So many of you know that James Woods voices Hades in KH, right? Well in all honesty, I think that James delivers a lot better than most of the other voice actors in the game, even the main cast. None of his lines sound forced, and to top it off his voice is pretty awesome.

 

Examples: 

 

He sounds a lot more natural if you ask me. But of course, this is all just my opinion

 

So yeah, what do you guys think?

I think his voice is definitely one of my favorite kh voices. There are a couple others I rather like but for some reason I always liked his voice

yeah hes top 8 for sure

Well, it probably helps with his role since he was Hades in the actual Disney's Hercules movie

His voice acting is one of the reasons why I love Hades

He does an amazing job, but if I remember correctly his "I'm on fire." battle quote didn't sound as good in Bbs as it did in Kh2. Maybe top 3, after Mark Hamill and Leonard Nimoy. 25:23 on the first video, 18:56 on the second. He could have intended it for it to be different though.

Was James Woods the original voice actor for Hades? If not it's even more impressive. I would like to see him play more characters in the game. 

 

My favorite voice actor in KH is Christopher Lee though, his work as DiZ/Ansem was very well done and added a lot of texture to the character.

Yeah he played him in the movie, and I believe in the show as well. What's really amazing though is that Genie isn't voiced by Robin Williams, but the guy voice acting does a spot on impression of him. And agreed, I was really surprised to see "Dooku" of all people in a KH game. Liked him more than Corey Burton playing him haha

Yes! Yes! A thousand times, yes! Woods brings so much emotion and range into Hades. His delivery is always spot on with whatever mood or emotion a scene needs, and adds a ton of charisma into any scene he's in.

Hades is one of the few characters in KH who consistently speaks naturally.
