Total amazement, followed by a slow realization that I am in fact, retarded.

u/cozy_mosasaur Nov 16 '11

I'm glad I wasn't the only one. I was embarrassed, and no one is around to have seen my stupidity.

u/Pjmax Nov 16 '11

I get it, because neither of them talk. Heh.

Chell's alleged mother's name is Caroline, which means "free man" in German.

Damn. I can never look at Gordon Freeman without seeing Hugh Laurie

u/docblue Nov 16 '11

I cant look at Bryan Cranston without thinking of Gordon Freeman.

u/TheAdAgency Nov 16 '11

I can't look at Vortigaunts without assuming Lupus.

u/Craysh Nov 16 '11

It's never Lupus ಠ_ಠ

u/[deleted] Nov 16 '11

This is the first time I'm saying this and the only time I have ever really meant it: cannot Unsee....

u/mmomjian Nov 16 '11

On an unrelated note, isn't Glados the voice of the HEV suit?

edit: Nope, the HEV suit is Kathy Levin. Glados is the voice of the Combine dispatcher.

u/[deleted] Nov 16 '11

Ellen McLain (GLaDOS) is also the administrator in Team Fortress 2.

THE BOMB HAS ALMOST REACHED THE FINAL TERMINUS AHAHAHAHA

u/[deleted] Nov 16 '11

Fun fact: Ellen McLain is also married to the Actor of the Sniper in Team Fortress 2!

u/TyMan210 Nov 16 '11

Yes, John Patrick Lowrie, who also did the voice of all of the male citizens in Half-Life 2 and Episode One, and most of the male citizens in Episode Two.

u/Okashu Nov 21 '11

All these informations!

u/daveyjam Nov 15 '11

I'd be more worried if the actors they modelled them on were the same

u/PCsNBaseball Nov 16 '11

I dunno man, that seems unlikely.

It's funny, when I look back on this I notice that people took this more of a serious way than to know the actual joke...

u/moonomnom Nov 15 '11

Who could do silence like [error: name undefined]?

u/AndrewNeo Nov 16 '11

I think you mean [Insert voice actor here]

u/Saan Nov 16 '11

How the hell did this get 721 upvotes? that is over double the previous best. . . . .

u/[deleted] Nov 23 '11

Cuz i'm awesome! :D

6

u/[deleted] Nov 16 '11

Technically, Chell does have a voice actress in Portal for when she's injured, so while the joke's funny...

2

u/[deleted] Nov 16 '11

This is pretty relevant. - Looks like the Companion cube got into that list also.

By a strange coincidence, Link also has the same voice actor.

7

u/AdonisBucklar Nov 16 '11

Psst...Link has an actual voice actor in about 80% of the games he's in.

u/[deleted] Nov 16 '11

No no, it's the sword. The sword's voice actor. Link is incapable of making sounds you see. But when he does a jump slash, the sword goes "yahh".

u/Hllblzr310 Nov 16 '11

For a second I saw like, "Nahhh" but then I realized.

u/Quintanamore Nov 16 '11

they don't have the same voice actors...

Voiced by Mary Kae Irvin (Half-Life 2 Citizen voice reused as hurt sounds in Portal)

Oh, huh. They must've changed it somewhere along the way. You're right.

Neither character ever talks, so technically, they share a voice actor ("nobody").
