Pixels are all you need for an [[Large Ham|overactor]].
----
* Joachim Valentine (a.k.a. "CHAMPION OF JUSTICE, Grand Papillon!") from ''[[Shadow Hearts (Video Game)|Shadow Hearts]]: Covenant''.
* The ''[[Disgaea]]'' universe simply [[World of Ham|drips with ham]].
** ''[[Disgaea (Video Game)|Disgaea]]'' has The Dark Adonis, [[Meaningful Name|Mid-Boss]], Vulcanus, and '''Captain Gordon, Defender of Earth!''' Even [[Love Freak|Flonne]] can get quite ham handed with the Power of Love.
*** Axel the (washed-up) Dark Hero from ''Disgaea 2''. Adell can get pretty [[Incredibly Lame Pun|Hot Blooded]] at times, also.
** ''Disgaea 3'' has a ton, Master Big Star, Mr. Champloo, Salvatore the Magnificent, Gold Knuckle, and Mao. (The [[Vic Mignogna|English version]] is [[Fullmetal Alchemist|Edward Elric]] under the [[Berserk Button]] constantly).
*** The ''great'' and ''terrible'' [[The Napoleon|King Laharl]].
** Valvatorez from ''[[Disgaea 4 a Promise Unforgotten (Video Game)|Disgaea 4 a Promise Unforgotten]]''. Let's just say fans have [[Counterpart Comparison|compared]] him to [[Code Geass|Lelouch]] and end it at that.
* Whenever a character casts a spell in ''[[Arc Rise Fantasia]]'', with the exception of [[The Straight Man|Rastan]], they're almost always over the top. Dyno's summoning chant is particularly notable amongst the fanbase, and easily the most memorable line in the game.
* Elsewhere in the [[Nippon Ichi|Nippon Ichiverse]], we have ''[[Phantom Brave (Video Game)|Phantom Brave]]'''s [[Revenge Before Reason|Sprout]], who puts the "roaring" in [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]] on a regular basis.
{{quote| '''BLASPHEMY INCARNATE!!!! DARK EBOREUS!!!!'''}}
* Luca Blight of ''[[Suikoden II (Video Game)|Suikoden II]]'' is made of this trope. "DIE, PIG!!!!" "[[Pitiful Worms|A million maggots are still maggots]]!!!! I'll slaughter you all!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!". Yes, he usually ends sentences with at least 4 exclamation marks.
** While we're still in ''[[Suikoden (Video Game)|Suikoden]]'', [[Knight in Shining Armor|The Maximillian]] [[For Great Justice|Knights]] are [[Large Ham|Large Hams]] to some extent, though Fred Maximillian from ''[[Suikoden III (Video Game)|III]]'' takes the cake. Ironically, this makes him a horrible actor in theater plays.
* King Bohan from ''[[Heavenly Sword]]'' definitely qualifies, mugging for the camera, asking questions on how his generals DO what they do, and enjoying everything he does.
** Flying Fox, from the same game, also qualifies. [http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6o8apullXM "I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE styyyyyyle!"].
* ''[[Gears of War (Video Game)|Gears of War]]'': Private Augustus Cole. His usual manner of fighting the enemy involves amusing insults and taunts, which escalates into a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] in Gears 2, Act 4 when Delta hacks into the Locust Queen's propaganda and Cole delivers a frenzied slew of insults over the loudspeakers of the entire capital city.
* ''[[Dynasty Warriors]]'', ''[[Samurai Warriors]]'', and the ''[[Warriors Orochi]]'' crossover games (in short, KOEI's entire Warriors franchise) has this in spades; a majority of the characters, both male and female, act according to an apparently obvious (often "judge a book by a cover" level) archetype.
** The scary thing is, it's not certain whether that's so or whether this is mere [[Flanderization]] and it's the ''[[Romance of the Three Kingdoms (Literature)|original source material]]'' that's more hammy.
* SNK's [[Fighting Game|Fighting Games]] have their share of [[Large Ham|Large Hams]] as it is, but special mention must go to [[Fatal Fury|Wolfgang Krauser]], voiced by B. J. Love. Krauser's lines range from the slightly narmy "I'LL CHISEL YOUR GRAVESTONE! SLEEEEEP WELL!" to his ending in ''Fatal Fury Special'', in which he bellows out, "'''WOW! WHAT A TOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!'''" without even trying to fix the mistranslation.
* ''[[The Elder Scrolls (Video Game)|The Elder Scrolls]]'''s Sheogorath and Malacath.
** [[The Guards Must Be Crazy|The Imperial Guards]]. "BY THE NINE DIVINES! THERE'S BEEN A '''MURDER'''!"
** Dagoth Ur in ''Morrowind''.
Line 33:
*** Nords in general tend to have an on/off switch for hamminess. They'll go from quiet and polite to "I'LL RIP YER HEART OUT!" upon sighting an enemy.
** Daedric Princes...ARE...A RICH...source of...MEATY HAM! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
* Most villains in the ''[[Metal Gear Solid (Video Game)|Metal Gear Solid]]'' games qualify for this, particularly [[Magnificent Bastard]] Revolver Ocelot and Liquid Snake; when the two end up sharing a body, the ham goes to untold levels. The incredibly melodramatic [[Death Seeker]] Fortune is even insultingly called a ham actress by one of the other characters... In this case, [[Hypocritical Humor|Ocelot himself.]]
** Snake? Snake?! '''SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!'''
** [[Let's Play]]: General Ironicus noted that Otacon is the only character in ''Metal Gear'' that doesn't overact by nature.
* [[Super Smash Bros (Video Game)|Super Smash Bros]]: ''[[World of Ham|Everyone]]'' is this in ''[[F-Zero]]'', particularly after ''GX''. Even the straight-faced, to-the-point Captain Falcon.
* ''[[League of Legends]]'' DEMACIA!!!
** League of Legends could almost have it's own page - so many of the characters ham it up in their quotes. Veigar and Nocturne are particularly hammy. The 'Brolaf' skin for Olaf certainly counts too.
Line 43:
** Chaos. "RICHAAAAARD!"
** '''MICHAEL!''' counts too
* Bang Shishigami, '''THE HAMMER OF JUSTICE!!!''', from ''[[Blaz Blue (Video Game)|Blaz Blue]]''.
** "NOW JUMP! INTO MY '''[[Rated "M" for Manly|MANLY]]''' CHEST!!!"
*** To rid this world of evil, HE SHALL BECOME THE <ref> HAMMER</ref> OF JUSTICE!!!
Line 58:
** And Iron Tager?:
{{quote| "Any last words!? THIS IS GOING TO BE... '''YOUR END'''!!"}}
** In fact, it's probably easier to say that ''[[Blaz Blue (Video Game)|Blaz Blue]]'' is a [[World of Ham]], because '''''every single character''''' is a [[Large Ham]] at some point.
* Eric Avari as [[Zork (Video Game)|Grand]] [[Big Bad|Inquisitor]] [[Large Ham|Yannick]]: "AND NEVER FORGET! WHO IS THE BOSS OF YOU? ME! ''I'' AM THE ''BOSS'' OF YOU...I ''AM'' THE BOSS OF ''YOU''...I ''AM'' THE ''BOSS'' OF YOU!"
* Kratos from ''[[God of War (Video Gameseries)|God of War]]''. [[Badass|But the gods help you]] [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge|if you call him that to his face]].
** [[Rage Against the Heavens|... which they probably can't, so it's better not to do so at all]].
** And everyone else. Is there anyone who isn't hammy?
* The person playing Max from ''[[Tales of Eternia (Video Game)|Tales of Eternia]]'' was obviously having a blast playing him, exclaiming "YEAH!" with great gusto at every possible opportunity, and generally overacting to hilarious degrees in a ridiculously manly voice. This is all the more noticeable next to most of the rest of the English version voice cast, who, by contrast, ''tend'' to sound rather bored or half-asleep at even the most dramatic moments in the game.
** Same thing applies to battle. Even in the Japanese. Everyone else's [[Calling Your Attacks|battle shouts]] are up to par, but Fog just takes it to the next level with his '''"BAANING FORCE!"''' Pity the anime didn't include him.
** Official ''[[Tales of Phantasia (Video Game)|Tales of Phantasia]]'' English intro, anyone?
{{quote| '''Morrison:''' THOU art at the GATE to the UNDERWORLD... Come forth, THUNDER of the GODS!<br />
'''Dhaos:''' WHAT the HECK is THAT!?<br />
Line 73:
*** For that matter, Ratatosk{{spoiler|!Emil}}.
{{quote| '''Ratatosk:''' Lumen, OBEY ME!}}
:::You almost expect [[Code Geass (Anime)|the Geass symbol]] to appear [[Hey, It's That Voice!|in his left eye]] as he shouts this.
