In Other news - I had a dream!

Posted by Warlin on July 13, 2007, 12:37 a.m.

Well I saw the Sony Press Conference for E3 and by god was it a good one. Go dig up some info on it if you didn't see it. The future of Sony's new system is already looking bright.

<b>Warlin has a dream.</b>

Recently I downloaded and played my OneDay game… At first I remember the game as being absolute crap and an utter waste of time to make. Then I played it…. I was surprised! It wasn't half bad. I really thought it was a total bomb. I played it as far as I could, then I ran into an unavoidable error in the game so I had to take it off of 64Digits. I can't find another copy of the .gm6 file so I don't plan on fixing it. That game however… got me to thinking… I'm no good at making rpgs. Platformers. Cheesy platformers. That was what I was going to make next. But first I need an idea… a concept of some sort. After staying up until 3 in the morning, watching T.V. and playing RE4 I had a dream. Weather it was fully induced by RE4 or a mix of everything I came up with the idea for "Paranoia".

<b>Paranoia</b>

Picture this, just like it was in my dream. A dark and grungy future. The sun is almost never bright as smog clouds block the sky. For all you know you're alone and its starting to seep in. The world everything around you is dead and theres no one left except the giant machines which keep billowing out thick smoke clouds that block the sun. You have a gun and a knife and you know how to use them… Good thing you'll never use them right? You close your eyes and remember what happened to the world. Nuclear holocaust. Near all life on earth was wiped out. It was all those damn aliens faults. If they had never come here no one would have any issues. Suddenly you hear a noise. Its not you and its not the machines. You take out your knife and hope that its someone friendly…. you hope. A screaming deformed monster rushes towards you. Its skin is all missing and from what you can tell its nothing but bones that emit a green sickly pus that smells of rot… You remember what these are. Hybrids. You waste your whole clip on it and stab it several times before it dies. You sigh as you hear several more of the sounds. This isn't Paranoia. You're not alone.

Thats Paranoia. Thats the tale of one humans will to survive in a world devastated by interstellar war and inhabited by mutated deformed creatures that just happen to be hybrids of two alien races. Neither of which he likes. Its time to saddle up and get ready for a fight because its going to be one long winter and tons of shotgun shells laying on the floor.

<b>Games!</b>

The hunt for Armored Core 4-

Well everyone knows I love armored core only because of the robot fighting and explosions but thats not the point. I like robots! Anyways… Soon I'm going to walmart to see if they have it in or not. If they don't then I really… REALLY need to find a gamestop.

Metal Gear Solid 4 -

At the sony conference they showed a 7 minute long trailer of MGS4. Mmm… MGS… The trailer consisted of The colonel telling solid snake to assassinate liquid before he gains control of a massive army. Meryl decides to help snake. Her and her unit are ready to ambush Liquid at any time… to bad its not that easy. It never is. After all hell breaks loose it shows a fight between Vamp and Raiden. Gnarly fight too. Raiden is grabbed by Vamp and stabs through himself in order to get to Vamp. Afterwards he pulls the sword out and continues fighting like nothing happened. Wow…. That is gnarly.

Intercept -

A vertical scroller where the objective is to destroy the main battleship. I played it for awhile and the highest score I could get was 454,000. That doesn't seem like much but for a game that hard I personally thought it was. You have three weapons and you have to use all of them to overcome the battleships strategy. Its addicting for awhile but it can also make you swear like never before. Check it out at

If you like vertical scrollers you won't be sorry… Unless you know… you're bad at them ;D!

Well thats all I wanted to say today. Look for Paranoia soon if I can get it to work right.

bright? it's looking pretty dim if you ask me, bright for the gamer, but hahahaha, sony's losing millions of dollars on the PS3, they've sunk so low it's nearly impossible to go back up… selling a blu-ray player for 600 bucks? HA! To gain money, the PS3 has to be like 2000 dollars…

Get your facts straight next time, MrPacman.

MrPacman, you do realise that videogame companies make alot of money of software right?

I know for certain it doesn't cost £40 to produce a DVD, print a small manual, and a case.
