Gergely Posted January 1, 2002 Posted January 1, 2002 In year 3, when you make Naranja pass out at Toto Santos' place, he speaks Hungarian!!! He sais things like: "Ha azt hiszed hogy fizetés nélkül elmehetsz, nagyon tévedsz" or: "Részeg csavargó" (which means: drunken homeless) The game though only writes "idiot" as a translation. So is Toto Santos Hungarian???? Which programmer did do this? I browsed the credits, and only found one (possibly)hungarian name, Szarabajka. I just remember the family name. So he gave his voice to 2 characters. Anyone have an idea about that? [A Hungarian guy]
Metallus Posted January 1, 2002 Posted January 1, 2002 That's interesting, considering he's got a uniquely Spanish name.
MeddlingMonk Posted January 1, 2002 Posted January 1, 2002 My take on Toto is that he's been around. Wherever he's from, he probably spent his life in various port cities and has picked up several languages. He's a gutter-cosmopolitan. Maybe they did pick Hungarian for Toto to bad-mouth people in another language (although I think I hear Chinese coming out of his mouth sometimes). But you can't draw any conclusions based on someone's last name, not in the United States.
Schmatz Posted January 2, 2002 Posted January 2, 2002 Wait... is that at the tattoo parlor... geez I play the game and 2 months later I forget! I'm pretty sure I'm right though
MeddlingMonk Posted January 2, 2002 Posted January 2, 2002 Yep. Toto's the tattoo guy. Actually, it's scrimshaw ('the art of carving or incising intricate designs on whalebone or whale ivory'--no wonder it hurts!).
Gergely Posted January 2, 2002 Author Posted January 2, 2002 Ok-ok, I was just searching for a hungarian name, to find a reason for the hungarian speech. Oh and Hungary has no ports, it hasnt got any sea shores... But its cool anyway.
MeddlingMonk Posted January 2, 2002 Posted January 2, 2002 The reason probably is: they needed a foreign language for Toto, and someone knew Hungarian. And I'm sure Hungary's landlocked position doesn't prevent anyone from leaving the country traveling the world if that person so desires.
Gergely Posted January 5, 2002 Author Posted January 5, 2002 You said: "The reason probably is: they needed a foreign language for Toto, and someone knew Hungarian." If you read my first post again, that was the second part which I wrote. But hey! It doesnt matter, I didnt want to start arguing about this, I just wanted to share this info with you guys.

ThunderPeel2001 Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Can you tell us all the Hungarian things he says?
