case, once the dubbing process starts, he (or at least his vocal chords) transfigures into the mighty Autobot leader and everything else becomes so sweet. Imagine having this guy for your dad and telling the school bus to “transform and roll out” every morning when it picks you up. Even the school bullies will want to be friends with you.
As you probably know, Transformers: The Game is a direct spin-off of the movie which comes out in several weeks’ time, albeit with some storyline differences from the flick. Players will be able to choose whether they want to side with the Autobots or the Decepticons to tilt the war that transcends generations and star systems. We’ll fill you in on more news as they come.
