* ''VideoGame/ThiefIITheMetalAge'' (2000) - Returns as the voice of Garrett and of several established and new {{Bit Character}}s, as well as certain enemy types. But, to the surprise of many, he also voiced the game's ''main villain'' (with a notably different voice that most people didn't recognize before seeing the credits). This leads to an interesting occurence of TalkingToHimself in the later phases of the game.

* ProductionPosse:
** A rather slight example of this. He was a well regarded voice actor at Creator/LookingGlassStudios, and after that developer went under, Russell appeared in several works of Creator/IrrationalGames, one of Looking Glass' collaborators and direct successors.
** Also, in more recent years, he's become a go-to voice actor for Bethesda Softworks, having appeared in ''Fallout 3'' and ''4'', as well as in ''Skyrim''.
* TalkingToHimself: Related to his ManOfAThousandVoices entry. Occurs in a few games where he played several of the main characters. Possibly the greatest examples are ''Thief II: The Metal Age'', where he voices both the protagonist and the antagonist; and ''VideoGame/{{Fallout 4}}'', where he voices [[TheJeeves the stuffy British butler bot Codsworth]] and [[HardboiledDetective hard-nosed detective Nick Valentine]]. Their voices sound nothing alike.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Stephen was approached initially for the role of Booker in ''Bioshock Infinite'', but was later replaced by Creator/TroyBaker.

* ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim'' (2011) - Voices a range of characters, including Barbas the talking dog, Mallus Maccius, Belethor, Madanach, the Daedric Prince Clavicus Vile, the leader of the Thieves Guild Mercer Frey, and his associate Cynric Endell. The latter two characters are a ShoutOut to Russell's previous role as Garrett (to the point that it gets slyly lampshaded).
