Part 12: Bonus #01: Promotional Wallpapers!
I figured I'd throw together a few funny things we found in the Limited Edition version of Lost Planet that Alchanii owns.Bonus - Promotional Wallpapers!
So here is a down-res'd version of one of their promotional desktop wallpapers. These are made to show off the game and entice you to buy it.
Let's take a closer look.
Mmm, nice textures.
Super cool pre-order bonus: A gun that shoots pixels.
This is actually an example of cut content. It was an Akrid disguising itself as T-ENG. The only way to tell them apart is the fact that the disguised Akrid floats.
This meant you had to check every single little pile of T-ENG you wanted to pick up, tedium ad infinitum.
And here I was sitting, scratching my noggin' thinking this was pre-rendered.
Oh, hold on a minute. I wonder if their website is still active?
quote:
Are you an addict to pc games? If you have the craze to play games then you also suffer from its side effects making it easier for you to recognize this condition by yourself. Similar to any addiction, the gaming mania manifests itself as a sudden and constant craving for playing your favorite game when you are away from it. If it were in one’s control then they would even stop eating and drinking or taking toilet breaks from their gaming sessions.
These individuals are truly addicted to their PC games and need to be weaned off slowly. This can be achieved through the practice of selective control. Instead of stopping play altogether, which shall cause a lot of distress and stop you from concentrating on any work, you should aim to increase the time duration between each break. When you get up to stop playing, take a few minutes longer than before. Continue this procedure for a few days and keep increasing the duration slowly.
By the end of the first week, you should have gotten enough control on this addiction to think of a little bit more prolonged separation from computer games. This is the moment to actually practice refraining from playing. It shall be hard for the first two days but after that you should no longer have the urge to play games. You may indulge in playing games once in a while but do not go back to the state of a gaming maniac as it shall become difficult to get de-addicted the second time.
Note how the date of the post will say April 30th even though my screenshot shows the 28th. It will auto-update every day. Gotta stay relevant!
But let's get back to the real topic at hand here. Are you addicted to video games? When you play Call of Duty do you feel violent? Do you often lose hours and days to Civilization 5?
You may have a problem. Seek guidance.
Oh yeah.. anyone want some sick AOL Instant Messenger display pics!!
Also it seems at one point Luka was decidedly more asian and had normal coloured hair. I guess that was too wild for western audiences.
Well that's all for now folks! There's more Limited Edition content to go over including something dubbed "Webisodes". I'll see if we can work that into some kind of bonus videos.
Otherwise, Update #2 should be up on Friday.
