Gaming quote of the Week #7

This week we have a very popular game quote, coming from a 1988 video game. 16-bit shoot'em up game Zero Wing is remembered to this day for it's poor grammar, due to being translated to English by a person who, well, sucked at it.

The following quote from Zero Wing went viral on the Internet in the 2000s:

All your base are belong to us.

To keep the context, here is the entire dialogue containing this quote:

Captain: What happen ?
Mechanic: Somebody set up us the bomb.
Operator: We get signal.
Captain: What !
Operator: Main screen turn on.
Captain: It’s you !!
CATS: How are you gentlemen !!
CATS: All your base are belong to us.
CATS: You are on the way to destruction.
Captain: What you say !!
CATS: You have no chance to survive make your time.
CATS: Ha ha ha ha …
Operator: Captain !!
Captain: Take off every ‘ZIG’!!
Captain: You know what you doing.
Captain: Move ‘ZIG’.
Captain: For great justice.

As you can see this game was abundant in spelling errors, making many more lines worth remembering. It is sad though that few of the people who know the quote actually know where it came from.

Well, that's it for today. Come back next week for another dose of game quotations.

Epic Assassin's Creed Parkour Cosplay

I've got an epic video for all cosplay lovers out there. And if you love Assassin's Creed at least 10% of how much I do, you'll have an amazing time watching it.

The video, featuring a man practicing parkour (also known as free running) dressed as the main character from one of the Assassin's Creed video games, is directed by Devin Super Tramp, the same person who directed most (if not all) of Lindsey Stirling's music videos that we featured a few months ago.
