Alan Wake slated for PC 2012

Alan Wake slated for PC 2012:

Oh my god. Yes! I have an Xbox but I’m primarily a PC gamer - I only play Xbox games if there is no chance of it coming to PC (like Red Dead Redemption or Fable II) or if the game just plays better with a controller, like a lot of platformers.

World of Scriptcraft

Thu, 01 Dec 2011 09:58:38 -0500

World of Scriptcraft:

Scriptcraft is a server with a simple goal – to create an accurate and functional classic warcraft environment. We are not interested in vote ladders or money making with donations, our aim is to create a server with working raids of the same difficulty and quality that we remember them in vanilla, when raiding was at its finest.

Looks intriguing. I’m not a World of Warcraft fan but if you liked it back in the good ol’ days of Vanilla WoW, you might want to check this out.

M&Ms Droplets

now that’s what photography should be about… not a black and white picture of someone’s shoes

The top picture is full of M&M’s. They’re bule, red, orange, green, yellow, and brown.

But in the bottom picture we clearly see there’s white, pink, and even purple candies in the bowl.

The bottom picture is of gumballs! This concludes that the bottom picture is not taken with that camera at all. I’d even go as far to say that it was edited in photoshop with a filter!

Yes the above image and the below image are not the same photograph being taken. This is rather obvious.

BUT Mr. Wright there is one thing you overlooked. Examine the droplets on the bottom image. None of them are from the same angle. This is a natural occurance when looking through water droplets.

Is it not possible that the photographer took the second image first?

Would it not be more probable that when asked HOW it was taken he/she took the above image of their setup Using M&Ms, something much more common in a household rather than many gumballs, something they may have just bought for the original photo?

So to claim it was not taken with the same camera is indeed a long shot Mr. Wright.

Thank you for your time.

Really Edgeworth, is that you’re argument.

Aren’t you overlooking the fact that there are no pink M&Ms. This proves undeniably that these are not, in fact M&Ms, but some other kind of candy.

And one other thing, I find it highly improbable that not one piece of candy is facing so the M logo is on the candy.

So in conclusion, there is no way these are possibly M&Ms.

hey mister I think you’re confuuuuuuused. Edgeworth agreed that they weren’t M&M’s. He was just refuting that there is a possibility there wasnt any photoshop used and that the above image was only depicting the method used in the bottom image.

I think someone might be getting a little senile hehehe

Everyone seems to be walking around the accusations by examining whether they are or aren’t M&Ms. That is not what’s important. What we should be looking at is instead, the so-called droplets, compared to the background image.

The angles within the droplets do not realistically coincide with one another! As well, I don’t spend much time staring at drops of water, but I can surely say I’ve never seen such clarity in any water droplet. Also, as in the former picture, there is an obvious fogging on the glass, surely caused by whichever process was used to spray the water. Where is the fog?

On top of all that, the drops are amazingly tiny compared to the anonymous-candy. One could argue the sheet is further away than in the ‘example’ pic, but the blurring of the candies definitely objects to that. We could also try to assume that the spray method used in the ‘original’ photo caused much tinier water spots, but are we to believe that the photographer was so careless that they couldn’t recreate the correct droplet size in the ‘example’? Surely, they should have been able to cause at least a closer resemblance.

Sure seems like they went out of their way to showcase the methodology of how the photograph was taken, yet neglected to go far enough to ensure it could be a like-comparison?

Rather unlikely!

Actually, Mr. Godot!!

Well, according to the properties of light and the way it’s refracted…

If you mirror it the right way, they line up just fine!

Aah… these M&M’s droplets

So colourful… reminds me of the days of my youth!

the red ones remind me of my hemorroids… *cough*

I have found some new evidence though the original image source suggesting this second image has been tampered with!

This image clearly shows candies that correspond to the colours commonly found in M & M s… The edge of the bowl is visible, as are some ‘M’ symbols, if you look closely.

