I'd heard rumours about actors in the 'live action' intercom messages in Frontier: First Encounters being at best 'wooden' and at worst, downright awful and I wondered if there was any truth to the rumours. Well, after a lengthy, well quite lengthy, well okay a couple of minutes, search on YouTube I unearthed these:
Part 1
Part 2
Barf buckets at the ready....

Nice find!
I watched the first one, but I need to take a break. My intelligence circuits appear to have melted.

Yeah, I had to drag Stepan away from the monitor. He thought that they really nailed the characterisations....

Oh God. This is awesome. These videos are priceless for their comedy value alone.

I remember the gaming press was very excited at the time as it was pretty much the first game to have any FMV (Full Motion Video - hmmm... can you get part motion video then??)
I remember being distinctly underwhelmed...

To be honest, I think the denizens of this board could do better than that.

Yes. They produce a lot of it in Japan. :-)
