voice actors don't get credit in our muti-media culture but they should.
i am trying to find out which actor did which npc and i need all the help i could get. the reason why i want to know is because they all did such a great job that i think, deserve recognition,if not by the world than at least by the fans who play these games.

i espeacially want to know who did the voices of mincs and edwin

i believe i've figured out who did anomen, dwight schultz who played murdoc in the a-team tv series. and the voice of irenicus is so familiar that it's driving me insane

also, don't you think that the voice of aerie sounds like kira from the dark crystal?

The voice of Irenicus is David Warner, he stared in a variety of movies. The one I remember him for the most is Time after Time where he plaed Jack the Ripper.

Irenicus is also the scientist in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2.

Holy S, now I remember where I've seen him before.. I'll have to rummage through old boxes of VHS cassettes to find that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2) movie..

As for the voice of Minsc, that's none other than Jim Cummings.

He's also the voice of Cat from Cat-Dog, Taz from Tazmania...oh, and Winnie the Pooh (currently...does an exact likeness of the original Voice Actor's portrayal).

Yeah the voice actors do a great job but I miss one person. In ToB wouldn't it be cool if they could get the guy who does watto in Star Wars 1 to be a shopkeeper of some sort!!! He is just the greatest.

Sarevok's voice is also awesome, I'm curious who did that one. I liked Aerie's voice too, I bet the girl that did hers is cute like Aerie

Anyone know who she is?

I think cheesemage (or was it someone else?) said that he heard Irenicus' voice in Spiderman.

David Warner did the voice acting for Irenicus. He was in Star Trek 5 as a Klingon ambassador -who gets assinated in space , and Star Trek TNG as a Klingon general i think..and in Titanic, and in The Omen, and in The Man with 2 Brains..and in Time bandits as THE DEVIL himself. He's been in loads of things - fantastic voice.

Look for him (Listen for him)in the planet of the apes film out this summer

Actually David Warner played the Klingon High Chancellor, Gorkon. Not the Ambassador.

Minsc is also the voice of the Arabian guard in Aladdin. The main honcho one. Just an interesting tidbit

When I first heard Irenicus' voice, I thought it was Jeremy Irons.

Check out [url="http://www.imdb.com"]www.imdb.com[/url]

It has listed the voice actors from Baldurs Gate as well as their roles in that game. But unfortunatly BG2 doesn't have the same info the names are their but not which roles they played. Although you can match some from BG.

Some have done extensive work in voice acting, kinda surprised me, don't know why.