** Starting from ''Destiny 2'', any [[Invocation]] of any Hi-Ougi by any character will do this. Emotionless characters will intone oaths and spells with great gravitas, more [[Hot-Blooded]] ones let out their [[Screaming Warrior]], and bosses, especially of the final variety, will reach [[Off the Scale]] ham levels declaring their intent to rend time, space, and creation.
*** For example, here's a Hi-Ougi from ''[[Tales of Symphonia Dawn of the New World (Video Game)|Tales of Symphonia Dawn of the New World]]'':
{{quote| '''{{spoiler|Ratatosk Mode }}Emil:''' "'''SEEEEAAAAAAH!'''" * slash slash slash* "'''This is the FINAL STRIKE!'''" * BOOOM!!* "[[Evil Laugh|Hehehahahahaha!]] Darkness devours! '''[[As Long Asas It Sounds Foreign|AIN SOPH AUR!!!]]'''}}
*** On the subject of ''Tales Of Destiny 2'', Barbatos Goetia is likely the hammiest villain in the entire series, thanks to [[Norio Wakamoto|his voice actor]].
** [[Tales of Graces|Malik]].
{{quote| Malik: [[Calling Your Attacks|Tremorous Celestial Sundering Shredding Light of Cyclonic Butchery!]]}}
* In ''[[Fire Emblem Elibe (Video Game)|Blazing Sword]]'', the character Wallace is certainly meant to be this way.
{{quote| '''Wallace''': Look! A giant walks among you!! My defense is impenetrable! COME! BREAK YOUR WEAPONS AGAINST ME! AHAHAHAHAHA!}}
** Made even more obvious in his supports with Vaida, which are ''pure'' [[Ham to Ham Combat]].
** Also, Devdan/Danved in [[Fire Emblem Tellius (Video Game)|Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn]]. "DEVDAN HEARS THE SOUND OF BATTLE!" "Danved fight like 10 men!". Kieran fits this to a degree, but has more elements of a [[Genki Girl]].
*** And I quote, "I am Crimean Royal Knight, Fifth Platoon Captain Kieran! See me and tremble!"
** Skrimir also had a [[Large Ham]] personality, especially at the start of his country's war. This lessened as the game went on, but he had a larger-than-life persona until the end.
Line 89:
{{quote| You think me one to don the cap and bells, and gambol in the street for petty coin? But soft, I see why you might mark me so.}}
* Kyoshiro Senryo of the ''[[Samurai Shodown]]'' series is an ''actual'' [[Large Ham]] ''actor''. However, his overacting fits the kabuki stage perfectly, and he's a huge hit. He even calls his "clone" out on that if he wins in the first game
{{quote| "[[Kill It Withwith Fire|To the fires with you, You Ham!!"]]}}
* Id and Grahf in ''[[Xenogears (Video Game)|Xenogears]]'', as well as Big Joe! and the Captain of the Thames. "I! *pose* AM A MAN! *pose* OF THE SEA! GWAHAHAHAHAHA!"
* Bob Page in the final act of ''[[Deus Ex (Video Game)|Deus Ex]]''. Sure he does a fair bit of begging for his life as your victory becomes more and more likely, but other than that he loves nothing more than to mock you and proclaim himself a god.
** The three other factions in that scene are little better, actually. As you get closer to accomplishing their goals they go on and on about how Right they are for whatever reason.
** The Grand Templar in ''[[Deus Ex: Invisible War (Video Game)|Deus Ex Invisible War]]'' is another ham. The guy's basically [[Adolf Hitler]], so he's justified in having honed his melodramatic recruiting speeches.
* The voice samples the player has to choose from for the PC of ''[[Neverwinter Nights (Video Game)|Neverwinter Nights]]'' are almost all examples of epic ham. It really makes it hard to play a taciturn character when your PC keeps shouting "My STEEL...will STRIKE TRUE!"
** "Attack! Ah sayyyyyyyyyy, attack!"
** "Prepare to become one... with eternity."
Line 102:
** Some of the [[Non-Player Character|NPCs]]' voicesets do this too. Quoth Valen: "Into the flames we leap!"
** A lot of the companions are like this too. ''Especially'' [[Barbarian Hero|Dae]][[Noble Savage|lan]] [[Half-Human Hybrid|Red]]-[[Our Orcs Are Different|Tiger]].
** They actually kept the original voicesets for ''[[Neverwinter Nights 2 (Video Game)|Neverwinter Nights 2]]'', as well as added some new ones. Among these is the "Dramatic" voiceset...
** "Your death has been TOO long DELAYED!"
* King Drake the third from ''[[Makai Kingdom]]'', who comes complete with ridiculously overblown posing, pyrotechnics when he says his name, and a [[Leitmotif]] that sounds like someone's national anthem. Oh, and he's voiced by [[Pigeonholed Voice Actor|Norio Wakamoto]]. His hamminess is the major reason why the other overlords consider him [[Smug Snake|a first-class twat]].
Line 109:
** Likewise Zetta's long time love Salome hams it up big time in the final chapter of the game, shocking even Zetta with her [[Chewing the Scenery|scenery chewing]] [[Love Makes You Crazy|insanity]].
** It is a job requirement for every Demon Overlord in the [[Disgaea/NI Sverse|NI Sverse]] to ham it up as strongly and often as possible.
* Sanger Zonvolt from ''[[Super Robot Wars (Video Game)|Super Robot Wars]]'' becomes one of these in battle. Many characters have [[In the Name of Thethe Moon]] speeches, but his consists of loudly declaring his name, his self-appointed title of "the sword that cleaves evil", a very loud battle cry, and a post-mortem reminder that there's ''nothing'' his BFS can't cut through. This may or may not be preceded by him telling his enemies to "Shut up! And listen!"
* Agnus in ''[[Devil May Cry (Video Game)|Devil May Cry]] 4''. Dante even engages him in what appears to be a battle to see who can be the most ham in one cutscene.
** Dante (or anyone) still has yet to top the infamous: [[Narm/Video Games|"I SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE ONE TO FILL YOUR DARK SOUL WITH LIIIIIII~IIIIIIGHT!"]]. Mundus in the same game. "Dante, I will return... And I will RULE THIS WOOOOOOOOOOORLD!"
** ''"And now...my soul...IS SAYING IT WANTS TO STOP YYYOOUUUUU!!!!"''
Line 136:
** Dracula also hams it up during the final confrontation with Alucard:
{{quote| BEHOLD MY TRUE FORM, '''AND DESPAIR!!!'''}}
** This is even funnier when it appears, word for word, in ''[[I Wanna Be the Guy (Video Game)|I Wanna Be the Guy]]'', with the squeaky-voiced Kid doing Richter's lines.
** ''Portrait of Ruin'' gives us Brauner
{{quote| '''Brauner:''' "THIS IS ART!!"}}
Line 145:
** Leon's [[Narm|Narmful]] vow in ''Lament of Innocence'':
{{quote| '''Leon:''' I'll kill you, AND THE NIGHT!}}
** ''[[Castlevania: Chronicles of Sorrow (Video Game)|Dawn of Sorrow]]'' has these in Japanese, as it was never translated into English, voicewise. The fight {{spoiler|against Soma as Dracula is particularly notable, with his marvellous evil laugh, and the way he calls out the name of the person you are using while throwing his wine glass away. Julius... BERUMONDOOOOOAAAAA!}}
* Minsc from the ''[[Baldur's Gate (Video Game)|Baldurs Gate]]'' series is a [[Boisterous Bruiser]]-flavored ham with his constant shouting of battlecries and enthusiasm.
{{quote| "I grow tired of shouting battlecries when fighting this mage! Boo will ''finish his eyeballs'' ONCE AND FOR ALL so he ''DOES NOT RISE AGAIN!''' ''EVIL! MEET MY SWORD!'' '''SWOOOOOORD! MEEEEEET! EEEEEEEEVIIIIIIIIIL!"}}
** His [[Evil Counterpart]] Korgan is nearly as bad with his over-the-top [[Violent Glaswegian]] acting. Most of the villains get some epic [[Chewing the Scenery]] lines, but most of them, with the possible exception of Irenicus, also know when calmness is called for.
** Just those two? ''[[Baldur's Gate (Video Game)|Baldurs Gate]]'' is a textbook example of a [[World of Ham]]. There isn't a single character who ''isn't'' awesomely over the top and loving it. The closest thing you can find to a character played normally is the [[Fake Russian]] half-elf druid.
