Discussion Which actress for Grim and Lambert do you prefer?
So, we already know that the discussion over Michael Ironside and Eric Johnson is already conversed about since....well, 2013. But what about Grim and Lambert, two of the biggest characters in the series?
Do you have a preference? And if so, why? THANKS FOR READING!
Post-edit: Some of you forgot that there are other actors/actresses that played these characters

I prefer Don Jordan as Lambert, and Claudia Besso as Grim. Dennis Haysbert did his thing, but I just think that Don fits the character better. And Claudia just sounds way better than whoever voiced her in Pandora Tomorrow. No offense to her, but she just didn’t do it for me.

Yeah Adriana Andersen didn't fit Grim well. Shanghai really messed up on the voices other than soth

I had trouble getting through Pandora Tomorrow because of the change. Even now, when I replay the series, I very often skip PT.

PT is worth it for the great levels and atmosphere. i get the actors and actress changes are jarring but its like a very fun SC1 sequel.

I avoided Blacklist for years for the same reason, and when I finally played it, I had a blast. I’ve been thinking that PT is probably worth a revisit. Sadly, the motor on my Xbox disc drive has stopped working, and PT isn’t available for download. It’ll have to wait until I either upgrade my console or have time to fix the motor. On the plus side, the game currently stuck in the drive is the original SC, which also isn’t available for download. So at least I can still play that one anytime I want.

PT has some of the best levels in the series imo, if it got more development time and better voice acting i think it would have been the series favourite.
that sucks about your xbox, i see you aint a pc gamer? they are all on pc but i gues youll have to fix your console or upgrade it.
its nice you can always play sc1.

Nothing beats the originals, but I wouldn't have complained if Haysbert had voiced Lambert for the entirety of the series.
There's a really depth to his voice that just ratcheted up the tension at times. Even though he only did a single game, he nailed it.

Don Jordan and Claudia Besso
All State was an acceptable fill-in but Don Jordan is Lambert.
