PCP Station

The PCP Station (yes, that is the real name) is a PSP ripoff handheld. It is the successor to the earlier POP Station PSP ripoff. It has an LCD screen similar to the Tiger handhelds, which when combined when the fact this is a PSP ripoff and the name, it is easy to see how terrible this thing is. Also, what's next? The LSD station?
Sega Dreamcast

the Dreamcast

The Sega Dreamcast was a disc-based game console released by Sega in 1998 in Japan and 1999 for the rest of the world. The console was a commercial failure and was discontinued in 2001, and Sega stopped manufacturing hardware. However, despite this fact, the Dreamcast is a genuinely great console with many good games, including Space Channel 5, Chu Chu Rocket, Jet Set Radio (aka Jet Grind Radio), Skies of Arcadia, Crazy Taxi, Shenmue, and of course, Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2. Today, the console has achieved a great deal of popularity with collectors, and it has a dedicated homebrew scene.

DVD

DVD is a digital optical disc video format introduced in the 1990s. The format is probably the most widely used physical format in modern times. It offers superior picture and sound quality to VHS, Betamax, and most other video formats before it. The technology was inspired by Laserdisc, which was analog, but DVD was digital, so it was a whole new step to the future. The format is still one of the most versatile in history.
XBOX 360

the XBOX 360

The XBOX 360 is a game console released by Microsoft in 2005. It was the successor to the XBOX from 2001, making it the second console in the series. It is quite often cited as Microsoft's signature console, having an eleven year lifespan, being discontinued in 2016 and bringing in a lot of revenue from this lifespan. It is most known for the Call of Duty series, Battlefield series, and many other series.
Super Mario 64 DS

the game's cover art

Super Mario 64 DS is a 2004 remake of Super Mario 64 on the Nintendo DS. The gameplay is obviously very similar, but there is a large amount of content and improvements over the original which led many to consider it the definitive version.

## Gameplay

It is pretty much exactly the same as Super Mario 64. However, three new playable characters (Luigi, Wario, and Yoshi) were added to the game, in addition to 30 new stars, making for a total of 150, new levels, new bosses, and minigames.

## Reception

The game was well-received upon release, and due to its many improvements it is sometimes seen as the best version of Super Mario 64.
Kazakhs

Kazakhstan maintains few regular forces in the area around Baikonur, both because there is little need and to minimize any chance of ethnic or nationalistic tension. Any needed forces would be drawn from the scattered regular military as well as a militia system.

These forces are not truly under the direct control of the local civilian government. Charismatic and experienced warlords dominate and drill the troops. In the event of conflict, a loose confederation of these warlords would act as a guerrilla force until proper Kazakh forces could arrive.

The combat potential of the Kazakhs is strong. The most numerous combatant is a Militiaman, armed and drilled with an old automatic rifle, but none too accurate. These are bolstered with regular or reserve Soldiers, who have received proper training and are armed with assault rifles.

The significant force amongst the Kazakhs are the Warlords. These men lead by example, wielding their assault rifles well and encouraging the other Kazakh troops. Their personal leadership is strong enough that all Kazakh forces receive a morale bonus when a Warlord is present; Warlords may also rally individual soldiers whose morale has failed.
Corporation

In the Shadow Watch Campaign, you take the role of the chief of security for a large international Corporation.

He ends up living in a swamp in 1096 AD, where he lives until 1134 when he meets Donkey and saves Fiona within days. He is also indirectly responsible for the assassination of Lord Farquaad, which he ended up coming back to life in 2015.

Я магический пенис, так что ты хочешь, чтобы я сделал сегодня? Я волшебный член, и я не знаю, что сказать. Шрек - это кек, я - пенис, ячеистый пенис, который прилипает к центральному отверстию влагалища. Деление клеток начинается с профазы, в которой происходит сверхсмазка. Затем хромосома 21 в трех из них у вас есть шрек пенис, и они затем решают, что эй позволяет человеку сороконожку, и они выстраиваются в центре клетки в метафазе.

