Ebs has left the building

This time for good, I'm leaving.

As some of you might know, in the last weeks I was lurking around the SKS but know it's goodbye for good.

I won't make this long so I'll end by saying .........what ever I should say to make this departure less hard, since I have no idea how to do that I'll just say goodbye and good luck, just like last time.

Your's trully: The user formerly known as ebolanow .................THE END .............................................................

Goodbye and good luck

Guess the name says it all, maybe I'll be back but for now I need a break from all of this.

Sorry for all the people that were probably counting on me, sorry if I said something that hurt someone, I didn't mean to and I'm not like that.

Since I really don't have anything else to say I'll just leave it to this and say to all of you goodbye and good luck, see you when I'll see you.

I'm out!

New blog ....kind of

So here is a new blog about ........nothing, yes, you heard me, it's about nothing.

I'm just writing this because it's been like a month since my last blog and I was like "what the hell" so here it is, a new blog.

Since I have no idea what to write about here I'll ask you guys to help me.

Tell me what you want me to write about, ask me a question or two or whatever. Give me a hand here.

Anyway, you can do anything and ask anything and I'll most likely answer in a funny (I hope) but most likely retarded way, at least I'll try :P.

So give me your best, bring it on!

Help this rat write this blog.

PS: I'll write the answers and what not in here, not in the comments .............or I don't know, I'll see about that.

I am Legend

No, this is not about the movie I am Legend!

First of all, let's start by saying that I am NOT a legend, not at all, I just thought this would be a cool name for a blog, you know, it would get people interested in it since the movie with the same name made like.....a lot of money at the box-office :P.

Anyway, I am NOT a Legend, Will Smith was also no legend in I am Legend, YES, he was cool and yes, he CAN ACT.

Darn, I said this will not be about the movie, sorry, let's start again.

What I wanted to do with this video is mark 1 years since I posted this one video here on GS (actually it's more than a year but at that time I was bussy and I did not do this). Anyway, what first started like a joke (and it still is :lol: ) turned into something.....pretty big.

Anyway, after little more than a year this rather stupid video called......well......Superman in San Andreas (actually it should have been Superman in Los Santos but what ever, I told you it's stupid) has .....well.......73,000 views, I don't know about you but that's a lot and it makes this little piece of junk the 18th most viewed user video on Gamespot....... EVER :lol:.

The short story of the video:

I had that mod installed in the game and I just saw a trailer for the Superman Returns game (that was never released on PC) and that gave me an idea. Why not make MY Superman/San Andreas version of that same trailer :P. And that's how it all started. Hell, I even used the sound from that trailer :lol:.

As you can see HERE (the original trailer) my San Andreas version doesn't look anything like it and I pretty much SUCK :lol:.

Anyway, you guys liked it (come on, be honest, there's no way this would make 73k views without you guys LOVING it :P ) and that's what counts in the end. I honestly find it rather stupid and.....dull but that's just me, hate me all you want :P.

Anyway, here it is :lol:, enjoy what will most likely remain (forever and ever) the most popular video I'll ever upload on GS:

Like my friend Icarus once said, "if you read all of this crap, you deserve a cookie".....or cake......

Hail to the king baby, The Duke is back ...and so is Lare Croft (Updated)

After 6 years of silence 3D Realms are finally showing Duke Nukem Forever............again........well........what ever.

For me this is probably the best news of the year in gaming since I'm a pretty huge fan of The Duke.

The TEASER looks pretty badass but you can't really understand much from it. We can see in it that a lot of the monster from Duke Nukem 3D are back...........and that's awesome, yeah, the "upgraded" them but if you look closely you can see that those are pretty much the same monsters from Duke Nukem 3D.

Another thing I'm excited about is the new Tomb Raider, called Underworld. This is the direct sequel of Legend (an awesome game that I really loved) and it looks SICK, really, this looks just as good (if not better) than Uncharted.

Here are some screens:

That's it for today, bye and see you tomorrow (maybe).

