Talk:Code Monkeys
Badly Written
I'm sorry to say this but the entire Code Monkeys page seems very badly written and unproffesional. Please try to clean this up.
While I think that it's great that G4 will be producing a show like this, it's very unfortunate that it's coming at the expense of Mike and Matt Chapman of Homestarrunner] fame.
How does this show come at the expense of the makers of Homestarrunner?
Their website www.videlectrix.com, is not only a fictional game company from the 1980's, but a majority of the games are also fully playable and very entertaining.
Videlectrix has existed for several years, and the "comedy / parody" stylings of the games listed on the Gameavision site are obviously influenced (if not lifted completely) by the Videlectrix brand.Frankie Viturello 00:48, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
The company doesn't produce "old school" style games. The show is set in the 80's and they produce games (which would be old school by todays standards but are state of the art back in the 80s.) link http://blog.wired.com/games/2007/06/gaming-icons-to.html#more 198.133.139.5
- The character section seems to be taken from the website, it just doesn't look very Wikipedia-ey 24.196.115.179 23:44, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
I fixed one error the highest point score at the end of the show is 28620 not 28320. Snap.
Jonathan Coulton
Should the article mention that the theme song of the show is "Code Monkey" by Jonathan Coulton? --Piroteknix 19:00, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
I think that it's a good idea. This information is present in the "Code Monkey" article, and it makes sense to also include it in this article about the show.
Headline text
Logo
What is that pixelated logo on that guy's shirt? Is that the game company's logo? And if so, what is it suppose to be?
The logo on Dave's shirt is the Gameavision logo. If your look closely when they're at the front door in any episode you can see that there is a carpet with the exact same logo. I don't know for sure Im just assuming it is. I saw it someewhere else just cant remember.
Move?
I cleaned up the main article and the Episode articles but more episodes will surely come out, so should a seperate page be started of Code Monkey episodes? Otherwise by next year the main page will be two thirds episode list. Also, should another category (in the main article) be started on how the episodes are made, such as using a HUD and the bottom of the screen to display funny messages and how it's made to look like a very old game? Right now the show info is just floating around. 24.196.115.179 00:40, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
- Nice job with the new sections 24.196.115.179 22:20, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Trivia
Shouldn't that trivia section be moved to the appropriate article for the episodes the piece of trivia section refrences? The trivia section here should be about the show in general, not specific episodes. 06:17, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
