I await the post-apocalyptic day in which roving bands of video game hippies tour the country just to fight one boss — just to play one level — on antiquated Xbox 360s and PlayStations. People watching the gamers will shout out the quotes as if it was the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
“It was not by my hand that I am once again given flesh. I was brought here by humans who wish to pay ME tribute.”
The demo for this game is fantastic. It has some of the best graphics I’ve ever seen on the PS2. I really like how the boss battle is intertwined with the entire level. It will be interesting to see how the story pans out in the full game. The art direction in the original game was superb, but the style and colors in the new game are even better. If you haven’t seen it, the opening animation is straight out of movies like Jason and the Argonauts or Clash of the Titans.
I forgot to mention GameZombie.tv! Spencer Striker, a fellow MIME student, was able to get some great interviews this past week from industry icons like Harvey Smith, David Jaffe, and Raph Koster. Look forward to seeing these clips on the website!
300 is great. Just got back from the Metreon in downtown San Francisco. If you’ve read and enjoyed the graphic novel, you should definitely go see the movie. There were a few things left out of the movie that would have liked to see, but it’s still good. See it in IMAX if you can.
This is a low-res version of the GDC trailer that was put together by Marc Carlton, Aaron Sarazan and Jim Cummings. It contains some in-game footage of the game along with some of Charlie Hoyt’s music. If you’re at the GDC, stop by booth 560 in the West Hall and say hi!
