Actually Fergie, i believe that he does do his own voice, but he and Jake Loyd were the only ones to do so. If i was in a star wars movie, i think i'd have some kinda clause that said i had to used for all voice overs. That would be so much fun.
Com Raven Posted October 31, 2001 Posted October 31, 2001 Ahmed Best is doing JarJar In the german version, everyone will be spoken by the same guys that did the voice-overs for the movies !!!
Paragon_Leon Posted October 31, 2001 Posted October 31, 2001 Voice-overs...God's revenge on common sense... Excuse that. I just feel that voice-overs always tend to tear down the genuine feel of a game / movie.
Guest dlayers Posted October 31, 2001 Posted October 31, 2001 Have you seen the English version of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (DVD)? If not, I think that would make you change your mind. I saw it in the movies with Subtitles....and let me tell you, the movie is much better when you don't have to try and read every single word that's being said...especially in a movie like that where there are some complex, political story lines taking place. Not only that, but the english dubbing is so good you really can't tell that it was dubbed...unlike the old Kung Fu movies, which are hilarious because they aren't even close
Paragon_Leon Posted October 31, 2001 Posted October 31, 2001 Haven't seen it, no. But from the sound of it, you're describing an exception to the rule..
Guest Hannibal Posted October 31, 2001 Posted October 31, 2001 Originally posted by Paragon_Leon Haven't seen it, no. But from the sound of it, you're describing an exception to the rule.. I don't think it was the exception. I don't like subtitles either but I saw Crouching Tiger in the theater and when I remember the movie I don't remember subtitles. It was good enough that the subtitles didn't get in the way. Oh yeah, and the CD voice over is terrible. The little changes that they make are noticeable. Like the line "A meat eating monk" when she's fighting all the guys in the restaraunt, what the h3ll is that?
Young David Posted October 31, 2001 Posted October 31, 2001 Voice overs are hated in the Netherlands. Here almost every movie that comes on tv is subtitled ... exept childrens movies. When I buy a disney video, I buy the subtitled versions. Nowadays, I buy DVD all versions in one. But ... we have some german chanels on our TV's too ... and in Germany they can't read subtitles very well so they voiceover everthing ... They seem to love it. Voice overs are in my opinion baaaaaaaaaad. But someone said that James Earl Jones did the voiceover for Darth Vader. If you're refering to the movies, yes. If your refering to the game, no. The voice of Darth Maul is ook a voice over btw. (in the movie that is)
Com Raven Posted October 31, 2001 Posted October 31, 2001 Reason is that in some countrys (scandinavia, obviously netherlands too) there aren't enough people for a voice-over to be cost-effective, so they just put in subtitles .... germany, with around 30-40 times for example norways population gets voice-overs ...
Silenthunter Posted October 31, 2001 Posted October 31, 2001 Well only if you use YD's Taunt pack witch, if I may say so, IS AWESOME!!!!! yeah, YD, where is the link for those?

Only Ahmed Best, Jake Lloyd, and another actor did. You can clearly tell that it was not JEJ.
Guest GL_Raptor Posted November 1, 2001 Posted November 1, 2001 There are or will be downloadable taunt packs for GB the same way there were with aok. Actually aok had better sw taunts than GB does
Compa_Mighty Posted November 1, 2001 Posted November 1, 2001 Voice overs are good here in Mexico, but I agree with Leon, it tears up the feeling of the game. I'm trying to get SWGB in English, because Star Wars in Spanish sounds terrible!!! BTW, the taunts are great!
