My best attempt at bringing Pepsiman back into the ring...

Friend told me details on Pepsiman's origins. Marketers were pushing for having it all Americanized/Westernized to stand out in Japan, thus all the commercials and the game in English and take place in the US [not too far off, considering the countless American actors that pop into Japanese commercials]. The design (according to wikipedia) that Canadian comic artist Travis Charest created the design, though it's atypical of some of his art.

Is this game to good to be a YWK article? It was one of the first Playstation games I emulated, don't ask me why or how. I guess it is kind of fun. But so surreal, weird, wacky and-minimalist.

Too solid to be kusoge, but there is a similar title for the system called "Oh no!" that totally is YWK material.

Fun fact!
The writer and creator of Nine Persons, Nine Hours, Nine Doors, Virtue's Last Reward, and various other trippy sci-fi visual novels (and this year's anime Punchline, which was partly about a guy getting super powers by looking at panties and then was actually about time travel, human experimentation, and a planet destroying meteor, which is getting a game next year or so) actually did graphics work on this game. I wish he was the writer because that would have explained so much.

It's definitely kusoge, but too good to mock - it's too focused to really stand alone as a game, but the graphics and the presentation are just so good it pushes it out of the "bad kusoge" range and into "awesome."

This game is so unlike all other advertisement games. While most games of this kind just make you play the mascot, this one absolutely bombards you with advertisement on every milimeter of the game.

This game is basically the best sequel to Metro Cross that Namco never made.

It doesn't look like a kusoge to me. It looks pretty awesome. It's really expensive second-hand sadly. I was planning on burning this on a disc to play on my PSX a while ago but for some reason never got around to it.
Ironically I drank a glass of Coca Cola reading this article.

I just wanna know who'd win in a fight between Coca-Cola Kid and Pepsiman.
(Incidentally, Coca-Cola Kid is a pretty OK game. Maybe somebody should write about it.)
