Some Video Game Speculation

I sell video games for a living, working at a toy store, and if have my speculations about which game is referenced:
Night Vision Mode 4 - The goggles and night vision reminds me of the iconic Splinter Cell headgear.
Lord of Armor - The name and box art is similar to The Battle for Middle-earth II: The Rise of the Witch-king.
Tank Driverer - Could be tactical or strategy game with that name. I can't seem to think of a game where a tank is shown in that angle.
Sword Thong Gold Edition - Although there is now a fun fact that this game is a reference to Soul Caliber, I strong think that, unlike the others, this is a direct reference to Heavenly Sword. The name is practically the same, the box art is very similar with the same pose of pointing the sword forward and the long hair of the main character. And she also is wearing a thong throughout the game. If anything at all, I think this is the only fun-fact worthy one, since the others are somewhat generalizations.

As for tank driverer, it could be that old game called Bolo. But it doesn't seem to have any art at all. ColdReactive
I really think that trying to pin the games to any one thing as opposed to the general genre that it's in is pointless speculation. — Defender1031*Talk 17:56, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
I dunno, the night vision goggles -> splinter cell and sword thong -> heavenly sword seem pretty direct to me. -132.183.138.37 17:59, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
I agree with anon, there. Sword Thong Gold Edition is definitely a ref to Heavenly Sword. Nightsong81 20:00, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

"New Stuff" Glitch

If you go to the bottom of the "new stuff" bar, this toon is found at the bottom of the list too. Whatever2965 14:06, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

BRAINKRIEG

Brainkrieg sounds more like a hardcore punk outfit than death metal in my opinion. Any thoughts? — 66.118.242.7 (Talk | contribs) 15:35, 15 December 2008 (UTC) (left unsigned)

The band was introduced in death metal...'nuff said. DevonM(talk·cont-ribs) 15:54, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
I concur. The subject matter of death metal music is typically horror-inspired violence and the occult, whereas this song seems to be more social in content. Not only that, but their playing style seems more like punk or grunge rather than death metal. — 24.117.107.182 (Talk | contribs) 19:56, 15 December 2008 (UTC) (left unsigned)
The point made in death metal was that they WEREN'T a death metal band... — Defender1031*Talk 20:01, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
Um, fat drummer, bowels of lungs, hunched posture, "de" words? Admittedly they missed the mark a bit, but the facts are there.92.2.112.197 14:59, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Internet Channel

--ONESTOP 16:32, 15 December 2008 (UTC)This toon and several before it get screwed up on the Wii's Internet Channel. Why? (I is usin the Internet Ch. so that's why my sig came 1st.)

As we've discussed on the Wiki a zillion times, it's because the Wii's Flash player isn't up to date. --Jay (Gobble) 16:33, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
And you can't update it either, so don't bother trying.--Flytape8490 17:00, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

trivia

It seems kind-of pointless to point out that homestar on the cover sings along to "Homestar Presents Presents" in the trivia, when it states it in the transcript.

Cast

Is it necessary to add all the characters who appear in audio recycled from other toons? BBG 20:33, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Button Glitch

Is it just me or does the homescreen button not have the gloss that the others do? - Wecannotbesaved 20:37, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Longest toon?

Is this the longest toon of any kind on H*R pre-Easter Egg time? It's longer than any regular toons and longer than any SBemail without Easter Eggs included. Not sure whether this is worth noting though, since it does feel a bit contrived. 21:58, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

There's currently a discussion about it, but i say it's not a "toon" as such. — Defender1031*Talk 22:00, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

TBC seem not to have put this under "holiday" on the toons menu yet, just "new". is this important? should I put this under goofs of fixed goofs when they fix it?-Lifty Fernandez

During the brainkrieg video...

All of the buttons for the menu are tabbable. Also another thing to mention, maybe a remark instead of a goof/glitch: After the brainkrieg video, since the tracklist doesn't repeat, you must select another track before you can select the brainkrieg video.

Also, O, Decemberween has audio artifacts. ColdReactive

I know that and maby it is not a glitch. I think the smoking gutiar refers to Eat it music video where gutai r smokes then expodes.
