hey you know how there are a lot of mmorpgs and online games that originate from Korea, Japan etc? I must admit, they're games are good. They just need better translators sometimes.

post in this thread funny translations you come across in games, or on game websites, or even on any website!

Here's one of my favourites (from muonline.com):

description for a spell
"It shoots Power Wave to an enemy in a straight line. Power Wave digs the ground and moves forward the enemy and then, gives harm to them."
