Funny thing about Isla mentioning Suikoden in the VO question! I was just playing through the first two games, and was assigning actors in my head as I was reading through all that dialogue. Some of the cast I'd come up with include -Kyle Hebert (Adult Gohan, Ryu) as Viktor In the first game it was Harrison Ford, but the instant I saw his portrait in 2, Hebert just popped into my head and stayed there -Claire Danes as Cleo -Daveigh Chase as Nanami -Lucien Dodge (Felix from Fire Emblem) as Jowy -Lakeith Stanfield as Richmond And I couldn't help it... Every time he'd have an evil cackle moment my brain just automatically would cast... -Brad Dourif as Luca Blight

I didn't understand the "Gandalf 2" reference they made a few times during the embracer group discussion. Did they mention this as a joke game before at some point?
See You When I Get There
