Was hilarious to find out in the Fallout 3 Wiki that Stephen Russell (aka Garrett) did the Voice Overs for Harold the Tree in Fallout 3...:eek:
Quote:
Stephen Russell is a voice actor who voices Harold in Fallout 3, taking over from Charlie Adler, who voiced the character in Fallout and Fallout 2.
Russell most known for his voice acting in the Thief game series as the protagonist Garrett. He also voiced Karras, chief antagonist of Thief II: The Metal Age, as well as voicing some of the minor characters in the series. Russell additionally contributed the voice of the starship Von Braun's central computer XERXES and that of William Bedford Diego in Irrational Games' System Shock 2. He has since become a popular figure in both communities.

Can't believe I missed that
(Stephen's vocal talents never cease to amaze me..) - but remember how good the voice was during that interaction. Way to go Garrett!! :thumb:
Something tells me Mr Emil Pag needed to make sure Garrett was in there somewhere....lol(

I think this was already said in some other topic. I even saw a video of that tree. Phew - didn't sound like Garrett at all. :D

Harold sounds a lot more like Benny than Garrett. Of course, Benny was also voiced by Russell.

Garrettwannabe, don't worry about it, with that obscure thread title to begin with, sometimes searches fail. ;)

He didn't use his real voice (which is the one he uses for Garrett). Harold sounds similar to his "Benny the Guard" voice at times.
Personally I always wanted to hear more of Stephen's "Xerxes" voice, my favourite loony computer of all time. ;)
EDIT: Wait a minute... It just struck me like an epiphany that the mr Handy robots are also voiced by Stephen! A quick look at the credits confirms this! :D

Yeah, the hippies who live in the oasis that grew around Harold worship him as a god.

One of the combat responses by the mr. Handy robots (the ones voiced by Stephen) really made me chuckle:
