Um, Ezra Weisz is Ethan Murray. It even says it on his ANN page...

Why change a single voice? Wth. OH well, I won't buy it anyway. Was an insult to the game

Oh God... they ACTUALLY licensed this trainwreck of an adaptation?

Has there ever been an anime based on a game that wasn't an insult to said game? Anyone remember the Valkyria Chronicles anime? That might have been the worst game based anime.

Persona 4 was almost there. It had some faults but in the long run it's the best we'll get. Tales of the abyss was almost identical to the game to the point it had the exact same dialogue from the game. But those are the only two I can name. The others I'd say "Play the game instead"

Yes, in fact: Gungrave. It's quite honestly better than the game it's based on.
Also Rage of Bahamut, if you want to include digital card games.
The first two seasons and film of Sengoku Basara are also quite good. End of Judgment is a pile, though.

Hyperdimension Neptunia was a pretty terrible adaptation of the games with random elements cut and pasted from all three games with little rhyme or reason but it was still pretty fun as a standalone series and as a companion to the games.

I could swear that Tony Oliver voices Bang Shishigami in the video games. Or did he get replaced with Steve Kramer along the way?

The Inazuma Eleven anime were good, though they were based off of a Soccer RPG series on the DS/3DS.

Thank you. They kept the voices of my favorite characters, especially Hazamama.

Street Fighter II The Motion Picture
Fatal Fury
Virtua Fighter

All better fighting games than BlazBlue too!

vashthestampede1050, your question could also apply to anime that is based off of source material in general.

Yeah, rather odd that there was one person that they couldn't get from the LA cast.

While I am a little sad that it is the original cast minus Laura Bailey, I'm still glad it is coming out.
Can't wait to hear Hazama again in all of his evilness.

They were good programs.
Either way, this is a cash grab.
