www.game7z.com

This is so fucking great, if you translate it to English using Google Translate.

For instance, this review of Dyson where they wrote a whole back story about men having breast cancer in the future.

Or how about "Cow hell of a china shop" (Minotaur China Shop), and "Conductor Surface" (Cortex Command)?

They seem to have wide coverage and know what's what. Great site.

More complicated to operate the game, if not seen the video can not really understand how to operate.
Truthful and incisive commentary on Cortex Command.

Quote from: Encyclopedia article on Game Maker
Game Maker is a very popular instrument independent game, it is designed to allow the game are changing the production process easier. Ordinary players need to learn C + + or DirectX programming, as long as the mouse through a simple operation can make the game. And For advanced players, you can freely use the built-in scripting language to develop complex GML Game function.
Drag and drop apparently requires knowledge of C++. Shocked

No, that meant that ordinarily you need to learn c++ and directx, but with GM you don't.

I think the humor is more in the translation than in what they are saying.

That's what was meant, but the translation appears to mean you need to learn C++ and DirectX.

I know of two Korean blogs that feature indie games:

http://ritgun.tistory.com/
http://www.pig-min.com/

I only know about these because they have mentioned two of my games.

Wow, they are spot on in their observation that GalCon is about ovulation.

The Cortex Command translation was almost intelligible.

On the other hand, I have no idea what unholy forces are at work behind that rendition of the Dyson article. It is truly a work of art. In many ways it will be sad if there are ever decent software translation services available.

This reminds me of a compo idea I had a long time ago:

First, you type a description of a game. Then you google translate it into at least 4 different languages and then back. Now try and make a game that follows the new, horribly mistranslated description.

I like this comment on the Cortex Command review:
Quote
This game is very good play but unfortunately that's enough of our mentally retarded AI and enemy AI can be very clever hit was so basic that Rambo-style fighting to control a dozen mining hundred five do not count on AI robot set mining AI with a shovel and then they will come together to dig the sky ...

Hehe yeah, translation services are teh fun

On pig-min and other korean sites, people are always talking about the bedspread. Bedspread is important in korean gameplay, so don't forget about it!

The translation is fun, but the actual Dyson review is pretty hilarious in itself I think. I don't think it's down to funny translation. They genuinely came up with a funny back story to explain mosquitoes infecting men with breast cancer or something.
