The Haunted Cartridge was interesting, but it was just a creepy rom hack at best.

I don't understand what's up with the video, it's a bunch of writing ( terrible english) and a camera moving around a dark lite cozy 3D made up house.

What does this have to do with the Majora's Mask "Haunted Cart"..?

Right, well I just don't understand why it's getting such attention when all he did was make things all messed up.

Is there even a download from this guy for it as proof that he made it? This just doesn't seem all the gaming news worthy.

Even though I prob won't play it (I've never even played the real Majora's Mask, its neat gaming news. Not many people make games like this, with light ARG elements and such. This is cool 4th wall breaking stuff, like things Kojima did in Metal Gear Solid.

What I'm wondering is if this is a new idea by this guy, or if the "huanted ROM" was just some viral prelude to this game he had in mind all along. You know, to generate buzz.

There's a whole past story. It's nice to see someone putting this much effort into a personal project. Seems pretty "gaming blog worthy" to me.

The author ruined the story later by saying that the ghost in the cartridge took over his computer, communicated with him through cleverbot, and deleted about 75% of the story. Then he started some ARG where he got phone calls playing backwards music from Majora's Mask in his house, which is where this takes place or something.

@TRONdll Even though you don't like the story decisions he has made, doesn't mean other people don't. Plus, look into it more. It was an ARG from the start, because the moon children arc came first. We are still trying to find out what is Jadu's doing, and what is BEN's. There are many questions we are thinking of each second, and that keeps us drawn in.

Its funny how a haunted cartridge seems more feasible than a haunted disc...

Just fyi: the 1's and 0's at the 26 second mark spell out "isn't clear yet".

So this is basically a computer virus disgisusing itself as a game. Sounds cool, but veereeeery suspicious.

Also just a little note, this was the fake "tampered with" trailer. Word on the street says the real trailer will come out this week.

It continues to amaze me how Jad is able to make something this big when he's just a regular guy. :D

I can honestly say I can't wait for the next step in the ARG. We already sucked most of the information you can gather out of this "tampered" trailer.
