An interesting pic I found...

Here, take a look at this...

We all know its a fake, but it is interesting nonetheless.

If only there was someone here that could read Japanese, I would love to see what that said. But since we cant read it, we might as well take a look at it. The pics are interesting, yet quite hard to make out from a distance. And there also seems to be a pic in the very background of the entire pic.

What do u all think?

Also what I noticed. In fact, I found this pic ages ago, its been on my PC for ages, and I came across it just before.

Also, when u say old, are u saying you've seen it before and its an old pic or are u generally saying its old (cause of the Squaresoft logo)?

Yes to both. I've seen this before and it's old because of the Squaresoft logo...Plus, we'd know much more about the game before we saw any kind of advertising for it like this...Those things are some of the last things to be worked out...It's like the stupid people who make fake box art...who do they hope to fool?

Hey! It certainly didnt fool me! It just caught me off guard when I first saw it. Its just interesting to see how far some ppl will go to actually try and trick ppl into thinking there is a real game out there. I still wish I knew what the writing said though.

It's possible that it's A) random Japanese symbols, B) taken from another Chrono game, or C) telling whoever's reading it that they're a git

I'd most likely go for A or B, seeing as B has been done before. Heck, C is probably likely as well.

Not by basis no. 24 of the Rules of the Internet, which clearly states that no one on the Internet who's trying to be cool, clever and/or funny is original. See? Just like this thing I just did? Totally not original.

Isn't the photo in the background the Dragon Tear or something?

Anyway, I have a friend who lives in Japan so I showed it to her and she said it was someone's ad asking for help to make the game! It asks for art designers and the like.

It's definitely fake, as it is "Chrono Brake" in Japan.

Fake. And yea, it's asking for assistance in making the game a reality.
