Explanation[edit | edit source]

The author makes reference to 462: Garfield Plus Beats in the Beat Panel, in which he put three video game characters into a single panel. Here, he edited the dialogue so every word and thought balloon contains a video game reference. Most are video game titles (Amnesia, Cool Spot, and Dark Cloud), but one is a bit of dialogue ("What you say?") from the intro to Zero Wing, a game mainly known for the broken English of the intro, which many people were exposed to via the "All Your Base" Flash video.

The author writes:[edit | edit source]

Hey, remember when I put three video game references in one mashup? I've upped the ante. (Though technically, one could be considered an advertising reference, given that the game was named after the product's mascot.)

(Also, I'm not stuffing them all in the same panel.)
