It's Tony who is going to have the idea. Tony, the 22 year old kid. Video games are more than a passion for him. When he is not involved in bad tricks, he spends day and night in video arcades or in front of his Playstation. Tony's story begins with a break in... that ends badly. Eight months of prison... with plenty of time to think... to ponder... and to come up with the concept of the game of the century ! Once out of prison, at a video games exhibition, Tony presents his concept to Valerie Fisher, Director of the famous Gameplay Inc. She is a beautiful-breasted business shark, ambitious princess, and tantalizing vamp... she's ruthless... and as interested in Tony as in his game. Too naive, Tony will sign his entire concept over to Valerie Fisher... who has no scruples about dumping him and launching the production of the game. But Tony is a street kid and he decides that no one is going to walk on so much as his little toe. He is going to make his own game. With the means at hand, not much money, but lots of humor, scheming, willpower, shrewdness, and a little bit of mischief, Tony and his friends will do everything possible to be ready in time, and to take revenge on Gameplay... Tom Thumb against the Giant... Be ready...
