I wasn't doing best lines. I was doing what I thought were the best examples to use.

"Come back here and finish this Lee!" -Andy St. John (Adam Harrington)

...Dat soundtrack..

this poll is a little bit unfair because some actors had much less lines than the others

True, but would you say that is an advantage or a disadvantage? The more lines an actor has, the greater the chance that she/he fucks up, don't you think?

[Fiddle Diddle]

I never really liked Chuck's line: "Ask not... bell tolls... etc. etc. etc." It felt out of place and real forced... I mean really, as though any human being in that situation wouldn't say "Hey guys, look!" or better yet, "Shit! Shit!!" I guess his line makes more sense in the trailer than it does in the episode.

I voted for Lee's line "It's Over!" and Andy St. John's line had a very close second, mostly because I think the dialogue exchange between them at the end of Episode 2 was brilliant... particularly when Lee leaves Andy to die and Andy just moans "Lee, Lee..." it had chilling effect on me.

Actually, I think Episode 2 had most of the best voice acting, and was the most cinematic of all the episodes. For instance when Lee tells everyone at the dinner table about Mark, the nervous chatter that follows is excellent.

Honorable Mention: Kenny when Lee talks him down to stop the train. His voice acting made me very sad. I couldn't be mad at him again after that.

Look at Chuck and Andy. They currently have eight votes. High for this poll, yet Andy only appeared in Episode 2, and Chuck in the end of 3, and beginning of 4.

Oh my god, I couldn't choose between Andy and Chuck. Andy's death was very emotional, and the first time I've felt pity for a psychopath. On the other hand, when I first saw chuck I thought I wouldn't like him(being a dirty hobo). But he really grew on me, and the Bell line was very epic.

Lee all the way.

(ch1) You want to get violent you old fuck?! I'm not gonna let you lay a hand on him or ANYONE! IT'S ME BEFORE ANYONE ELSE!!

Lee to Larry when he wanted to throw Duck out in the street.

(ch2) I said.. IT'S OOOOVER!!

To Andy St. John after you decide to not kill him.

(ch3) YOU.... are NOT coming with us!

To Lilly after... I still can't believe she did that =(

Really haven't picked a favorite line from ch4 though... still in shock over what happened at the end =(

its to hard to think of the best, so i tried to think of the worst and work backwards but i couldn't do that either.

In most games i turn on subtitle straight away because there is often a disconnect between how the person is delivering the lines and how the words work together in the context of the scene, but with TWD i could even miss a few words and still get the feeling of what they were saying (like in real life) the only reason i have recently turned subtitles on is because i always do and noticed they weren't on.

So i congratulate the actors for doing a great job, and also whoever it is that lets the actors know exactly how they are supposed to deliver the lines so they sound like they are in the same place in the game as me and not just some non-contextualised reading of lines.

Chucks line is epic. If chuck survived in episode 4 do you think he would dig up the dog and bury fivel the attic boy. LOLOLOL. Chucks mighty shovel

[Milosuperspesh]

what no clems: i don't know...

for shame..

[slough]

Man I can't really choose, but...

I just wanted to say, Trevor Hoffman, if you're reading this, really well done for your first voice acting job (at least that's what I've read). You make Ben really believable. All the voice acting in this game is super inspiring.

Chuck's voice actor (Roger Jackson) is pretty awesome in general. He played the voice of Ghostface in the Scream series, and Abe Lincoln in Sam and Max!

[TrueXus]

"Come back here and finish this Lee!" -Andy St. John (Adam Harrington)"

I just plan out loved this scene, possibly my favorite of the game along with the music.

i sort of forget he has such a cool voice, but it was a very important part of his character, i don't think his ideas or presence would have been accepted as much if he had a squeaky whiney voice

[zgamer]

I voted for Lee because it is the singular best performance of the whole cast, but that is in no way a diss on the great acting from everyone in the ensemble. Just about everyone had great line delivery throughout and even if I am conflicted in how I feel about certain characters, the acting is always top notch for them. So bravo Telltale for picking a great cast!

I would say his line when the twist came at the end was the best. That reaction of his was just spot-on. "No...no....no...oh, f**k"

According to the wiki, Cissy Jones (who played Katjaa) voiced Jolene and Brie too. My mind has been blown. Katjaa and Jolene are probably the furthest accents away from each other that I can think of.

[Irishmile]

I must say there is NOT a bad one in the bunch.. all the parts are really acted well.. BUT I am partial to Nicki Rapp.. the woman is such a sweetheart and I really dig her.. so she gets my vote.

When Molly is beating the shit out of that doctor zombie. Her dialogue there was as good as can possibly be done. The anger and hurt felt real.
