Quote: old Spyro fan
ya Cree Summer wer good but she hade less dialog then Arnold Swrtsenegger in the ferst Terminator. Mae Whitman was relly good and she is one of the best voic acters alive but she simd to hold bak a lot and not dellivering al 100%. She was still grate tho and it my be sad that thy shendst her. (she is awsom in Avatar as Katara).
And finaly Christina Ricci, she dos not only hawe the most dialog over the 3 but she fitts the cherakter. and you kan relly konekt wid Cynder. Christina Ricci did a grat job and i hop they kip her. ^-^


Christina Ricci sucked in my opinion. She didn't put enough emotion into Cynder's voice. She was good at first, but then she soon got anoying. I don't really care about the number off dialog they have. smilie And she didn't put 100% into Cynder. More like 50% because off her lack off emotion.

Is is just me or do the charactors sound are speaking in a micro phone on the Wii verson?

This game is not Mega-Brilliant-Best-Ever-Spyro-Game in my opinion.