Super Betamax

Super Betamax, just known as SuperBeta, is an analog magnetic videotape format introduced by Sony in the mid-1980s. The format was one of Sony's last attempts at making Beta catch on and beat VHS, but JVC released the VHS HI-FI standard and S-VHS, which due to their lower costs and longer recording time caused SuperBeta to disappear from relevancy.
Tonaverron

**Police Captain Tonaverron** has operational control of most of the police in the city of Rio de Janeiro. His rise to such power has been steady and swift, aided by his excellent personal skills and a record devoid of any ethical compromises.

Tonaverron runs his department in the style of a small-town police officer. He rarely handles any paperwork or politics, leaving such mundane tasks to a Police Supervisor who is nominally his superior but in practice follows Tonaverron's lead. Instead, Tonaverron spends many of his working hours directly with his detectives, often spending days on the street as well.

Directly due to Tonaverron's influence, the police of Rio have undergone a sea change. One ridiculed and vilified for their corrupt ways and lethargy, the police have swiftly transformed themselves into an upstanding force. Tonaverron could easily advance further into the ranks of politics, but prefers to remain where he is, at the top of his game.

Voice stress analysis suggests that Tonaverron maintains a country accent and crude speaking habits by choice. His inability to remember names, however, does appear to be genuine.

The Corporation views Tonaverron with an open and friendly stance. He is not cleared to receive classified information, but can be trusted with operational facts based upon the given situation. His advice, especially with regards to the political situation in Rio, should be heeded.
Sir Shrek

an image to represent the character

**Sir Shrek** is an alias of Youtuber *DiamondMinerStudios*, the Youtube Channel this wiki is themed to. He took aspects and characters from many different games, movies, etc. that were previously unrelated, gave them connections (often times comedically), and combined things he "made up himself" (massive quotes there), making the "Sir Shrek Universe." He is the king of the Sir Shrek area - in Northeast USA - and the head of the Global Protection Agency, or the G.P.A.

## Glorious Brogre Master Folder

Up until February 2016, the stuff that Sir Shrek was doing had no real place to be stored collectively with all the videos, pictures, documents, and folders being saved. Originally, the Pictures library on Sir Shrek's cheap laptop was the location, but in that Pictures library on February 9, 2016, the Glorious Brogre Master Folder was created as the storage area. It was later moved to the Videos folder for a reason that I don't know.

## Image

Several different images are used to represent Sir Shrek, such as an image of President Trump with a "TOP KEK" hat, Shrek with President Trump's head, the image in the infobox, or a real image of Sir Shrek with his face blurred. The most common ones are topkek Trump and Shrump.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

the game's cover art

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is a game released in 1992 for the Sega Genesis. It is a direct sequel to Sonic the Hedgehog.

## Gameplay

It's a 2D platformer that more or less plays identically to the first game. One new addition is the spindash, which when activated by pressing down and mashing the jump button, gives the player a burst of speed. This game focuses more heavily on speed than its predecessor, with the levels being designed more with a layout that requires the use of the spindash and allows for the player to go fast.

## Reception

Sonic 2 was and still is the bestselling Sega Genesis game of all time. It was this game that really made Sonic popular, and if Sonic 1 set up the Genesis to compete with Nintendo, then Sonic 2 kickstarted Sega's dominance (at the time) over its competition. It is still widely considered to be one of (if not the) best Sonic game by fans.
Digital Audio Tape (DAT)

The Digital Audio Tape was a digital music format invented in 1987. It was meant as the digital replacement to cassettes as the CD was a digital replacement to the aging record format. When Sony unveiled it, it was met with criticism due to loony industry elitists believing it could kill the recording business. While it would certainly be wrong for the person who recorded the music to sell the tapes, simply recording them and using them for home listening isn't infringement on any copyrights. The format was discontinued in 2005.
New Super Mario Bros.

the game's cover art

New Super Mario Bros. is a game released by Nintendo for the DS in 2006.

