The Mayor: Sounds a bit like Mayor Quimby on the Simpsons
Pox: It's him, but he used the same voice as ZIM
Crypto: Sounds like Jack Nicholson kinda

This game isn't too great. It lasted for me 3 days before i returned it to the video store for Mercenaries. ( Got gamepass. ) I think the PK power is exactly like the Force in Starwars, but it's cool flinging people around ands tuff and see how they land. ( Ragdoll Physics. )

Yeah, JFK predates Quimby by... several decades. And I found that Crypto sounds more like a cross between John Wayne and Jack Nicholson, with a oh so slight hint of Clint Eastwood.

yeah. he sounds like nicholson from mars attacks. and i also realized that pox did sound like invader zim.

If anything "The force" is a rip off of PK. the idea of
pyscho-keneis/tele-keneis has been around for ages far longer than star wars. and alot of the voices are similar as this game is a b movie parady, as was mars attacks.

My lord.

If you think that them using the same voice actor as from a TV series, a Mayor sounding like Kennedy, or a main character who has a voice actor with a similar voice to Jack Nicholson, then you are an idiot.

He sounds like Quimby because they are both parodies on political figures.

He sounds like Zim because it is the same voice actor.

He sounds like Jack Nicholson because...hmm, maybe the actors have similar voices?! DUUUUH!

As for PK, Telekenisis has been around for a long time, before Star Wars (Which, I might add, is intented for small children, it's maker calls it a fairytale, and eps I,II,III and IV are poorly directed, and it isn't the best thing in the world anyway.)

No, this game didn't rip-off much, it is a parody, and gives credit do the two movies it is mainly parodying.

If you want to go and bag out something for ripping stuff off, try the Matrix series.
