I put my full effort into it because I wanted it to be good.' 'I did this so I could get out of doing more commentary because there was so much to do. In fact, he even agreed to give his likeness to be used in UFC 2, just so he could get out of more voiceover work. Rogan's quick to point out that he's not regretful of the work that he did, only that the work took a toll on him. In the NSFW (language) video clip, Rogan dove into his feelings about his voiceover work telling his guest, 'Dude we did a fuckload of hours. Rogan did briefly discuss his time doing voiceover work for EA's UFC games on an episode of his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience back in 2016.

'Joe Rogan has been with the organization for so long that he's the voice of the UFC.' When asked why EA didn't simply go with another commentator, or even just a fictional one, Hayes said it came down to authenticiy. This seems like a lot of trouble just to get Rogan's voice into the UFC games. 'We don't have the ability to get him in the booth, we have to scour through hours and hours of Pay-Per-View and hopefully finding a clean sample of him saying it in a fight.' 'So all of the Joe Rogan stuff we have is from mining in-game broadcasts,' Hayes revealed. Instead, EA had to be creative and find other ways to get Rogan's voice into the game. While Rogan did record voiceover commentary for UFC 1 and UFC 2, he apparently couldn't bring himself to go through voiceover recordings again for the third game. 'We've basically come to an agreement that we're not going to ask to do it anymore because he hates it.' 'Joe Rogan absolutely hates doing voiceover for the game,' said Hayes. The only problem is that Rogan apparently hates recording voice lines for video games so much, that EA was forced to re-use Rogan's real-life, pay-per-view commentaries for UFC 3.Īccording to UFC 3 creative director Brian Hayes, Rogan's hatred of doing voiceover work is both upfront and well-known.

So it's only natural that EA tapped Rogan to be the commentator for its line of UFC video games. Is there something you think we should be reporting on? Email Rogan is one of the most popular names associated with the Ultimate Fighitng Championship (UFC).