## Gameplay

The game is a 2D platformer in which you make it from point A to point B. At the end of each world, you fight a boss.

## Reception

The game was well-received, becoming one of the bestselling games for the DS. The main criticism is the game's name, which has been noted as aging poorly due to the game being released over a decade ago as of 2018.
Nintendo Entertainment System

the original toaster model

The Nintendo Entertainment System is a game console that was introduced in 1985. It was simply a redesign of the Famicom, a 1983 Japanese console, for countries outside Japan.

   The system was discontinued in 1995 when 16-bit and 32-bit graphics had become standards.

## NES Toploader

There were two models in the system's decade-long lifespan, the original and NES-101. The original model is the more iconic design, nicknamed the "toaster" model due to its loading mechanism, and 101 is simply a top-loading redesign. The pros to it is that it does not have the pin connector like the original (which was notorious for the "blinking light" issue), it was smaller and lighter, the controllers are arguably better designed (image), and that the older controllers and accessories were compatible. However, the cons are that there is no LED to signify when the console is on, there is only an RF connector (unless it is a rarer AV version or it is modified), and the lower picture quality due to the infamous "jailbar" vertical lines on the screen. Overall, when it comes to a choice between models, both are good systems in their own right.
Le Spycrab

**Le Spycrab**is a mindless homocidal psycho who has no regard for anyone.

## Origins

His origins are believed to be from a very large island in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, but that turned out to be untrue and he is thought to have been born in Rome in 49 BC, but kidnapped and brought to France (called Gaul at the time) and he was raised in Paris, eventually to end up in a war between the Byzantine Empire and Ottomans in 1453, which being the animalistic person that he is, killed many Byzantines without remorse.

## Immoral Actions

Here are a few of his notable animal-like actions.

* He once attempted to assassinate Sir Shrek after betraying him when he had tried to fool him into believing they were allies. Sir Shrek was not fooled for a minute and he promptly arrested Le Spycrab and executed him. However, his head rejoined with his body after being beheaded and he lived on.
* Once, he tried to kill Joy, because he believes nobody should be happy but him. With Joy tied up and at gunpoint, Sadness snuck behind Le Spycrab and knocked him off his feet. Then, Sadness freed Joy and she quickly grabbed her bag of core memories that Le Spycrab was extracting energy from. Le Spycrab was then locked in his factory, and 10 minutes after the memories were removed from the machine, the pressure became too much and the nuclear power plant that required the intense energy melted down, exploding within 7 seconds, which somehow Le Spycrab survived.
* Shrek was an attempted kill by Le Spycrab. However, while Shrek wasn't paying attention, Le Spycrab pulled out his knife, and Shrek instantly turned around and shot him in the chest, which nearly caused him to die. He survived, however, for many more years.

Laserdisc

Laserdisc was an analog optical disc video format introduced in 1978. Originally known as Discovision, it went through several name changes before Laserdisc was finally settled upon. The technology was marketed as the future come to life, and it really was. The disc used laser optical technology, something that had never been used before the 1970s to store information. There was also a remote that could be used to pause and play, which was nothing new, but there was a dial that could be used to manually fast forward, rewind, or even navigate frame-by-frame. The quality was also ridiculously high for the time, even compared to Betamax, one of the format's competitors. So, if the format was so advanced, why did it never take off?

As with everything man-made, it had its certain set of issues. First of all, the discs were very expensive - about $30 per movie, compared to VHS at about $16 per movie. The discs were also very large, the same size as a 33 1/3 vinyl LP. The discs could not be recorded to as well, unlike the magnetic tape formats at the time. The biggest issue, however, was the fact that the discs could only hold 30 to 60 minutes of video, so each movie was packaged and sold on up to 6 discs for a 2-hour movie. The inconvenient truth was that once the disc ended, the people watching would have to flip the disc, and occasionally change the disc. However, VHS could hold up to 2 hours of video per tape, and Betamax could hold 1 hour per tape. In the end, Laserdisc was simply light years ahead of its time, which combined with its many issues, caused it to be forgotten by the time the 1990s arrived. However, the greatest point of notability for Laserdisc is that it paved the way for successful digital optical disc technologies, such as the CD, DVD, HD-DVD, and Blu-Ray.

