on Jeff Minter using a torch, it is likely that the new ratings system was never intended to be taken seriously. Video game industry satire Consolevania often satirizes major industry figures and companies, both with impersonating caricatures (such as Lionhead Studios developer Peter Molyneux) and the manipulation of press conference videos for humor (Reggie Fils-Aime of Nintendo of America and Sony's Ken Kutaragi, among many others). Microsoft's J Allard is also frequently satirized. In a QuizVania segment in Episode 2.3 , Allard is listed 2nd in the list of "10 Things that are an Embarrassment to the Games Industry". During this suggestion, the message "Act your fucking age" is flashed on screen. In Episode 2.1, Consolevania presented a video game proposal to Rockstar Games for a "next-generation" title, Manpuncher vs. Boxhead. This consisted of a video short resembling a '70s police drama starring a gruff anti-authority figure who punches children and fights villains who all conveniently use the same 3D model to cut production costs. Rockstar politely rejected the proposal. In recent episodes, the Consolevania team have issued taunting challenges for a street fight to Codemasters and Rare. On 13 September 2007, Consolevania made a major splash with an incisive satirical parody of a Halo 3 promotional advertisement. The parody addressed an under-discussed issue with Xbox Live online gaming—the bad behaviour of a large proportion of the subscribers. References to Consolevania in popular culture In the video game Grand Theft Auto IV, one of the possible addiction levels in the statistics view is "Bummed in the Gob," a reference to an incident in which Robert Florence was dared to say the phrase "bummed in the gob" during a television interview. In the video game The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion's expansion pack Shivering Isles, a house has a pair of shoes on the roof in reference to Rab Florence's review of the original game, where he stated he enjoyed placing shoes on the roofs of buildings via the use of magic for fun. Florence's review took place before the release of the expansion pack.
