So the achievement list has recently been revealed for the upcoming “Deadliest Warrior” Game. It is a game that is inspired from the TV show by the same name where warriors from across the ages fight each other to see who comes out victorious.
Below is the achievement list, and below that is a small preview of the game that was included in the Season 2 preview. The achievement list itself seems like a lot of fun. With dismemberment and Monty Python and the holy grail references. Also, by the looks of it, the game will include co-op since only the “Primary” player gets the achievements. Currently it is all speculation, but the video preview looks kinda fun.
A Head of the Competition 20 – Decapitate 100 enemy warriors as the primary player.
That Was Sparta! 20 – Kill 300 Spartans as the primary player.
Tournament to Kill 20 – Win 10 online tournaments as the primary player.
Pin Cushion 10 – Stick 4 projectiles in a single opponent as the primary player.
Against All Odds 20 – Defeat 25 warriors in Survival Mode as the primary player.
Flesh Wound 10 – Perform a final strike on an opponent after your arm has been sliced off as the primary player.
On Death’s Door 20 – As the primary player, kill an opponent while at critical health, with your leg and arm injured.
Right on Time 10 – Perform only perfectly timed strikes to defeat an enemy as the primary player.
Black Knight 20 – Remove all four limbs from the Knight during a single match as the primary player.
Deadliest Arsenal 30 – Unlock every weapon and armor available for every warrior as the primary player.
Shishkabob 10 – Remove an enemy’s head with a projectile and stick it into a wall as the primary player.
Who’s Deadliest Now? 10 – Defeat Arcade mode on the Deadliest difficulty as the Ninja, the Viking, and the Knight.
So MasterAbbott and I were talking about how we are managing to release a lot of news and reviews way before the big boys on other sites. Since we all have huge egos over here we won’t listen to your futile arguments trying to prove us wrong. As we were discussing this fact, MasterAbbott felt that it was important to share it with the world, so he pulled out his Gears of War gun and I pulled out my katana and we had an all out battle.
The battle raged on for days, but I came out victorious and MasterAbbott lay dead at my feet. Luckily he had a fairy in a bottle and is now back in top fighting condition. The fairy cost 50 rupees however and now I am stuck paying him back. SOOO MUCH GRASS CUTTING! My katana should not be used like this! OOH a rock with 5 rupees inside! now I just need 45 more rupees.
Now on to other important matters.
Hey! are you reading this? good! that means you are smart. Those not reading and waiting for another site to release the review we already released are stupid people. You aren’t stupid, because you enjoyed the Alan Wake review that was out way before the other guys. You aren’t stupid at all, you get free stuff for commenting. but you don’t comment for some reason. COMMENT YOU PEOPLE!!! it is easy and simple and fun!! What is so hard about saying a sentence or two on every single post we put out? Not only do you have a chance to win something big twice a month, but you have a chance to be randomly selected at a random time and place to receive random prizes. FREE STUFF!!
Comment! Sure, your views alone are awesome! But MasterAbbott’s ego needs to be stroked and everyone here at capsule computers loves reading all your comments. So comment, free stuff is on the line! FREEEEEE!!!
Last week, none other than Aperture Science themself sent an official email stating that the Portal 2 event scheduled to take place during E3 had been cancelled, and would be replaced by a ‘surprise’. They even went on to clarify that the cancellation of the Portal 2 event was not the surprise (thanks for that).
Of course, speculation immediately began brewing that the surprise would be the long awaited Half Life 2: Episode Three. A suspicious screenshot also emerged from the interwebs.
Sorry to squash those hopes and dreams, because big Valve boss Gabe Newell has stated that the surprise is NOT Episode Three.
Replying to a user from the Halflife2.net fansite, Newell simply stated that the surprise “isn’t Ep 3”. In a later email he stated the aforementioned screenshot was “fake”.
I’m sure nearly every one of us has thought of what would happen in the case of a zombie outbreak. Would you fortify a school? Gather anything you can and hunker down? Or constantly stay on the move?
In Madhouse Studio’s Anime adaption of High school of the Dead there has been a mysterious lethal disease that has spread around the world and has caused billions of people to die simply from the disease. Humanity is still threatened now; not by the disease but by those who have died. These walking dead have begun to attack the living and are slowly decimating the rest of the human survivors.
