Title: Re: Could this be ? Post by: Alvarin on June 05, 2008, 02:26:42 am No. How can you be so sure of it ? He did hijack spacecraft , can make anything into a weapon (or at least a destructive force) , has been put to hard slave-type work in spite of saving the world numerous times over and his pockets are absolutely positive inter-dimentional devices , judging by their capacity and size of objects stored . Other than that , the uniform and the hairstyle definately match (the blond could be just die) . Title: Re: Could this be ? Post by: Death 999 on June 05, 2008, 08:50:27 pm 1) if you're taking this seriously... the universes' histories aren't compatible.
2) as a reference, Space Quest 4 was released around the same time as SC1, which would make it unlikely that either could refer to the other, unless the art for the main character was last; and the androsynth captain portrait is too lo-res to be much of a reference to anything. Title: Re: Could this be ? Post by: Alvarin on June 05, 2008, 11:56:02 pm I'm not taking this that serious , i just like a good discussion when there are grey areas of argumentation .
No. 2 argument is a strong one , I never actually looked on release dates and the early Roger graphics looked a lot more like the Androsynth mellee pics . But , and this mainly relates to n.1 argument , this thread was supposed not to seek who inspired who , but rather more of the "Gandalf vs. Batman" sort of thing . Title: Re: Could this be ?

So either he has some weird disease or he dyes it. Title: Re: Could this be ? Post by: Lance_Vader on June 28, 2008, 12:52:13 am Come on, guys. Why do you think he's such a superior janitor? And, if he's such a good janitor, why hasn't he been promoted yet?
Obviously, his boss is an anti-Androsyth racist of some kind. Title: Re: Could this be ? Post by: Shiver on June 28, 2008, 02:08:05 am Obviously, his boss is an anti-Androsyth racist of some kind. Such as a human. Or an Ur-Quan. Maybe even an Orz. Androsynth can't catch any breaks, can they? |
