Title: Les Miserables: The Fighting Game
Post by: Ragnar on August 27, 2008, 05:17:36 am: http://www.lesmisgame.com/arm_joe.html

the title pretty much explains everything

also I found this through some kind of wiki on weird Japanese things

also if you click on "home" there's some other Les Miserables game being made but it looks like one of those gay Sierra adventure games

also is it just me or does this seem like the game Velfarre was born to play

Les Miserables: The Fighting Game

Seriously though, playing as Thernadier sounds awesome. If I made this game I'd have an inn themed level with traps in it and a full chorus singing his awesome song.

The fighting game is just weird, I'm going to download it just to see if you can be that kid who gets shot collecting ammo outside the barricade (what the hell was his name?)

Post by: Mateui on August 27, 2008, 07:35:01 pm: I love Les Mis!

I really want to beat up Cosette (ugh I hate her) with Eponine (<3). Also, Thénardier looks awesome to play as - very comical.

Gavroche.

Post by: Raimiette on August 27, 2008, 09:27:10 pm: Thanks!

I hate Cosette too! I also hate Marius because he's a winy little bastard who (if there was really any justice) should have been the first to die...

I do love Enjorlas though...he's so manly and proud.

Why the name "arm Joe?" Because in Japan, Les Misérables is called Ah, Mujou (”ah, cruelty” or "no mercy") which sounds like "arm Joe."

The game is a bit unbalanced (the end boss is insane, but can be "cheaped" by some characters), but it's still fun and I like the setting. :P

The Cardinal's super attack will be him holding up a sheet of paper and like assassins come to attack.
Porthos will drink a lot too.