Now in Japan several high school students and the school nurse have joined together to try and escape their Fujimi High School after it has been attacked by the zombies. As they attempt to stay alive they also are trying to discover what could have caused such a terrible plague and potentially even find a cure.
Now this one is one of the highest on my priorities to watch when it airs July 5th, and I would recommend it highly to anyone who enjoys a good zombie movie or game. It will contain excessive gore though so be warned if excessive gore may upset you
Hey, are you enjoying the Crackdown 2 Webcomic series? IF so, you are in luck! the third episode is available to you now.
I could use the rest of this post to explain what is going on, and what has happened, and my thoughts on the matter; but reading is so tedious when you could just watch it for yourself. SO WATCH IT! WATCH IT NOW!
We have shown you many live action trailers for F3AR, but now it is time for a more gameplay oriented trailer. The most recent trailer below shows gameplay from both players. Pointman and Fettel as they do their own thing. ‘never face FEAR alone’. Oh yeah, there is something about deception and vengeance as well but we won’t know what that means until later.
Today in San Francisco, California Apple held their keynote at their yearly Worldwide Developers Conference. As always Steve Jobs took the stage and officially revealed the new iPhone.
The iPhone 4 is built using the A4 processor that’s in the Apple iPad, it’s also got a new gyroscope sensor which i’m very interested in seeing how it works, a screen that is 4x the resolution of the existing iPhone which has been bumped to 326dpi, which is on the threshold of what the human eye can actually detect (this also puts the iPhone on the top of the list with the highest resolution screen of any mobile device). A 5mpixel Camera on the front and back of the iPhone so you can finally do video conferencing, and plenty of other cool features such as recording video in 720p HD video and for $4.99 there will be an iMovie app which will allow you to unprecendented editing power on a mobile device. Oh you can also multi-task now as well, allowing you to swap between apps and games without having to close them down.
Now lets get down to gaming, with the upgraded firepower of the iPAD processsor (A4), all games and even apps will load up much faster and the frame rates are going to be higher as well. Can you imagine what the new iPhone 4 enhanced games will look and even play like !! Oh Happy days are ahead of us thats for sure. This will give the major developers like EA, CAPCOM, UBISOFT, GAMELOFT more freedom to create even better games on the Phone !!
Let’s talk figures !! The iPhone 4 will priced at $199 for the 16gb and $299 for 32GB models (THESE ARE US PRICES – don’t even get me started on what the prices will be when the phone reaches Australia) The the iPhone 3GS is still currently priced at $99 US (much more here in Australia). Pre-orders for US customers for the iPhone will start June 15th, and Apple has plans on shipping out the new device on June 24th.
Another thing I’ve been waiting for (and everyone else that has a iPhone) is the new iPhone OS. Labeled the “iOS 4”, the OS upgrade will be available for free to all iPhone users, and even for iPod touch owners for the first time. A word of WARNING !! The 1st gen iPod touch won’t be supported. This is great as developers will not need to downscale games and apps for them to run on the older devices.
Square Enix and Eidos are turning up the heat on the new Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days media blitz. In an early E3 trailer they have shown just how violent and devoted Lynch can be. Of course there is your standard bit of gunplay but when the player has the ability to grab a man and push his face down onto a burning stove, then that is brutal.
If they incorporate that type of environmental interaction with kills and interrogation then we could be seeing a mix of Condemned: Bloodshot and Splinter Cell: Conviction. Expect to see Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days this August.
What if instead of muscle bound soldiers, they wore full suits of armor making them seem robotic? What if Gears of War was made by a Japanese company? Well we might be seeing something quite similar to that in this new game called Vanquish which is being produced by Platinum Games. The game is set for release some time in winter of this year.
My biggest notice is that there seems to be a lot more bullets flying around than your standard Gears of War game, as well as the most glaring difference. Rather than a chainsaw bayonet, it looks as if your hands can be infused with some type of energy and allow you to unleash your fury through your fists on your enemies. Looks to be quite promising, here is hoping that it will continue to stay as promising.
