If you're looking at offline games I personally highly recommend the following (which I played through)...some even come with the option to keep Russian audio with English subs:

FPS Games:

Metro 2033
Metro Last Light
Deus-Ex: Human Revolution (<- third person shooter)

RPG Games:

Skyrim
Witcher 2
Diablo 3
Assassin Creed 4 (<-- I'm currently playing it! )

Point and Click Adventure Games:

The Book of Unwritten Tales
The Whispered World
Secret Files 1
Secret Files 2

There are many others of course, but those are my favorites. Voice acting is well-done in each of them, don't worry. Especially in the Witcher 2.

PS. If you want more recommendations let me know, I have a couple more I can think of.

Its not so bad. I'd normally have text talked with anyone before I played a game with voice chat so its not bad.

Unless it requires a group of people then you get that problem but I have that problem in any US game I play so I'm used to it and I was a kid once so... (Though never acted like that lol.)

I'll have to checkout the witcher.

Weirdly I was working on a point and click game for fun and I needed a subject and I had read about chernobyl so I used that and that was what originally sparked my interest in that area and eventually lead to me finding out more about russia and then I wanted to learn the language. Tho there was a 2 or 3 year gap I think.