On a slightly unrelated note, they were later used in the Pioneer LaserActive, a video game console, to produce FMV games such as Space Ace, among others. Needless to say, it was a failure.
Vectrex

the GCE Vectrex

The Vectrex was a cartridge-based game console that used vector graphics and did not need to be connected to a TV, but was not portable due to requiring AC power. It was released in 1982, was unsuccessful and was discontinued in 1984. Despite this, it has regained popularity today and is sometimes called "the Dreamcast of the '80s," due to it being a good console but not selling very well.
Tefifon

Tefifon is an analog record-tape hybrid format introduced in the 1950s in Germany. It was an infinite loop cartridge, but the "tape" was actually Flexi Disc-like material that had sound recorded onto it just like a record and read with a stylus. The format was discontinued in the 1960s, but the players and tapes that remain are often in outstanding condition and have relatively high fidelity to other tape formats of the time.
Intec Interact

The Intec Interact is a ripoff of the Nintendo Wii made by an unknown company using the name of Intec, a company known for making peripherals for the DS. It is similar to the Nintendo Polystation, where it is advertised as being made by a certain company, but it actually wasn't. The Interact was cartridge-based, had graphics that looked pre-Genesis, and had fake motion controls on a soccer game, as shown by ProJared in his review of it.
Donkey Kong 5 : The Journey of Over Time and Space

the game's cover art

Donkey Kong 5 : The Journey of Over Time and Space (yes, that is the real title) is a bootleg game released for the Game Boy Color sometime after 2000.

It is most known for the terrible engrish in its story and ending. They are as follows.

*"The pretty and virtuous girl Sodoma was Donkey Kong's friend, she was the spirit what charge of all the plant in the world, she distributed sunlight air and water to each plant everyday, so that they could grow up healthy and strongly......*

*But the lombado lived in the darksome comer didn't like the darksome comer didn't like the world full of green grass and bloomy flower. So the evil lonbado abducted Sodoma, to amest the growth of the life. From then on......*

*The flower bloomed no longer, and the tree blasted slowly......the banana and the wild fruit the Donkey Kong loved had been lacked too. The world became desolate at once......*

*There were no any thing to eat, Donkey Kong felt very hungry, and the famine made him thinner and thinner, finally he became a monkey.*

*The poor Donkey Kong can but left the forest, begun his difficult joumey to search for food and save Sodoma......"*

Also, the ending text...

*"Donkey Kong came through all kinds of difficulties, conquered Lonbadoand saved Sodoma finally, so, the world resumed livingness from then on......"*

As you can see, there are multiple english errors in the text, due to being lazily translated from Chinese, probably in Google Translate or another crappy translator.

## Gameplay

The gameplay itself is just ripped straight from Mario. It is possibly a hack of Super Mario Bros. Deluxe or Super Mario Land, but this is unlikely.
Shrek the Almighty Ogrelord

Shrek's profile picture

**Shrek the Almighty Ogrelord** is a YouTube channel created by Shrek under Sir Shrek's email address. He gave it to Sir Shrek to run as a second channel to DiamondMinerStudios. It's both a place for shitposting and uploading isolated scenes from DiamondMinerStudios videos, footage from cancelled uploads, or occasional YTPs (which are usually shorter in length than ones on the DiamondMinerStudios channel). It is a major part of the Sir Shrek Network.
Super Mario World 2 : Yoshi's Island

the game's cover art

Super Mario World 2 : Yoshi's Island is a platforming game developed and released by Nintendo in 1995. It is a prequel to the entire Mario series.

