These are potential titles for a video game. Which one grabs your attention and makes you want to try it out the most?



Just curious which title you think is the best. Which one sticks in your mind? Which one would you most likely be curious about from the title alone? :)

Paradox Performer flows better than the others; the other just sound dumb.

I think Doubt Principle is the only remotely not-lame-sounding one.

Thanks for your input. Interesting that you have such opposite opinions. And the poll actually shows Origin Complex as the most popular name, which is a little unexpected.

They're all stupid as all of them are abstract enough to be completely irrelevant to everything.

They don't have to be relevant to be remembered. I'm interested in finding out what combinations of words sounds the most interesting and/or memorable. :)

Not gonna lie, Paradox Performer sounds kinda lame. Like it's trying too hard to make an alliteration. Paradox Principle would have gotten my attention more.

Doubt Principle is pretty intriguing, but as a videogame title it wouldn't get me to wonder about it too much. Like if I heard an announcement for a game called doubt Principle I'd pass over it pretty quickly.


Origin Complex gets my attention the most. In addition to sounding the best together (imo), starting with the word origin is a major plus. It gives the impression of the begining of a saga, which makes me curious. It also doesn't sound genre restricted to me. Like Paradox Performer sounds like a puzzle platformer and doubt Principle sounds like a mystery or investigation type game. Origin Complex kinda evokes a sci-fi feel, but nothing past that.

They have to paint a picture roughly in line with the theme, and those titles are garbled nonsense.

What if the theme is garbled nonsense?

In all seriousness though, I see your point. The thing is, I want a title that sounds as strange as possible while still being fun to say and memorable.

Oh, wow! Thanks for the detailed response! This'll be very useful! :D

It should match the strangeness of the story, it needs internal consistency.

Performer makes me think of clowns. Principal makes me think of crappy high school. Complex makes me think of sneaking through a base of soliders.

Origin Complex it is.

Paradox performer sounds like a comedian

doubt principle sounds like a school game

origin complex sounds like a syphon filter or deus ex tag.

A title alone isn't going to make me care, i'll need a descripion and some images to make me care.

For me, they actually sound like 'sub' titiles (like Mission Impossibe: Origin Complex) for a 'Main' title.

Outta the 3, I gotta go with 'Paradox Performer'...eventhough it would sound better as 'Paradox Platformer' if it was a game in that genre...

Origin Complexand Doubt Principle both sounds better flipped


Complex Origin and Principle Doubt (this sound like a Law movie or TV show)
