Seeing as the games industry makes more than movies I wouldn’t be surprised if more actors don’t exclusively go towards acting in games. It pays well I think and typically the work schedule is better I believe(someone confirm or deny this?). I’d love to see more actors on the games side and not as PR stunts.

Nah man, having to act every time someone starts playing the game must get pretty old fast.

Could you imagine getting the alert that someone just installed your game fifty years later?
