    Random Idea #83: Sword vs Gun fights (in visual media)

    I had some shower thoughts after watching some various fight shows, specifically about choreography. So, I assume we’re all broadly familiar with sword fights.

    Note that “gun” and “sword” here are simply shorthand for any ranged, projectile weapon and any melee weapon, punches and kicks included.

    Idea #82: A random review of Cyberformula: Road to the Infinity 1 to 4

    The audience for this game outside of Japan is probably in the low hundreds, but after binging the games for the past two weeks, I needed some way to organize my thoughts.

    First of all, what is Cyberformula?

    Sonic Franchise
    Seriously, how the hell did I forget about the franchise memetically associated with hundreds of fan OCs?
    1) Setting: Mobius and other various locales seem to imply a fairly Earth like world [1]
    2) Inhabitants: waves hand in the vague direction of sonic OCs [1]

    Random Idea #81: Complaining about Scale in third person POV games

    In most games at human-scale, and even car scale to a certain extent, the 3rd POV doesn’t greatly change how large things appear to be. Your avatar is still going to look small when standing next to a large truck. The game “It Takes Two” is a great example of this, since the characters are shrunk to the size of dolls and tossed into the insides of machines and snowglobes. A gear the size of a

Random Idea #27 · 6:11pm Nov 24th, 2015

Why hasn't anyone used the G-man as a plot point? Mysterious person, plucking heroes out of the air, a time warper, teleporter, etc. Seems like it would be interesting.

Looming endgame that you aren't sure you really want, since the moment you win, the G-man might be looking over your shoulder, ready to take it all away and drop you into a new assignment.

Probably because it near forces a Half-Life crossover.

It's been rather heavily hinted that the G-Man is a major player in that whole universe, after all. The whole a dozen drug supped-up Vertigons to make him loose track of Gordon for half a game thing, I mean, let alone the constant impossible voyeurism.

It is a neat idea for a multi-franchise crossover, though.

Well, for one thing, it doesn't have to be the same G-Man. Could be part of an organization, considering he can stop time at will and teleport anyone anywhere.
Heh, that's basically how I'm going to excuse why this random person named Alan Tyler doesn't seem too surprised ending up working for a bionics corporation, and adapt absurdly well to the cybernetic arms he gets stuck with.