* The ''[[Command and Conquer]]'' RTS series of games is legendary for its wonderfully cheesy FMV cutscenes and a healthy dose of [[Deadpan Snarker|Deadpan Snarkerey]], but the ''Red Alert'' games take it to a whole other level of, er... enthusiasm. A few specific examples:
** In-game, you have the [[Psycho Electro|Tesla Troopers]], who toss off [[Bond One-Liner|Bond One-Liners]] such as ''"Burn, baby, burn!!"'' in a cheesy Ahnuld accent.
Line 163:
{{quote| ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v{{=}}uIr68Ncz3Rw Cowboy style.]''}}
** The ''Red Alert 3: Uprising'' expansion is set to feature ''[http://kotaku.com/5139951/cc-red-alert-3-uprising-cast-has-a-certain-flair Malcolm McDowell and Ric Flair]''. EA is trying to create some sort of Ham Singularity (or "Aporkolypse.")
* The ''[[Ace Attorney (Visual Novel)|Ace Attorney]]'' series typically has ''several'' hams in each one (despite having little voice acting). Although a special nod goes to Damon Gant from the first game, and Luke Atmey from the third, both with dramatic gestures, thunder-splitting personalities and dramatic theme music.
** The awesome hamminess of ''"'''{{color|red|OBJECTION!}}'''"'', ''"'''{{color|red|TAKE THAT!}}'''"'', ''"'''{{color|red|HOLD IT!}}'''"'', and ''"'''{{color|red|GOTCHA!}}'''"''. Particularly enjoyable when the lawyers get into shouting matches with each other. ''"'''{{color|red|OBJECTION!}}'''"'' ''"'''{{color|red|OBJECTION!}}'''"'' ''"I SAID OBJECTION!"'' '''"I SAID OBJECTION FIRST!"'''
** Redd White.
Line 169:
** Or Furio Tigre.
** Godot's ability to consume ungodly amount of coffee is a direct result of the sheer density of his hamminess creating a singularity in his metabolism.
** Franziska is almost sane compared to [[World of Ham|the rest of the cast]], but this doesn't stop her from attacking everyone in sight with her [[Whip It Good]], ranting at both Phoenix and Edgeworth for besmirching her family's honor, and using the word "[[You Fool!|fool]]" approximately twenty-seven times per sentence when she gets upset. Edgeworth even snarks about her "flair for the histrionic."
** Apollo Justice specifically ''trains'' his [[No Indoor Voice]] to be as hammy as possible. He mentions it constantly and calls it his ''Chords of Steel''.
*** Lampshaded in the demo version of the game where Apollo loses his voice in the middle of the trial due to overdoing his vocal chords training.
* Both Pey'j and Double H[am] in ''[[Beyond Good and& Evil (Videovideo Gamegame)|Beyond Good and Evil]]'' ratched up the ham to ridiculous levels (Pey'j in the most literal sense possible, since he's a [[Funny Animal|talking pig and all.]]) Pey'j is a [[Boisterous Bruiser]]-ish, Texan-accented ham with a [[Curse of the Ancients|wide variety of bizarre euphemisms]] and quips to his name, plus the always-useful '''''SWEET JESUS!''''' Double H, on the other hand, appears to be an immigrant from a [[So Bad It's Good|deliciously awful]] action movie, complete with gutteral growl, [[Badass Creed|random military wisdom]], and an utterly ridiculous [[Catch Phrase]]. '''''CARLSON AND PEETERS!'''''
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qE-q48pmap8&feature=related Maximillian Roivas] and Pius Augustus both engage in some deliciously hilarious hamming in ''[[Eternal Darkness (Video Game)|Eternal Darkness]]''.
* Some of the enemy commanders from ''[[Supreme Commander (Video Game)|Supreme Commander]]'' serve a large side of ham with their taunts to the player, including Commander Godwyn (Operation Unlock) and Commander Eris (Operation Metal Shark and Operation Defrag). The largest ham award, however, goes to Commander Ariel, of Operation Shining Star. At any given moment, she's just barely restraining a maniacal evil witch laugh.
* Blizzard tends to ham up the voice acting in all their games with delightful results, but the crowning glory is the opera event in ''[[World of Warcraft]]'''s Karazan instance. Merely reading a [http://www.wowwiki.com/Barnes_the_Stage_Manager transcription] of the script doesn't really do justice to the voice actor's [[Brian Blessed]]-inspired performance and the audience going ''"oooooh! ahhhhhh!"''
** Kael'thas definitely qualifies, especially his death emote in the Magisters' Terrace instance:
*** '''''My demise accomplishes nothing! The Master will have you! You will drown in your own blood! The world shall burn! Aaaghh!'''''
*** Kael'thas is ''wonderfully'' hammy. He just never seems to stop talking.
*** He was even hammy back in ''[[War CraftWarcraft]] III''. Facing the undead with naught but STICKS and HARSH LANGUAGE, anyone?
**** And that was nothing compared to the generic Blood Mage's [[Stop Poking Me]] rant about blood.
{{quote| '''Blood Mage:''' My blood cries out for the vengeance of my people's blood, which can only be repaid with at least twice as much blood! Or maybe ''three times as much blood!'' Like if you went to hell, and it was ''full'' of blood, and that blood was on '''[[Incendiary Exponent|fire]]''', and it was raining blood, THEN MAYBE THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH BLOOD! Eh...but probably not.}}
Line 218:
"CHAAAAAAARGE!"<br />
"For the GLORY OF QUEL'THALAS!" }}
** ''[[War CraftWarcraft]] III'' has every male unit, but notably the Paladin. He actually has [[No Indoor Voice|an indoor voice]], but lines like "SMITE with great VENGEANCE!" "In Lightbringer's name, HAVE AT THEE!" and "Is that a sword? ''LUXURY''! Is that a horse? '''SLOTH!''' Is that a helmet? '''''VANITY'''''!".
** The Frozen Halls instances from patch 3.3 all have their hammish bosses, but Scourgelord Tyrannus takes the cake.
{{quote| "Rimefang! Trap them within the tunnel! BURY THEM ALIVE!"<br />
Line 233:
*** Lord Marrowgar.'''BBBBOOOOOONNNNNNEEEEEESSSSSSTTTTTOOOOORRRRRRMMMMMMM!'''<ref>''"Laaaaanguish in damnaaaationnnnn..."''</ref> Funny enough the joke went around that Sindragosa's most powerful ability was her incessant raspy voice.
{{quote| [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v{{=}}mrVPb0Qp0dw&feature{{=}}related Noooow, you shall face their MIGHT COMBIIIINNNED!]}}
** It was the same way back in ''[[War CraftWarcraft]] 2'', as narrator Bill Roper tells us of the Alliance arming itself with ''Dwar''ven '''cannon''' and ''El''ven STEEL to fight the Tides of '''''Darkness'''''.
** Another special mention to Deathwing, who ranks as one of the hammiest, loudest Warcraft characters there is, particularly is the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wq4Y7ztznKc intro] for Cataclysm
{{quote| All will BURN beneath the SHADOW...OF MY WIIINGS!}}
Line 252:
** Contiuning the trend, the new heroics gives us several hammy bosses. The king of it must be the snake boss, High priest Venoxis. His quotes aint much changed since the original, but his VA forces so much ham into it, you hardly believes hes dying when uttering "MYYYY DEATTH... MEAAANS NOOOTHINNGG!". You have to hear it to believe it.
** Not to be outdone by the men, Vanessa Van Cleef takes a page from Kael'thas' book and tries to [[Evil Gloating]] her opponents to death.
** And now...we have the Firelands, aka the Dimension Of Smoked Hams. When ''[[I Shall Taunt You|Frandal]] [[Drunk Onon the Dark Side|Staghelm]]'' is the ''subtle'' one, it makes one wonder if Ragnaros goes out of his way to find minions that [[Chewing the Scenery|remind him]] [[Badass Baritone|of himself]].
** Lord Rhyolith in particular can't seem to decide whether he's a grumpy old man or Optimus Prime, switching between bitter complaints about the small nuisances around him to bombastic, booming threats and proclamations, i.e. "Ooooh! You little beasts!" to "SUCCUMB TO LIVING FLAME!!"
** 4.3 Takes the Ham level and raises it hamazingly high...
Line 261:
*** ...and then [[Scary Black Man|Warmaster Blackhorn]].
{{quote| ''Look's like I'm doing this myself. [[Blood Knight|Good!]]''}}
* In the ''[[Starcraft]]'' universe, it's the ones who ''aren't'' hams that are rare. While the Ghost may get his [[Creepy Monotone]], he can ''keep'' it, because almost everyone else is pure unabridged ham. Third prize: Tassadar's big speech at the beginning of the final mission. Second prize: Terran [[Kill It Withwith Fire|Firebats]]. And the grand prize goes to...[[Drop the Hammer|The Siege Tank]]. Honorary mentions go to the Terran Marine, the Terran Dropship, the Protoss Zealot, the Terran Wraith, both Protoss Archons, the Zerg Overlord, and the Terran Vulture. Some voice actor was evidently having a lot of fun while recording that game.
