Check out Andrew Wincottâs best Game Performances here: https://youtu.be/OoQMK44FYuM?si=e0qhy6CPl1PEO9a0

Raphael singing his own boss fight theme literally cleared my skin, cured my depression, and launched my soul out of my body. My brain chemistry is forever altered. Historic. Legendary. Iconic.
-
"Am I a friend? Potentially. An adversary? Conceivably. But a Saviour, that's for certain."
-
His voice was so dauntingly perfect. One of the best voice over performances I have ever seen. I hung onto every word even though I wasn't going to follow along just because it was so good.
-
Let's appreciate whoever said hey lets give Raphael his own boss fight song.
-
Just want to tell Andrew Wincott that he did a wonderful job as Raphael. One of the stand out performances imo.
-
His voice is perfect. One of the best voice performances. Loved him and Galeâs.
-
I felt Mr. Wincott's voice made Raphael into a smooth criminal. It was always incredibly hard to say no to Raphael because I felt so compelled by his voice alone. Truly mesmerizing performance by Mr. Wincott.
-
"But [which Disney Villain] have they got in mind?" Scar. Be Prepared. He really channeled Jeremy Irons' character, whether it was intentional or not. And it was incredible.
-
When he said he'd worked on audio books I instantly hit up audible. He reads an amazing narration of 1984. Can't believe i've already listened to hours of him. Fantastic voice actor and the best Quest in the game for me
-
He's as charismatic as his devil counterpart. Perfect casting
-
âAnd down comes the clawâ The best epic boss battle. Kinda wish we could have a full romance with our drama geek Raphael romance. He was clearly a theater kid.
-
The moment Raphael's boss song started, I just got the biggest smile on my face, even after he one shot half my party. Can't wait to see what roles he does next.
-
Raphael's Final song was a highlight of Act 3 for me. It's hard to imagine Andrew didn't had any experiences with musicals, he straight-up nailed this one. Many fights in this game have a specific theme music, but this? This was *special*. It really is fitting for something preposterous like assaulting a devil in his house, you're supposed to feel like you've jumped over your head. And the music just does that. Beautifully.
-
I AM SO GLAD THAT YOU ASKED HIM ABOUT THE SONG. Best boss music in the entire game. Such a standout moment for me. I jumped out of my chair when I heard Andrew's voice come in on the track. It was so campy and just perfection. His performance throughout the entire game was SO inspiring and incredible. He breathed so much sensational energy into a larger-than-life character, not an easy feat.
-
Probably one of the best voice acting performances in the game!
-
His song is one of the best songs in gaming. Been in and out of my head for weeks
-
Can't believe he actually looks like Raphael irl.
-
the 90's villain comparison HAS to be Jeremy Irons as Scar in "Be Prepared"!
-
I love Raphael because he was in my opinion good presentation of how Devil should be. He's not in-your-face evil, he's charming, calm, etc, but you can see something is off about him. When he offers you a deal, he makes it so that you think it's one of your own making where you will come up top, but like Wyll said, house always wins and there's no way of beating the devil(s) at their own game. Which brings me to a scene where Mol signs a contract with him, he flat out allows her to beat him at chest, giving her false impression she can beat Devil at his own game. Also I think lot of it comes from terrific voice acting performance, he didn't raise his voice once and his lines sounded threatening because he always spoke like he's in absolute control. I played as paladin on my second run and because he's the literal devil, naturally I was very hostile towards him and Raphael was like "oh come now, no need for such behavior, you're civilized little mouse, aren't you?"
