If...

Solving equations. This would manifest itself in a way similar to the megaphone power-up from Parodius, where lines of shouted text killed your foes.

Struggling for a canon one... Umbrella, maybe, on account of how much it rains in these parts.

IF you were a character designer working on the game ARMS, what would your character design be?

The Condemned, and his extendable arms would actually be the chains of his manacles.

A praying mantis-type monk-lady, whose claws extend all springy like. And then to celebrate she eats the head of her opponent.

Weird Mario

I'm thinking an animal character. Initially it was going to be a bear, but then I thought Drunka might not like that, so I've switched to a kangaroo. With spiky armoured shoulder pads, and excessively bright red boxing gloves.

I'd like playing as a bear, I'd just never be able to bring myself to punch it.

Cue Balla yelling 'WHAT HAS SCIENCE DONE' at spring-armed animal character long after it lost any semblance of being funny.

Going to be a right cheating bastard and go with a Goro-like character with four arms so I don't have to stop punching.

I love octopodes! They're really clever and interesting and they look like they've got huge conks. And actually a cephalopod of some sort would be grand for ARMS, they're naturally fairly extend-y.

Alternatively, Octoman crossover? Since it looks like we'll never see him again otherwise... ('Octoman', Jesus Christ. Great job F-Zero X character designers.)

Ocht...I don't think I can think of one.

You'll all get a slap in the pus if this keeps up!

That sounds like the right time to change the question, then.

IF you could insert your name in the credits of one video game that has been released up to press (14th February 2017, for future reference!), which one would it be?

Oh my! I didn't know you had it in you, Mr Moyles!

MGSV. My name would come up every time Hideo's does.

Before I saw Drunka's post, I was going to say MGSV, also I should be in a few credits anyway at somepoint.

Do we overwrite another credited name? If so - Axiom Verge. Tom Happ didn't make the game by himself... I did.

Wrong area of the body - it's the Stephanie McMahon special.
