Easter egg spotted: Cloud Strife in Battlestar Galactica's Caprica |
Ó
As seen in Battlestar Galactica's spin-off series, Caprica (which I've yet to watch btw - ooh, can't wait!), a familiar yet unmistakably-Cloudish figure appears as an Easter Egg. The pose is the same - the hair color, the asymmetric shoulder pad, the sword over the shoulder... and with a name like Storm, it doesn't take a Dr. Hojo to put two and two together and see it as a wink to the FF7 audience. (Storm... Cloud... Storm Cloud? Oy vey...)
Ah yes, gotta love Sundays - a chance to get some gaming culture fodder out in the open (screenshot from Joystiq):

haha haha wow just wow
looks a little like Stahn Aileron to me.
It does look a lot like Stahn.
Now cue the fanboys calling a fictional icon a sell-out! And the "omgz I bet SE this blah blah money". Man I'd never had noticed that, seeing as the only T.V series worth watching come on Adult Swim. And House, cause' House freakin rocks.
Nice to see a high profile show giving props to rpgs without having some dorky looking douche talk about D&D.
hmmm LAME
you know qj has nothing to report when fanboy speculations are headlining the site. why on earth would anyone think this is in any way shape or form, related to cloud
its simply background filler for a kids room, it looks more comic based than video game related.
lets not forget, their video games if you watch the show are virtual reality and if they really were meaning to pay any sort of tribute to a video game it would have been inside the virtual reality, a lot of the show takes place in, and not on a kids wall
.. mind you i love rpgs, i love final fantasy games, i love gaming.... but this is just taking things a bit too far in the realm of speculation and utter ***** reporting
mind you, i love rpgs too, i love final fantasy games, i love gaming.
and since i love gaming, part of me also loves gaming culture. i find it hard to believe someone who loves a certain artform (gaming) not love the culture behind it and how it overlaps on other media.
in no way am i intending this to be a news report. hence why it's classified under off topic. if it weren't obvious, i supposed you missed the part where i said "gotta love Sundays - a chance to get some gaming culture fodder out in the open."
i'd be a fool to deny that Sundays are slow news days. and being a news *blog*, we do take certain liberties in "news reporting" during the weekends.