This suggests the second image in the original is perhaps just a fabrication based off of the second.

Therefore…

It is clearly a fraud!

You shouldn’t jump the “fraud” gun just yet, Wright. If your source is really the corresponding photo to the first, then the “gumball” picture in question might not be at fault. To put it bluntly, it might just be a copycat.

To put it another way, this could just be a case of a mistaken and mismatched photoset..

With all the evidence provided, I think it’s safe to assume this case could be solved: The candies in the second photograph are not M&Ms, but the photo itself was not exactly tampered with. It was just a completely separate photo of separate candies, possibly just misplaced in this set by the original poster, who was completely unaware of the mismatch!

Hold it right there everyone.

There is..

A PUZZLE HIDDEN IN THAT BOWL OF MISLEADING CANDY.

One more free game! Spelunky is a loot-driven platformer type game, a bit roguelike in the randomized levels and treasure-hunting, but more of a platformer. The graphics are utterly adorable and the game looks incredibly polished and fun.

“Legends speak of a Colossal Cave that extends deep underground, so twisted by time that its passages shift like the sand under which it lies… the Cave is said to be filled with fabulous treasures, but also incredible danger!”

Try it out!

One game I forgot to post during Free Games Day yesterday was Desktop Dungeons, a roguelike that is highly recommended. Desktop Dungeons features the usual random levels, but each one is about ten minutes so that you can finish it while taking a break throughout your day! The graphics are nice and it looks like a solid game in general. The full game costs money, but the alpha is free to play forever! Go get your hands on this fun game.

3DS is comparable to DS in sales

3DS is comparable to DS in sales:

Within the same timeframe, of course. I was never concerned about the 3DS - if you recall, the DS started out slowly as well with only Mario 64 at first. Looks like the price reduction was a good move on Nintendo’s part. Now I just have to wait for Paper Mario 3D…

Nexon is known for Maple Story, a popular MMO. It has created countless free MMORPGs to play with your friends, including Dragon Nest, made popular by Something Awful, and bloody and graphically beautiful Vindictus. Vindictus features everything you’d expect in a solid MMO, like crafting, fishing, customizing your gear, going on quests, forming parties and guilds, and so on, except that it’s free! Like all Nexon games, there’s also the opportunity to purchase (with real money) better equipment or fun costumes, but you don’t have to if you don’t want to. Grab your friends and try out Vindictus or one of the other Nexon MMOs!

Wed, 26 Oct 2011 10:27:02 -0400

Professor Layton’s London Life is a free game bundled with Professor Layton and the Last Spectre. I would love to talk about Professor Layton and the Last Spectre, but today I’m focusing on free games, so I’ll save that for a later post (though I will say BUY THIS GAME NOW, especially if you like puzzles/logic!). London Life allows you to choose your avatar, and then explore Little London (completely with teensy double decker buses, little trains, and mini red mailboxes) while getting a job, buying new clothes, and making friends. It’s a truly sweet RPG developed by the developer of Mother 3 and Magical Vacation.

They also claim that this RPG has over 100 hours of gameplay, which I am sorry to say I doubted. I started playing a bit of it last night and I can confirm that there is definitely tons to do and see. The graphics are, quite frankly, adorable, and it is extremely fun. You can customize your clothes, too, which is just great.

Unfortunately, London Life will only be available in the Japanese, North American, and Australian releases. No idea why it isn’t in the European version.

I suppose this isn’t really a free game, but it IS a really nice piece of bonus content to an already amazing game. Check it out!

Digital: A Love Story

Wed, 26 Oct 2011 09:57:19 -0400

Digital: A Love Story:

Digital: A Love Story is an incredible visual novel set in 1988 back when the Internet was a series of BBSes. Don’t let the 1988 graphics fool you - the plot is captivating, the characters are interesting, and the storytelling is incredibly immersive. The game is very short and free, so what have you got to lose? By far one of the best visual novels I have ever played.
