Idea for a game

Postby Ataru Moroboshi » 19 years ago

The last image of Astro waving at Photoshop the picture game has made me thing of something. Being a family friendly forum, why don't make a quite classical, somewhat "educative" game:" Where's Astro?"

In would consist on putting a pic of Astro in a photo of some well-known part of the world (monument, landscape...), and people would have to guess where in the world is Astro (unlike Waldo/Wally, he won't be lost between the crowd). For example (not very well-known, but I'm kind of chauvinist ;) ):

Image

Q: Where's Astro?

A: In Barcelona

Of course, we can give clues if it's hard (Ex: He's where the 1992 Olympics took place at). It would have the same rules as Caption... and Photoshop..., and if no one guesses the place, the same person who posted the current image would post the following one :confused: I don't know if it's a good idea, but I think it's worth trying...

This sounds like it could be fun. I know that if I had a program that I could put Astro into a picture with, that I'd do some for sure. Well, that's considering that I have pictures from all over the place.

I had already made a topic called "Where's Astro" The Game. In the game you have to find an Astroboy character in a big crowd. (Similar to the game, "Where's Waldo"). That game never worked out since I didn't have GIMP back then and I am still unfamiliar on how to use it. :cry: This sounds like fun though! :)

I think the idea is terrific. Unlike "Where's Waldo," this seems a little more difficult and challenging. Lol, I'm always up for a challenge. Sign me up!

According to the hint this one should be easy for American movie viewers. I'm not sure if the movie was shown in any other countries or when it was shown.

Hint:The new Fast and the Furious movie took place here.

Tokyo, Japan. The movie you speak of, The fast and the furious, Tokyo Drift. I actually knew where that was because I could kind of read the signs (I knew it was in Japan because of the Japanese.)
Hate to do this, Latu, but it is spelled konnichiwa. But you were close! ^.^
