Sorry for the fact there haven't been any posts in months, been busy with stuff. Anyways, I was playing Ghostbusters for the Sega Genesis (one of my favorite titles for the console) and I noticed that each boss has dialogue prior to the boss fight.
Ever since I was a child, I always hastily skipped these text boxes and got to the fun stuff. This time around I decided to take the time to read them and found some peculiar things. Among others, the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man was once a regular person who simply ate too many marshmallows (according to the text.)
But the ultimate 'what the hell?' moment arose when I reached the snowman boss of the Apartment Level.
After giving some idle threats it belts out with the following: "I'll skewer you in the bargain." Well, its fairly obvious he meant 'barbie' as in an Australian B
BQ, but even still, bargain? Even if they phrased correctly, it doesn't make sense.Why would a SNOWMAN skewer anything? Wouldn't that be better suited for a fire-themed boss (which does appear in the game)? It would be better if the snowman had some terrible cold-related pun, but I digress.
It's still a great game and the weird text simply adds character to this underrated Genesis title.
