[QUOTE="Artur Hawkwing, post: 5662284, member: 50177"] So, I was flipping through my copy of BESM d20 the other day and suddenly got struck with an idea. What video games/tv/movies would make good games for a d20 system? So I set out to see what I could come up with for, in my opinion, the one I'd most be interested in playing. The result? Where In (insert word here) Is Carmen SanDiego? Remember these games? Or the two game shows? How about the short lived cartoon? I even came up with... [i]Many, many times, ACME Detectives of all levels had dedicated themselves to solving the most confusing and outrageous crimes ever. Until that fateful day that she, the best agent ACME had ever known, spurned all she had worked for and founded her own criminal organization. Since that day she had vexed ACME. Traveling around the World, nabbing this or that seemingly random artifact or historical trinket. ACME always recovered the goods, even caught her henchmen, but rarely did they catch this master Detective/Criminal. Those few times someone was lucky enough to capture her, she was loose before the week was out.[/i] [i]Now, things were different.
