The laughing Man is a living example of Stand Alone Complex.
Not only did hundreds copy his works without knowing who or what he was of there own volition all claiming to be the original.
But he himself was copying a plan found floating the net without any apparent source.

Get the Stand alone complex mug.Frank West the main character of Dead rising. After years of working for newspapers Ex-photographer Frank West decided to go freelance and cover topics most journalists wouldn't even consider including riots, wars, and a myriad of other topics.
In addition Frank West fought his way through the first (official) zombie out break inside of the Willamette mall in Colorado after the city was quarantined, discovered the culprit behind the outbreak, killed numerous insane mall goers who'd succumbed to the stress of a zombie outbreak and became a world famous celebrity.
Unknown to the public until late in his fame Frank West was infected by the zombies during his time in the mall and became dependent on the drug zombrex which temporarily prevents the zombification process and if taken every 24hours can keep an infected person alive indefinitely.
During the events of Dead Rising 2: off the record (alternate but equal version of DR 2) Frank is seen fallen from glory and now a disgraced former celebrity playing on the game show Terror is reality (a gore fest centered around slaughtering zombies) to make money to keep himself in zombrex. Frank isn't a man who can be kept down however and went on to discover the truth behind phenotrans the sole producer of zombrex, Terror is reality, and the numerous outbreaks since the Willamette mall incident including the events at Fortune City where both Dead Rising 2's take place.

Get the Frank West mug.A Japanese indie game focused around running the kind of item shop present in the majority of RPG games.
The plot focuses on a young girl named Recette Lemongrass who's father suddenly decided to become an adventurer and went off to fight a dragon on top of a volcano... yeah not the best parenting.
Not long after his disappearence a loan shark fairy named tear shows up to start collection on an outstanding debt from Recette's father. Recette being unable to pay the debt believes she will have to forfeit the house so Tear strikes her a deal. They convert the first floor of her house into an item shop which has regular payments for the debt cut from it's profits.
As far as gameplay goes this is a unique and interesting experience mixing a haggling system and item crafting with some RPG dungeon areas which the player can loot for goods to sell with the help of adventurers. Available in English on steam this 2006 game is rapidly gaining popularity and has been reviewed by a few reasonable large names on youtube including Jesse Cox and is well worth the time it takes to play.

Get the Recettear mug.A digital download system based on auto-updates, friends-lists, and no DRM.
Although not perfect it's a much better option then Gamestop and dealing with the asshole customers rip off resales, cheap ass trade in values that rip you off at every possible opportunity.
Steam was created by valve to sell there products along with indie products and occasionally other stuff. Many people claim that Steam is only around to line valves pockets but really they are just upset by the bugs and mistakes valve made with the program rather then having really issues with it.
Despite it's wonderful usage and application Steam has it's fair share of faults. Mainly slow processing which can delay downloads massively, auto-updates without any notification, and the occasional bugs and glitches.
Despite this Steam is often regarded as a massively useful program and a god send because of it's lack of pointless DRM which most other digital download services are plagued with. It also has often sales which can give a great product away at a great price.

Get the Steam mug.A for of heart, lung, stomach, brain, kidney, ect. cancer that can only be contracted from exposure to chrono radiation. Chrono radiation itself can only be found on board and in every nook and cranny of time machines. The truth is time travel is real and possible but will cause super cancer at some point in the travelers life be it immediately after or 12 months before. Due to it's extremely unpredictable nature time travel has been all but outlawed to prevent spread of Super cancer
Doc: Hey martey I went to a rejuvenation clinic. They got me all fixed up change of blood, new kidney, they even cured my super cancer
Marty: Super cancer?
Doc: Yeah, side effect of time travel. Of course you ALWAYS wore your lead-lined suit in the time machine right?
Marty: SHIT

Get the Super cancer mug.The long delayed sequel to Duke nukem 3D. It was lost in development for over 12 years but when it finally came out it essentially killed the Duke Nukem franchise.
It seems very unlikely that anyone other then hardcore Duke Nukem fans will take much pleasure in this mess of a game and even then only for the nostalgia value of it.
It almost feels like Gearbox, the game company that obtained the rights and "finished" the game, went back threw out all 12 years of previous work and slapped together a 2-bit halo knockoff to rip off the old fanbase and ruin Duke for the new fanbase.
Featuring filler content, platforming puzzles, and crappy game mechanics this is truly a complete mess. It also crossed the very big line between dirty humor and stupid humor more times then I can count. Between the rape jokes and the shit throw (i kid you not it's really in there) it's just not worth the time to play, not to mention the load times are awful even on a high end gaming PC.
They somehow managed to make it to sexist even for Duke, even for DUKE. I didn't even know that was possible.
Another Duke Nukem game has been announced by gearbox, hopefully it will be a masterpiece that saves the franchise but after this god awful performance it's doubtful
