The voice actor for Harry Mason in Silent Hill (always credited as "Michael G." in games) is a man named Michael Guinn. His identity was not known until yesterday.

It's an interview, what did you expect? Just skip the parts about his personal life

Yeah I thought the same but then again there's nothing bad in being proud of oneself now is there

I'm about halfway through it and he doesn't seem that egotistical. If anything he's just super excited someone finally asked him to do an interview which I'd probably be too if I voiced an iconic video game character yet no one ever approached me about it for twenty years.

He's probably enjoying his 2 mins of fame while the interviewer licks his bullocks clean, but even then I can't stand the way he's trying to play humble while boosting his ego.

Never trust that someone putting himself into the good role through the entire situation has a 100% accurate telling of the events.

Wow he actually has a great curriculum , i thiught the role of dracula in SOTN would be another guy also called michael G, and the ridge racer announcer? So cool

Sheesh, what is wrong with you losers.
Have you never read an interview with someone before?

This person was never interviewed before so hes just bringing up every detail someone may have wanted to know the answer to in the questioning.

The reason taylor swift for example doesnt go on and on about her self in an interview is because you already know her life, shes a huge famous movie star, this guy you know nothing about and now you do thats to him going into detail about his success

Meant rock star (musician) not movie star, although I think shes in one.

That was a fun read. He seemed like a chill guy from the interview, I don't get where some of you are getting that he sounded egotistical. Like, what did you expect? Him to be a depressed, self hating autist who belittles himself during an interview with someone who was clearly eager to communicate with him? He seems to genuinely love voice acting and sharing his story with someone who obviously cared about hearing it. If he were truly an egotistical prick, don't you think he would've gone around parading himself as "the one and only Michael G., the voice of Harry and Dracula and RIIIDGGGEE RAAAACER" as soon he found out that people cared about those roles? Encouraging people to study their craft and not just rely on raw talent is definitely a good message.

They have probably never read anything before, they are just autistics who are oversensitive to all kinds of unpredictable things.

i like how all these obscure actors are suddenly reappearing.

It's because we're approaching peak fame. The number of "celebrities" has gotten so huge that we need to have popularity contests between celebrities on TV to determine who is actually famous.
