Murloc sounds in WoW are pretty annoying too.

 

[Scrow]

yeah, I didn't mind Navi. Bring her back I reckon.

 

[SaitoH]

Anyone try the Inuyasha fighting game, four player? It's a wall of noise.

 

[Oxymoron]

In the training area in Fable, "Boy, you really showed Whisper" just about drove me crazy.

 

[bitwise]

hands down winner is the fucking annoying baby mario crying in Mario Kart: DD when he loses. sounds like a cat being strangled

Not a voice clip but that damn sound when someone is walking on metal floor. Originally aired in RE1, can now be found in any other games where the hero walks on metal.

"Clunk"

And I didn't mind Navi at all.

[Soundwave 2k4]

The little voice snippets in the Super Mario Advance games bug me. I think the original sound effects adequately conveyed the fact that the Fire Flower was, in fact, just what Mario needed.

This and the retarded change in the Link to the Past remake on GBA that has Link yelling EVERY SINGLE TIME you slash your sword. Anyone who has played that game on the SNES can easily imagine how annoying that would get, and it does. It is because of these unneeded voice effects added to the Mario and Zelda remakes that I am not sure whether to be excited or not for all those classic Nintendo games available for the Revolution. Sure it's just a sound effects but it really can ruin the experience when you hear it 1000 times within 5 minutes.

"BANG BANG ATTACK!" - Precis in Star Ocean 2
"Shake Shake!" - Silhouette Mirage
all of Mario's faux Italian accent sounds. Really, all the Italians from Brooklyn I know have a thick NYC/LI accent!

And Sudeki had too many to count...bad Cockney accents and Brits attempting to use American inflections EVERYWHERE. "HAWI! AWM SAWSAN MEEKO"

Soul Calibur games, in both English and Japanese (especially Japanese for the girls, and especially Taki and Xianghua)

If you're talking about Otogi, I chose Japanese voices from the start anyway.

 

[jgkspsx]

Nintendo has arguably the worst. The Mario 64 character voices suck -- and they've standardized them and dubbed them into rereleases. And damn if Nü Yoshi isn't the most annoying voice in gaming.

Link's grunts and cries aren't annoying in 3D but in 2D classic games they are not welcome. Navi annoys the hell out of me.

That's another good one. That announcer sounded like he was giving a self-esteem speech to 8 year olds.

I switched the game to Japanese voices because of that.

And I liked Navi. OoT had plenty of annoying problems, but Navi wasn't one of them.

In vanilla SF2 they used to say it a lot slower. Made for hilarious matches sometimes.

[Taichu]

I personally loved the gay skeleton in Puyo Pop Fever. TALK TO THE HAND!

-------------

Ashley's "song" in Wario Ware Touched. UGH. It sounds terrible, and you can't even make out what she is saying.

Also...

Any character talking ever in Banjo-Kaazooie. KWA-KWA-KWEH-KWA-KWA. Guga-GUGA-Guh guh guh guh. The Super Mario Sunshine blobs were bad too. MEGA A MA MEG MA MA!

The Stadium announcer. Yeah, someone already covered this, but it bears repeating. "RIIIDE THAT SURF!"

Boo laughing in Super Mario 64 DS.

 

[Flynn]

The most annoying, repetitive ones are usually the ones my wife takes notice of:

IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU NEED? (Kotor)

and

WHATCHA BUYIN'

[..pakbeka..]

We need more lumber

zero's "HU-HA-HOUHHHH" and X's "Oh, Take that" in megaman x4 (or was it megaman 8?)

any game where some character you must protect keeps yelling "help" or "save me"

Woah, no one has mentioned Baby Mario's cry in SMW2?

 

[hooded pitohui]

Woah, no one has mentioned Baby Mario's cry in SMW2?

I don't know if it counts as a voice, but My vote goes to Crying baby Mario in yoshi's island.

Babymario (Yoshi's Island).

[damnit he mentioned the baby]

The crying in Yoshi's Island is meant to be irritating and obnoxious!! It's there so you get him back on your back as fast as possible.

 

[GaimeGuy]

....

I suck. :lol

 

[Azure Dream]

The little voice snippets in the Super Mario Advance games bug me. I think the original sound effects adequately conveyed the fact that the Fire Flower was, in fact, just what Mario needed.

Another vote for this. It was at its worst in the original Super Mario Advance. It was already depressing that they added so little to their Mario launch title (don't even try to compare it to Super Mario 64 DS, the Mushroom in that ALONE rocketed it past any SMA comparisons), but the voices... Mario, he was OK (although ever since Mario 64, it's bugged me that they ditched the whole "Brooklyn" aspect of him, which had always been a part of his backstory and was voiced in three different cartoon series that way), but Luigi, for example, would chatter on for about two or three seconds every time he was hit (doesn't sound like much, but it just seems to last forever during gameplay), Toad had the strangled cat thing going on, and Peach... what the hell was _SHE_ doing spurting Italian stereotypes? "Mamma Mia!"

 

[mrkgoo]

Super Metroid intro.

To this day I still can't figure out if it's a woman or a man.

"The last metroid is in captivity. The galaxy is at peace."

I loved Super, and I loved voice acting in those days (it was a special treat), but that voice always creeped me out, and went a long way to de-convincing a witness to the greatness of Super.

"Hey check out this game- it's the best game on the SNES"
*starts up game*
"The last metroid is in captivity. the galaxy is at peace."
"That is so gay. I'm not playing this."

For the record, one of the coolest voice clips was from StarFox ending. For some reason, I played through the SNES version so many times, just to experience that ending:
"Congratulations ona job well done."
"Roger that, heading back to Corneria".

 

[Ristamar]

In vanilla SF2 they used to say it a lot slower. Made for hilarious matches sometimes.

That brought back a lot of memories.

I never minded Navi or the RE4 merchant. The TMNT voice samples were pretty annoying, as are some of the samples in Double Dash (though they're great for pissing other peopel off).

 

[Father_Brain]

The battle voices in Skies of Arcadia.

 

[Soul4ger]

Most of the cast of Rayman 3. Weren't repetitive just.. Stupid. After Rayman 2, Rayman 3 seriously killed the series in my mind. Yuck.

Holy shit! That page is comedy gold. So many classics. Megaman 8 is one of my favourite crappy voiceover offenders.

"The last metroid is in captivity. The galaxy is at peace."

It was a man. I can't remember his name but he was a Nintendo employee. He handled localizations I think?
