Why GMS, though? - Five Second Pose - 2008-11-15
Every other version makes a World Tour area. Why are we allowed to have a whole frigging continent? Just wondering. :f6:

Singapore has a whole continent too.

Yeah, but I suppose gMS has the biggest addition, with a storyline, proof of other expansions, and other pomegranate.

Siam is too, right?

Global is not a place, all they can really do is stick all the landmarks in one spot (NLC) and make up some stuff to go along with it. The creatures are definitely more Western than most of the game though, I mean it's not Kappas and stuff, it's Bigfoot and Gryphons.

NLC is already in many ways similar to a cross between America and Europe (Bigger Ben = Big Ben, Affulent Tower = Eiffel Tower, A statue of Liberty with a mushroom head in the background, A stonehenge structure with the 4 job instructors heads in the background) oh the list could go on...
So Masteria is somewhat similar to World Tour though it isn't declared to be one.

Stonehenge? Lmao I think you mean Mount Rushmore

Crimsonwood Keep does not fit anywhere within the real world. I suppose the rocks could look like Utah (:/), but that's a long stretch at best. (Any ideas?)
by comparison, Ghost Ship and the Pine Forest are fantasized versions of the places the World Tour represents (heck, Pine Forest has Mt. Fuji in the background)

Nevada and the interior of California for the badlands area...

A lot of it is more of a fictional representation than a factual, though, so trying to find specifics is difficult. Kinda like Kaede Castle, I'm pretty sure it's not referencing any specific temple, just the idea of a temple full of ninjas in general.

They should add: Space Needle, Grand Canyon, Golden Gate Bridge, Niagara Falls, and the Temples/Pyramids of Mexico in Masteria.

A wonderful idea, as most people who wander into Masteria tend to "dissappear" for their ban duration, much like the ancient Mayans did.

Yeah, but Masteria has a whole BACKSTORY behind it, which other exclusive areas do not have.

No one mentioned Chile's Moais in Masteria... xD

You can't have a North American version of any game, without a football stadium.
Monsters:
Defensive Linemen
Eagles Fan
Steroid Quarterback
Boss:
Terrell Owens

You'd think other versions would complain then, yes?