## Gameplay

The gameplay is very similar to the first Super Mario World, which means it is a 2D platformer that you have to reach the end of each level. It's a much longer game than Super Mario World, since the levels are much more complex.

## Reception

The game was very well-received, becoming the eighth best-selling game for the SNES. It was praised for its visuals, music, and gameplay, but criticized for the crying baby Mario, similarly to how Kiddy Kong was a point of criticism in Donkey Kong Country 3.
MiniDisc

MiniDisc is a digital optical disc format used for music recording and playback. It is a Sony format introduced in the mid-1990s, meant to compete with Phillips' DCC. It won, and it also unexpectedly competed with Fidelipac for use in radio stations, which it also won. It was discontinued in 2013 when Sony stopped making players.
DK : Jungle Climber

the game's cover art

DK : Jungle Climber is a game developed by Paon in 2007 for the Nintendo DS. It is a sequel to DK : King of Swing.

## Gameplay

The game is very similar to the previous one, where you use the L and R buttons on the DS to swing around on platforms. This is done to beat bosses by charging at them, and to solve puzzles.

## Reception

The game was rated slightly better than the previous one, with the graphics being a point of praise. Many people call this game superior to King of Swing to this day.
Brown Box

the Brown Box

The Brown Box is an early prototype of the Magnavox Odyssey, the first ever home game console to be sold. The Brown Box was designed by Ralph Baer in 1967, and used memory cards. No working unit was known to exist, until 2012 when Ralph Baer himself made a reproduction based on the original blueprint.

## Content

Basically any genre - comedy, music, etc. - as long as it relates to records, cassettes, or music in general.
AT LP-120

the stock LP-120

The Audio-Technica LP-120 Turntable is a record player that was first introduced in 2009. It is heavily based on the famous Technics SL-1200 turntable. The LP120 is cited as a good starter turntable, a major factor being the fact that it is easy to upgrade, just like many other modern turntables.

It is a direct-drive turntable, which is often better than belt-driven ones, and has three speed options - 33, 45, and 78.

As said before, it is extremely easy to upgrade. Nearly every part can be customized - the mat is removable, the platter can be replaced, the counterweight and stylus can be upgraded, and you can even cut out the integrated pre-amplifier and use an external one if desired.

For professionals and DJs, though, many people recommend a more advanced turntable. However, many people still know it as a decent choice for more experienced people or beginners.
Super Video Home System

Super Video Home System, also known as Super VHS or S-VHS, is an analog magnetic videotape format that is essentially a higher quality variant of standard VHS. It was introduced in 1987 by the same company, JVC, a decade after the original VHS hit the market. The format was considered a commercial failure due to people not wanting to pay extra money for higher quality picture, so the format was discontinued in the early 2000s.
MPEG IMX

MPEG IMX is a digital magnetic videotape format introduced by Sony in 2001. It is one of the most recent videotape formats, only being discontinued in 2016. The format was similar to D-VHS and Sony's own Digital Betacam in the fact that it is a digital videotape that records in the MPEG format. However, due to the internet and streaming, most videotape formats including this one are simply no longer necessary, so IMX was discontinued.
Donkey Kong 3

a screenshot from the arcade version

Donkey Kong 3 is an arcade game developed and released by Nintendo in 1983.

## Gameplay

The game is a vertical shooter similarly way to Galaga or Space Invaders - hazards come down from the top of the screen, so you have to shoot them in order to survive.

