if im singing along im usually really feeling the song so I don't want to pull myself out of it with pesky considered thoughts, just let myself step into the role of the performer. They wrote the song to share a feeling, I'm embodying the song to enjoy those feelings, play along.

how did this get necroed?

Definitely holding the MGS manuals up. MGS4 had full comic panels for control tutorials.
I always loved the Ratchet Manuals because they were long ways and had high res renders of all the weapons

queen's dead. parkour.

I've always admired Drakengard 3's credits for listing everyone in Alphabetical order regardless of position.

Our game has a little credits moment at the end to play through, always felt kind of weird to me that most games slam into film style credits at the end with no gameplay.

ah yes Sam Fisher's icon green predator laser. The defining iconography of this character. That his laser is three green lights.

This trailer was drinking "True Detective" then Dennis Hopper walked in, smacked it out of your hand and yelled "Fuck that Shit, Papst Blue Ribbon."

Hi Duders!

I'm a recent product of the good old student debt factory - Art School! My time there was an incredible experience, where I thankfully was immersed in a diverse community of some of the best people I have met to this day. With interests and lives that broke me out of the stasis bubble I had been trapped in. But to my surprise there weren't very many people I could relate to about video games, despite being surrounded by creative nerds. That's were you all come in, and where this tribute piece comes from.

This website about "video games," its community, and extended family of personalities kept me buoyed to my passion to this medium. Helped me though some tough times in that way that only an anonymous group of weirdos on the internet can. During the last all-nighter, the final crunch, of the game I was developing as my capstone project; discovering the Quiet Man together kept me from breaking down complete. I feel like there is some kind of irony to that?

So then a short explanation on these things and then I'll be off. E3 is my favorite time of year, gamer Christmas and all that. Cool and crazy weapons are one of my favorite things in games. The artists that Bungie brings in to model weapons for Destiny have been an inspiration since the launch of that title, and is the kind of work I hope to be doing in my career. *Fingers crossed*

During the time I was working on these the ESA showed its whole ass and gun violence continued to be a problem in the US. I hope you can enjoy the references despite that. We got some of Dan's favorite the Red 9 from RE4, Lockdown padlocks, ect. Don't want this to turn into a rambling list.

If everything worked right, below should be an embed of the 3D model to gawk at your leisure. There are some fun Easter eggs hidden on there! (no embed - just a link)

Sign Off, BYE.

I am playing Doom 3 for the first time in anticipation of DOOM:Eternal. I've been mulling over this idea that Doom 3 makes more sense in the linage of Quake more than it does Doom. Technologically it is more centered around advanced lighting graphics similar to original QUAKE in its day. Although primitive by today's standards still stand out. I just can't think of another game that it lit like Doom 3. Additionally the monster designs are gross, and kind of unimaginative, in the way QUAKE's enemies are. That's just what I've been thinking as I play though Doom 3.

ps. fuck that crane game, what is with that Duke Nukem Forever trash?
