The only time i found it funny was in Phoenix Wright. It was hilarious, don't you tell me otherwise >.>

When did it happen in Phoenix Wright?

It's not terrible, the only terrible thing is people thinking it's cool because it's now on videogames and using it even more, whatever happened to typing full (real) words, it's not that hard.

Apparently, acting like a retard is a newest trend.

for me, leetspeak is OK in small doses and appropriate context. Exclusive use can not be sustained over more than a few lines of dialogue. No problem with words like lol or FTW.

I loved the hammer bros part in Partners in Time. It was hilarious. I can't wait til the next pokemon game has a character who says "so i herd u liek mudkipz".

WE ARE TEH HAMMER BROZ. WE PWN JOO NOOBS AND ROFL. AND U AM CRY. (or something like that)

that had me on the floor laughing.

I think there's enough of 4shit on internet, I'd rather like not to see it in games as well.


QUOTE(silent sniper @ Jun 28 2008, 09:27 AM) imho, I figure all that internet talk (maybe 1337 talk) is the future of the english language.

It was more popular in certain gropus in 90's, or so I heard. Now it's mostly idiots. Or, like in this cases, gaming companies who want to get more popularity for their products.

I'd rather have "noob" and "haxor" than "aight" and "tight" whatever other urban slang they throw into everything today. The World Ends with You is terrible about it.

I mean, they made Optimus Prime say "My bad!" in the movie for crying out loud!

Well the the point of the topic

Playing pokemon diamond
nintendo tried to put thing like:

"n00b"
and "ftw"
into the game...

I loved those little elements in the game. Cracked me up each time I saw something like that in the dialogue. It didn't come off, to me, as Nintendo trying to be hip or anything like that; it just seemed like they were poking (no pun intended) fun at the terms themselves and the people who use them.
