Even if it's supposed to be "Base" I always pronounce it "Bass".  It's a mispronunciation that just kinda stuck with me.
likewise. damn you, 8.

...When Larry the reploid accountant goes maverick of his own accord, he's certainly formidable during tax season, but he isn't going to provide X the challenge needed to make him grow as a warrior and reach his potential.

Base sounds so annoying for a character like that, I prefer to say Bass.

This is the same kind of discussion with another name, namely Ryu. I used to say Rai you, but then whiny friends came and now I have started to call him Ree you instead.

OH MAI GOD IT'S RAIYU HEYABUSA FROM NINJA GAY-DEN!

i have no respect for those who say Raiyu and Hadugen. and it really pisses me off that a shirt exists with the latter.

...So the Fish pronunciations sounds cooler for a villain?

Besides, Forte/Gospel sound alot more menacing to me than Fish-name-mess-up and Treble.
The only issue with "Forte" is I start to think of Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas.  Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

also, what kind of musical term is Rush supposed to be?
Rush is an Extreme Racing game!  I guess that's musical somehow.

Is "Ryou" doing it wrong?

I see "Bass" so I say "Bass". In the same manner, I see "Ryu" - I say "Ryu".
