A good chunk of terrible voice acting has been cataloged here:

Audio Atrocities

Though I gotta say, Mega Man 8's voice acting (okay, Dr. Light's) is hilariously terrible.
My old VG sites: Nintendo-A-GoGo, Game Frenzy, Nintendo's University of Classic Gaming
My current site: Jason Vincion - music and writing, though not much yet.

If I remember right Megaman pronounces Bass as the fish instead of the musical term in the same game.

Counterpoint: The best voice acting in videogames is Nier for PS3/360. Absolutely the best - tbh, nothing comes close.

I think it has to do with the writing and the inflection more than anything - I mean, c'mon - "What is a man? A miserable little pile of secrets." - who talks like that? :P

Dracula in the 18th century, that's who.

You know, I heard the SotN redub hidden on Dracula X Chronicles on PSP's voice acting... it's not... good. I mean, it's not overacted, it's better translated, but it's still... bad. And not even memorably bad like the original.

Wow that PSP was horrible compared to the original game. I tried to stomach the port but could not handle it because of choppy framerates in certain spots. The original felt like the VAs gave more pizzazz for the game. The translation really was good the first time around not so much the second time. Masterpieces such as this game should not have been touched

Honestly, the "miserable little pile of secrets" line alone is up there with "You spoony bard!!" Even if you're redoing it, for whatever reasons, that's one line you shouldn't change because it's so iconic.

Not voice-acting, but this is the single funniest video-game related thing I still go back to and laugh until i'm on the floor
