Game Day
The Final Prophecy
No one ever thought it would come, the underground day known as G-Day. Many believed it to be completely false, the day prophesied to bring about the end of gaming everywhere. The final battle of the Console Wars. But, all around us, it's happening. The Entertainment America Corporation (EAC) has released their latest console; The Fony Gamestation. It's cost a simple 5,000 bucks. But, what many believed to be an outrageous price, was actually a well conceived plan, to bring about the end. The EAC has just released their worst game ever, many believe it to be the worst game in the history of the Console War.
In fact, when used with the Fony Gamestation, this simple video game will spell certain doom for the entire world's electrical devices that are not EAC compatible. Forcing citizens everywhere to buy Fony products and spend too much for crap when they can get the same, and better, devices at a much cheaper price. This is where you come in; You are a member of XPLY, a sect outside the government that has existed since the dawn of the Atari 2600. Your mission is to uphold the balance between Consoles everywhere. But that balance has been shattered.
Reports are coming in around the country that products and consoles everywhere are breaking down, you must find a way to prove Fony is behind this disaster before it's too late. If Fony is, in fact, behind the wave of destruction, they will have broken their treaty, and all out war will be forced upon the nation. G-Day is upon us.

Welcome to Game Day, a comedy, clever RPG about the gaming world around us. Although clever jokes and witty remarks abound, there is a clever story filled with plot twists and death. And maybe a cliffhanger that will seriously piss you off after you've spent days playing the RPG to not even get a fair ending, but I digress. As stated, you will be a member of XPLY. An underground sect meant to protect gamers everywhere against the Console War. You are a Special Agent, but we'll get to the specifics in a minute. First off....
_______________________________________________
The Rules
1. No God-modding, or it's GAME OVER. You can die, but you only have one life, so be careful.
2. Game Master is law. Whatever I say goes. If I say you die, then you die. If I say you're a traitor, then you're a traitor.
3. You are only allowed to be a member of XPLY. No Fony PC allowed.
4. Remember, this is about being clever, it's comedy, if you can't take humor then don't play. And don't complain if I'm making fun of your favorite system.
5. You MUST have a password in your post, it is: Game time.
6. Also, don't gripe or complain on this thread. You have a problem, you PM me. Nuff said. You have a problem with a player, then you PM me. I DO NOT want to see OOC chatter about game systems and what not. You will be removed from the game.
7. USE IC (In-Character), OOC (Out Of Character), and TAG tags. And TAG the member's name, not their characters name. And keep OOC to a minimum.
8. One last note on the humor, although this is a comedy-satire type game, don't push it. Keep it fun, keep it simple, not every post has to have some remark or stupid metaphor. That's just over-kill.
9. If you leave or you can't play anymore, don't be a jerk and not let me know. It's pretty simple to click that SEND MESSAGE button. Jeez.

Now then, as I stated, there is a Console War going on. Here are the factions:
EAC Fony Gamestation- A $5,000 system that Fony has put out, it's the latest entry into the gaming war. XPLY believes Fony is behind the electron distortion going on around the country. EAC was once a proud company, but something has corrupted them.
MySoft GBox- A very powerful system costing a simple $450.00 The GBox is Fony's main competition, and could, in fact, win the Console War. Of course, with many system failures, a better version of the GBox released two years after its initial launch, and haters around the interwebs, GBox will need to prove itself. It is the underdog of the consoles, but incredibly popular nonetheless. MySoft is a powerful organization that makes countless devices, except for the Boom, a musical device that was mostly a rip-off, but that's a story for another day.
The Windango Cii- A kiddie system that forces you to jump around when gaming was made for the lazy who like to sit on their couches. Shockingly, it is surprisingly popular, but at 250.00 a pop what isn't? In its defense, the Cii is an innovative system, but is falling fast in the console war, with less than stellar graphics, and a lackluster game library, Windango is really going to have to step it up. Windango is, of course, renown for their stereotypical characters and simple game play.
Each Player Character MUST be in defense of a Faction of one of the above. So choose wisely, your focus determines your reality.
________________________________________
XPLY- This is the Private Organization, you are a member of one of the most highly regarded sects in the gaming world. For centuries XPLY has sit back and watched the Console War rage, of course, with the peace treaty between the three main consoles, nothing has ever gone too far, that is, until recently, when EAC openly attacked Windango and MySoft, and now, a dark war is brewing. You are one of many specialists, your occupations may range from anything that relates to the gaming world in some way. Think of yourself as an FBI Agent, but for XPLY. But, just because you are a member of XPLY, that doesn't mean you don't have your favorite system, because you do, and sometimes, that just may get in the way of work.

We'll start when I feel we have enough players. REMEMBER, this is a LITERATE RPG, so spell correctly, and don't make short-ass posts.
