That really seals the deal on this.

I like the little voices in Pink Sweets when clipping bullets and grabbing things, as with Ibara it adds a lot of personality. Oh, and the Stage 4 boss for using "BOMBAA" like it's going out of fashion.

Late edit: Err, stage 3. Oh well.

What does the announcer say when you've lost your last life at Stage 1-8? I think it's "Close, but not close enough" but I've never pulled a Buffalo Bills and choked right at the very end of a 1CC run to find out.

Anyway, announcers from Gradius series rank highly for their verbal abuse (that trend started with Gradius II, right?). Buster Winters from Gradius V is still my favorite. The echoing sound of one last Vic Viper getting destroyed followed by what's usually a smart-ass remark never fails to make me smile.

Gaiden's were great, too.

Yeah, that's what the announcer says. I had the misfortune to hear that...

"This is Exceliza, I will depart now." "Roger, good luck."

is this what the fuck TF2 says at the beginning?

"Staaaart" from Gradisu garaxi

that Mac Text to Speech voice really fits in with the classic gradioos voice samples

For the X68000 version, yes. Genesis got the shorter "This is Exceliza." "Roger, good luck!"

I'm surprised anyone managed to comprehend that.

I'm honestly hearing O Tay! (just got this game a few days ago)

Favs are Ibara Black Label. And Ketsui (can't remember what she says but I like it).

Man I forgot about Gradius V.

"Emergency emergency, the station is under attack by the bacterions."

"This is Vic Viper T301, commencing attack on the enemy"

All the voices in that game are awesome.

Yet another vote for Donpachi. Everything in that game rocks.

"Don't you just LOVE the sweet taste of victory!?"

When you beat the first boss in ESPgaluda ( a flying chick ) she screams something and I always say it after she does ( which is a lot these days, I'm trying to beat it )

To me it sounds like "Ba-Dunk-a-Duuuuuunk!!!"

Gradius III Arcade, Final boss:

"I was born out of the greedyness of mankind. While man exists, so will I."
Very critical developers we got here

It's "Otousama" (Father). As much as I hate to admit it I say it after she does too.

"Border Up!" - Border Down

"Just a couple more shots!" - DDP

"Shoot the core!" - Gradius V

"This is not a drill!" - Under Defeat

WORRY, WORRY, BE CAREFUL!
GET DA BOMB!

There can't be a cooler announcer than Dimahoo's one.
I also like the UUAARRGGHH after destroying the red planets in gradius 5 stage 1. (everyone does)

Shocky · Post by **Shocky** » Tue Jul 29, 2008 9:35 am

DonPachi rules. And DOJ's "Just a couple more shots!". So does this:

And this:

Ed Oscuro wrote:"Staaaart" from Gradisu garaxi

Also:

Ikaruga robovoice
Giga Wing - "OK" (although I hear it as "forté")
Salamander - the monotonous boss voice: "An intruder has penetrated our force field"
"IBARA. -Oooi kakatte koi!"
Xybots - "Intruder alert, intruder alert... Intruder destroyed, intruder destroyed" (ok not a shmup, sorry)

Need moar vocoder and speech synthesizer.

I think it's WARNING, WARNING. Just pronounced more like WOURNING.
But for sure, that announcer is ace. (Also that game has one of the best attract sequences ever

)

Other personal favourites:

- to sum it up, all male Ibara voices (Dyne is awesome) sound neat as hell, also Lace as a damn hot voice

- The Gradius-Ship in the 5th part has the coolest Voice of all Gradius games,
and "What the Hell" was definetly his best comment.

- Ikaruga is a classic, what does the voice say when your missile gauge has filles up? However its such a lovely sound

- "You're reaching the target of attack! Your mission starts now, are you ready !!!"

- shiki 2 has awesome voice actors aswell, especially the dramatic death screams are awesome, here

-"OXANA"!, thats what i hear when you collect a powerup in mushi, but who the hell is oxana, the 3rd hidden character thats never mentioned in the game propably...?

- At very last i have to mention the german voice actor in under defeat, which supports the game with a very clear and understandable dialect, but talking absolutely nonsense, which makes him epic

The 'Bomber!' from Donpachi.

- I always thought she was saying 'OSAMA!'
