Rayman 3

[Pirez]

The best version is the PS2 one because it's the one I acquired first and therefore have the fondest memories with.

[Greengoop]

That’s a very foolproof guide on how to choose favourites

[Pirez]

I mean, if you believe that videogames are art, and art is emotions, therefore the best game is the one that gives you the best emotions.

[The Jonster]

That would explain why I quickly got hooked on to BGE after Plum told me about it! Got a rush of excitement, intrigue and sadness towards the end.

I’ve got the closest memories towards the PC version and it’s the one I prefer most (it’s also the only version I have physically).

Yes, I do certainly feel like some of my views on gaming are the ones that make me feel something

Okay, so, Rayman 3 has a few English dub voice actors that we somehow know about but aren't credited anywhere.

According to Raywiki and plenty of other secondary sources:
Reflux is Ziggy Marley (musician, the son of Bob Marley!)
Razoff is Eric Bauza (Bugs Bunny, Fairly Oddparents, countless other cartoons)
The Teensies are Matt Hill (Ed Edd n Eddy)

Also, according to Behind the Voice Actors, Douglas Rand is one of the voice actors for Globox in this game--I assume the voice we hear in the pre-rendered cutscenes, which definitely isn't Leguizamo. (source: https://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/vi ... oc/Globox/)

But...how do we know this? What's the primary source for this voice credits? I can't find anything.

[Greengoop]

Maybe the voice actors came out to confirm it, or it’s mentioned in additional material

In the game credits there are VAs listed, but it doesn't show who they voiced. However apparently in the 2002.12.10 demo it does show it. Not sure how accurate it is, but this is what it says:

I do think the wiki should probably be updated in this regard, and would be good to add some sources for it too.

[Sabertooth]

WOW. Okay, yeah, finally a primary source for the voice cast! And what do you know, Ziggy Marley is nowhere to be found. What a surprise. Thanks, RayCarrot!

I would bet my life savings that someone just made a guess (or put random nonsense) a long time ago and that guess got repeated over and over and over again, until it made its way to Wikipedia and voice actor websites and Raywiki. I fucking knew it.

Unless there exists a primary source for Marley, Bauza, and Hill, I'm assuming the demo credits are 100% correct and that all the wikis are infected with BS someone made up fifteen years ago.

[PluMGMK]

Ahhh, we meet again, old friend


Well, considering some of the rubbish that's appeared over the years, I reckon you're highly likely to be correct

Also, it had passed me by that Jodie Forrest did the fairies and the hostess. So I guess Jade, Tily, the Ludivs and possibly Monik (if you subscribe to the "Hostess == Monik" headcanon) all share an English voice actor

[Greengoop]

I wonder what other fake raywiki information we have yet to discover. I might check right now!

[TeensieKing]

The discussion about the voice actors just reminded me that in Spanish both Rayman and the Teensies are voiced by the same voice actor as Spongebob Squarepants.

[Greengoop]

That’s a cool bit of trivia! Unless it’s forged by these other names here

[EdgyRabbid]

Okay i got a copy of Rayman 3 and on the back of the box it uses the fact Globox is voiced by Leguizamo as a big feature? Is he really that famous? cuz i only know him from ice age? Also why would he be on the back of the box????

[Greengoop]

Idk, what platform did you get it on? Also Leguizamo played Luigi in the old Mario movie

[EdgyRabbid]

360? Rayman 3 never got a physical release on the 360, do you mean the og Xbox?

[Greengoop]

You can insert the Xbox disc in the 360 but it notoriously plays dreadful