UPDATE: Some more stuff about Tomb Raider:Underworld :

According to PLAY, "Lara's adventure takes place after the events of Tomb Raider Legend. Her adventure will be a thrill ride for anyone new to the franchise. The emphasis is on bringing Lara's world to life, a lush, vast interactive world that reacts and remembers. It's pure woman versus wild."

"In the level where Lara explores Southern Mexico, she leaves footprints in the mud, but it's raining so they wash away. The bodies she leaves behind in combat encounters will stay, however, as will the debris from any destruction she causes."

Crystal Dynamics have also given Lara full motion capture to bring a more natural fluidity to her movements, with proper weight and secondary motion." Moreover, when Lara kneels on a muddy outcrop, only her knee will be covered in dirt and this will gradually dissipate as she continues on her journey.

And here are some more screens (right click on them and left click on "View Image" to see them in full size):

First blog after 6 months and 20 days

6 months and 20 days have passed since my last blog..............that's a lot of time, for those of you that know me, you know I'm alive, for does that don't know me, I was not dead.

For the past 6 months and 20 days I played some games (lots of games), I've seen some movies (even more), I got into trouble and I got out of trouble, I had fun and now I'm back..............bloging and stuff.

Now obviously I can't name all the games I played or all the movies I've seen, that would take a lot of time and I would have to change the name of this blog to "First blog in 6 months and 21 days"............and I don't want that, really, I don't.

So this is my first blog after.......bla bla bla............. and 20 days, I think I bored everyone enough so I guess I'll end this........

THE END (now LEAVE, seriously, go away, I don't like you)

Theif : Deadly Shadows -Overview : Chapter 2

Intro:

A major departure from the first two games in the series, Thief: Deadly Shadows was developed by Ion Storm rather than Looking Glass Studios (albeit with many of the same people). The game was powered by the Unreal-based Deus Ex: Invisible War engine. Unlike the original two titles, the third Thief game was developed simultaneously for the PC and the Xbox. Because of all these factors, Thief: Deadly Shadows (Ion Storm decided not to name the game "Thief III" for fear that it would alienate console gamers who had never played the previous two titles) was different from the first two games in the series in both appearance and gameplay. One of the game's major new features was the ability to explore the City. While previous games sent Garrett straight from mission to mission, Thief: Deadly Shadows allows him to walk the City streets between missions where he can steal from passersby, spy on the townspeople's daily lives, and search for sidequests in addition to major story missions. Unlike games such as Grand Theft Auto III, the city is not one large continuous map, but rather several small neighborhood maps connected by load zones (similar to Postal²). The game also introduced an ability to switch between first and third person views, and to flatten against walls.(This section of the overview should have been in the first Chapter , sorry for the delay ) .

Factions :


The Thief series follows the exploits of Garrett, a master thief living and working in a steampunk metropolis constantly being fought over by a corrupt aristocracy, an order of religious fanatics and a horde of vengeful woodland beings, all under the eye of a secret organization.


The Keepers :
The Keepers are an ancient sect of expert observers, dedicated to preserving balance in the world. Garrett once belonged to the organization and still makes use of the skills learned as a Keeper for his own clandestine purposes. Even though Garrett refuses further involvement with the Keepers, they inevitably manipulate him into acting out their prophecies and obscure designs in all three games.


The Order of the Hammer :
The Order of the Hammer is a technocratic religious group, also known as the Hammerites. They seek to carry out the vision of the Master Builder, their architect god, (who created and cultivated the earth with his hammer) and are the burning force of progress in the Thief world. They represent Order and Orthodox religion and zealously enforce the tenets of their faith, striving ceaselessly against criminals and other law-breakers but most especially against their long-time enemies, the Trickster-worshipping Pagans, who promote chaos and distortion. The Hammerites speak in an archaic version of the English language, much like the King James Version of the Bible.


The Order of the Vine :
The Order of the Vine, also called Pagans, represent the forces of nature and chaos in the Thief world. Nature worshippers who live in the deep forests away from the City, the Pagans shun technology and live in harmony with wild, supernatural creatures. They despise the ordinary people of the City, and are completely inimical to Hammerites and its branch Mechanists.

Chapter 3 will come soon .