** The Infested Terrans.
{{quote| ''"Live for the Swarm!"''}}
Line 274:
** While perhaps only a sandwich compared to the honey-glazed goodness of Ansem {{spoiler|/Xehanort}}, Maleficent in the first game also is a bit hammy.
*** A bit? Do you remember "THE TRUE DARKNESS!" or "You think you can defeat ''me?'' '''ME, THE MISTRESS OF ALL EVIL!?"'''
**** Frustrated with her period of [[Villain Decay]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II (Video Game)|Kingdom Hearts II]]'', Maleficent gets even hammier. "A DOMINION FIT TO BE CALLED KINGDOM HEARTS MUST BE MY DOMINION!" "I DON'T TAKE ORDERS FROM YOU!" "THIS CASTLE WILL BE MIIINE!"
*** And then there's Hades who, in the first game, only really yelled once: a restrained "He makes me CRAZY!" But in the second game, he yells, "'''YOU ARE [[Incredibly Lame Pun|FIRED!!]]'''" during his battle with Auron, with little provoking. And then, during the final battle with him:
{{quote| '''Hades''': HOW DARE YOU HAVE A HAPPY ENDING! HOW DARE YOU!}}
Line 280:
{{quote| '''Saïx''': ALL SHALL BE '''LOST''' TO YOU!<br />
'''Saïx''': I WILL LEAVE YOU WITH '''NOTHING!''' }}
** Seems this is endemic with anyone associated to Xehanort as ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep (Video Game)|Birth By Sleep]]'''s [[Big Bad]], Master Xehanort, can give Ansem{{spoiler|/Xehanort's Heartless}} and Xemnas a run for their money. {{spoiler|Natch, because he's the precursor to ''all of them''.}} Helps to be voiced by [[Leonard Nimoy]].
{{quote| '''Master Xehanort''': "'''[[No Indoor Voice|BEHOLD!]]''' These lifeless keys used to be full of ''power.'' United with the hearts of their masters, on this barren soil, Keyblades of light and darkness were ''[[Milking the Giant Cow|locked in combat!]]'' As the great Keyblade War '''RAAAGGED!'''"}}
** [[The Dragon|Vanitas']] helmet seems to act as a ham filter, as he spends most of his time with it on talking in the smug voice of a [[Magnificent Bastard]] who knows there's nothing the heroes can do to stop him. Once it's off, you can tell his voice actor (in both versions) really starts to enjoy himself.
Line 287:
{{quote| '''Sora:''' I never would have made it here without the three of you. But it's my turn now. Let me be your light, and I'll show you the way home!<br />
'''Donald:''' Um, isn't that hamming it up a little? }}
* SHODAN from ''[[System Shock (Video Game)|System Shock]]'' and its sequel (the being illustrated atop this page) does plenty of hamming, especially with her [[Voice of the Legion|secondary voices]]. Let me show you some examples.
** SHODAN (moderately pitched voice): "Fitting handmaidens to my... (deep voice) '''DIVINITY'''!"
** "Welcome to my '''DEATH'''! '''MACHINE!''' interloper!"
Line 299:
** "'''I AM SHODAN!'''"
*** Her echo voices get even hammier. For example, after she says, "I lust for my revenge" in the second game, another one of her voices says, "my '''REVENGE!'''"
* Razputin from ''[[Psychonauts (Video Game)|Psychonauts]]''. He's voiced by [[Pigeonholed Voice Actor|Richard Horvitz]], who almost exclusively plays [[Large Ham|Large Hams]] in small bodies. Raz isn't quite up to the [[Invader Zim (Animation)|Zim]] extreme, but he does get some good ones:
{{quote| '''Raz:''' [[I Can't Use These Things Together|Before I can use this machine]], I need to go to the Camp Store... ''to buy some '''delicious taffy!'''''}}
** Dr. Loboto
Line 307:
** Ginny Westcott as the '''Den Mother'''. Even in a game notable for its [[Large Ham|Large Hams]] her scenery chewing stands out. "''The milk is NOT ready, and YOU are NOT ready for the MILK!''"
*** But Coach Oleander takes the cake.
* Despite not having any voiced dialogue, Rawk Hawk from ''[[Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door (Video Game)|Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door]]'' is ''insanely'' hammy. This is fitting, though--he's a professional fighter, and grandstanding is part of the biz. If you mess with the Hawk, you're gonna get '''''RAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWKED!'''''
** [[Big Bad|Bowser]] too. Especially in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Video Game)|Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', where his [[Attack of the 50 Foot Whatever|size increases]] along with his ham.
{{quote| '''Bowser''': I'M HUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE!}}
* The King of Hyrule in the ''[[The Legend ofLegendof Zelda CDiCDI Games|Legend of Zelda CD-i]]'' games is worth the price of admission alone. "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNpLXo55yfw Mah boi!] This peace is what ''all'' true warriors strive for?" "''Enough!'' My ship sails in the morning. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mHw5g55oC4 ...I wonder what's for dinner?]" [[Big Bad|Ganon]] is also fairly impressive: "''Join'' me, Link, and I will make '''you a face,''' the '''''grrrreatest''''' in Koridai!

Line 317:
** Sorry Link, I can't give credit. Come back when you're a little [[Memetic Mutation|MMMMMMMM]] richer.
* Link is pretty hammy in the CD-i games too.
* For ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' [[Fanon Discontinuity|games that actually exist]], ''[[The Legend of Zelda: theThe Wind Waker (Video Game)|The Wind Waker]]'''s Ganondorf: YOUR GODS DESTROYED YOU!!
** Ganondorf's pretty good at this all around.

** As anyny fans of [[Nintendo Capri Sun]] will remember:
{{quote| CURSE YOU, CAPRISUUUUUUUUUUUUN!!!!!}}
** Ganondorf's [[Expy]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks (Video Game)|Spirit Tracks]]'', Malladus, might be a pretty extreme example: He gets barely three lines in the whole game, but each of them is so incredibly hammy, Ganondorf himself would probably back off:
{{quote|"'''RELEASE ME!!!'''"|"This body... is rejecting my spirit... I'm... slipping from it... ... I can't hold on for long... ''but the world will crumble in the time I have left!''"}}
** And what about [[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (Video Game)|Ghirahim]]? "FURIOUS!" "''OUTRAGED!''" "'''''SICK WITH ANGER!'''''"
* ''[[Sinistar]]''. He hungers! '''RUN, COWARD! RUN, RUN, RUN, RUN!'''
* Every iteration of ''[[Warhammer 40000 (Tabletop Game)|Warhammer 40000]]: [[Dawn of War (Video Game)|Dawn of War]]'' has (at least!) one large ham, but ''everyone'' involved had to take a step back to let Brother-Captain Indrick Boreale from ''Soulstorm'' pass...
** Every single Chaos Lord ([[The Quiet One|except for Eliphas the Inheritor]]) is frothing at the mouth during all their scenes. [http://1d4chan.org/images/3/3c/Chaoslordz.jpg This image probably says it best]

Line 358:
** It's safe to say that any and all high-ranking Imperium forces (marines, generals, psykers, force commanders etc) in both games have at least one magnificently hammy line.
* [[Sam Witwer]]'s (!) voicing of Emperor Palpatine in ''[[The Force Unleashed]]'' is almost as hammy as the original.
* Albedo from ''[[Xenosaga (Video Game)|Xenosaga]]'' definitely fits this trope
** His "AHHHH, YEEEESSS! FEED ME YOUR HOSTILITY, PIERCE ME WITH YOUR HATRED!!" was certainly full of [[Narm]].
*** [[Crispin Freeman]] is wonderful.
Line 367:
** His English voice: ''"DROWN IN THE CESSPOOL OF '''DARKNESS!!!''' DISAPPEAR, YOU CUR!"''
** Cervantes also, especially in the English version
** Also, Yoshimitsu. In Japanese, because '''[[Norio Wakamoto|NORIO WAKAMOTO]]''' voices him. In English, because he speaks in ''stereotypically'' hammy over-the-top [[Ye Olde Butcherede Englishe|Shakespearean English]].
** From the trailer of ''Soul Caliber V'', [[Assassin's Creed (Video Game)|Ezio]] roars, ''"I TRIED TO WARN YOU!"'' complete with mashing his fists together.
* It's hard to say which one is the larger ham in ''[[Halo (Video Gameseries)|Halo]]'': the High Prophet of Truth or Gravemind.
