Gaming's worst accents
Many gamers revere the original Deus Ex, calling it one of the most revolutionary, forward-thinking games of all time. And while that may be true, it also features some shockingly awful voiceovers--like a Chinese woman who greets you with "Mistah J.C. Denton, in da fresh." Bad fake accents will immediately destroy your immersion in a game's world, usually by making you laugh out loud or gape in horror at their ridiculousness. From the hilariously bad to the blatantly racist, these are some of the worst offenders to ever irritate gamers' sensitive ears.
