Excuse me, but what is this? When I clicked on the voice actors link for MML2 on your site, I didn't expect to be greeted with slander towards Susan Roman. I may be in the minority here as your bio suggests, but I happen to think that Roman is a talented voice actress and did just fine in the role of Megaman. You also assume that Capcom dumped previous Megaman Voulnet actor, Corey Sevier, on a whim. How do you know that Capcom didn't try to contact him for the sequel? I was hoping that I'd see a bio for Roman that took into account her talent and ability rather than one that dwells entirely on the fandom's general dislike of a female actress taking on the role of Megaman.

On a side note, I wonder that the Suzan Roman who voiced Mayor Amelia is even the same Susan Roman who provided the voice of Megaman. The latter Roman has a very, er, distinctive acting voice, and all of her listed roles on IMDB ( www.imdb.com/name/nm0738751/) that I have heard sound pretty much the same. Compare the voices, and I'm sure you can agree that it would be a bit of a stretch for Susan Roman to be able to play the voice of Mayor Amelia. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

Feldinaut: I won't say I'm positive that they are the same, but I know I did see someplace that Susan Roman is sometimes credited as Suzan Roman. Therefore I reached the plausible conclusion that they are the same. If anyone can prove otherwise please do so.
Mako Crab: While I do see your point to a certain extent... I am a crazy Legends fan, and have been accused of letting that out too much in places, such as in the Game Reviews sections where I should be more impartial. So, I suppose in an attempt to not base things so much on my opinions, in this case I based it on all the opinions I'd heard elsewhere.
I'm not saying that was the right thing to do, but that was probably what was going through my head at the time. Susan Roman does get praise in the MML1 Voice Actors section for her work as Amelia... If you want to write a better summary for her in MML2 I will consider replacing mine. *shrugs*

I know it says she has been credited as being Suzan Roman on IMDB, which I linked to, but I wonder if this could have been an innacurate submission to the database? However, upon looking for another Suzan Roman, I could find no one of similar credentials.
So on the other hand, maybe it's not such a stretch after all... I'll have to check out some of her other voice credits. I'll check back here if I find anything worth noting.

Personally I like the Voice of Corey for Megaman's voice better than Susan's because in the first game he sounded like a boy but in the second he sounded like a little girl like Roll said as if he were of the age of ten!

Don't you think it is possible that they made a typing error in the credit's? I mean it is possible they are two different people but I think they are the same person and besides they have the same last name exactly a like so it is likely the Susan Roman who played Mayor Amelia!

No, people often go by different names, and as I already explained earlier in this topic, I have seen site(s) that say Susan Roman is sometimes credited as Suzan Roman. And as I also said earlier, if you can prove that they are different, please do, but a simple s-z change isn't going to convince me...

AHA, you have a point fab, I'm quite divided on what to think now.... cuz capcom DOES have a reputation of picking some pretty incompetent actors, aaand they have a habit for typos, aand they also were probably just being lazy and cheap, but who knows... The two Susans sound FREAKIN' different, so I think that that typo was no typo.. I'm 60-40 on the 2 different actors part.

All I have to say to that is that they had better sound FREAKIN' different if one's role is playing a woman and then a young man... I mean, an actor/actress should be able to change their voice talents to match the situation.

That's right I mean I can change my voice, as well I can do high pitched impressions as well as low pitched I can sound totally different at different time that call for it.

I can lots of accents and impersonations. Right now I'm doing voice work for the Freespace 2 mod Wing Commander Saga. (I LOVE Wing Commander) I do: John Wayne Sean Connery Jimmy Stewart Beavis & Butt-Head Christopher Walken Arnold Schwarzenegger Any British Person Any Scottish Person Any Russian Person Any German Person I can also do... pretty high voices. Deep also. The best out of that list is probably Christopher Walken, then John Wayne. By the way -- Tracy Ryan is a porn star too! (Not that Tracy Ryan, another) TRUST ME!

I wonder why Susan play the voice of Megaman in MML 2? In my opinion she's okay, but I really like the same person who played Megaman's voice in MML 1.

Ummmmm I would call that spam ZF goku, we don't really care who you can impersonate 2nd, why would we care about some other perverted Tracy Ryan. Personally I don't realy care if they are 2 different people, all I know is that capcom chose the wrong voice actor for Megaman