## Reception

The game received mixed reactions, and most people consider this game the worst of the Donkey Kong arcade trilogy.
Super Audio CD

SACD was an upgraded version of the CD, released in 1999. It could be used with surround sound, but there was no reported difference in quality between SACD and standard CDs, therefore CDs continued on in which is just another case of a company attempting to replace one of its old tried-and-true products with something new, but failing and the old technology living on. SACD was discontinued in 2007.
Action Max

The Action Max was a game console released in 1987. It was a very strange console in that it did not use cartridges, cards, or discs, and instead uses VHS tapes. The game console was hooked up to a VCR, and the game tape was put into it. The game then showed up on the screen. The games were all shooters, so the controller was a light gun similar to the NES zapper. The console had a limited release outside the US, and was discontinued fairly quickly.
Sony Playstation 2

the Playstation 2 (left - original model, right - slim model)

The Sony Playstation 2 is a game console that was released in 2000. The console even more successful than its predecessor was, still being the bestselling console ever. Besides the graphics being upgraded, the console was one of the first to be able to play DVD movies. It was also backwards compatible with PS1 discs. The console had a later slim redesign, similar to the PS1. It was discontinued altogether in 2013.

Triad

The criminal underworld in Hong Kong groups itself in gangs known variously as Tongs or Triads. In recent years, there has been an enormous consolidation among the triads of Hong Kong, to the point where there is effectively only one, known as the Organization or the Triad.

The triad engages in normal underworld activities, such as vice, gambling, and protection. The Triad is not nearly as violent as its gangster element suggests, especially since the consolidation of power under a man known as Shao Jin.

Recently, as Chinese-western conflicts have risen, the Triad has found itself trading in information more than anything else. Hong Kong is the portal to the West of China, and many things flow through the hands of the Triad.

The Corporation's experience with the Triad has been positive, provided that the power monies and respects are paid.
Nintendo GameBoy Color

the GameBoy Color

The Nintendo GameBoy Color was a handheld game console released in 1998. It was basically a color version of the GameBoy, but it still had no backlight. It can play normal GameBoy games, and has exclusive games for it. It is similar to the Super GameBoy, an SNES addon that can play GameBoy games, in that it colorizes the games. The system was discontinued in the mid 2000s.

Mattel Intellivision

the Intellivision

The Mattel Intellivision was a cartridge-based console released in 1979. It was fairly successful and had a decently long lifespan lasting until 1990, but it never came close to besting the titans of the industry - Atari's VCS, Nintendo's NES, and Sega's Genesis. The console is also known for the Intellivoice, an addon that when used with compatible games, would generate voices. It is most famous for one of the funniest cases - "B-17 Bomber." When it starts up, the voice says, "Mattel Electronics Presents : BEEE SEVUNTEEEN BAWWWMUHHHHRR," in a South Western sounding voice. It is notable for being featured on episode 44 of the Angry Video Game Nerd. Clip of the title screen is here.
Fat Tony

The man known as **"Fat Tony"** poses as a low-level information broker and triad middle manager, but his true power and abilities lie much deeper. Records are unclear, but he worked with or for British Intelligence for decades prior to the Chinese Annexation of Hong Kong, and there is no reason to suspect that the situation has changed. Be aware that any information given to him will be in London before a day passes.

He has been a staunch friend of the Corporation since a classified operation in 1996. At no small cost to itself, the Corporation removed Fat Tony from a situation of his own creation that had gone seriously awry. He has faithfully repaid that debt many times with information and direct aid.

Fat Tony will be your guide to Hong Kong. He cannot aid you in violent situations, but his knowledge of the city and players will prove invaluable.
Betacam

Betacam is an umbrella term for the family of analog / digital magnetic videotape formats developed by Sony from 1982 to the present. The format was originally a Beta tape aimed for the professional market, but soon other types were introduced alongside the original.

## Formats

* Original Betacam - the original format of Betacam, which was a Beta tape aimed for professionals. Betamax was compatible for Betacam cameras.
* Betacam SP - an updated version with 340 vertical line resolution. It also uses a metal tape over ferric oxide, so performance was improved.
* Digital Betacam - a digital version of Betacam that outperformed both Betacam formats before it while costing less.
* Betacam SX - a digital version of Betacam SP, serving as a cheaper alternative to Digital Betacam.
* MPEG IMX - a development of the Digital Betacam format that encodes faster than the previous formats. It also uses intraframe encoding.
* HDCAM and HDCAM SR - two formats commonly used in CineAlta, a range of film camera products by Sony and HDTV productions.
Monsters/Red Zone

The following is a list of monsters that appear in the Red Zone.

