Most of us who enjoy video games don't hear much of the Geordie accent when we play them, unless we're shouting at the PlayStation ourselves.

Two Point Campus, a university management sim where players build their dream academic establishment, was released on August 9 on PlayStation, Xbox and PC. And Dan Pye, who is the voice donor for County Durham comedian Lost Voice Guy, plays a number of the male characters in the game, including DJ Shorts, who has a thick Geordie accent.
