Electronic Arts and Bioware can be quite proud of the excellent cast of Voice actors they announced yesterday and are now showing on screen with this video, quite a lot of big roles in recent and very successful series are in there.

Ashley was a bitch. I actually hated her.
Oh and it seems like in the future anti-ageing cream is really good. Martin Sheen's character looks almost too young for his voice.
+1. It's as if L'Oreal needs to put more work in making voices sound younger. The Illusive Man either needs to look older, or Martin is not quite the right person for it.
Oh, the other thing that will probably go through my mind when playing ME2? President Jed Bartlet.
EDIT: But what if your Shepherd is a lady? Does that mean...?
Sounds like they were not choosing the actors based on the characters they were meant to dub, but instead went with the best names they could get - who cares if the voice fits the character or not. Oh well, maybe there is going to be some post-processing.
Since they genetically modified Miranda, they could as well make her attractive.

Doubt it. They probably thought Martin Sheen would be a good fit for the character. It probably would have been easier for them to get a younger actor who is still well-known.

"the perfect woman" (no, she's not lol)
lol i know right, look at her face (ingame)
If they used this vid as the tv ad, maby non-gamers would finally open their eyes and realize that games have become much more sophisticated in the past 10 years.
My favorite voice in ME1, and hence will also be my favorite voice in ME2 as well, is my female Shepard :) I really LOVED that voice, very similar to the Admiral in BSG Razor <3

Dear GOD I hated Ashley!
Let's just say that when we got to the "I wonder who is going to babysit this bomb" mission . . . well, all I could think was "say hi to Wrex in hell, darlin'".

There were two things that really wrex'd (lol) the illusion of choice in Mass Effect. One was not having the option to join Saren when he asks you (understandable why they didn't let you, but seemed annoying that they would present a choice to you and give you only one option) and the other one is why you couldn't execute Ashley on Virmire for killing Wrex. You're a fucking SPECTRE, you're the top kid in the galaxy, accountable to nobody.
The fact that you couldn't kill her then and there really hurt the game for me, more than any bug or texture popin.

Impressed by the cast list, and Miranda; Shephard's getting a piece of that, no two ways about it.
Bring on 2010!!!
