Narrators

The Narrator is a voice that provides instructions to the player while playing any Big Buck Hunter game, and makes remarks throughout the game. It will also say something to indicate when certain animals are killed. George Petro, president of Play Mechanix, provides the voice of the narrator for most games, including Big Buck HD.

Throughout the history of the game, there have been at least 4 different voices used. In the original game in 2000, and for the entire first generation, a Southern accent was used.

When Big Buck Hunter Pro came out in 2006, a different Southern accent was used, and this was provided by George Petro. It is unknown whether or not the first generation games also had George as the narrator. It is also used on Big Buck HD, for which new lines were recorded.

Big Buck Safari's release in 2008 had an African voice for the narrator as the game would take place in Africa instead of the usual North America. Ken Burroughs provided the voice work for this game and he provided a very deep African accent. Yenner Watani is also credited, but it is unknown which lines, if any, he provided. The Outback update was introduced in 2010, and Ken returned for voice work on the Ibex Adventure, but for the Rusa Deer and Blackbuck Adventures, Play Mechanix hired Andrew Curtis (from Australia) for Rusa Deer, and Anand Bhatia (from India) for Blackbuck, since they take place in Australia and India, respectively.

## Trivia

* When Big Buck HD came out, George Petro would provide the narration for the entire game (except the Premium Content, for the most part), even if you are playing outside of North America. This was probably due to the fact that Play Mechanix invested a lot of money into revolutionizing the arcade industry with Big Buck HD and couldn't afford to hire new narrators for different continents. Some old lines were used, but new ones were recorded.
