Title: A strange paragraph
Post by: Strife26 on October 28, 2009, 03:25:32 pm: I took lines from four relatively noted video games and ran them through several translators. Can you figure out what they once were?

Karamell with this high orange of the butter of the high tarareo of tararearnos to the left croûtons.
With her alcanga, the end to intercept it everything!
The planet is cloud of the inoperative women!
The destruction is restoration!

Post by: Strife26 on October 28, 2009, 09:55:12 pm: You know, it's pretty much impossible the way it is, isn't it? I'll roll back a few of the translations and make it easier.

Here we go, just to French and back:
Caramel with the orange butter of zoom of zoom of let us croûtons.
With obtained to catch them all!
The planet is cloud of death!
The destruction is recreation!

Post by: Strife26 on October 29, 2009, 01:23:40 pm: Nope. One line's from a FF though.

Post by: Errol on October 29, 2009, 01:46:15 pm: For giggles, I took a line from a not-so-mainstream game and scrambled it as well.

Nope. I'll give some more hints.

1) Might not be a line you're familiar with, from a PS series.
2) Gotta catch em all.
3) From a series you're probably familiar with, not the best line though.
4) The motto of a game that you should be familiar with.

I'll also give the very big hint that at least one word that was capitalized was decaped in the translation.

Correct.