## **Five Calamities**

The Five Calamities were the result of genetic modification of demonic creatures conducted by the Elvenheim and designed to harm the World Tree. The Five Calamities are basically like natural disasters for those who crossed the Red Zone. It was not something designed to be killed but rather dodged or endured. The Calamities are fueled by the **Divine Stone** Fragments which is located in its heart. The Calamities do not have a good relationship with each other and do not go to each other's territory because they are cautious of each other.

## **Cursed Survivors**

Monsters that inhabit the Toxic Sea of the Red Zone. They blocked the path that lead to the roots of the World Tree. These guys can't come out of the water due to receiving a curse from the toxic waters. If they can't hunt for people above the sea then they can just destroy their ships and pull them down. Once the people sunk they would wait for the bodies to get marinated by the toxic waste and then consume them once they get soggy enough.

## **Gertas**

Raptor-shaped beasts who lived in herds on the Middle Root of the World Tree. It greatly cares for its young to the point where the whole herd will chase them down to the ends of hell to avenge the dead.

## **Kukulja**

A giant weird looking fish which had the head of a bull and a human’s arms and legs.

## Black cow

A gigantic cow of 15 meters that could be found in the deep parts of the dungeon around the Base Root. They usually appear as mini bosses in the base root dungeon.
Coleco Telstar Arcade

the Telstar Arcade

The Coleco Telstar Arcade was a cartridge-based game console released in 1977. The console was one of the strangest consoles ever released, combining a steering wheel, gun, and Pong controllers on each of the three sides of a triangular-shaped console, and the cartridges are metal triangles that snap on the top. The console was unsuccessful and therefore forgotten.
Magnavox Odyssey

the Odyssey

The Magnavox Odyssey was a game console released in 1972, making it the first ever home console to be sold. It was designed by Ralph Baer, based on his "Brown Box" blueprint from 1967. The games were all on memory cards that you would insert on the top of the console. Of course it had to be hooked up to the TV first. The video connector is a strange specimen, not an RF connector like most at the time. This forces the use of a box with a UHF connector, which screws on the back of the TV. This kind of connector has only been seen on two consoles - the Odyssey and the Wonder Wizard, which was a "Pong console" built from an Odyssey's circuit board. Anyways, the Odyssey's games were not like most games today - it was just two dots moving around a blank blue screen. There were overlays for the TV screen which corresponded to a certain game, which were each programmed slightly different from each other. There were games such as Tennis, Football, a haunted house game, and a "cat vs. mouse" game. The last thing about it is the controllers and peripherals. The controllers are strange boxes with two knobs on each side, which is strange even for the 1970s. There was also a gun made for the console, which very closely resembles a real rifle. While it may not seem like much today, the Odyssey was a huge innovation back in 1972 because no one had even tried something like this.
Rio Police

The Rio Police have been born anew over last six months. Under the capable leadership of Captain Tonaverron, the Police have shed their earlier reputation as an inert and corrupt force. Now, they patrol the streets aggressively, use the latest law-enforcement techniques, and, most importantly, demand and maintain a level of respect from the average Rio citizen. In short, they have a sterling reputation, the first serious blow to which was the protest that turned deadly.

The combat potential of the Rio Police is strong. The standard patrol officer, or Cop, is armed with an automatic pistol and has received reasonable training in its use. The more experienced officers are promoted to Detective, and trained in the use of military assault weapons, which are intended primarily to intimidate the populace but add significant deterring power.

With sufficient warning, however, the Rio Police can call upon a deadly combatant. A Sniper is not useful in all situations, especially quick-moving tactical environments. But when a Sniper is given the opportunity to line up a shot, the results are usually final.
Compact Disc

A Compact Disc, known as simply a CD, is one of the first optical disc formats and one of if not the first digital music format. The format was first introduced in 1982 and managed to take the industry by storm because it was more versatile than cassettes or records.

