Star Trek actors are the most robust actors. They’re everywhere. I watched all of Boston Legal without realizing it wasn’t Star Trek. Our boy Frakes plays adult Finn in the adventure time episode Puoy, George plays Ricardio. You can’t escape it. Star Trek encompasses all.

Edit: sort of unnecessary edit but when I use actors here it is gender neutral.

Demona wouldn’t be the disturbingly seductive menace she is without Marina Sirtis’ voice.

Ensign Ro and old Jake are both in Half-Life 2, those voices are ingrained in my memory so I instantly recognized them when i watched the show.

I’ll never forget the Powers That Be who passed on the Global Frequency pilot. Michelle Forbes was glorious as Miranda Zero.

Chris Judge from Stargate did the same. That dude is in a lot of video games.

Kate Mulgrew was a very distinctive voice. I heard it right away in Dragon Age Origin.

Patrick Stewart also has a great voice in Elder Scrolls Oblivion.

The first person from Trek I remember hearing in a game was Leonard Nimoy in Civilization.

Civ IV is still my favorite game of the series. It was peak Civilization.

Tim Russ also showed up in Dragon Age: Origins, like it was a mini Voyager reunion.

Patrick Stewart voiced King Richard in Lands of Lore: the Throne of Chaos on PC way back in 1993. One of my all time favorites.

Edit: and Michael Dorn was in a little known FMV adventure game called Mission Critical around the same time.

Leonard Ninoy was also the original voice of Xehanort in Kingdom Hearts.

Funny, cause Michael Dorn and Mirina Sirtis were in Mass Effect. I guess Bioware knows their crowd.

I definitely remember recognizing Frakes, Dorn, and de Lancie while playing through the War of the Chosen expansion for XCOM2. Also René Auberjonois on a few of the Uncharted games as well.

Don’t forget Marina Sirtis and Denise Crosby in XCom 2! It was quite the TNG reunion.

Yes, it certainly was! For some reason I didn’t recognize their voices. It wasn’t until I looked up the voice cast list to check the three that I mentioned that I found they were on it too!
