I wish to finally get it on the record in this thread that I don't hang out with Toe Jam when we're off the clock.

There is a character that shares my last name in the Saturn RPG Shining the Holy Ark. Never played but I read it on the back of the case.

My name is in an SNES title (not a good game eiTHEr) though it's "Unlikely" one could guess right away (the character was an embarrasment to my name).

Two of the words are in the first paragraph in order, I just left out the game characters name. LOL

I'm in the credits for Stronghold Crusader and Stronghold 2! (And it's actually me) Also, in both games, if you use "Fantasia" as your name, there's actually a sound file for the opening of the game which says "Greetings Lord Fantasia". A whole bunch of more common s and boys names are included in sound files, as well as the names of the beta testers.

Hey thats really cool. I think it would be fun to beta test games.

Hmm, I'm not sure about game characters named Russ or Russell. Anyone?

But, my name is in the credits of Activision Anthology, at least on the PS2 (I think the GBA version too, but am not 100% sure).

And of course I was credited on Stella Gets A New Brain, but since that's a hobbyist release, YMMV as far as the question goes.

My "online" and "real life" names are used in 75% of all campcom releases!*

Dr. Wily = millions of Mega Man games*

Ken = billions and billions of Street Fighter games*


*numbers may be exaggerated slightly!

Let's not forget Lester was Rodney's son in the Skate Or Die / Ski Or Die games.

Technically, yes.

Kitsune from ShadowRun SNES.

Okay, maybe not. My real name's Dave, and I can't think of any game character with that name.

My name is in the credits of the following PC games:

Ultimate Ride
Ultimate Ride Coaster Deluxe
Ultimate Ride Disney Coaster

I was a beta tester for all 3 games. BTW, my name is Monroe White III in case you wanna look for my name.

I'm listed in the credits for the Beta test of Diablo under the "Ring of 1000" but since only 999 people had that disc, I guess it isn't a big deal.

I'm in the credits of SNES Battlecars and maybe some other Namco games around that time. Also tested some pinball game from Microsoft years ago, but never saw the final product to look for myself.

Not a video game but I remember being surprised many years ago when I saw my first and last name matched the bad guy from a "case" in one of the Encyclopedia Brown books. Not going to state my real name here but it isn't a common last name, which is the very reason I was surprised.

Yes, I literally do have MY name in a game... this one (http://www.atariage.com/features/Stan2004/achievement.html). It's just a hack of Breakout, and I own the only copy, but it has my name on the cartridge label and on-screen in the game itself.

Also, since my name is Brad Johnson, my name is in plenty of NFL games....

I've seen my name in a few games before...my LAST name that is. My last name is a somewhat commone first name in Japanese, but it's still nice to see it in there, especially when I saw it in Snatcher :) I've also linked my whole last name/first name thing to me actually having some Japanese ancestry in me. Cool :)

OT but I finally had an email printed in this months OPM letters. Yay! lol

Someone I know is supposed to be thanked in the credits of the PSP Capcom Classics Collection... Sam Roberts, webmaster of The Light Sword Cypher Mainframe (http://lscmainframe.topcities.com/). Apparently he helped out with Strider info.

As for me, no... but I should be.
