Pokemon: BEN Version

[Kairu]

I had a hard time deciding where this should go. Main summary: I found an article where a guy found a different version of Pokemon Red/Blue. This was long before "Pokemon: Black" came out, which is why it was titled as such in the article. But read it through, it's rather morbid and intense (for me anyways) and convey what you think here.

Oh, I know this. My friend and I stumbled upon it about....few months after or before Pokemon Black, the 5th generation game came out. This didn't scare me as much as BEN, but I had a slight fear of Lavender Town. But oddly, after reading that, I spent quite some time in Lavender Town just listening the music and remembering.

But one question has always remained in my mind....who made it, and what message were they trying to send?

[Kairu]

I agree. Who and why are probably the biggest things I gather from it. I would like to know. Also, why is it that one person? Were they targeted? Or was it random, like BEN?

no where near as creepy as Ben, that's for sure. however it was kinda creepy and it makes you question a lot of things about the hacked game thing.

Showing everyone you cursed... man, that's harsh.
Also REALLY creepy.

Remember, BEN was just a trick that person played. It wasn't an actual hacked game.

Now that that's out of the way, I have to agree with mids that BEN was creepier. The might just be because it had video with it, though.
I like this, though. I used to be scared by Lavender Town when I first played the series, but I eventually learned to love its creepiness, like I have with almost everything that used to scare me. Now with this story attached, I'm going to make a trip over there and just sit there for awhile and listen.

If you don't hear from me for a day, do what you like with my charries.

Brb never playing Pokemon Red

Ammy, don't hate on Pokemon Red because of this. It's a hacked cartridge that this guy happened to have discovered/bought. My copy of Pokemon Red is still my favorite. I love it to death, and always will. As for BEN, it was actually a hacked cartridge. It doesn't negate the fact that it was a trick, but in order to get the video, you need a hacked version. As there is no video to legitimize this story, it could be just that, a story with a photoshopped cartridge image. But, however, I believe that this story is too dang creepy to simply "make up" and sound so real.

I know, I definatly plan to play each Gen, I was being sarcastic.
