@Jonn: Wow. Someone else who remembers Daily Victim. God I loved those stories. The Sinistar Burial, The DDR Romeo and Juliet, The epic that was the war between the Windows and Unix System Administrators.

Prince of Persia and The Wall Run (Vertical and Horizontal)

I lament the lost art of video game manuals. They used to provide so much background information and detail. They were sometimes written "in game world" which turned them into artifacts of a kind. I still treasure many of mine.

I suspect I will be picking a few of these up.

@selderane: Its never explained, but between the main game and the taxidermist, Madison seems to wind up in mortal danger surprisingly often. Like, getting kidnapped on the show 24 often. Of course in my play-through shes turned out to be a "serial 'serial killer' killer"

@pressstart: The games have existed for years, and no name was ever given to the prince. He was just the Prince of Persia. The movie studios couldn't even wait through the m*****f***ing trailer to give him a name.

@Muskrat 42: I assume that the different hair-dos are to differentiate the Alice clones.

@battlescarSS: Meh.: Big fan of A Perfect Circle. Though its kind of a strange and/or lazy choice to use it in this trailer. It was used in Resident Evil 2 (The worst of the resident evil movies)

I thoroughly enjoyed it personally. Is it perfect? Is it everything I ever hoped it could be? Not quite. But its a damn sight more interesting than many things I've spent $5 on.

Planescape Torment and a System Shock need to be on there somewhere.

It sounds like they weren't even really "LARPing" it was more a competition of poorly planned sketches.

Ahh my Alma Mater...on occasion you make me proud...

Cute. But was I the only one bothered by the fact that the controls weren't right? In heavy rain, the controls corresponded more directly to what was happening on the screen. And in this they had almost every button press a timed event event when it didn't make sense for it to be, and using combinations of buttons for…

@SionGWN: Emphatically yes.

PC Gaming. The once and future king.

I really rather enjoyed the movie. Especially the carwash and bonesaw sequences.

@NightMystic: It took me a minute. I was thinking: "Thats some pretty damn good bump mapping..."

@Ted: Obvious Penny Arcade Reference.

@ShaggE: Restarreded: I think (I'm not watching it, just judging from the fuzzy picture and the description) its even got one of the same characters.

@ClaudioIphigenia: Not terribly accurate. In the game, the entire dagger, especially the blade, looks like its made from/around some sort of crystal.
