Meet Luis Lopez …

0

Rockstar Gams are proud to present to you Luis Lopez…

Things weren’t always so good for Luis Lopez.  Growing up with a strict single mother in the tough neighborhood of Northwood Heights, he managed to get himself into a lot of trouble at an early age.  It wasn’t until he was 25, after serving some time and taking part in a criminal outreach program, that he met Tony Prince, the man who changed everything.  Having worked his way up from doorman, the Dominican playboy now acts as personal bodyguard, confidant and friend to Tony, Liberty City’s most successful – and delusional, neurotic and drink and drug addled – nightlife impresario.  Although Tony is a Liberty City legend, he is also over his head in debt to gangsters and back on a path to self-destruction, Luis now has a fulltime job just trying to keep his boss, and the clubs he owns afloat. 

Luis helps to run Tony’s two current nightclubs, Maisonette 9 and Hercules, but even though he moves in different circles now, he still tries to remain close to his roots, helping his mother when he can and staying tight with his best friends from the old neighborhood, Armando Torres and Henrique Bardas.  Luis is doggedly loyal to his two buddies, and once took the fall for Armando after a deal went wrong when they were teenagers. Getting caught was both the motivation and means by which Luis moved on from that street life. The same cannot be said for Henrique and Armando, who are still found hustling on the same street corners. They have seen Luis move up the food chain and want his help to do the same.

Luis has two siblings who both moved away from Liberty City, so his mother lives all alone. Luis feels responsible, but no matter what he tries to do for her, nothing ever seems to be good enough. His siblings both went to college and got respectable jobs. It’s a constant struggle to balance the needs of friends and family, all the while looking out for Tony and his business interests in a town where everybody wants their piece of the action, and will stop at nothing to get it.

QUIZ Nightmare in Gameland – The BEST Video Game Trivia Game on ANY PLATFORM !!

Quiz Nightmare in Gameland is developed by Undercoders.  Capsule Computers did a story on it a while back.  (check here)  and also did an interview (check here) with the Undercoders. 

Quiz Nightmare in Gameland has been out for quite some time and is currently only available for the Apple iPhone / iTouch via iTUNES for only $1.99 US (download your copy here)

MasterAbbott was able to catch up with David from Undercoders who was more than happy to provide some information on the latest update that will be available soon for everyone that already has the game or for people that might be considering it.  David also mentioned that a LITE(DEMO) version of Gameland will be available at the same time as the update to the full game is released.  At the moment Gameland is currently in the list to process by Apple and should be available in a week or two.

If you don’t know anything about Quiz Nightmare in Gameland.  And you consider yourself a GURU when it comes to Games, Video Games and anything else you might consider gaming.  Then YOU MUST and I do mean MUST !!!! Buy this game.  It will test your knowledge of Video Games from the begining of their conception right up to present day.

I cannot give Quiz Nightmare in Gameland enough praise.  I truely believe its one of the most inovative, original and certainly the BEST Trivia game for Video Games ever made.

Below I have a list of updates that will be added to the existing game along with some really cool screenshots of the game.

I have planned a Video Review for Gameland once the update is available so I’ll be able to go through all the features and gameplay in more detail

List of updates in the new version of Quize Nightmare in Gameland as explained by David from Undercoders :

New Visual Questions: we introduced questions with images, so now the enemies can show you a picture and ask you about it. There’s a wide range of hardare identifying (consoles, cartridges, peripherals…), character silhouette guessing and some unique visual questions. We feel this is probably the most interesting feature, since it adds variety to the gameplay.

New enemies: a total of 8 new enemies were added to the game (one for each world), so completed bestiaries will need some new work. Some are not so easy to find though 😉

New minigame: a new minigame was added and can be found in some the inns . I’ts a memory-style game, with the usual 3 levels of difficulty.

New Score indicator: a score indicator was added in the map screen to keep track of the game’s score. This was asked by some users and noted as lacking in some reviews.

New questions: together with the new visual questions we added a few more normal ones. All in all, there should be above 250 new questions in this update.

Apart from that, there’s the typical typo-fixing and we’re sending some new info with the high scores on the bestiary status, game master and completed games, in order to add some distinctives in the web leaderboards.

Check out some of the new screenshots available when the Nightmare in Quiz Gameland update is released :

 

Thank you to Dave from Undercoders for providing all update information.  Keep an eye out for a video review in the coming weeks.  And make sure you download your copy of Nightmare in QUIZ Gameland NOW !!

Meet Princess Robot Bubblegum !!

1

ROCKSTAR Games today released a new video from Grand Theft Auto: The Ballad of Gay Tony, this one is for all you couch potatoes out there !! Check out the sneak peek at Princess Robot Bubblegum, the hit anime show taking Liberty City by storm.

Princess Robot Bubblegum is part of the new television lineup coming in Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City, she’s hot shes cute and she fires rockets from her robot bra !!  Looks like Rockstar games are onto a good thing here.  If Princess Robot gets enough Anime nerd followers I’ll wager my entire collection of video games I’ve collected over the past 35 years that a spin off Anime series will be created outside of the Grand Theft Auto world.  Anyone crazy enough to sleep with whacked out nympho plants to SAVE HUMANITY gets my vote 😉

Check out the video below and tell us what you think of it.
