I’m not sure how I feel about this..   But TellTale games is the one making the game, so maybe it will be awesome?

PS:  I decided, we should start posting again.    I want to make a new design, and probably do some other stuff to this website.

PPS:  I may have said that multiple times in the past.

I’m sure most of you have already played The Last Stand, but apparently there’s a sequel out there now.   I didn’t know it existed until today.

It’s a fun flash-based zombie survival game, and basically the same as the first one with a few differences.    Now you can travel from city to city, and search what buildings to search for(instead of how many hours searching for weapons/survivors).   There’s also the added suprise of traps and some new weapons like a Compound Bow and chainsaw.

Head on over to Armor Games to actually play The Last Stand 2.

The other day I stumbled on this awesome flash game, Attak.  It’s a pretty fun and addicting fighting game.

“Holy balls. This is fun”

JohnnyTwoShoes – Now Playing Attak
“Attak is a fighting game about using special moves to defeat your opponent. You don’t have to worry about buildings or land getting in your way because you can just smash right through them.

Each character has their own unique special move, a special move can be performed by pressing the button associated with the star.”

I was browsing the CAD forums today and saw this thread about a petition to stop Uwe Boll from making more movies.

First off, the link to the petition is :

http://www.petitiononline.com/RRH53888/petition.html

I signed it and was #182523.   Supposedly if this reaches 1 million signatures, Uwe Boll will stop making movies.  If you don’t know who he is.  Check out his imdb profile.  I personally don’t think his movies are complete crap, but I do agree that he usually has almost no understanding of the games he tries to turn into movies.  Postal looks pretty damn funny, but I don’t know if it’ll be another let-down or not.

Anyway. Go sign the petition!  Only 817,477 signatures are still needed!

George Romero, the guy behind most of the great Zombie movies, originally wrote a script for the movie portrayal of Resident Evil.

Night of the Living Dead

Dawn of the Dead

Day of the Dead

Land of the Dead

Originally, Romero was set to write the theatrical version of Resident Evil, but there were conflicts of interest with the director.

EXT JILL’S APARTMENT MORNING

…JILL, heavily ARMED, in UNIFORM, wearing a beret that has an insignia… S.T.A.R.S. She rushes down the front path and jumps into A HUMMER with THREE OTHER TROOPERS on board. The vehicle pulls instantly away…

…leaving Chris, looking through the window, puzzled, angry, and very much wounded.

I was browsing through ZombieReportingCenter dot com and came across this article which led me to the script.  I remembered hearing from a friend that Romero was supposed to write or direct Resident Evil but I never read the script or knew anyone who had.

George Romero’s version of the movie starts out completely different.   It starts with some mishaps in a lab being watched through a video screen, then cuts to Chris Redfield feeding some eagles.  After seeing something that freaks him out Chris goes back to Jill Valentines apartment and gets in bed with her.  They talk about how alone they are and then eventually Jill wakes up before Chris because she gets a call from S.T.A.R.S and has to leave.

Oh, and there was something to do with a guy and horses somewhere in that sequence..

EXT   THE FOREST   MORNING

DEEP IN THE HEART OF THE MIST... THE HUMMER bounces over
non-roads and stops fifty yards from...

...A PAIR OF IRON GATES, each wrought with the letter "A".
Beyond, the shifting fog offers momentary glimpses of...
A MANSION.  Huge.  Like Xandau.  THE TROOPERS, amazed,
climb out and approach the gates.

It looks like they're still going to the Mansion!



A deep, animal SNARL comes from the woods.  The troopers
raise their weapons as they peer into the underbrush.  The
fog keeps sunlight from penetrating.  The forest is a maze
of dark shadows. Leaves flutter.  Limbs SNAP.  Then...

DARK SHAPES can be seen moving, circling.  A half-dozen
of them.  Maybe more.  Jill whips out a transmitter and
quickly types an access code.

It didn't take long for the suspense to start building up.
After this scene it goes to some more recognizable characters like Wesker and Barry Burton.Chris gets out of bed, Helicopters land outside on the street of Raccoon City and attempt to evacuate everybody.
Chris beats up some guards, saves a sheriff and goes to his. . farm? I guess the guy with the horses was running Chris’s farm for him.  The old guy’s laying on the ground dying next to three of the horses that are also dead.


Barry looks worried. His instincts are asking... "We might
need... 'help'".  Against what? We only see this in his eyes,
he says nothing as...

...Wesker leads the team through the woods, unaware of...

...CHRIS, following behind, crouching around trees and
bushes, not a trained commando, but comfortable with the
land, a natural warrior using ancestral instincts.

Chris makes his way through the woods and follows the S.T.A.R.S team members that just landed.  This is only about page 16 of the script, but so far it seems like it would have made a pretty decent movie.
Go over to the Movie Script Place and read the rest of the script.  I might finish reading it all and review it some point in the future but for right now I’ll leave that up to you guys.
                
        

      

Yes. That’s right.  Duke Nukem Forever.  I think it might actually be coming … someday.  The above picture is just a screenshot of the Teaser Trailer.

3D Realms yesterday posted that today they were going to post a Teaser Video they had made.

From the 3D Realms post:

“We’d like to thank the people on the team that worked so hard to create this teaser and the friends of 3DR that helped create it (Jeremy Soule and Julian Soule, Frank Bry, Jason Evigan and of course, Jon St. John).”

Now, just because these are the people who helped create it doesn’t mean they’re the ones that need to be beat if we don’t see anything else for a few more years.

Head over to 3D Realms to check out the release post or straight to shacknews to download the Trailer.  It’s about 75mb and one minute long.

There’s also a story on Shacknews about the History of Duke.

edit:  3dRealms and Shacknews are both extremely slow right now, so I might end up mirroring the video file on my server.  I’ll leave a link here if I do.
Edit: Here’s youtube to the rescue. I might still mirror the HD .mov file though, who knows

• Installed the WP-Super-Cache plugin for WordPress.    It’s a replacement for WP-Cache that comes with WordPress.    It’s supposedly a lot faster and so far seems like a good alternative especially since it supports gzip.
• Changed the sitemaps.xml file around a little bit.  It no longer includes any Category or Archives type pages; Only actual posts and static pages.  This should stop google (and other search engines) from sending people to a category page instead of straight to the post they were looking for.
• I did alot of cleaning of code and such that you people won’t notice, but it’s there anyway.   Hopefully it’ll speed things up a little bit.
