Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 562 Joined: 21 Mar 2008     | .....is it wrong that the most stand-out scene, for me, is the one-and-a-half second glimpse of the alien ship's bridge, because it looks almost exactly like the original Star Trek bridge (with a one-person console in front of the captain's chair, instead of a two-person one)? And that..... was some weird shit dude. |

Paperboy Posts: 29 Joined: 21 Feb 2008     | It seems most don't get the joke with only the visual aspect, so I'll enlighten you guys: The panda's the leader of china. Also the dude with lightning shooting out of his hands is the pope, but that one's obvious. |

Not just glasses: Pince-nez. That pushes it over the top. Now if you'll excuse me, that video made my brain run away. I must now go find it. |

Who says it can't be a parody of hentai games while having hentai? Edit:
Agreed, I love the weird things they produce, as much as people deride them as perverted. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 2282 Joined: 5 May 2008     | I swear, something strange is always happening in that country. Maybe the bombings in WWII just left some radiation that drives everyone in Japan almost as insane as... as... um... Shit, there's really nothing quite as f**ked as Japan, now is there? |

Not to mention the frequent gushing from various members of congress about how adorable their president is. Cheney is the head of her fan club. |

Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 516 Joined: 7 Dec 2008  | Guys, stop scratching your heads about the panda and WATCH THE FREAKING METAL WOLF CHAOS TRAILER. I just did. It is the greatest thing ever. I want that game. Please tell me it works on PS2 or something else that I actually have. T_T I'm going to go check... Edit: It's for Xbox. Well poo. xP |

Gone Gonzo Posts: 1634 Joined: 28 Nov 2007   | [Shrugs] All told it doesn't strike me as being any worse than a lot of other things that Japan has done. It and "Metal Wolf Chaos" seem like political satires for people outside of the country being satired. Sort of like how the left wing did "That's My Bush" and "'Lil Bush" during his presidency which probably would have been fairly incomprehensible to people who didn't know American politics.... which I'm guessing most Japanese people don't actually have a working knowlege of, so they are satirizing the system itself through the one role they really pseudo-understand (The President). However, I also suspect a lot of this is based on the desire for Japan to be relevent, and have some of the things you see in the US. The idea of a democracy appearing, and of course most importantly the idea of serious international relevency to anything except trade. For example Japan is not likely to go toe to toe with Russia on *ANY* issue like suggested there. It's just not a world power on that level, even if the Prime Minister was replaced. What's more one also has to consider that going by that trailer, even if they "fixed" things by replacing the Prime Minister and using mind control powers to cause acceptance, it does not explain how Russia would be being run by a stylized cutie, OR how it would be in a position to do anything except intimidate europe. It *could* be amusing, but as in general it looks like it's a combination of Japanese wish fulfillment (stylized as humor), combined with satire aimed at people who have no understanding of what is being satirized. As far as the voice actors go, unless it's a fansub (which this does not appear to be) I believe a lot of bad Japanese dubs nowadays are bad on purpose specifically because Americans find them funny, and a lot of people have in the past bought bad dubs specifically for the humor value. I say this because there are enough good ones out there, and enough Japanese who speak english clearly and understand how it works, that there is no excuse for it anymore. Thus I get the impression they do it intentionally. I look back at the whole "Tada-O" thing from "Earth And Beyond" as an example of what they are doing (except for real). |

Well, it would be really cool for the few moments that we would have to experience it, then it would suck. |

lol sorry this is off topic, but I just listened to Libertad for the first time today |
Beat Writer  Posts: 184 Joined: 1 Mar 2009  | Wow. Actually the Metal Wolf game looked kind of cool. They should localize it for the US. Make the president in the game a black guy and have Samuel L. Jackson do the voice. Think about it. Samuel L. Jackson as the president saving the US by piloting a giant robot. It Would outsell Modern Warfare 2!!!!!!!!! |