** ''"You are, all of you, vermin. Cowering in the dirt, thinking... what? That you might escape the coming fire? Your world will burn until its surface is but glass!"''
** ''"Child of my enemy, why have you come? I offer no forgiveness for father's sins cast to his son."''
Line 381:
** [[Osu Tatakae Ouendan|OUEN!]] ''DAI-SEI-KOUUUUUUUU!''
** It helps that the leader of the EBA is Ham Incarnate. "Agents are... GO!" It can't be a coincidence that his name is [[The Khan|Commander Khan]].
* [[Sly Cooper (Video Game)|Sly Cooper]]
** THE MURRAY.
** Dimitri. Every line much like THE MURRAY is a huge ass slice of ham.
* [[Monkey Island (Video Gameseries)|Monkey Island]]
** The other Murray as well.
* ''[[Psi -Ops: theThe Mindgate Conspiracy (Video Game)|Psi Ops the Mindgate Conspiracy]]'', in the case of every single villain in the game, variously falling under the heading of [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]], [[Crowning Moment of Funny]], [[Nightmare Fuel]], or just plain [[Narm]].
** [[Demonic Possession|Nicholas Wrightson]] and [[Mind Over Matter|Edgar Barret]], particularly in their boss battle scenes: "THEY COME FROM ''BEYOOOOND!''" "RUN LIKE A '''BITCH!'''"
* Several of the [[Limit Break|Purify Weird Soul]] moves in ''[[Valkyrie Profile]]'' are an excuse to sacrifice an enemy to the altar of ham. Some people even build their party specifically for maximum ham (it helps that a party of Lenneth, Aelia, Jayle, and Shiho is both fairly effective and extremely hammy).

'''Erazor:''' THE WORLD IS MINE! I cannot be denied by that filthy rat! WHHHHHHYYYYYYY??!? }}
** Besides the [[Large Ham/Western Animation|Western Animation]] example, Dr. Robotnik/Eggman in the games with voice acting.

* [[Final Fantasy I (Video Game)|No one leaves out my quote!! TVTROPES EDITORS?? You impertinent fools. I, Garland, will knock you all down!!]]
* ''[[Final Fantasy IV (Video Game)|Final Fantasy IV]]'', in the DS remake. Every character gets to ham it up at one point or another, but Cid in particular near eats the scenery whole.
* ''[[Final Fantasy V (Video Game)|Final Fantasy V]]'', one of the sillier Final Fantasies, has Exdeath, the biggest ham this side of the '''VOID!''' Just as an example, here's one of his hammier lines. Oh, and for bonus points, he actually says it ''twice'' over the course of the game.
{{quote| '''Exdeath''': Time for your viscera to see the light of ''day!'' Now die!}}
** Anything his lackey, Gilgamesh, says. ''Anything''. It is ''not'' limited to this game either, he's become a [[Breakout Character]] spanning multiple games, and whenever he appears in any of them, [[Incoming Ham]] can certainly be expected. Gilgamesh ''IS'' ham. Here's some of his quotes from across the series:
Line 408:
"QUAKE mortals, you face the blade of legends!"<br />
"[[Kiai|Hya, ha, HYAAAH!]] TASTE MY WRATH! }}
* ''[[Final Fantasy VI (Video Game)|Final Fantasy VI]]''. Kefka isn't shy about expressing his HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE for others.
** "YOU SOUND LIKE CHAPTERS FROM A SELF-HELP BOOKLET!"
* Cid in ''[[Final Fantasy X (Video Game)|Final Fantasy X]]'' has just two kinds of speaking. Shouting and yelling.
** Likewise, the Cid from ''[[Final Fantasy VII (Video Game)|Final Fantasy VII]]'' has two main modes of speaking: Shouting and [[Cluster F-Bomb|Swearing]].
{{quote| "Shut up! Sit your ass down in that chair and drink your goddamn TEA!!"}}
** Barret and a few of Shin Ra's higher-up employees qualify.
* Dr. Cid from ''[[Final Fantasy XII (Video Game)|Final Fantasy XII]]'' doesn't get a lot of screentime. And what few scenes he does get, he devours with great enthusiasm.
{{quote| "A TRIAL for Ashelia B'Nargin Dalmasca!"<br />
"Let us use the stone! FINISH THIS VENAT!"<br />
"Come! Ffamran! REVEL IN THE GLORY OF MY TRIUMPH!" }}
* And holy crap, ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy (Video Game)|Dissidia Final Fantasy]]'' takes the ''hammiest'' villains ([[Token Evil Teammate|and Shantotto]]) from across every numbered Final Fantasy game at the time. Sure, some of them are subdued, like [[Final Fantasy VII (Video Game)|Sephiroth]] and [[Final Fantasy VIII (Video Game)|Ultimecia]] (the latter being strange, as she was a textbook Ham in her actual game), but the others? There's varying levels of hamminess, but the best of them are screaming every attack. But in the interest of space, let's just go with a sampling tray of the different flavors of ham, taken from their [[Limit Break|EX-Bursts]].
{{quote| '''[[Final Fantasy I (Video Game)|Garland]]''': "Know your LIMIT! CAN YOU '''STAND THIS?!''' [[Pitiful Worms|Miserable]] '''[[Pitiful Worms|INSECT!]]'''<br />
'''[[Final Fantasy II (Video Game)|The Emperor]]''': "Suffer! All is MINE to COMMAND! [[Evil Laugh|*low chuckle*]] Lowly ''worm!''"<br />
'''[[Final Fantasy III (Video Game)|Cloud of Darkness]]''': "True ''darkness!'' Unleash the SHADOWS! [[Evil Laugh|Hmmhmmhaahahaha!]]"<br />
'''[[Final Fantasy IV (Video Game)|Golbez]]''': "''Guide'', my inner shadow. Light and dark above... '''TRANSCEND THE STARS!'''"<br />
'''[[Final Fantasy V (Video Game)|Exdeath]]''': "To the silent '''BEYOND!!''' Embrace the ''stillness'' of eternity..."<br />
'''[[Final Fantasy VI (Video Game)|Kefka]]''': "''Be careful!'' Watch '''this'''! ... It's '''FILLING ME UP!'''" *[[Pillar of Light|kaboom]]* "That was ''titillating!''"<br />
'''[[Final Fantasy VII (Video Game)|Sephiroth]]''': "I bring you despair...''Ruination to ALL!''"<br />
'''[[Final Fantasy VIII (Video Game)|Ultimecia]]''': "''[[Time Master|Time!]]'' [[Time Stands Still|Playtime is]] ''[[Time Stands Still|over]]''! Eternal slumber..."<br />
'''[[Final Fantasy IX (Video Game)|Kuja]]''': "Curtain rise!" *boom boom boom boom* "Here comes the FINALE!"<br />
'''[[Final Fantasy X (Video Game)|Jecht]]''': "You are just out of luck! C'mon c'mon ''c'mon'' '''c'mon!''' This is ''my'' show!" "One more!" '''"OH YEEEEEAAAAAH!"'''<br />
'''[[Final Fantasy XI (Video Game)|Shantotto]]''': "NOW I'M '''MAD!!''' [[Noblewoman's Laugh|Oooohohohohoho!]] I'm driven to DESTROY!"<br />
'''[[Final Fantasy XII (Video Game)|Gabranth]]''': "By my SWORD! KNOW THIS '''PAIN!''' [[Kiai|Hmph hm hah!]] ''Take your last breath.'' Surrender now to '''OBLIVION!!'''" }}
** And the [[Big Bad]] Chaos ''outhams them all''. But then, he's voiced by [[Norio Wakamoto]] in the Japanese version and [[Keith David]] in English--could ''anyone'' match that level of ham?
{{quote| "KNOW DESPAIR! ''Hollow beings!''"<br />
Line 446:
"''Skyhigh!'' CRUMBLE TO DUST!"<br />
"FELL FOR IT!" }}
** Seems to be a general thing for the ''[[Final Fantasy IV (Video Game)|Final Fantasy IV]]'' characters to be especially hammy in battle.
{{quote| '''Cecil''': "Beneath the light... '''COMES JUDGEMENT!'''"<br />
'''Kain''': "'''CROSS''' the heavens! '''BOW DOWN!'''"<br />
Line 457:
* ''Every single character'' in ''[[God Hand]]''. Especially Gene, who has a smartass wisecrack for every situation and strikes goofy poses after most of his stronger moves. If you actually happen to connect with the impossibly slow yet extremely useful Yes Man Kablam move, he will look around and enjoy being cheered on by an invisible crowd.
{{quote| Elvis: I'm gettin' ''[[Chewing the Scenery|hungry]]'', ''cabrone''!!}}
* Being played by ''the'' [[Gary Oldman]], it's no surprise that Sergeant Reznov from ''[[Call of Duty (Video Game)|Call of Duty]]: World At War'' sounds like this.
