I thought he did a good job

 

[TC McQueen]

Oh shit, it is him? I thought it was, but I've never played God of War, so I didn't know if it was a soundalike.

 

[TGO]

Well we've had Claudia Black as Chloe in Uncharted, Now Christopher Judge as Kratos
Just need Michael Shanks, Amanda Tapping and Richard Dean-Anderson now lol

 

[mysteriousmage09]

Sounded fine though hopefully they didn't just toss T.C. Carson aside without talking to him first. If I find out this is like what Blizzard did with SCII originally with Robert Clotworthy i'm gonna be pissed.

 

[Static Veins]

Used to watch SG-1 a load when I was a kid. Recognised his voice immediately. He did a great job.

 

[Ran rp]

I sued to watch that show alot.

damn americans

 

[Deleted member 471617]

Nice!!! I knew it was him last night but checking his Wikipedia page, he wasn't listed as being the voice actor for Kratos so I thought I was wrong but happy, I was right and going by his Stargate character, he should be perfect for God of War.

What we need is a Stargate game!!!

 

[Nirolak]

I thought Kratos sounded different, yet still super familiar.

 

[J_Viper]

Damn, wonder what happened with TC? I always loved his performance.

 

[PsihoPerihelion]

Phew, at least it wasn't Troy Baker.

 

[LowParry]

I'm okay with this. Did a fantastic job with Kratos.

 

[Loudninja]

damn americans

LOL my bad.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

That is pretty amazing.

 

[Mixolydian]

Wow. As an SG fan, I'm embarrassed I didn't catch this.

 

[Vinland]

Proper SG1 game when?

Seems to be on the cutting room floor right next to that MMO game.

I thought that sounded like Judge last night. I am ok with this. Hope the other guy is doing a villain.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Fuck yes! He was one of my favorite actors in SG-1!

 

[Chris_C]

This makes a lot of sense. Christopher Judge has quite a bit of range as a voice actor, and I was surprised at how nuanced the performance in the demo was.

 

[Pinko Marx]

"FIND. IT."
Wew got chills from that line. Real excited to see more.

 

[Data West]

So they got a guy to replace TC that... sounds like TC?

why?

 

[jackdoe]

Yeah, it was definitely beyond the range that TC Carson displayed in any of the previous God of War games.

 

[InsaneTiger]

Now I miss Stargate.

[Rastafarian42]

really great choice tbh he sounded enough like TC Carson and sounded like its own interpretation.

 

[Hydrus]

Kinda glad they decided to recast. Carson was/ is great and his Kratos will always be iconic, but I felt like he started to loose the vocal power starting with GOW 3. Started sounding less powerful and more higher.

 

[Nirolak]

Thinking about it, he does know a lot about Norse mythology.

 

[InsaneTiger]

I love TC but after six games I found his voice performance to be as if he is always yelling but at different tones.

Christopher Judge brings a lot of range, I bet he is doing the mo-cap too.

 

[RoboPlato]

Cool

Could tell it was someone different but wasn't sure who. From the demo he sounds like a damn good choice, although I did love Carson's performance.

 

[Nzyme32]

Ah awesome!! Thought the voice was familiar but couldn't place it.

Love the new direction of God of War. That makes a total of three games I want on PS4. At this rate I may end up having to buy one!

A Serpent guard, a Horus guard, and a Setesh guard meet on a neutral planet. It is a tense moment. The Serpent guard's eyes glow, the Horus guard's beak glistens, and the Setesh guard's nose drips.



I think that's about right.

I didn't even click the link.

 

[sjay1994]

Explains things.

Was wondering why Kratos didn't sound like Carson.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

Teal'c from Stargate? You mean D-Mob from the Def Jam games.

You and me, we's like kindred spirits

 

[Elfforkusu]

Indeed.

Indeed.

I guessed it was Christopher Judge when i first heard it. He has a very distinct voice, indeed!

I knew it his voice and the way he says things stand out a mile, I said it in the other threads
Christopher Judge is the perfect fit for Kratos too you can just paint him in Ash and red war paint and it's Kratos, even his Teal'c character reminded me of him or the otherway round lol.

Indeed.

Indeed.

 

[ShinoguTakeruKoeru]

Caught the PlayStation livestream thing that he was on, and if they were looking for an actor who could do that voice and also have the general body and face to do the motion-acting, I think Christopher Judge nails it. He has some facial hair so when the livestream showed him there I even thought he looks like Kratos. >_>

I'm also very stoked by his mindset in approaching this new spin on Kratos, with Kratos trying to understand fatherhood having never been a son to a conventional father, that sorta thing.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

I can pull the details out of most episodes of the show, right down to the music cues.

 

[Mithos]

I fucking knew it. Recognize T anywhere.

Indeed.

Was he interviewed or something? Is there a YouTube link?

 

[Skux]

Holy shit. From one badass to another.

Well I laughed.

 

[Daingurse]

Haha, my brother will love this. He binged the shit outta Stargate.

 

[Allnamestakenlol]

Ha - I knew it!

 

[Aki-at]

My mind was getting confused when I heard his voice, I thought it was Kratos because it sounded familiar, but it sounded familiar because it was Teal'c!

His got a brilliant voice and loved him as Magneto in X-Men: Evolution too.

Oh man how I loved Stargate.

 

[WaterAstro]

lol really?

That's awesome.

 

[bitbydeath]

So kratos truly is a black man trapped in a white man's body.

Just the ashes make him look white, here's a shot of him from GoW1.

 

[ShinoguTakeruKoeru]

Was he interviewed or something? Is there a YouTube link?

Him and Cory Barlog who has returned! It was in the Day 1 PlayStation livecast, I linked the timecode from the full day broadcast here.

 

[PuppetMaster]

Fuck yes! Judge is awesome!

 

[Tambini]

Knew it wasn't TC Carson straight away

 

[Savitar]

Finally, I can post this.

Christopher Judge learns about furries at a SG1 convention panel

 

[DeepEnigma]

I KNEW IT!!!

I said this very thing to my girlfriend while hearing his delivery. The way he said words that end with the letter 'n', reminded me of Teal'c. Told her I think it is Chris Judge. Even more pumped now!!!

Love SG1.

Indeed.
