Asterix & Obelix XXL 2 remaster releasing on 29th of November
- Thread starter Tizoc
- Start date
They were popular in Poland in 80-90s (both in comic books and animated movies). Live action moves were popular as well (at least first 3 ones).
You'll find a big stack of comics in any Australian library right next to Tintin. I believe they're quite popular in commonwealth countries in general.
I suppose its the original dub from the Atari publishing days?
It was absolutely terrible, made in the Basque Country, were they have the worst voice actors of all Spain. (luk international animes, shitty reality american TV and mediocre documentaries...).l
They should have gone with the spanish voiceactors of some of the animated movies like Asterix en Bretaña, or Asterix y Cleopatra. Those or the live action movies voice actors, that are pretty good also.
Pretty much everyone knows Asterix and Obelix in Central and Eastern Europe too, but mostly for the animated movies from the 60's and live-action movies with Gérard Depardieu
Back in the 80s & 90s Asterix was everywhere in the UK!
I remember having a massive tome of a collection of various stories that I got from the local book shop.
Did they became less popular after the 90's there? Its popularity started in most of europe during the 60's and never really faded completely out even if it had a lot of highs depending of the decade.
Asterix was big in Italy up until the late 80s at least. I read it as a kid and have almost the whole collection.
Sounds amazing in Italian too thanks to some stellar translations (the art of good translation and localization seems to have been quickly lost during the past two decades though), even if reading it in French is the best. It's one of the greatest comics ever.
So this game is good? It's full price on consoles so a bit too expensive for me atm, but if more positive impressions are posted, I may definitely consider it when it's on sale.
I've no idea I'm afraid, I kind of lost interest when I hit my teens (mid 90s).
I do recall having a plethora of Asterix related stuff though, I definitely ended up getting the Amiga/Master System games!
Luk International... That dubbing company is the worst. I didn't know it was in the Basque Country. Believe me, cartoons dubbed to the Basque language have nothing to do with the quality this company has. They really have a huge quality and fortunately they don't share the same voice actors.
Well, is not so much luk international itself and more that they use the voice acting studios there for the spanish versions of Doraemon, shin chan, etc... they use other (much better) voice acting studios when they distribute the same anime series on catalonia, valencia, basque coutry, galicia... so its strange they want to go for such mediocrity in spanish. Probably because its much cheaper, like always lol
