Wil Weaton did voice for Red Dead Redemption, was 'fun' photo

Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption is looking great, for sure. And if history is any indication, it's likely that it'll sound just as good, with decent writing and (mostly) spot on voice acting delivery. 

Well, you can add King of the Geeks and actor Wil Wheaton to the cast list. The writer, actor, and seeimingly all around awesome dude confirmed a role via Twitter. (Of course.)

"I secured permission to say that I did voice work for Red Dead Redemption today," he wrote. "I can't say anything specific, but it was really fun."

True story: I stood around while Anthony Burch tried to convince Rockstar PR to convince someone with some authority to get him and Ash into one of Rockstar's games. I guess they went with Wheaton instead. A couple of more seasons of Hey Ash, though...

It probably has to do with Anthony and Ash being talentless hacks.
