Except that Jersey Shore is the worst piece of media (it's generous to refer to it as such) to ever be publicly broadcast, while RPGs are fun and we love them.

Any show that lets you laugh at another demise is classic television to me...

No, he's right. Jersey Shore is a terrible show, and is helping propagate the "Guido Mentality" which is a sin in itself.

Wow, I'm impressed. I didn't think anyone dumb enough to enjoy Jersey Shore to the point of defending it would be smart enough to be able to use the internet. Well done!

Well, there was a "The Room" rpg, so let's have a Jersey Shore RPG! Get to it!

I'd probably laugh if I've ever seen a single episode of the show.

Context clues. I know enough about the show from the internet that I don't need to have ever seen an episode.
I didn't know anybody died though...

Having seen some of Season 1 I can vouch that this was hilarious.

I went in expecting a wicked GTL joke. And I was not disappointed

Pickles + Vodka is easily the best part.

I love how the sluts were Terra in her Esper form, and most of the guys were Sabin clones, lol.

As a dirty foreigner, I know not of this "Jersey Shore", however upon looking it up on Wikipedia, I found two things out 1) I never want to watch this show, 2) Japan takes it to the next level.
The show's called "Jersey Shore: The New Jersey Life of Macaroni Rascals" over there. Cunning, I would have watched a show with such a ridiculous title out of blind curiosity. Well played Japanese television. Well played.

Yeah, but that title's probably mundane by Japanese TV standards.

There should've been a "FIST PUMPING LIKE CHAMPS" part lol.
But yeah, awesome.

The Snooki part is the best.

Wow, who would've guessed the guys at CollegeHumor were such big FF6 fans?

We got a situation! I love this show!

@PR0F3TA I hate reality TV but dammit I love watching those kids' antics, they make me laugh every time. Anyone who wants to criticize me for loving Jersey Shore can kiss my white untanned ass.

That was hilarious, people take this show way to seriously, as if lucifer himself is the creator and director.
this show makes grown men act like 40 y.o. mothers with kids.... "its what's wrong with the moral fabric of america, society and it makes us dumber"... so don't watch it, or get over it.

I dug the Final Fantasy battle music/victory music reference. I think a sports car like BMW could use Chocobo's music.
Plus, Vodka + Pickles = Phoenix Down
I would play this game if it were real.

I'm not going to get all preachy about it but I do think most of you underestimate the entetainment value in the show. I mean come on, it's stupid people doing stupid things. That puts it at least in guilty pleasure territory
