DA PAUL Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 (edited) so in the trailers its deffo him and the guy from digital extremes had some lame answer"thats nolan helping us out-we havent announced yet who is jackie-that's not to say it isnt nolan"-lol if it isnt nolan fucking say so you geek!! Dont get me wrong i love him as nathan drake but i thought the first guy kirk acevedo was fantastic as jackie and id love to know why they didnt go back to him. Personally to me now this is turning into one of those bad movie sequels-you know the shit i mean splash 2 teenwolf 2 ha ha and all that shit. your views?

Blood_Runs_Cold Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 While I have nothing against Nolan North, I was more than happy with the work Kirk did on Dakness 1. In my eyes, (ears actually lol) he IS Jackie! Anybody else is just a damn pretender to the throne.... Including "bean in everything" Nolan North. My 2 cents. I'll have to go and watch the trailer again though, it just doesn't sound like Nolan to me... I'll check it out. BTW, that is a kickass song in the trailer, I wonder who it is and what it's called.

DA PAUL Posted June 28, 2011 Author Share Posted June 28, 2011 hey blood!-yeah the guy from digital extremes confirmed nolan was helping them out on the trailer-but wouldnt confirm who is voicing jackie-man they were quick to confirm the same guy was voicing the darkness so its strange.... while i'll still give the game every oppurtunity and buy it,it would be a huge dissapointment if that was the case.

Blood_Runs_Cold Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 Maybe Nolan is going to be doing multiple VA jobs for D2, but the OG voice actor is attached to do Jackie. that's what I'm hoping for anyway lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolDust Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) Thats Nolan North and no mistake! As much as i really want Kirk back at least he was replaced by someone decent. Although if they said "Nolan is helping with the trailer" maybe he was just lending his voice for the trailer and not the game? I havent heard Jackie talk in any of the gameplay shown. So maybe the voice recording for him aint done yet. MIKE PATTON!! Maybe Nolan is going to be doing multiple VA jobs for D2, but the OG voice actor is attached to do Jackie. that's what I'm hoping for anyway lol! Haha i actually never seen your post but this is what im thinking too. Edited July 15, 2011 by CoolDust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UndergroundHipHopHead Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Why not kirk? What happened? I hate when they do stuff like this. At least in a game it isn't as bad as the movies usually do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutch_2100 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Supposedly some guy named Brian Bloom will be voicing Jackie in The Darkness II. Link: Brian Bloom confirmed as the new voice of Jackie Estacado | The Gaming Liberty.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverdante87 Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Nolan North does amazing VO but just like cole from infamous, if you go too far from what the first game did, gamers get grumpy. The first jackie worked. I felt that the actor was able to get into who jackie is at the core. http://www.yourgamercards.net/trophy/a/Silverdante87.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And btw, who the hell is brian Bloom!!?!?!?!? this upsets me greatly.... Oh well, can't complain too much. At least the game is FINALLY coming out! With that in mind, I wouldn't care if the guys who did Papa Smaurf's voice was jackie as long as the game makes it out. We can't have everything..

Anomanderuselnu Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I thought Jackie's voice was really irritating in the demo, especially after play Dragon Age 2, he sounds exactly like he did when he voiced Varric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA PAUL Posted February 1, 2012 Author Share Posted February 1, 2012 the new jackie's credentials include posing for playgirl!!when i checked him up on wikepedia,lol-i wonder if thats one of the secret trophies too??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jwblizzard Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 the new jackie's credentials include posing for playgirl!!when i checked him up on wikepedia,lol-i wonder if thats one of the secret trophies too??? HAHAHA, one could only hope that it's one of the secret ones...or DLC. Seriously though, the voice from the first game really made the experience special, especially with the excellent hand talking that he was always doing. In the Darkness 2, he just sounds generic. I'll hold off until I see what some people are saying about it when it comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutch_2100 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Yep, the general consensus is that the new voice of Jackie is bad, its unfortunate that they changed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanfundy Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Nolan North has done great so far in everything, but I got the feeling I'm gonna miss Kirk and the wonderful job he did with The Darkness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemegeton300 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Nolan North is a really cool guy and i have a lot of respect for him but there has got to be plenty of good unknown voice actors out there that deserve a shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingSigy Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Nolan played Young Jackie in the original, so it's not surprising they had him fill in the lead spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doomsdayman Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I really want Kirk he really god a really good mob voice and it's really great hearing him again. A well we got Mike Patton ass the Darkness again he's just so amazing with that voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving On Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Just be glad not every voice in every game is Nolan North. But seriously, I usually don't have problems with same voice actors popping up in different games, but when a few of them get so recognizable, it can take you out of the immersive aspect of a game.
