Was this thread made before? Anyway.
Why is it that the zombies don't have British accents, but the players do?

The bloat makes sense because he's a fat pig, but what about the siren/stalker/pat?

Because a British accent is jolly decent - and Zeds clearly aren't terribly nice people.
Actually, it is rather akin to the question that us Brits ask a lot: why are the heroes in Hollywood movies American (Arnie notwithstanding) and the baddies are so often Brits?

But the badguys have a second role. To look awesome, sound awesome, and be awesome. Not to mention hot. The British accent makes them sound smart too.

I think its oversaturation to be honest. Americana everywhere, and not just Hollywood, Action games based around USMilitary, Futuristic games where everyone speaks with an American accent, Sci-Fi games with American protagonists. I get that the market in the US is much larger, so marketing to them with familiar sounding characters is a good business move, it just makes you feel that America is the only country around.
Not that I dont like Americans, fine folk, you have a few loudmouths that can ruin the fun for you guys, but everybody does, its just that people seem to ignore the ones from other countries a bit more.
