Well, here it is: the long awaited re-dub of Iris' death starring Lucas Gilbertson (Zero in MMX8, XCM) and Ashley Schroeder:



And now, for ear bleeding comparison:

  3. This is really good, Lucas put some effort into the end, well done.
    I would love to see a Remake Megaman X4... only in X8 cast and probably new great voice actors too.

    If I have a mic, i can do Sigma and Douglas. I love it.
    wow.

  5. this is why I had wished the MHX series continued...this would be so awesome in the game. Use updated anime scenes for it, would have been better than the quality then.

  7. *is so, so so happy with this.*

    He says he had a few problems with mastering, which is why Iris's voice is quieter (and she's not a trained VA, after all) and the background ambience has largely dropped out. But maybe we can talk him into directly loading the unFLV'd .avi somewhere?

  12. What was he yelling at the end after "I have no reason to go on"?

  13. Was this something Lucas did on his own as a pet project?

  14. Usually when there is a case of bad writing, it is kind of a lost cause. However, Lucas and the new Iris did an amazing job of making bad writing look good. And holy cow, can that boy yell!! Top notch, Lucas, I can't wait to see more from you!

  15. Hypercoyote:

    Yes, it was! He did the mastering at his home studio.

  16. I guess it's better, but it's still really cheesy.

  17. He sure loves screaming. why didnt they get him on board as Zero sooner? after all, his liking is Zeros habit!
    the neighbors must LOVE ol' Lucas. 8D
    I thought Shroeder did a good enough job to get the job done. she could have put a bit more emotion in it, but thats just me. He should redub all of Zero's scenes. also, its amazing how many people have already suscribed to his account just from that video.

  18. Pure gold! I remember not being terribly impressed with X4--but if there had been this kind of performance behind it, I'm sure it would've made a much more profound impression on me. I'd always wondered what a Gilbertson rendition of this scene would be like--now we know, and it was worth the wait!

    @flame-wily: Yeah, but you have to cut Schroeder some slack. Like someone else said, I think she's just a friend of Lucas's and not really a professional voice actress. And despite that, she still did a more impressive job than the original Iris actress. xD

  19. Wow its better im amazed its really good than the old one its really good.....may be there making a new MHX... so all the casting are on practise

  20. Sounds like Dexter screaming on the second one :P

  21. Finally, I can not feel bad about myself for laughing so hysterically at this scene. (I still laugh so hard at the other one to this day.) I can take it seriously, now! THANK YOU, LUCAS GILBERTSON!!! I agree with everyone who says Gilbertson should do all of Zero's scenes from now on. If they do another X game, or any game with Zero, he should be the only one even CONSIDERED for the VA. If they hire anyone else, it's ruined.

  22. I think he should do the X7 scenes if they remake that for some reason. I can think of plenty of reasons that they would want to...(they should put all the Command Mission actors for the main characters in X7, come to think of it....I don't even play that game without putting it on the Japanese voices just to escape the horror of Axl's voice. The rest of them I could stand, it's just I liked the Command Mission ones better.)
