It's Up!!



Finally, the official trailer for The Walking Dead. Looks pretty great.

28 Days Later, on one minute, in one take

Very clever bit of fun.

SPOILERS, obviously!

Walking Dead - San Diego Comic Con Trailer

It's a little grainy, but it's certainly watchable.  Looks good to me.

The greatest video game never made:

Even though this sprite-animated cartoon looks just like you're watching a video game, I recommend watching it all the way through. It's like underground video game psychedelia! Features guest appearance by Christopher Walken and John Goodman from The Big Lebowski!







Oh, and if you type "Paul Robertson" into YouTube you'll get all kinds of other freaky stuff he's done.

Happy Easter

Neill Cameron's A-Z of Awesomeness

Guy did a full alphabet of pop culture awesomeness, the full list of which you can see HERE.

And here's a few samples:

The Crazies

Trailer for the remake of a lesser known Romero film. Slightly zombie-ish in tone, but more like an outbreak of insanity.



Okay, that last scene was bad comedy, but otherwise...looked creepy.

L4D2 DLC

AKA "Left 4 Dead 2 downloadable content"

Sounds cool to me:

Valve is showing the first downloadable content pack for Left 4 Dead 2, "The Passing," at today's X10 event. The new campaign is now aiming for a March release, the start of new content for the zombie apocalypse shooter.

In "The Passing," players will meet up with the original Left 4 Dead's survivors, Francis, Bill, Zoey and Louis, who will appear as non-playable characters. Valve's Chet Faliszek told Kotaku that Left 4 Dead 2's survivors will rendezvous with the original quartet later on in the campaign, and that they will aid Coach, Nick, Ellis and Rochelle in finishing the third map in the campaign.

"The Passing" will also add one new uncommon common infected type, which Valve is calling the Fallen Survivor. These new zombies, humans who erroneously believed themselves to be immune to the infection, will sometimes drop items when killed, like health kits or ammo.

That new add-on will offer an opportunity to see more of the original cast's character traits, Faliszek said, storylines that will likely be explored in the Left 4 Dead digital comic book that will arrive after "The Passing." That comic will be illustrated by Powers artist Michael Avon Oeming.

Then, about a "month or so" after that, Valve plans to release an add-on for the first Left 4 Dead, an episode that will tell the story of the original survivors' journey to "The Passing." That unnamed Left 4 Dead add-on will only be playable on the original game, not in the sequel.

Valve says it plans to release "The Passing" on Xbox 360 and PC in "late March" with more details on the Left 4 Dead downloadable content coming soon.


Man, now I need to go buy the original game!

Five glorious minutes of Ellis from L4D2

Ellis is my chosen character in Left 4 Dead 2. His hillbilly stories are no small part of it:

And now for some Disney horror


Disney's the last place you'd look to for horror, but it seems like they're going there. There's a new Wii-exclusive game coming out under the working title of EPIC MICKEY. It features dystopian Disney settings and eerie, steampunk versions of their characters. I'm posting early concept art for it, and here's the game's premise:

Before Walt Disney created Mickey Mouse, there was Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. That's actual history, not just some made-up shit, but the game's using his obscurity as its springboard. The conceit is that once upon a time, Mickey inadvertantly spilled paint thinner onto the magical model of Oswald's world, unknowingly leaving it scarred and twisted. Mickey goes on to fame and fortune, but Oswald and his people languish in this hellish Disney World, culminating in the kidnapping of Mickey to take revenge on him in their world.

Here are some glimpses of that world...