** And Keifer Sutherland in the American army levels, getting plenty of chances to do his angry [[24 (TV)|Jack Bauer]] voice. "Outstanding, men! '''OUT-FUCKING-STANDING'''!"
* ''[[Call of Duty: Black Ops (Video Game)|Call of Duty Black Ops]]'' "MY NAME IS VICTOR REZNOV, AND I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE!
* Par for the course for ''[[Star Fox (Video Gameseries)|Star Fox]]'' villains. Played with in the character of Andrew Oikonny in ''Assault'', who was obviously a cheesy wannabe villain who was never meant to be taken seriously, and thus plays it ''way'' over the top.
** Several characters from ''[[Star Fox Adventures (Video Game)|Star Fox Adventures]]'', especially the [[No Indoor Voice|Warp Stone]].
* The lack of ''[[Star Fox 64 (Video Game)|Star Fox 64]]'' saddens me, allow me to enlighten this page:
** "WHOOO ARE YOOOOOU!!!"
** "UNCLE AAIIINDROOOOOOOSSSS!"
Line 497:
*** Let's face it - every. Single. Line. That comes from Wesker's mouth, comes out being [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-xOLEQT_so&feature=related incredibly hammy].
**** No wonder Chris invokes [[Shut UP, Hannibal]]. "I've had enough of your bullshit!" Even though he himself is a bit of a ham here. Albiet, far less of one.
** Leon from ''[[Resident Evil 4 (Video Game)|Resident Evil 4]]'' is a walking Large Ham/ [[Deadpan Snarker]]. As soon as minor supporting characters start to die, he switches to ham mode. "MIIIIIIIIIIIIIKE! <s>LUUUUUUUUUIS</s>LEEEWWWIIISSS!" Then, if a friend of yours were to die, you'd scream like that too.
** The twins from ''Code: Veronica'' much?
*** "You want it? ''You are '''not''' worthy of its '''power!'''''" (She's less hammy in ''[[Resident Evil: theThe Darkside Chronicles (Video Game)|Darkside Chronicles]]'', though)
** Wesker's [[Foil]], Sergei Vladimir is every bit as hammy, being a ridiculously over the top Russian, who speaks every line in a deep booming voice, and looks as though he's just walked out of a 1950s propaganda movie.
*** "''Do'' try to keep me amused, and do ''not'' disappoint me by ''dying'' too soon. I ''do'' want to enjoy this... ''[[Giggling Villain|Eheheheh~]]''"
* "EVERYTHING EVERYTHING EVERYTHING! DAMN IT ALLLL!!!" Edge Maverick, ''[[Star Ocean the Last Hope (Video Game)|Star Ocean the Last Hope]]''. True, he did just {{spoiler|accidentally cause the blowing up an alternate dimension's Earth, killing billions of people}}, but the way the scene played out was just hilarious. His emotions in general are acted oddly.
* The cast of ''[[Team Fortress 2 (Video Game)|Team Fortress 2]]'', in one way or another. The Heavy, Soldier, and Demoman are the biggest ones, but they ''all'' have their moments. (The Sniper and Spy are the most reserved, but appropriately hammy moments can mostly be found in some of their domination/revenge lines.)
** The fan made mod known as Versus Saxton Hale Mode pits a team of players versus Mann Co.'s CEO, [[Testosterone Poisoning]] incarnate [[Memetic Badass]] Saxton Hale. The latest version of the mod now includes voice responses for Saxton Hale, and true to form they are [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/VS_Saxton_Hale_Mode/Saxton_responses full of delicious ham.]
** " DON'T RUN! IT'S JUST [[Lampshade Hanging|HAM!]]"
Line 512:
** While fairly mild compared to Doctor Nefarious, Lord Vorselon in ''[[Ratchet and Clank Future A Crack In Time|A Crack in Time]]'' has his moments as well.
** Captain Quark's dialogue is made to be done this way. Whenever he isn't being either clueless or cowardly, he's being overly dramatic.
* Father Grigori from ''[[Half-Life 2 (Video Game)|Half-Life 2]]''. The last survivor of [[Zombie Apocalypse|Ravenholm]], he is a [[Church Militant|psychotic priest with a shotgun]]. Half his lines are shouted from rooftops, followed by an unnervingly [[Evil Laugh]]. He appears in only one chapter, yet is one of the most memorable things about the game.
* Natla in ''[[Tomb Raider (Videovideo Gamegame)|Tomb Raider]]: Anniversary'' and {{spoiler|''Underworld''}}.
* [[City of Heroes (Video Game)|I AM NICTUS!]]
** For the record, the above is rendered purely through text, font, and [[Going Through the Motions]].
* ''[[Wild Arms 4 (Video Game)|Wild Arms 4]]''. [[Knight Templar|Lambda]] is particularly hammy, breaking into [[Manly Tears]] while monologing about Filgaia's future on more then one occasion.
* [[Insistent Terminology|Crasher Wake]], the [[Professional Wrestling|pro wrestler]]-themed Gym Leader of Pastoria City in ''[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl (Video Game)|Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]]'' games.
** "[[Pokémon Black and White (Video Game)|I'm absolutely perfect.]] [[I Am the Noun|I AM PERFECTION!]]"
* [[Space Channel 5|"My name is..."]] '''''[[Space Channel 5|"JAGUAAAAAR!"]]''''' [[Space Channel 5|"I am the voice of]] ''[[Space Channel 5|truth!"]]''
* From Big Bang Beat: "'''SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODO'''" "'''DAIGO EYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYE'''"
* Though the villains in the first ''[[First Encounter Assault Recon (Video Game)|F.E.A.R.]]'' game are fairly low-key, ''Project Origin'' has Colonel Richard Vanek, who is physically incapable of ''not'' [[No Indoor Voice|screaming at everyone around him]], even when he's talking quietly. Just ''look'' at some of his lines, and remember ''every single one of them'' is being screamed at the top of his lungs by an extremely irate general officer:
{{quote| '''"I DON'T CARE IF ITS KING TUT! YOU FUCKING KILL THEM!"'''<br />
'''"ANY AND ALL FUCK-UPS, GET BACK TO ADMIN! WE NEED REINFORCEMENTS!"'''<br />
Line 531:
* "[[Fatal Fury|Are you ok?]] '''[[Limit Break|BUSTAAAAAAAAH WOOOOOOOLF!]]'''"
** "'''[[Street Fighter|OYAJIIIIIII!]]'''"
** Everyone is hammy in ''[[Street Fighter IV (Video Game)|Street Fighter IV]]''. I don't know Japanese, but they sound just as hammy there as they do in English.
*** "THE POWER OF NOTHINGNESS!"
* ''Every'' Glukkon in [[Oddworld (Video Game)|Oddworld]].
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uF0sgtcZwDY "Disengage Operation Lightning Bolt!"]
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfYHgQ225Y8 "PUUUUUMP IT UP!"]
** Director Phleg, with his numerous mood swings and outbursts, is probably the definition of Glukkon hamminess.
*** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRuWCQF4FPM&feature=related "IT AINT MY FAULT! ITS DAT ABE GUY! FIRST RUPTURE FAAAMS, NOW NECRUM MIIINES, THERE AINT NO BONES ANYWUH! NO BONES, NO BROOOO! I AM TOTALLY SCROOOOOOOOOOOOED! MY CAREER IS OOOVER! AND ITS ALL DAT BLUE BASTARDS FAULT!!"]
* Alex Mercer channels several hundred pounds of [[I'm a Humanitarian|long pork]] during one mission in ''[[Prototype (Videovideo Gamegame)|Prototype]]''. Must have eaten '''[[Brian Blessed|BRIAN BLESSED]]''' at some point.
** NOTHING CAN YOU PROTECT YOU FROM ME! NOT MEN! NOT WEAPONS! NOT ARMOR!
** LIKE THAT'S GONNA MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE!
Line 561:
"OH MY GOD!!" <br />
[[Big No|"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!"]] }}
* Super Macho Man from ''[[Punch Out (Video Game)|Punch Out]]'' (Wii): "[[Punch Out (Video Game)|Are you READY? Cause I'm gonna put on a SHOW!]]" ([[Pec Flex|Flexes chest]] at the camera and winks, then [[Squick|turns round and flexes ass.]])
* The narrators of two ''[[Age of Empires II (Video Game)|Age of Empires II]]'' campaigns, William Wallace ("Build ten more... woooooaaaaad rrrraiderrrs!") and Genghis Khan ("The great Khan. GENGHIS KHAN!").
