Silent Hill 2 Dog Ending

WiseMonk — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 17:07:38 +0000

Just the other day I knew about a ghost town in Pennsylvania, named Centralia, that is (literally) burning inside. I’ve already posted about it.

It’s impossible not to make the parallelism with Silent Hill.

And now that I’m talking about my favorite game (one way or another I will always find the way to end talking about that game), I just remember an ending of Silent Hill 2 that maybe you haven’t seen.

It seems even those guys get bored…

Street Fighter IV

WiseMonk — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 17:12:00 +0000

As I told you in my post about Halo 3 Recon, someone wants to keep me busy.

I remember I was just a teenager when I played Street Fighter for the first time.

Almost two decades after, Capcom shows us how that the end of this saga is still far away.

Good news for the bored people like me.

Halo 3 Recon

WiseMonk — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 21:46:15 +0000

Ok, it’s official. There are a lot of people out there who don’t want me to work.

And this time I’m not talking about the Guys of Liquid Web.

Yes, it’s a Halo 3 Expansion.

The bad news: it seems this time we will not see the Master Chief.

The good (great in fact) news: it’s a Halo 3 Expansion!!!

It’s time to kill them all (and again, I’m not talking about the Liquid Web guys, free time has it’s pros after all).

The new face of Lara Croft

WiseMonk — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 18:45:17 +0000

Since I was a child, I’ve always wanted to be like Indiana Jones. You know, the hat, the ruins, the whip…the women.

But how could you want to see Indi once again after you meet Lara Croft?

Soon, a new Tomb Rider game will arrive, and it brings to us a new face. She is Allison Carroll, a british former gymnast…and she is gorgeous.

I definitely want to drink a beer with her…

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed

WiseMonk — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 18:32:12 +0000

Hi John. I heard you like star wars, so, i think you’ll gona love this.

“The next chapter in the Star Wars saga, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed tells the story of Darth Vader’s Secret Apprentice, a mysterious figure who has been trained by the menacing Sith Lord to hunt down the last of the Jedi.

Set in the dark times between Episodes III and IV, the story is both a continuation of the prequel trilogy-exploring the aftermath of Order 66 and focusing on the continued evolution of Darth Vader- and a direct bridge to the Classic trilogy. The Force Unleashed will forever change the Star Wars galaxy and lead directly to events in Star Wars: A New Hope.

Developed under the direction of George Lucas, the storyline for The Force Unleashed remains a closely-guarded secret. However, it has been revealed that the Secret Apprentice’s journey takes him across the galaxy– from the Wookie home world of Kashyyyk to the junkyard planet Raxus Prime and the mushroom-covered Felucia.

He will be aided in his dangerous missions by loyal sidekick PROXY-a prototype holodroid with amazing abilities-and a beautiful Imperial pilot named Juno Eclipse.

The apprentice will clash with powerful Force Wielders, including the spirited Zabrak warrior Maris Brood, and General Rahm Kota, a hard-boiled Jedi Soldier who senses that the Apprentice is destined to become something far greater than just Darth Vader’s servant” (taken from the game official site).

It seems it’s going to be a great game.

Diablo is coming…

WiseMonk — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 22:01:14 +0000

I use to say that to my mates in the office when I hear the beep of my boss’ truck alarm. Last week I said that to John will he was smoking…I didn’t knew that it was one of my boss’ cuban cigars, so, I didn’t understand quite well why he started to choke.

But what I meant that time was that a sequel of one of the best games ever (Diablo) is coming. Diablo III will be a great way to spend my time. When your dedicated server work as well as mine, you think that at last you’ll have some free time for yourself. And the first days is a great thing. But after a few weeks, when you start to think that getting married is a great idea or that you should run your own web hosting company, it’s time to find out what to do before you go crazy.

What could be better than a great video game to save you from madness? The bad one, I mean. Because I’m sure I’ll go insane killing all that demons. Well, I just hope that blizzard programmers don’t take too much time to finish it. While, this is a brief resume of what will come…

“Two decades have passed since the demonic denizens, Diablo, Mephisto, and Baal, wandered the world of Sanctuary in a vicious rampage to shackle humanity into unholy slavery. Yet for those who battled the Prime Evils directly, the memory fades slowly and the wounds of the soul still burn.

When Deckard Cain returns to the ruins of Tristram’s Cathedral seeking clues to new stirrings of evil, a comet from the heavens strikes the very ground where Diablo once entered the world. The comet carries a dark omen in its fiery being and it calls the heroes of Sanctuary to defend the mortal world against the rising powers of the Burning Hells – and even the failing luminaries of the High Heavens itself”.
