: Press Start 2, video game parody movie
: Tadanori Oyama March 19, 2011, 05:06:25 PM

I know nobody plays video games here at RPPR, their far too busy with pen and paper gaming. But if you have friends who play video games than consider telling them about the best video game parody movie made by human hands (possibly robots could do it better, I haven't found a robot made version yet).

If you haven't seen Press Start 1 than I highly recommend it as well since this movie is a direct sequel.

I definitely have to look into this, especially after seeing the cover with "(Press Start 4 in Japan)"...

The guys who made the movie, Ed Glaser, is a film student (along with lot of his friends). He also does a webseries called "Deja View" about remade movies from other countries. He's also a part of Channel Awesome along with guys like the Nostalga Critic, the Spooney One, Angry Joe, Linkara, and Bennett the Sage.

His main site is here: http://www.darkmaze.com/

If your interested in the movie I'd suggest watching some of the animated web series that supports the plotline, Press Start Adventures. http://www.darkmaze.com/pressstartadventures/
