Tiny little nitpick... (animorphs question part)
Everywhere I look says David's main morph was a lion, also, he morphed into a rattlesnake... not a cobra...

Anecdote: I actually saved, closed the game and googled the answer before the game told it to me. It's funny because then River says "you could have googled it".

Yeah, haha. As someone who did read the books as a kid I was like LION! LION? LION!!!!! And it kept telling me I was wrong. I laughed out loud at the whole River quote though.

The animorphs trivia question is incorrect, which really bugs me. It seems to be the creators misremembering, as there's a reason someone might think his main morph was a cobra - He owned a pet cobra, a cobra the Marco acquired and morphed into on occasion, but David never once morphed into it. He later morphed an unrelated rattlesnake.

Lion is probably the first thing anyone who read the books would guess, but for some reason they got it wrong. Also there's another inaccuracy - How the hell is David Johnny's favorite character? That makes no sense.

It actually makes a ton of sense that the answer is wrong because, remember, that scene in the bookstore/library takes place in John's memory and he never actually read the Animorphs books.

When you talk to River, she reels off the list of primary animals for all the Animorphs. Even she says 'Cobra' for David, even though David used a Lion to fight and an Eagle to fly (as distinct from the animals the other animorphs chose.)

While not a game-breaker, it's a little disappointing. The writer should have taken River's advice and googled it.

it would be nice if this question was correct. having read the animorph series multiple times, it bugs the crap out of me for a game to make the refference and still get things wrong.

In case anyone ever finds this thread again and is confused

As Andy_ said well nigh a yeah ago: the animal is wrong because John's memory is wrong. Even if River "says" the answer, John could easily have misheard, or not correctly remembered. The people in his memory are just that, memories. Ever wonder why all the people are fuzzy silhouettes without faces? Because John never remembered their faces correctly (Watt actually mentions this). He never actually read the Animorph books, and to have such a jarring error makes a ton more sense when you finally figure out why John never read the books, but only said he did.

It doesn't actually make sense. He got the main character's animals right(even though Rachel's name is spelled wrong :P), and you'd think he'd remember what animal David was because he had to answer the kid(putting it to memory, unlike the other characters).

With the references to Street Fighter, The Hulk and Doctor Who to name a few, I'm surprised Watts didn't just belt out "COOOOOBRAAAAAAAAAAA!"

Yeah, I agreed with 'it's make sense'. Just remember that it's inside John's 'memory'. Is he actually read Animorph? As we did in real life, sometimes we make a 'false' memory just to prove to ourself that it's really happened even thought we never did it.
