Talk:Yars' Revenge
|
|
We have a bit of a problem here. As you can see, the name of the article is Yar's Revenge. However, the name of the game is Yars' Revenge. Yes, that's correct, the apostrophe goes AFTER the letter 's'. I did a little bit of research and found that on all releases of the game, including the gameboy version, the apostrophe does come after the the 's'. However, if you read the game manual, you will find that the hero of the story is named simply Yar, not Yars. So therefore the title is spelled incorrectly.
So we must make a choice. Should the article title remain the grammatically correct Yar's Revenge, or should with use the original, incorrect spellin, Yars' Revenge? Please take the opportunity to vote here, and if you can please explain the reason for your choice. Thank you. - Dan Mazurowski
There is just a misunderstanding. The character in the game isn't named Yar, he is a Yar. If you read the back of the box this is made clear. -Nydigovoth
I remember a cassette from the mid 80s which I think was a dramatic reading of the Yars' Revenge mini comic book. It wasn't available for very long, and was probably promotional. I don't think it was ever packaged with the game, though it may have been packaged with a book. Is this familiar to anyone else? It would be interesting to add this info to the article. CyborgTosser
