The voice of every cartoon you ever watched

Biggest jobs include Bender on Futurama, Jake the Dog on Adventure Time (which is the same voice as Bender). He's done Wakka and Kimahri from FFX, as well as Gilgamesh in FFXII. He's the voice of Marcus Fenis in the Gears series, too. He's got plenty of other credits, and it looks like some of them are actual acting credits, and not just voiced ones.
He's certainly not as prolific as Welker (whose name I was also familiar with, though didn't realize he's done pretty much everything), but he is a great voice actor as well.

DiMaggio is awesome in the Sega game, Madworld. As is Gregg Proops (",)
here's a youtube clip I prepared earlier (warning, adult themes. And really poor audio)

here's a cheat sheet for the lazily inclined. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Welker_filmography
Gray_Area:
Yeah, Welker and Peter Cullen are probably the two most casted, as well as popular, voice actors in history. I've been watching Dungeones and Dragons ('83-85, CBS saturday mornings), and he did like three main characters (yes, Uni is a character), as well as minor ones. Of course, he and Cullen were working together on that one, too, though in somewhat reverse roles.
shmokes:
Don't forget Mel Blanc. I don't know if there's a bigger legend in cartoon voices ever.
Mysterioii:
Oh yeah you gotta love Mel Blanc. I like Billy West's work too, he's like half of Futurama. Welker is crazy prolific though... It's a shame that they didn't let him voice Megatron in the Transformers movies, especially since they had Peter Cullen do Optimus Prime (of course Michael Bay crapped all over the Transformers franchise in general, but that's not a discussion for this thread...) I just think that since he was still around and active in the field they should have asked him to do the voice. I think I heard that he did a reading for it but they decided not to use him. ???
