Wow. That's pretty bad. Especially considering the fact the gameplay was dissapointing, the best parts were probably the sound. Rockstar earnt so much of this, I think they should hand out extra money as a thank you at least. Still 0 K is quite a bit and he did get to help make the biggest game in history (Sales wise)

Yeah, poor guy... 100k.. He's being raped [/sarcasm].

Most companies will pay less then that, even if you've got a pretty high position. He signed up for this job and agreed to the quoted sum of money, so what's the big deal?

In a job that destroyed my right shoulder, both wrists, & was constantly exposed to dangerous conditions I made about

k a year. I also had 2 years out of work, got screwed on my workman's comp settlement & never got the treatment

for my shoulder or wrists. I got lucky & found a state contracting deal, but I'm still having a hard time feeling sorry for

him.

He should try that for a while. Or he can enjoy the easy money & the doors opened by his stint as Niko.

People like that should try the normal life, working for minimal wage before they start complaining for being underpaid for easy-ass voice acting.

This is very true, but he should also stop whining.

How long did it take him to record all of his voicing?

It's good, but not good enough. If he asks for something with a seven digit number he may be pushing it.

How long did it take him to record all of his voicing?

About 15 months (I think, according to link in Gerard's original topic).

If I were him, I would have asked for more before signing on. Shouldn't he have known that he was voicing the main character to one of the most anticipated games of all time?

When he was a nobody, 0k looked a lot bigger than it does now. He probably would have taken less at the time.

As far as we know, Hollick only voiced Niko for one game. Main character or not, it was only for one job. Now if he was providing the voice of the main character of very popular TV series that will spawn a few movies and videogames, then I might see him getting royalties.

Full point, you summed it up perfectly.

Just find a fan that will do it for free, Geez...

That guy should stop whinging, He could get famous from this !

if you havent seen/heard the interwiew you should know that in the beginning he didnt even know what he was doing it for, that might be why he havent thought about it.

He didn't know he was going to voice a character in one of the most awaited games in 2008?!

^ They only realised he'd be awesome for the part when they heard his mock Serbian accent, allegedly.

If he were to get royalties, I'd say the programmers should get royalties as well, they put much more work into this than the voice actors did.

he realy didnt know it. at first he was only ment to do some movement and stuff for the character, and when he then got hired for voicing he was first told about 3 weeks in to the recording!

so the sure have kept it quiet R*

That is awful. The man should receive royaltys for the work provided as Niko. He deserves much more money than he received. I think video game actors should be payed the same as actors. Same Job. Animation films have actors, these actors make millions of animated films. A video game is the same as an animated movie when it comes to actors.

Wait..Thats like 00 a day, righ?

Depends on how long it took him to record all the dialogues.
