RE: The Ultimate SOMA Discussion Thread

Before I posted about it I thought it was "arm", too. Perhaps stylised "ARM", like an acronym.

Maybe an FG insider could tell us what is being said (in both instances). I mean, I assume the words of the characters aren't supposed to be a mystery haha.

RE: The Ultimate SOMA Discussion Thread

Maybe ARM, the mobile processor architecture technology. But I don't think so since this is a trademarked name and such. A quick idea would be that these are used at the A.I machines, their processors. Maybe (most probably) my tech interests are in fault here for hearing and perceiving wrong things. Tongue

Jailbroken needs his/her tool.

The arm/our project.

Doubt it is "our" since that would be "the our" lol.

RE: The Ultimate SOMA Discussion Thread

I was going to say that it could be "the Arne Project", but then I realised that an English speaker would pronounce it "Arnee" (like Ariadne and Persephone, for example). I enjoyed this possibility for a brief moment, because it's Greek and it could suggest the idea of the changing of forms between human and another creature/machine.

Also, I'm not entirely sure that she says tool. I don't hear the -l sound at the end.

Audio editing isn't my thing at all, so I just used stock noise removal and slowed stuff down by 30%:

RE: The Ultimate SOMA Discussion Thread

It's been a pretty slow week for SOMA news, so I may as well post this:

Apparently (and I use that word advisedly) you can pre-order SOMA for $59.99/£36.15/€45.43 on PC DVD-ROM and the PS4 from Play-Asia.com:
