Bob's Game

Bob's Game. Made by one person over 5 years, totaling 15,000 hours. Targeted to be released for the DS, but still looking desperately for a publisher, Bob has locked himself in his room and initiated a Japanese-style Tensai protest.

I don't know what's more arrogant. The fact that this guy EXPECTS Nintendo just to publish his game solely because he spent so much time on it, the horribly arrogant posts on his website derailing famous game designers and Nintendo, or his little protest of locking himself in his room until he gets a devkit from Nintendo.
Yeah, he showed some videos, and honestly the game doesn't look good. It's a bunch of walking around and basically solving stupid fetch quests. An RPG without battles, which he seemed to be proud of.

Some of the ideas he claims are revolutionary aren't really. Having 8304803984093 characters doesn't amount to jack shit if the game sucks already and is basically a talk-to-NPCs-fest.

Here's some fun quotes from his viral-ad like "blog".
"ME, NINTENDO.
I DEMAND THE SDK- AND IF YOU DO NOT OBEY I WILL TAKE MY REVENGE, YOU MISERABLE FOOLS!
I WILL RUN YOUR PATHETIC LITTLE COMPANY INTO THE GROUND AND SPIT ON THE SMOLDERING REMAINS!
I WILL CRUSH YOU INTO DUST AND FLUSH AWAY THE ASHES LIKE ANY OTHER FILTH! ROTTING, PUTRID SEWAGE- THAT'S ALL YOU ARE!"

"There is nobody like me. I have created the entire game, start to finish.
I am far better than Miyamoto, Itoi, Kojima, Carmack, and Wright COMBINED.
NONE of these "designers" could create the entire thing if their lives depended on it!
They rely on the assistance of others- and take all the credit. They don't even deserve their titles! I have bested them all by far."

""bob's game" is a game by ONE PERSON, and it's one of the GREATEST GAMES EVER MADE- if not THE BEST.
I stand alone on a mountain no other has even dared to climb. I have swam across the ocean only cruise ships could cross.
I have walked through the desert of no return. I have stepped in the footprints of none, a path never taken.
I have MADE HISTORY, and history cannot be undone. It's too late, Nintendo.

No man has ever accomplished what I have accomplished at 25 years old- it's no wonder you fear accepting this truth!
My work has humiliated your teams of engineers. One young man- singlehandedly- has made their lifetime of work seem like child's play.
How can they possibly compete with such overwhelming skill? It's not even fair, is it? That's too bad, Nintendo. I'm real, and I'm here.
You can't ignore me forever. I AM RIGHT, AND IT WILL WORK.

I am the GREATEST GAME DEVELOPER THAT EVER LIVED.
I am a GENIUS, and I will be around for the next 40 years- eating away at your company until it exists no longer.
I will find way after way to slowly destroy your bottom line, and your business will fail.
The name NINTENDO will be forgotten, a discarded husk like so many others.
"bob's game" will live on FOREVER.

THOSE WHO DOUBT ME- YOU WILL BE PROVEN WRONG.
IN TIME THE TRUTH WILL PREVAIL.
PREPARE TO EAT YOUR WORDS.

YES, I AM COMPLETELY SERIOUS!

WHO'S TAKING NAMES NOW, REGGIE?! "

All of that hate is NOT gonna get you a publisher, jackass. I've spent 5+ years working on a game myself that I READILY ADMIT isn't that great, and I don't expect jack squat from it. I just made it for fun. That's what he should be doing, hell with all the popularity he's getting now it would get a lot of downloads. Look at what happened with Studio Pixel's Cave Story: a game created by one person for FREE, with no intentions of profiting from it, and now that game will be released on the Wii virtual console.