** One of the cheat units in ''[[Age of Empires III (Video Game)|Age of Empires III]]'', George Crushington, [[Attack of the 50 Foot Whatever|a giant hopping bust of George Washington]] who headbutts his enemies with comical sound effects and shoots fire from his eyes, delivers this line to players: "CHECK IN YOUR WALLET. THAT'S ME ON THE DOLLAR BILL."
* Fawful from [[Mario and Luigi (Video Game)|Mario & Luigi]], although mainly ''[[Mario and Luigi Bowsers Inside Story (Video Game)|Bowser's Inside Story]]''. He's already got the over the top opinion of himself, but a villain that talks in [[Zero Wing]] style Engrish, treats everything like a show and shouts his lines in bold text? [[Large Ham]] indeed.
** And Bowser himself would like to remind you that he's '''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Video Game)|HUUUUUUUUUUUGE]]'''!
* When you manage to out-Ham the player character, and the player character is voiced by [[Bruce Campbell]], you know you've arrived. So it goes with the ''delightfully'' batshit Baron Hajod from ''[[Tachyon the Fringe (Video Game)|Tachyon the Fringe]]''. '''SLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVVVVESSSS!!!''' Culminates in the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htRArli-9UE mission] where he tries to [[Refuge in Audacity|steal the Sistine Chapel ceiling]].
{{quote| ''I will not turn over this pretty ceiling, it is mine now! '''MINE MINE MINE! You will die for such a flagrant intrusion!'''}}
* Harbinger from ''[[Mass Effect 2 (Video Game)|Mass Effect 2]]''. Guy loves the sound of his own voice. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6f9PKIEAKX0
** '''ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL.''' , '''WE ARE HARBINGER.''' and a multitude of other synthetic(but no less porcine) declarations will fill your eardrums whenever you fight the Collectors.
** The bone-rattling ham hocks of Sovereign.
Line 587:
*** Prefer to get job done and go home, personally.
** [[Obstructive Bureaucrat|Ambassador Udina]] has elements of this in the first Mass Effect, with all his bravado and rolled r's.
* Atlas ("Goddam [[Funetik Aksent|Sploicers]]!") from ''[[Bioshock (Video Game)|Bioshock]]'' is a [[Oireland|Guinness-infused]] Ham of impressive proportions. {{spoiler|He's not much less hammy as Fontaine, either, though he does get to switch up the accent.}}
** And what about Andrew Ryan's hammy lines near the end of {{spoiler|Hephaestus}}?
{{quote| AND A TIIIME, TO DESTROOOOOOYY!!!<br />
You can taste it, can't you? '''ANDREW RYAN!''' }}
** Sander Cohen beats both men in terms of ham. And that's not counting the moments when his temper flares up.
** Saltonstall spends the entire time in the ''[[Bio Shock Infinite (Video Game)|Bio Shock Infinite]]'' trailer being hammy.
{{quote| '''What are you? WHAT AAAARRRREEEE YOUUUUUUU!! CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARLEEEEEESSS! ATTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNDD!!!'''}}
** Uh, ''Doctor Steinman'', anybody?
{{quote| "What's this, Goddess? ...An intruder! He is ugly! UGLY! '''UGLY!''' '''UUUUUGGGGGGGLLLLLYYYYYY!!!'''"}}
* ''[[Eternal Sonata (Video Game)|Eternal Sonata]]'' contains ham, ham, and more ham. Everyone gets involved, including the kids. The overacting fits well with the game's overall surrealism.
** Perhaps the most jarring is when Falsetto returns to the group.
* '''[[Fallout (Video Game)|THREEEEEE DAAAAAAWWWWWWGG!! HELLOOOO, CAPITAL WASTELAND!! HOW'S EVERYONE DOIN?]]'''
* The Dark Savant in ''[[Wizardry (Video Game)|Wizardry]] 8''. One wonders how he can chew the scenery through that humungous helmet.
* Steven the grocery manager from ''[[Dead Rising (Video Game)|Dead Rising]]''. [[Memetic Mutation|THIS IS MY STORE!!!]] At one point he hams it up so loudly that the [[No Indoor Voice|screen rattles.]]
* ''[[Viewtiful Joe]]'' had quite a few characters, but one in particular stands out amo-
** '''DAAAAAAAVIDSON IS IN THE HOUUUUUUSE! HULK DAVIDSON IS BOOOORN TO BE WIIIIIILLLLD!'''
* ''[[Dragon Age (Video Game)|Dragon Age Origins']]'' Loghain Mac Tir. STAND WITH HIM AND WE SHALL DEFEAT EVEN THE BLIGHT ITSELF!!!
** Loghain is a lightweight compared to Uldred from the Circle of Magi. Ham oozes from his every sentence.
{{quote| "Ah ... look what we have here. An intruder. I bid you welcome. Care to join in our … revels?"<br />
Line 614:
** While still possessed by a demon, Connor shows off a bit of ham.
{{quote| "Ever since you sent the knights away, you do nothing but deprive me of my fun! Frankly, it's getting dull. I crave EXCITEMENT! And ACTION!"}}
* ''[[Dragon Age II (Video Game)|Dragon Age II]]'' had a lot of [[Evil Is Hammy]], most of its [[Large Ham]] characters are bad guys.
** Flemeth is a textbook [[One-Scene Wonder]], she has precisely two scenes in the entirety of ''[[Dragon Age II]]'' but both are filled with classic cryptic fantasy advice delivered in a wonderfully [[Chewing the Scenery|scenery-chewing]] sort of way.
** Knight-Commander Merideth, especially during her [[Villainous Breakdown]] at the end.
Line 621:
** The Black Emporium DLC gives you the titular shop's proprietor, Xenon the Antiquarian, who combines this trope with speaking like [[William Shatner]].
{{quote| "Don't... '''MAN'''-handle the uuuurrrchin! He's not... for sale... '''FIND YOUR OWN!'''"}}
* [[The Sims (Video Game)|Sims]] may not have [[Punctuated for Emphasis|dramatic pronunciations]], but they are far more hammy than the average human being they're supposed to simulate. This is an aspect of gameplay - it's a lot easier to know that a Sim is hungry or angry when they dramatically moan and rub their belly or shake their fists while screaming.
* [[Super Mario Bros (Franchise)./Wario and Company/Characters|Wario's]] hammiest portrayal has probably got to be in ''[[Wario World (Video Game)|Wario World]]''. Just hearing his loud laugh or his many quotes throughout the game will make you want to hug Charles Martinet for giving him such a huge and admirable ego!

* ''[[Jade Empire (Video Game)|Jade Empire]]'' has a surprisingly understated - for a Bioware game - [[Big Bad]], but Emperor Sun Hai loves his pork, as does the requisite [[Sociopathic Hero]], Black Whirlwind.
* ''[[Sacrifice]]'' is a [[World of Ham]]. The gods are extremely hammy. So are the wizards. So are the units. Sadly, the main narrator is not.
* [[Myst (Video Gameseries)|"BRING ME! BLUE PAGES!"]]
** Achenar gets even hammier if you free him.
* [[Left 4 Dead (Video Game)|Church Guy]] seems to be enjoying himself more than can possibly be healthy. DING DONG, DING DONG!

* The [[Enemy Within|Shadow bosses]] of ''[[Persona 4 (Video Game)|Persona 4]]'' are, as a general rule, ''far'' hammier than the people they're a Shadow of. For example, [[Mad Scientist|Shadow Naoto]]. ''"Why '''DELUDE''' yourself?! '''[[Punctuated for Emphasis|I AM YOU!]]'''"''

** This is in games with ''no voice acting''.
* The witch Adria from ''[[Diablo (Video Gameseries)|Diablo]]'' has no body language, but all her lines are chock full of portentous pseudo-wisdom, and delivered in a thunderous, over-dramatic voice.
** ''Everybody'' in Diablo is that way. Diablo 2 toned it down significantly for the players and friendly NPCs, but the bosses are just as dramatic as ever.
* '''[[The World Ends With You (Video Game)|"WELCOME TO MY KITCHEN!"]]'''
** "Drown in the sea of imaginary numbers!"
* Joe Chin from ''[[Parappa the Rapper]]''. "'''''Hi!'''''"
* High Max from ''[[Mega Man X (Video Game)|Mega Man X6]]''. Though he got only a few lines of dialogue and even they are not voiced, his amazing [[Boss Banter]] by [[Norio Wakamoto]] makes him more than just a filler character he is.

* Caterina Sforza from ''[[Assassin's Creed II (Video Game)|Assassin's Creed II]]'', especially during [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2R4PoofP4bw this scene] (skip to 7:35 for the good stuff). [[Cut His Heart Out Withwith a Spoon]] doesn't ''begin'' to cover it. And the fact that it's [[Truth in Television]] only makes it ''better''!
