Mercifull Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 While the filter has blocked the flash file i can guess how it goes. I never really got the whole "all your base" thing. I thought it was lame right from the start, you get examples of "Engrish" all the time Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

Bubsa Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Rofl, God that brought back memories :) The techno beat gave me a migraine last time I listened to it, if I recall. This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketman089 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 I remember that phrase being a cheat code in some way for almost every PC game out there. Why did it ever become famous? Gamertag: King Arizona Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBiffo Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 I remember that phrase being a cheat code in some way for almost every PC game out there. Why did it ever become famous? I believe its from the "engrish" translation of Zero Wing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubsa Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 According to the site: Toaplan creates the Zero Wing video game. Toaplan releases a port for the Sega Genesis console with the addition of an intro scene, which is then translated into english (very poorly) and released in the United States. Toaplan goes out of business. Someone from a Zany Video Game Quotes website notices the poor translation, and highlights the game. Overclocked.org does a humorous voiceover of the Zero Wing intro in a fake Wayne Newton voice. Dozens of game-related messageboards begin to post quotes from the parody, and images altered to show the phrase. Most of the threads lose interest and die off quickly as the trend is pronounced dead countless times. The Flash movie/video is released with images from the threads and music taken from the origional game someone had added the phrase "all your base" to. AYB explosively expands to the general (non game messageboard-reading) public. The origional site for the video is shut down within hours due to excessive traffic, and moves to PlanetStarsiege. Lycos ponders how "All your Base" was transformed from obscurity to a top 50 search practically overnight. Mainstream media begin to notice the trend, and stories appear in Time Magazine, USA Today, Fox News, The Los Angeles Times, Tech TV, Wired, and many others. As the 'remix' used in the video goes from 58 hits a day to several thousand per day, mp3.com notices the track has been ripped directly from the video game and pulls the music off their site due to copyright violations. It is later returned unchanged. The trend continues to grow as it expands into nearly every corner of the web. Large websites like Angelfire and Hewlett Packard sneak "all your base" references into their designs. "All Your Base" is pronounced dead several times every day, yet it's 15 minutes of fame continue for some reason... This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you.

Pete_the_Viscous Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 In PCZone there was a section devoted to this, once, and another example was from a beatemup game--I can't find a picture. It was on the "challenge" screen, and showed an old man (the type that is always the really powerful one in that genre) who said, amongst other things "Your fists of fury are about to meet my steel wall of niceness". There were other ones, some of them hilarious, but I can't say them here, as some of them had rude words in them--and others wouldn't make sense without the pictures. deviantart account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
