Are you referencing to C&C 3? Here's not a voice in the game, he's in the live action scenes.

Probably playing himself.

I'm really not fond of this game. Good thing it's not my copy TPSes are starting to get on my nerves too.

Bumped - I officially dislike this game now. 5/10. I've never felt so dissatisfied or disappointed for a long time. It's really ridiculous that this short game took so many years in development. Perhaps the developers were clueless because they had to reboot a reboot and kept starting from scratch every time.

Splinter Cell as a franchise is dead to me.

I dislike stealth games in general and have never got into SC as a series, however I really enjoyed Conviction, sure it was short as hell, but I can honestly say it is the only SC game I have enjoyed playing as I never really felt forced into using stealth.

That's what irks me about this sequel/reboot. The foregoing of stealth, an over-the-top story, and being shorter than a skunk's temper. It doesn't even look better than its five year old predecessor.

I can understand your distaste, while I like the game more, I think that was there game plan to appeal to a broader market, rather than the small percentage that enjoys stealth games. Good for everyone else, bad for the people who supported the series from day one.
