Bulls**t.

Darn, I don't get it. :(

Me neither.....at first. But when I learned about him....I'll admit, it freaked me out.

His name is Giygas and he's the final boss of the SNES game Earthbound. You can learn more about him from these links:

Scary little fetus boss.
At least kids are too young to know what's going on.. or are they..?
The music was scary/weird though.

In all honesty, this is -in it's purest form- a mindf**k boss. Remember, the game was rated E (back then, it was K-A) and this thing came out of nowhere and the fact that when you kill it, it 'kills' your TV too- you will never be able to go to sleep at night after this.

Unfortunately, I didn't have the luck of playing it since I was born and raised in the PSX era so I'm just imagining what kids went through when they beat him.

In the comments section of this YouTube video, you'll hear more experiences that people went through:

It turns out the movie he had witnessed was not featuring a rape but murder, and he himself had admited that his memory of it was fuzzy, but he wanted to create a game character/boss that would horrify people in the same way he felt terror when viewing the movie as a child.

If this is true, it's kind of terrible of the guy to want other people to experience it too.

And for those who are interested, you should read what
AkumaUchitoru said about the game. I feel sorry for him.

I'm really interested in the story line of the game, too bad I didn't play it (or maybe I was lucky enough to not play it). I read in one of the videos about Giygas that everything that the character "Pokey" was saying in the game was all a lie. Just wondering what that was all about, but I guess I could google it some other time.. or if anyone would like to explain for me, that'd be nice too :P

So yeah, thanks Neo for creeping us out! :D

-turns back on Owl City music- Happy happy happy thoughts.

It IS true. It's fact.

So yeah, thanks Neo for creeping us out! :D

Hey, I wasn't the one who saw a murder scene and created this mindf**k of a character. However, this character (and others as well!) just proves one thing:

Nintendo doesn't f**k around. They can really create some of the scariest, most disturbing things you've ever seen, or heard.

Well said, dude.

Nintendo is like a cute little puppy- a puppy that can rip out your arm and eat it if it wants to. Aww, so cute! XD

They ditched that image yyyyyyeaaaaars ago.

But still mostly prevalent during the SNES era, admittedly.

You know what? That sucks.

I want Nintendo to scare me again and the last time that happen was in that T-Rex boss fight in StarFox Adventures.

This wasn't even made by Nintendo.
Nintendo's more dark now, in my opinion.
