Have you ever wanted to play the posessed kid in the excorcist?


Well, with Lucius released today we won't have that problem... I should've asked do you have serial killing fantasies & such because by looking at the trailer i don't think there's much else in the game besides murdering your entire family and estate staff. If you haven't met lovely Lucius yet he's a young/cuddly/cute/black haired/psycho/murderer/prodigy/demons spawn/ oh noes why daddy did you make a deal with the devil haven't you seen the exorcist by now/kid from the exorcist. I personally can't wait to get home from my job selling cell phones... because yes in real life I'm the friendly guy trying to help you out on the other side of the counter, because you messed up your own phone & your screaming at me. But now I get to imagine everyone  as the staff of my dad who did a deal with the devil to get rich oh and I have to murder you... sorry it always happens in this business.

The Walking Dead FPS is renamed to Survival Instincts

I'm on Horror/Zombie overload this year & i love it. A lot of naysayers say this will either make or break the genre but i think we need to be a little more positive than that. We need to nurture these game developers by telling them what we like and don't like about their games & together we can grow as one big zombie family circus.


On the bright side Amc's The Walking Dead shooter just got a new name Survival Instincts...sounds pretty hardcore if you want my advice but only time will tell. I can't wait to hang out with Daryl & Merle how about you guys?


''According to AMC, Terminal Reality will use photos of the winners “to create a unique character whose backstory and chilling death scene may be encountered by players during The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct.” Each contest winner will appear in a different level of the game, and “there will even be a special challenge to track down all the winners.” Fans will have a chance to win during every episode between now and Sunday, December 2nd.''





''As described by Activision, Survival Instinct is “a do-whatever-you-need-to-survive first-person action game that brings the deep, character-driven world of AMC’s Emmy Award-winning TV series onto console gaming systems and the PC in a frightening, new way. The game puts players in the role of the mysterious, crossbow-wielding survivor Daryl Dixon, alongside his overbearing brother Merle, on a haunting, unforgiving quest across the Georgia countryside to reach the supposed safety of Atlanta.” ''

The Dead Linger Alpha Release Survival Guide


With The Dead linger on it's way very shortly us lingerer's get an extra early treat in the form of a super useful Alpha Survival Guide. Which contains everything you need to know about surviving  & what to expect out of the alpha etc.. I hope to see you all on the 31 st, I will be on & we will be 4 strong on a server. The game releases at 12:00 AM MST which is 3 here in Montreal, be there or be a square zombie.


"Alpha Release Survival Guide

With the pending release of The Dead Linger Alpha scheduled for October 31st, 2012, just a few short days away, we’ve compiled a neat little guide for you to prepare you for the release. In this guide, we’ll go over how you’ll download the game, what you’ll find when you run it, and how you can be better prepared to play and playtest to the best of your abilities. We’ll be including sections ranging from how to kill zombies, how to group up with friends, and how to submit bugs and feedback to us so we can make the game better and improve the experience."



"The forests are more secluded; some might even call it peaceful. While the zombies are scarce out there, the supplies are scarcer still. Be sure to pack your bags before heading out. The world is massive, and infinite.

As infinite as the undead."


"Containment didn’t stop them. DOVRAC hit the infection hard, and shut down and sealed off the population centers where they could, but it spread inside the quarantine. It was all over in a matter of weeks. The humans fight an uphill battle against extinction, all but you. Knowing how to deal with the zombies is one of the many keys to your survival. There is only one law in this undead world – the only true dead is a headless zed. Destroy the brain to kill these ghouls. There is no other option."


READ THE REST HERE YOUR SAFETY DEPENDS ON IT

Collector's Edition of The Walking Dead the game



By now you must know I truelly enjoy horror in all its mediums. My first foray in the world of comic books was Robert Kirkman's The Walking Dead & to this day no other publication has had the same effects on me, just turn the comic around and read what it says.

''In a world ruled by the dead we are forced to finally start living''

Telltale has put out their own version of the walking dead story & it was great, a big advancement for interactive story-telling adventure games. You feel the dept of the story & the characters just oozing through the screen, a real winner, Robert Kirkman should be proud that one of hist creations culminated in two videogames, a show & my all time favorite the original comic books. Since the telltalle games were so popular they will see the light of day in physical form of a regular & collector's issue on decmeber 4th. For 29.99 you get just the episodes, for the prenimu of 69.99$ you get an Exclusive Compendium one issue of the first 48 comic books & a really sweet case for it. Check it out below, pre-orderable at Gamestop in the continental U.S. no word for now about Kanadia.

HELP !!! : Chucky Kickstarter needs our Help

When being chased by Detective Mike Norris (Chris Sarandon), serial killer and voodoo practitioner Charles Lee "Chucky" Ray (Brad Dourif), is shot and mortally wounded, and hides in a toy store. Before dying, he finds boxes of talking "Good Guy" dolls, and uses a voodoo ritual to transfer his soul into one of them. The doll is found by a homeless peddler, and sold to Karen Barclay, who gives him to her son Andy as a birthday gift.


Remember Chucky, the ill fated mongrel loved killer doll from the 90's? I do, actually I had a Chucky doll growing up (kinda morbid when you think of it), if you dont know about Chucky he was the star in over 6 movies. He even has his own videogame coming out but they need our help bad to finish the project. Head over the their kickstarter HERE & pledge some gazillion of dollars I WANT TO PLAY THIS NOW.

More Dayz screenshots game decorating 101

Good Morning fellow survivors,

Today we have more Dayz screenshots to keep you patiently waiting while you wait for the dead linger to release on the 31st or the war z to fix up their bugs in the alpha.





''One caveat I forgot last time, the interiors do look very clean. Adding gore or deterioration can quickly be overdone, so we feel our first task is to create the interiors and ensure we are happy with the gameplay and quality of the basic texture work - then we will go through to add elements more authentic to the situation.''




''In these screenshots the greater range of buildings that now have interiors is displayed, from the large office buildings, to the hospitals, metalwork factories, through to small cottages''


 ''The first shot is a sneak peak at an entirely new area created on the map by Ivan and Martin, the two developers at Bohemia who are currently being held in Greece''



Looks like they took my tips the interiors look  like real rural Russian housing GOOD JOB!
