Holy shit, if that description was real, then I would've believed that NEC just didn't give a flying f*ck about its own system in R1 land.  Thank God it's just doctored.

Still funny as hell though. :lol:

Sorry, but I don't see your library card on the books of Ys.  Now, RETURN THEM TO ME!!!

I honestly take it as a huge compliment that anyone would think it's real, even if only for a few seconds.

Well you have to admit, it does look completely official if you don't happen to actually read what is being said.

If you wanted, you could make a more professional sounding blurb and I'd give money to anyone who could tell it wasn't real.

This topic rules! I hadn't seen that first back insert, and it only confirms my belief that Joe here is one of of the great members of this forum. Gotta love the mish-mash of stupidity, and the Johnny Turbo quote is the icing on the cake!

Considering that you guys are considering making a more "legit" back. I have proudly decided to offer my writing services to produce the synopsis for it.

And yes, I did pull this out of my ass in a few minutes time, using the manual for reference.

The evil general Don Jingi of the Obellon Army is attacking the peaceful Planet Colony of Aries!
As the greatest starpilot in the galaxy, codenamed "Hawk," you will face off against the Obellon
Army in a top-of-the-line fighter to stop them single-handedly in the war to end all wars!
Can you save Planet Aries from the evil hands of Don Jingi? Its fate is in your hands...

* Seven intense levels of hardcore shooting action!

* Tons of impressive power-ups!

* Includes Bonk's Adventure and Bonk's Revenge!

* Also includes a secret game...Can YOU find it?

The cut out of that boy from the Johnny Turbo comic gave it away for me :P .

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).
