I guess this would be mostly for people who played games pre PS1.

Altered Beast on Genesis was mine. I remember being amazed and called my mom in the room to hear it. lol

Bo Jackson Baseball on NES.

If there's a close play at 2nd or 3rd base and the runner is out there's a scene between the coach and the ump that goes.

Coach "he was safe by a mile"
Ump "You're out"
Coach "He was..."
Ump "You're out"

Probably the oldest game I remember hearing voices was Mike Ditka's Ultimate Football (a game my dad had but I'd play it sometimes).

They'd say the name of the game when got into the main menu, and there were little phrases for play results and penalties like "first down" "incomplete pass" "offsides" and such.

First game that I remember having extensive voice acting was Wing Commander: Privateer

How loose are we being with the term human here. Altered Beast sounds pretty awful.

The first human speech I remember hearing was in a baseball game on Intellivision. "You're Out!" never sounded more nightmare inducing.

I remember that several Apple ][+ games had short lo fi voice samples. Typically only on title screens, but Castle Wolfenstein and Beyond Castle Wolfenstein were notable exceptions.

I actually think it was Warcraft 2

Because I never had any CD based video games until 1996. And I think that was when I got a new computer that for the first time ever, had CD rom and also first time for my family, speakers

I had been playing on a windows 3.0 pc that didn't have speakers for a while. Warcraft 2 was the first game I ever used the speakers on. And I remember the music, and the voices blowing my mind

I remember Dragon's Lair at the arcade but was thinking more of home games. I think I played that after Altered Beast actually.

I remember thinking is this even a game? I mean, I didn't feel like I was controlling it. It was more like watching a video.

Not sure. One of the early mortal kombat games maybe.

Maybe FF6 if you count Kefka's laugh or Celes singing?

I'm not sure which I would've played first.

Im pretty sure Dragons Lair had human voices as did the original Star Wars arcade game. Both were in 1983 so I dont ever remember games before voices.

I was pretty wowed by the Joe Montana Sports Talk football on Genesis though in 1993. It was the first time I remember play-by-play audio on a home console.