In the 1990s, CDs became part of a large scandal involving the MP3 file format which is one of the factors that led to its eventual end in production. Another factor was the inferior quality to cassettes and lack of the overall feel-good factor of records. They quickly became obsolete when digital download music was introduced, basically eliminating the need for physical formats.

Another thing to mention, this format is what inspired disc-based video game consoles in the 1990s, which gradually replaced cartridge-based systems. Many of these consoles could double as CD players, which was good because CD players were expensive in the '90s.
BSA

The Brazilian Space Agency has a dedicated security staff, all recruited and trained separately from other government forces. These men report directly and only to the Minister of Space Bento Altacia.

Altacia's political power is clear when this force is reviewed. While the bulk of these are poorly trained guards, the force boasts some high technology. The real wonder is that this force exists at all. If Altacia were not such a close friend of the Corporation, there would be worries about what is essentially a private army in a major city.

For all that, combat potential as moderate to low. The usual BSA trooper is actually a minimum wage Security Guard. These men are armed with automatic pistols, but no real combat training. They are backed up with Soldiers hand-picked from the Brazilian army, who have assault rifles and the training to match.

The BSA also makes use of Spooks from the civilian intelligence agencies of Brazil. The actual operational effectiveness of these units is unknown, but sources indicate that in addition to a pistol, the Spooks are equipped with man-portable millimeter-wave radar, which would be very useful in a tight CQB environment.
Evanov

**General Evanov** is one of the few Russian Generals to have compiled a successful combat record in the past two decades. He served as a young staff officer in the Afghanistan actions with distinction, but it was in the unending counterrevolutionary actions in Chechnya and Dagestan that he gained the respect and gratitude of the Kremlin. Smart tactical leadership could not reverse the strategic errors made by his commanders, however, and Evanov lost both a leg and a son to the Chechen rebels.

In gratitude and example, the Kremlin gave Evanov his stars and put him out to pasture in a prestigious and quiet post: Baikonur. Here, Evanov presides over one of the few remaining Russian Army units that enjoy regular pay and supplies. Of course, this logistical certitude originates more from the Corporation and the Kazakhs than from Moscow.

Official records and interviews with subordinates indicate that Evanov is a strong fatherly figure to his troops. His record is clear and his personal morale high. As commander of the local security forces, Evanov may be entrusted with limited local operational knowledge of your activities.
Donkey Konga

the game's cover art

Donkey Konga is a rhythm game developed by Namco and released by Nintendo in 2003.

## Gameplay

You can select from various songs and play them using the DK Bongos controller.

## Reception

The game received generally mixed reviews, being criticized for its huge departure from the series' previous status as platformers.
Novana

**Father Novana** is the commonly accepted name for the leader of the Order of Light. He is believed to be one Hector Zantana Martinez, a Mexican national with long-term ties to the United States DEA and Department of Justice, Immigration Services.

After a serious snafu some time in the early eighties, Novana severed all North American ties and traveled to South America. *(All relevant DEA files are sealed and classified.)* His official Order of Light biography indicates that he sought a spiritual light in the darkness of the jungles of Brazil, which he found in the Books of Light in an abandoned ancient temple near the headwaters of the Amazon. Unofficial sources within the American DEA indicate that he tracked a drug cartel to Columbia on a personal vendetta, was severely wounded and left for dead over the Brazilian border.

Novana leads a powerful religious movement in the city of Rio de Janeiro. While his followers are not numerous, they are intense, and all seem to owe a personal allegiance to Novana himself. Novana is outspoken in local and national politics, condemning both the endemic poverty and drug-ridden streets of the lower class of Rio.

Pattern analysis of Novana's activities indicates an agile and direct manipulator of situations. He will attempt to direct your every move. None of his intentions seems contrary to Corporate policies other than a general anti-technology stance. He knows more about Rio than any Corporate asset. Lean upon him for advice and guidance while operating in Rio.
