Kevin Spacey being in more than one game is so morbidly funny to me.
common (best original song winner) is in terminator salvation and wanted: weapons of fate, both from 2009
eminem is in 50 cent: bulletproof, phil collins is in grand theft auto: vice city stories (as himself) - both also best original song winners

@jakobvongunten: good finds! I should probably go through the original song/score winners when I have the time. Though this does make me realize I shouldn't include existing songs under the umbrella of voice acting unless it is expressly for the game (basically just means Sinatra is off the list)
Small correction: Christopher Plummer was only in Klingon Academy, not Starfleet Academy.

@fivedollardare: huh, his IMDb does credit him for both Starfleet and Klingon but the Memory Alpha page for Starfleet doesn't list him in the credits. Thanks for noticing that!
