I mean, honestly, people!

They're both short, fat, obnoxious children hellbent on taking over the world!



This thread is for characters in fiction you feel are inspired by video game characters, and vice versa.

    No, not really.

    You see, Pokey actually had depth of character. From Mother 2 to Mother 3 he evolved from a wussy shy guy to a power hungry fool.

    Cartman has been the same one dimensional character for 10 years.

    I bet in the next South Park episode, Cartman bitches about Jews.

    Nah... in the first episode of South Park he was just "cheesey poofs cheesey poofs" and "no kitty this my pot pie!" and stuff.

    Then if you go look at that Scott Tenorman episode, you see that Cartman has become a lot smarter... no?

    You're an idiot and I bet you don't even watch the show. He's pretty much gone from just being a fat asshole to becoming one of the most malicious and genuinely black hearted characters in cartoons.

    I say he's more like Kefka

    They should make an OK Computer video game. The goal would be avoiding contact with people. The final boss would be Neurosis.
    also, there is nothing you can do to defeat the final boss

    Also, the ball in Katamari always reminded me of George Wendt.

    How did the makers of Splatterhouse not get sued? I mean, with Snake and the guy from Terminator 1, I can see plausible deniability (plus, if I were a judge I'd throw the case out just because the whole Terminator universe is a time paradox and that annoys me) but Rick is a blatant rip off.

    They did. They were forced to change the mask to a red mask in the Sega Genesis version.

    The Turbo Grafx and Arcade versions still have the white mask, though.

    Ah ... red. Well, that makes all the difference!! He's probably unrecognizable in red mask.

    I have the genesis version of both Splatterhouse 2 and 3. The mask is white.

    In some versions (Wii VC) the mask is red.

    Man, I wish we had a version of Mother 3 over here so that I could have found that out.

    I was gonna apologize at first, cause if it's anything to hate, then hate a spoiler. But really man. Pokey's involvement is common knowledge.

    I might have gotten it backwards then. TG16 it's red, and genesis it's white.

    I don't think he was bitching about spoilerage... I think he was bitching that we don't have Mother 3.

    Since I'm a bettin man today, who wants to bet that the soundtrack release was a "test of the market", kinda like Fire Emblem on the GBA?

    Soundtrack release? Did they release the Mother 3 soundtrack over here with no game to go with it?

    Also, PowerLlama is right about the comment I made. I don't care about spoilers like Pokey being an arse, I care about actually having an english cart that says Earthbound 2 with the Nintendo Seal of Approval slapped on it.

    Not one, but two different soundtracks.

    OST, and an arranged version. The arranged version has awesome artwork.

    Well yes, but if you'd seen that particular Prison Break episode... let's just say Kellerman looks and acts very 47-like. Even though he has hair.
