Just for a laugh, which comedians would you like to see for Portal 3?

One of the best thrills of Portal 2, I think, was the wonderful use of Steven Merchant who is just such a talented comedian and really gave Wheatley some gravitas and power.

If they ever were to make a Portal 3 (the likelihood of which should not be discussed here) which comedian would you like to see do some voice work for it?

Omid Djalili would be fantastic I think. Sanjeev Bhaskar would also work really well. Tina Fey's an obvious choice but she would probably be too famous.

I initially wondered what the Americans would think of having someone so obviously British play a pivotal role in the game, and of the novelty of that.

Until I realised that Wheatley is the villain of the piece, and it simply falls back to the Yanks using Brits as villains, as they always have done.

Ho-hum.

Ha, well, im not quite sure about that in this case because GlaDos seems to be American but out of curiosity, what's your opinion on the setting of Assassin's creed 3?

Sorry, never played it. I don't play that many games these days.

Well, that's the thing, I'm talking about Portal 2 mostly. In this game, GLaDOS ends up allying with Chell to defeat Wheatley and take back the facility.
