Dolph in the Rocky games
Posted: 22 Jun 2005, 23:21I only just joined this forum today, so forgive me if this thread is already on here somewhere.
What did everyone think of the renderings of Dolph in the PS2 games Rocky and Rocky Legends? I thought that in the first game, the likeness of him was pretty accurate, and he was suitably quick and powerful, easily dominating the ring in any fight. But what in the name of God was wrong with his voice?! It was atrocious! If the game's makers could get Stallone, Mr T and Tommy Morrison to voice their respective characters, surely it would only make sense to ask Dolph and Carl Weathers to do the same? Ah well.
Onto Rocky Legends. His voice has definitely improved, although there's still massive room for improvement. Plus we do get an interesting, if brief, glimpse at his background in the Russian army. So overall, this is the better representation of the Dolph-man.
Well, we can only hope that if the powers that be deem it necessary for a third Rocky game to be created, that Dolph (and all the other surviving cast members) will be invited to voice their characters, since none of the characters in Legends were voiced by their actors.
Thoughts please.
