So which voice was your favourite?
While I'm a G1 fan, there are times where I think Megatron's voice (Frank Welker) isn't up to par. For example in TF Prime I felt it was ok, but not as good as it sounded in the G1 days and I even thought it sounded better in AOE. Now Beast Wars Megatron is totally awesome. It's far better then Optimus Primal's voice in comparison. I would love to hear it again in another series. I never really thought it did justice to Megatron in Armada though. Now WFC/FoC Megatron's voice I love! It totally convinced me that this was an awesome Megatron and in fact a good mix between the G1 and BW versions. It had the raging madness of G1 Megs and the calculating mastermind of BW Megs.

Probably Beast Wars as well, but I did like WFC and FoC's one as well as it was a similar to Prime's. A guy named Fred tatasciore did WFC and FoC's Megs.
I actually don't mind TF Prime's Megatron by Welker it was like a little spin on the G1 version a, a little more twisted and wicked IMO. Occasionly you could hear little slips of G1 creeping in now and again. That's that thing with age as well. I've been watching G1 episodes again and Optimus's voice is so light and youthful, even at his age then but because of the movies and the likes of TF Prime (Also Cullen's age) Optimus sounds a lot more smoother and seasoned now-adays and I think that's what I'm used too. If I hadn't picked up G1 again I would've forgot how Optimus originally sounded!
For me the weakest, (Having watched a few clips is Animated Megatron. Corey Burton is great but his Megs is quite weak. Of course to get a wider prospective I'd have to watch a lot of the series again. For me worst Optimus is R.I.D. (2000) too tinny, although just better than Animated.

Never watched TFA or TF RID, so I don't remember their voices. I'll fix the poll if I can.
And yes, in regards to OP's voice your right. It has changed. Funny thing is I find it different between the bay-movies and the video games. In the movies it sounds older and in the games it sounds less strained.

I can't not say BW Megatron, though Animated Megatron was awesome, and as much as I dislike G1 Megatron, I really loved TFPrime Megatron.

In my opinion, the person who did WFC/FOC and that of Beast Wars Megatron are my top two, they'd strike me as some the most evil among them. Next would have to be Armada Megatron, I don't think the voice actor was that bad honestly and following that would be the Prime Megatron. G1 wasn't bad either but not one of my most favorite, I liked it more when he became Galvatron honestly. Animated Megatron...the voice kinda annoyed me and I'm rather mixed on the movie version while I got really nothing to say to the RiD 2000 one since I haven't seen many episodes with Megatron in them. The few I have wasn't too impressed.