** ''Every civilian'' is a ham, especially after seeing you kill a guard or stealing money from a corpse.
* Henry Stauf of ''[[The Seventh Guest]]'' and ''The Eleventh Hour''. [[Evil Is Hammy]] indeed.
* '''[[Meat Boy (Video Game)|WAAARP ZOOOOOOOOOOONE!]]'''
* Almost every line from almost every character in ''[[X-Men Next Dimension]]''.
* No mention of [[Magneto]], [[X-Men (Videovideo Gamegame)|Master of Magnet]]? '''X-MEN, [[Prepare to Die|WELCOME...]]''' '''''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdAmkx8eAos TO DIE!!!]'''''
** Fusing the above two, Magneto in ''[[X-Men Next Dimension]]''. "[[Kneel Before Zod|KNEEEELLLL...BEFORE ME]]! LET NONE STAND BEFORE MY MIGHT!" Really, it's astounding how much ham he pumps out given that he's ''Jewish''.
* "[[Ape Escape (Video Game)|INCOMPLETE??? It's a WONDERFUL INVENTION!!!]]"
** "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNQfEmykuoo&feature=related NO LONGER will humans be the dominant species! I'M GOING TO CONQUER THE WORLD!!! DON'T try and stop me I'm going to RELENTLESSLY attack WHOMEVER TRIES TO GET IN MY WAY!!!]"
*** "The Buzz you see here isn't the same old Buzz anymore. [[Punctuated for Emphasis|HE HAS BEEN REBORN!!!]]."
Line 668:
* The opening narrator for [[Jericho]] as he describes how the world hangs in the balance over the forces of darkness. ''Every'' word positively '''''oozes''''' with theatricality and '''OVERBLOWN DRAMA!''' Before long he starts to sound more like a fire and brimstone preacher than a video game narrator.
{{quote| And just remember: If the world is still here tomorrow, ''now you know why.''}}
* Half the fun of ''[[Air ForceAirforce Delta]] Strike'', is a script which runneth over with ham, much of it coming from in-mission [[Enemy Chatter]]. Of particular note are the Stand By missions after you down the random enemy guest star pilots. Who knew there were so many pilots with over-the-top redneck accents and [[No Indoor Voice]]?
{{quote| "WHERE'S YER DRIVE, GAW-DAMMIT?!"}}
* The various [[Large Ham Announcer|announcers]] of the ''[[Unreal Tournament (Video Game)|Unreal Tournament]]'' series. The first one is so popular that his voice was ported to other games, so much that some people think he is originally from ''[[Counter-Strike (Video Game)|Counter-Strike]]''.
{{quote| '''''[[Boom! Headshot!|HEADSHOT!]]'''''}}
* '''[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (Video Game)|"YOU DARE TO DISTORT SPACE? WITHOUT MY PERMISSION!?"]]'''
* In Necroquest Deluxe the dialogue for the villain seems perfectly normal villain fare but the voice actor accidentally went over the top and came out sounding like a large ham. you can see the trailer on youtube.
* [[Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare]]: '''"I'M HERBERT MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON"'''
* ''[[Star Control]]'' features the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjJOu-VyDY8 Black] and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ag50ct3EBxQ Green] Ur-Quan, brother races that both developed intense, galaxy-conquering ham.
* In ''[[Night Trap]]'', the guy playing Lt. Simms is deadly serious and is not above disconnecting your controller if you screw up or don't start the game fast enough.
** Mr. Martin ("THE WALL TRAP! AAAAAAAAAAAH!").
* In ''[[Star Ocean Till the End of Time (Video Game)|Star Ocean Till the End of Time]]'', Luther gets pretty hammy.
** RIGHTEOUSNESS SHALL PREVAIL!!
** The Time Gate on Styx is exceptionally hammy. "REEEESIIIIGN THYSELVES! REEESIIIGN THYSELVES!"
Line 685:
* [[Mortal Kombat|Shao Kahn, just....Shao Kahn.]]
** Shang has a few moments as do Cage and the other kombatants, but Shao is easily the biggest ham in the series.
* Several people from ''[[Baten Kaitos (Video Game)|Baten Kaitos]] Origins''. [[Humanoid Abomination|Wiseman]], Baelheit, and [[Voice of the Legion|Guillo]], just to name a few.
** Milly, at least when she's [[Blood Knight|in battle]].
** [[Smug Snake|Shanath]]. Hilariously enough, he sounds uncannily like [[The Trapped Trilogy|Dan McNeely]], which makes him a little hard to take seriously.
Line 691:
** Gibari, in every incarnation.
** After the [[Wham! Episode]] in the first game: {{spoiler|[[With Great Power Comes Great Insanity|LOOK AT MY]] [[Power Gives You Wings|BEEEAAUUUUTIFUUUL WIIINGS!!!]] [[Narm|I AM COMPLEEEETE!!]]}}
* [[Skylanders: SpyrosSpyro's Adventure|Kaos]] is this.
{{quote| I SUMMON the DEADLY [[Everything's Even Worse Withwith Sharks|SHARK BATH OF DOOOOOOMSHARKS!!!]]}}
** And later in the boss fight...
{{quote| I SUMMON the even DEADLIER SHARK BATH OF DOOOOOOMSHARKS!!!}}
* In the civilization stage of ''[[Spore (Video Game)|Spore]]'', one mode of conquest is through holy ham.
* ''[[Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (Video Game)|Marvel vs. Capcom 3]]'' has Thor's hammy speech which the player can activate at will mid fight.
{{quote| '''HEED MY WORDS EVIL DOERS! IF THOU WISHETH TO CHALLENGE THE ODIN SON, THOU SHALT FEEL THE WRATH OF MIGHTY MJÖLLNIR! NEVER SHALL THE GOD OF THUNDER RELENT!'''}}
* ''[[Freedom Force]]'' and its sequel: every single superhero AND villain can fall under this trope.
Line 702:
{{quote| '''[[Mugging the Monster|Random thug]]:''' Say hello to ''[[Batter Up|mister bat!]]''}}
* In ''[[Dune II]]'''s remake ''Dune 2000'', the FMV cutscenes feature fair amounts of ham, the largest of them being the Atreides mentat. Other characters get their fair share as well.
* Shamir Shamazel can be this in the voiced version of ''[[King's Quest VI Heir Today Gone Tomorrow (Video Game)|King's Quest VI Heir Today Gone Tomorrow]]''. Some of his hamminess in a few scenes (and disguises) has been taken to ridiculous new levels.
* As usual, [[The Joker]] is all about ham in ''[[Batman: Arkham Asylum (Video Game)|Arkham Asylum]]'' and ''[[Batman: Arkham City (Video Game)|Arkham City]]''. Considering he's voiced by [[Mark Hamill]], who did him in the cartoons and who was also [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Ozai]], it's some of the most delicious hams in the business.
* ''[[Asura's Wrath]]'' is practically FULL of this considering it's from the [[Cyber Connect 2|guys behind]] [[.hack GU Games|.hack//G.U. Games]] and can be summed up as Sci-Fi ''[[God of War (Video Gameseries)|God of War]]'' with a Hindu theme, this isn't a surprise. Asura's not even the only ham in the cast here!
** Asura himself is just a barrel of pent up [[Unstoppable Rage]] who doesn't seem to have the concept of an [[No Indoor Voice|indoor voice down pat]] who will [[Badass|RUIN]] [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge|your day]] [[Papa Wolf|if you touch his daughter Mithra.]]
** Sergei is a beauty obsessed sociopath voiced by [[Steve Blum]] that's one of the more vicious of the seven deities even before they all betray Asura.
** Augus, Asura's former mentor, is a [[Dirty Old Man|skirt-chasing]] [[The Brute|brute]] with a BFS that puts [[Final Fantasy VII (Video Game)|Sephiroth's masamune]] [[Beyond the Impossible|to shame]] who treats every brawl as the most [[Boisterous Bruiser|epic bender ever]] even as he and Asura fight ''on the freaking moon''.
** [[Fat Bastard|Wyzen]] is a [[Jerkass|condescending dick]] who manages to use up mantra to grow to the size of a ''planet'' in an effort to give Asura the [[Finger-Poke of Doom]]. And [[Beyond the Impossible|he's]] the [[Warmup Boss]]. {{spoiler|[[Moment of Awesome (Sugar Wiki)|It fails.]]}}
** The game is an example of [[Large Ham]] status.
* Hideo Kuki of ''[[Maji Dede Watashi Nini Koi Shinasai (Visual Novel)!|Maji De Watashi Ni Koi Shinasai]]'' grabs the attention of every scene he is in, [[Visual Novel]] and [[Anime]].
