It was strange not to see a Spanish dub in Revolution. Didn't they use the same audio tracks?
Was there a Spanish dub in PS1, now that I think about it? I doubt they used the same tracks since the English dubs of Revolution and PS1 sound different. I think the Raymanian dubs between Revolution and the original version of R2 sound a little different too.

I think every version had a Spanish, except revolution, which had a German

Even the French versions were different between PS1 and Revolution and they were quite good!
But of course, nothing sounded nearly as great as the European
hellish "beeps and boops" dub from Rayman DS!

No, apparently there are just two versions of Rayman DS's soundtrack with the US one sounding identical to the N64 release (except worse quality) and the European one having even far worse quality from what I've always been told.
I was actually making a joke about the EU DS soundtrack being such a bad downgrade it would sound like the beeping noises from 8-bit games
...But the truth is, 8-bit video games sound a lot better

I’m not sure you really want to find that out. Curiosity killed the cat!

I don't even know if any of it exist online... and I think it's for the better.

The GBC games get those comments a lot too
Personally, I refer to their soundtracks collectively as: "Rayman OST - Headache-Party Mix Edition".

The more I think of it, the more I have to reach the conclusion that the original, N64 version, is the worst.

Shouldn’t there be a poll on this thread?
Anyway I agree for several reasons
•The textures are so ugly
•Rayman looks like a shape
•It is nowhere near as good as any other N64 games of its era
But it’s good for a few
•First Nintendo console to house a rayman game
•Has a free map come with it

So did the PC version, and a more accurate one as well (if you remember my question from the last TTQ).

That's funny, I don't ever remember a map coming in my copy…
I suppose it's possible I missed it
