Robert Culp

Robert Culp

August 16, 1930 - March 24, 2010


Ok, some of you may not know this, but by far one of my favorite videogame series out there is Half Life, particularly Half Life 2. I played the game so much that I particularly know every in an out of the game- every nook and cranny and every hidden weapon stash and the like. I would play this game whenever I felt down, and its always cheered me up... its a therapy thing, I guess :P

Anyway, I also memorized every single line of the villan Wallace Breen, who appeared in Half Life 2. Recently the actor who voiced his seductive lines of evilness died, as informed to me by Valve themselves in this statement:

"We were deeply saddened to learn of the death of actor Robert Culp on March 24, 2010. We were fortunate enough to work with Culp during the making of Half-Life 2, when he wrestled invisible headcrabs, expressed a passionate interest in animation, and taught us all how to bring a character to life from words on a page, as he voiced one of gaming's most beloved villains, Dr. Wallace Breen. He will be missed. "

Truely, he will be missed.

I think I'm due for a Half Life 2 run through in his honor~
