I like it. It lets them do clever things with the title art, and somehow looks less cheap than normal numbers even when they don't do anything cool.

They are called arabic, because they were adopted by persian empire, but they were invented by hindu scholars.

Invented by Indians. Only called Arabic because the Arabs got them from India earlier, since Arabia and the Outremer is between Europe and India.

you all know nothing of video games.

I dare you to delve into this historical phenomenon, with a weird twist at every sentance. The dungeon crawler RPG with a 30 minute time limit.
Or the spinoff series with three titles, something like 15 years apart each, one released for the friggen N-Gage, and the most recent being a reboot that swaps European fantasy completely for a modern day Japanese setting.

Previously, King of Fighters games were a yearly release so they put the year it was released in the title (94-2003). Now, development takes more time, so they switched to roman numerals.
