>investigator troves through gigabytes worth of usenet and forum posts to disprove the existence of an arcade cabinet
how does it feel to know that 20 years from now a shitpost you've made on 4chan could be the subject of a major investigation?
Hi Ahoy!
>made up a huge urban legend and is still defending that is true
Is Kurt "That kid" incarnate?
>his most insightful video is for a game that doesn't fucking exist
>>389821247
>how does it feel to know that 20 years from now a shitpost you've made on 4chan could be the subject of a major investigation?
>I dont know how anonymouse posting works
This is a new level of new fag
Haha I am also subbed to Ahoy, my friend! Here to drop the sick upvotes here because this is a well articulated article with sound investigative skills and impressive Adobe After Effects editing that everyone should see about a game that does not exist. Epic! Winrar over 9000 internets here check out the video on Youtube dot com.
>>389821247
>Polybius
>doesn't exist
Just because they destroyed all the cabinets to avoid lawsuits it doesn't mean a few of them didn't survive.
>>389821491
You ok anon?
>>389821491
This is what happens when you watch videogames instead of playing them. Everything is a tired youtube reference to you.
This generation is fucked.

Where is your video anon?
>>389821491
OP could have just randomly stumbled upon the video faggot.
I saw it in my recommended constantly today until I finally watched it, it was honestly rather interesting.
Memes aside, this guy's videos are pretty good. Well researched and seem have a lot of effort put behind them.
I didn't expect a 1 hour video, though.
>>389821526
What if they are recreations?

Isn't Polybius that secret government project from way back?
>>389821247
I find the urban myth of Polybius to be a rather interesting one, the only "arcade ghost story" if you will, and certainly one of the earliest internet creepypastas. The youtube video articulates this all well, and the video creator went out of his way to add to the story (knowing full well its bullshit) just to have fun
>>389821838
that's exactly what happened to me
youtube is finally recommending decent videos now
I don't even like shitty retro games and didn't know who this guy is before I saw the video, don't know why people are hating him

I like his Doom and Quake videos.

its nothing but a kneejerk reaction of kids pretending to be oldfags because they think its cool to act like an oldfag, while real "Oldfags" would just ignore it and move on with their lives

>hour long Ahoy video
I'm gonna open an arcade and put in a Polybius machine with an out of order sign stuck on it. Going broke is worth the joke.

>make 10 10-minute videos that are just playing a game and screaming, pick up millions of views and make thousands of dollars
understandable to hate

Yeah, they are cool.
It's interesting to learn about guns that you use in a bunch of games and their characteristics and how they are represented in each game.

How could you spend an hour on Polybius. Obviously the game doesn't exist, the hardcore Arcade Community is the most grisled bunch of autists BY FAR and scour the earth retrieving ROMs.
If Polybius existed it'd be found and we'd all be able to play it on MAME.
>>389822901
Isn't it guns and video games?
>>389823016
he figured out the guy who invented the myth and called him a fag to his face
>>389823016
yeah why didnt this fuckin retard just release a 10 second video where he says "polybius doesnt exist you fucking idiot there would obviously be a rom by now DUH"
>>389823185
Poe's law, my friend.
>>389823124
That was worth the entire time invested.
>Disproving the existence of a game that has been proven to not exist for years
Wow, I'm supposed to be impressed?
>>389823124
Even in his investigation the guy came out as "a suspect" with inconclusive evidence. He never proved that it was him that made it all up.
>>389823407
But he didn't do that
>>389823508
but he claims that he did
>>389823407
Dude, this is the thread to fellate Ahoy's ego. If you didn't like it, kindly get out and let us patrons discuss amongst ourselves.
*tips goblet to you*
Cheers.
>>389823547
When?
>>389823407
the video goes in depth on where the myth came from and how it got so big in the first place
>>389823547
where
>>389823407
You know how fucking people are, they will believe any theory with just the slightest amount of evidence. He disputed and it was entertaining. I don't see why /v/ is acting like they knew all along that Polybius wasn't real. I bet if Ahoy didn't release this video people would claim that it was real.
>>389823661
I honestly had no idea it was fake, I never even thought about it or thought about playing it. The video was very interesting to me.
>so I talked to the owner of the site which I suspect that he's the creator of the myth
>well he didn't admit anything other than the fact that he's the owner of the site and that he added every game description on it but I'll still call him the creator of it so that's it, myth busted please donate to my patreon

Who the fuck thought it was real?

It's one of about 4 decent gaming YouTube's

there are plenty of games that are known to exist and had footage recorded but were never dumped and probably never will unless an miracle happens

>>389823605
>>389823609
during the video near the end
he claims that the owner of that old arcade site is actually the one who invented the myth even though he has no actual evidence to back him up

Both of those conspiracies are long winded ones that involve a shitload smaller claims.
Polybius would never work beyond giving a seizure prone person a seizure and GIFs can do that.

post a link nigger I aint gonna just open twitter myself
>>389825251
Half of what you said there can be summarized as "I think [...]" by guy that made the video.
The owner of the site may as well have heard the story from a friend or a friend's friend or on old 1993 emails or something like that and you'd have no evidence from that video to disprove my claims.

I know a ton of you immigrated from reddit and /pol/ and haven't quite made the transition yet, but here at /v/ you are meant to actually talk about the topic in the OP, and not showcase how LOL SO NEGATIVE xDD you are.
>>389828257
I know you plebbit faggots think you fit in by saying such things, but you're wrong. OP topic is not worth discussing. Its just shilling for some e-celeb video, an hour long video with some gay ass acting. Sage.
