Nolan North is everywhere. You probably wouldn't recognize him in public. But if you've played an action game within the last decade -- say, Uncharted, Assassin's Creed, or even Halo -- chances are you've heard his voice. A lot.

    There are sequels to Uncharted 2 and Assassin's Creed 2 that need to be done, not to mention "a couple of other big premiers that are still unannounced"

    Assassins Creed 3 + Uncharted 3 confirmed. Though we already knew they were coming, of course.

    He did voices in Halo and Assassins Creed? Who was he? EDIT: Mind my stupidity

    I find his voice instantly recognizable. Played Prince of Persia, "Oh, Thats Nathan Drake.". Played Army Of Two, "Hey, It's Nolan North."
