Tales of Dysentery



Send that to them, they don't care what the words mean and it does have a nice ring to it.  Let's make this happen in '09

It has to contain Li'l Jon telling Stephanie to rub that shit and grab his dick (because it's hers, bitch) or else I'm not playing it.

I was about to warn him for it too but that video is pretty hilarious.
Edited now. Sorry, last time I was active on here (freakin' years ago) comments as offensive as that used to be the norm :P

They do make catchy songs. Here's the awesome tune Psi is referring to.

As far as game play goes, I figure the objective of the game will be keeping kids active. So wii is the ideal console here. Like a few people have said, it's probably going to be mini-games that get increasingly more difficult. It's music will be great though.
:D

You Are a Pirate has pretty much burrowed its way into internet culture.

I kinda like Lazytown as far as kid shows go; it doesn't assume your kid has no brain. That being said this will probably be some terrible licensed shovelware that is instantly forgettable.

What happened to the "eC"(early childhood) back in the 90s, giving it an "E" rating makes no sense :|

Aslong as I get to be a pirate.
A tool is a tool regardless. I mean if you suck, you suck, and not even the most perfect tool could save you. And if your damn good then even with the worst tool ever conceived you could chug out some high quality shit.

they still use the ec rating for games, i've seen games on shelves with them. maybe the guys making it want it to be more widely purchased. the only real difference between ec and e rated games is the producers kinda going hey esrb this is for kids give us an ec and the esrb goes ok, it qualifies no bad language, possibly semieducational.

i mean as far as like offensive content goes. comic mischief is a dumb category that doesn't really exist because hey it's a game comic mischief just basically means funny conflict, and okay.

basically e rated games can have mild language and violence, ec has to be non-violent with no bad words.

also i'm pretty sure ka doesn't exist anymore but that's what i think this would go for.

The only EC games I can remember are things like Elmo teaching ABC's (don't remember the exact title but I had this for the NES) and other games targeted towards really really small children.  Lazytown is targeted towards children, but it's targeted towards generally older children, more in the I guess 6-10 range.  I don't know if that's exactly the age group that watches it but that was the general idea.  EC means more a long the lines of kids as young as 3 (according to the site), whereas E is more 6 and up.  I think it might take into account how difficult the game is, obviously a game meant for kids 6+ isn't going to be very enjoyable to a 3 year old.  It's supposed to be a general indicator to parents, not just "what are the bad things in this game".

what if it's for wiifit
  • Group: Guest
Yeah. I agree with the other people here: the only way this could conceivably work is if it's a wii fit game. There's not really anything else in lazytown that would be much fun in a videogame anyway.

The big problem with it even if it was on Wii fit is that Magnus always intended it to encourage kids to play outside as much as possible, whereas this would just keep them inside longer than an episode of the show would.

By watching TV? Yea that makes sense


75% of the stuff we did outside was based on what we saw on TV. From playing Bowser VS Mario on the jungle gym, to fighting over the role of Green Ranger when playing Power Rangers. So much fun can be derived from television as a kid. It gives the imagination something to use when they're being more active.

I thought something of what you said when I saw how my buddy's sister's kids were being raised (kid tv shows on most of the day). But now I see them, they hardly pay the tv much attention. It's like background noise to them while they run around with toys.
Dunno though, is there children out there that sit on their ass all day watching tv? This seems impossible to me. Too much energy, and more interesting things to do for kids.

...are there kids who sit around doing nothing...

Much of the increased risk is tied to the continued increase in childhood obesity, which the heart association said is around 17 percent of all children aged 6 to 19. Having a body-mass index at or above the 95th percentile for the child's age is considered being obese.

and that's OBESE, not overweight.

I've definitely seen some kids that really do just sit around watching TV or playing video games, it is really sad!

But yeah I do agree with the "TV as just background noise", me and my neighbor would turn on the TV to watch Pokemon but we'd be lucky if we finished the episode before running outside to play Team Rocket (this was our favorite game), I also remember playing Power Rangers way younger than that, the TV was always on but we were rarely watching it (I think we did watch at least most of Pokemon because we were older so we had the attention span for it a little more).  And you know, even when we'd play our gameboys we usually played outside!  Hell, we even tried playing our gameboys on the trampoline so that we could do both until we realized that was really hard to do.  We were always going back and forth between playing video games and playing outside, but nowadays a lot of kids JUST sit inside and play video games or watch TV.  It's sad, that's all there is to it.

Hot damn! I blame the parents though, before the addictive tv and games. Parents should motivate playing outside. But, heh, Monkey See Monkey Do, I guess.

I can't believe we actually have people here who are gonna get all OG about Lazytown. Really it's about money, nobody gives a shit about the kids, whom I doubt care whether a video game contradicts the creator's intentions.
