I don't want to meet him without sound, DON'T HURT ME!

I don't want to meet him without sound, DON'T HURT ME!

This is the one thing I can really agree with you.

Valve has just confirmed to CVG that The Office actor and co-writer Stephen Merchant will star in Portal 2.
...

When we spoke to Valve at E3 - where Wheatley was first unveiled - they told us that the English voice behind the character was "just some guy from our office".

Our office. The Office.

And here's some new footage of Portal 2 from Gamescom: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRxafex-1Ec

Well, the new voice actor for Wheatley seems good, but I'm surprised his voice doesn't have a "robot filter" still. He sounds too human and organic. :/

 

[Okrag]

Oh god I am never going to get past the fact that it is Stephen Merchant.

 

[grazr]

The guy still sounds like he's reading from a piece of paper...

 

[Micnax]

I prefer the original actor. Stephen Merchant makes it sound like a British Homer Simpson.

 

[Ida]

At least Stephen doesn't have an annoying lisp. :/

 

[Dr. ROCKZO]

Ah Fuck. I listen to the Ricky Gervais podcast. Which now features: Ricky Gervais, Karl Pilkington and Wheatley. Damnit Valve!

 

[Jakkarra]

Rowan Atkinson should Voice Wheatley.

Or Rik Mayall. They would both be great. Maybe even Adrian Edmundson, any of them would have a nice spin.

 

[Exist]

Someone should give Rick work...

on a side note, the new voice annoys me less.

 

[Numerous]

Everyone knows that Wheatley should be voiced exclusively by Rick Astley.

Everyone knows that Wheatley should be voiced exclusively by Rick Astley.

I think you mean Stephen Fry

 

[Dragonstorm24]

Stephen Fry.

He would be goddamn perfect. I salute you, joodude.

 

[Prestige]

New Voices for Wheatley + Other Robots Confirmed

Rowan Atkinson should Voice Wheatley.

Rowan Atkinson can't speak. He just opens his mouth and bizarre sounds come out.

New Voices for Wheatley + Other Robots Confirmed

I'm sorry but they'd have to wear a suit to the interview which would be far too institutional for them.

 

[Ida]

Stephen Fry just sounds too nice. Like a big huggy bear.

Everyone knows that Wheatley should be voiced exclusively by Rick Astley.

He actually would have been good.
