GTA IV Voice Actor Shunned by Rock Star Games Family

February 10, 2009 by SSXallnight

VICE CITY - Someone should have told voice actor Michael Hollick that performing like a pampered Princess Peach would make him one of the lost and the damned, almost literally.

Months after complaining that his salary for his performance of the lead character, Niko Bellic, was meager compared to profits made by the company on sales of Grand Theft Auto IV; the word around town is that Rock Star Games has no interest in giving the voice actor new lines in the expansion, "The Lost and the Damned". An executive has allegedly said "hell no" to the notion of bringing Hollick back to the studio.

This just goes to show you that people involved with organized crime, in any fashion, no matter how fictional, do not put up with whiners. Luckily for Hollick, his life is nothing like the life of his video game counterpart or he'd probably be locked inside the trunk of a car by now, accompanied by a group of large, heavy rocks, inside of a body bag, on his way to the river for a "swim".

Hey Rock Star, I've got an idea for an additional expansion pack...

Recheck your credit card balance -- if you're close to the limit, now is the time to settle up. There are lots of ways to manage debt like shaking trees and selling the apples that fall out. If you didn't understand this piece of advice, it's because you don't play Animal Crossing, and therefore, are not a complete idiot. Congratulations.

We've all been in that situation we hate. In the 9th hour of a Smash Brothers Brawl, or Halo 3 session when Mr. hunger comes knocking on our stomach lining like an angry husband returning from a deadly salmon run to find you sleeping with his wife.

Top 7 Iron Mans

May 27, 2008 by Micah Bleich

No, we didn’t make a mistake. The title is, in fact, “Top 7 Iron Mans,” not “Iron Men.” We’re counting down the 7 people that have best honored the iron name with great accomplishments and general bad-assery. Some of these may shock you, but rest assured, they are rated by the highest authorities on the subject matter (or any subject matter, as far as we’re concerned): hardcore gamers.
