It really bothers me that they make all the italian characters speak with an accent. Why can´t they just speak proper english instead? Or Italian with subtitles. We see that all the time in american TV too. Every foreigner has to be dubbed by someone with an accent. Like 80s action movies, where all the russians speak english with accents among themselves, lol. I wonder if they stated that before the voice actors auditions: "You should be able to produce an authentic sounding italian accent for this part"! Hey dumbasses - if you are dubbing in english, drop the f...ing accent! At least they have italian accents, unlike the brazillian characters in Need for Speed Nitro, that have hispanic accents (they must all speak spanish in south america, cast a puerto rican dude!).
They seem to be the opposite of America, where cartoon violence is forbidden but game violence is ok... The Fist of The North Star is one of the most violent movies I´ve ever seen!
One more thing, the real São Paulo looks a LOT like NYC, it is a very gritty, gray city. It definitely does not look tropical in any way. I wonder why they would put it in São Paulo (the largest city in the southern hemisphere with 22mil people) and make it look like the amazon. It's really stupid...
Actually, they look like Rio de Janeiro favelas, and they are not like those in São Paulo (i.e. on hills). Anyway, they are once again making one of the biggest country in the world look like its most famous city. Developers could use some wikipedia from time to time.
