I’m not sure if this is cool, inappropiate or both. But as a fan of the book and a developer of promotional websites for the film industry I can’t help the curiosity. In other news, the soundtrack for the movie (by our friends Cave and Ellis) will see the light of day via digital publishing on November 23rd, two days before the official US release date. About their work, Nick Cave has this to say: “The movie is about the loss of things, the absence of things, the lack of things. The lack of the wife/mother is present in every frame of the film. The delicate edifice of the film holds the ache of her absence, tenderly and by the tips of the fingers,” explains Cave. “The music was composed as a direct response to the film. A light, haunting, simple score with a sense of absence and loss at its heart.” Anticipation.

¡Enorme! Zombie Driver es la prueba de que no está todo inventado y de que a veces recombinar ideas y hacerlo bien es la mejor idea de todas. Tiene una pinta TAN divertida y un acabado TAN profesional (aunque sea de tres polacos locos que programan en un sótano) que creo que les recompensaré con unos buenos dineros cuando salga el mes que viene.

Me lo ven en HD bonito, por favor.

rocketjumper: Making ‘em Like They Used To: Star Guard A game of minimal controls and beyond minimal graphics, it pulls off the remarkable feat of evoking a grim invasion – you as one of a Spaceman army invading a Wizard’s fortress, occasionally encountering doomed comrades, but always pushing on, against the endless tide of bright red monsters. Ah, even names like ’spaceman’ and ‘wizard’ are so warmingly reminiscent of an age when a character required only a title, not a complicated backstory, love interest, long-lost son, eight different kinds of amnesia and the forename Jack. All this is set to to a strangely affecting mix of plinky-plonk retro noises and semi-nihilist messages from your unseen commanders. Incredibly accessible yet nonetheless fairly hardcore in its way, it’s bleak, charming, clever and masterfully minimalistic. Grab it for no-pennies from here.

No juego a WoW, pero la situación me resulta extremadamente familiar.

Qué buena pinta. ¡Cómo se nota que se han inspirado en el Dead Space para lo de los bichos en el techo, el clima malrollante, la escasez de munición y todo lo demás!

Videogames + Sex + Justice on drugs + Ultraviolence = Win.

Immersion = a Red One camera + a 7th gen console + a bunch of videogame addicted pre-teens + the bloodiest titles in the market.

My favorite is the expressionless, deeply disturbing, blue-eyed girl. Talk about early blooming psychopathy.

These little things are the reason I love Fallout.
