It's the whole reason I wrote the script in the first place :p

And if nobody can guess it, I won't leave another cryptic clue then. Zoey has 3 hands in the No Mercy poster.

i probably will buy it but not for the game itself, just the online component.

i own HL1 and HL2 and a stack of mods. i've never actually played the single player in HL1 and i played HL2 for about 20 minutes just to look around. it's all about the mods and online. i'm hoping this game will be good online.

I've only just played this after having the installed the demo for so long and so far my experience has been a bit mixed. On the upside, the game does throw in a lot of zombies, I've lost count the number of times I nearly died if one of my team mates hadn't fired a shot at the right time in my direction. I do like the fact that your name comes up when you've killed one of the 4 main zombies, such as The Smoker or Witch. However, they're are annoying, especially The Boomer when it explodes on you and all you see in front of you is hordes and hordes of zombies, but it does add to the gaming experience. I also feel the sound effects and ambience are very good, as it instantly reminds me of the Resident Evil games, I made a mistake of playing the game at night and when I heard the cries of The Witch, I chicken out by running away :blush: :laugh: .

On the downside, some of the weapons are a bit underpowered in my opinion but that does add to the whole survivor aspect. Also, I have to admit that playing by yourself is no fun at all. This game is best played with your friends, the problem with me though is that most of my friends are either busy studying or busy working :laugh: .

It's certainly a game that I would buy in the future, it's just that I seriously do not have the time to enjoy it. Right now, I'm just waiting for NFS: Undercover as I can certainly sneak in some time playing it when I'm working :p .

Played the demo a couple of times, offline and online. My thoughts:

- I still get a chuckle out of those movie posters. Just like I was laughing quite hard at the TF2 freezecam shots when I saw them for the first time. :p

- I haven't managed to survive through Expert on the second demo level. First time going through it, the game threw a Tank inside the subway car and I went down. Another time, it spawned a witch near the subway cars and I went "hmmmm, let me check out the cor- OH S***!" and got raped. Other times, boomers kept spawning and that took out my team. The last time, while playing online, in the warehouse on the second level a friend decapitated and killed me while a hunter pinned me down. :pinch:

- Last night while playing on an online server, one person would go into a lagging loop. They'd get the reconnecting message over and over while everyone was alright. While it was doing that for me the console turned into some huge glitched up mess with giant pixellated fonts.

- Had two ###### do nothing but teamkill at the spawn. Kicking in this game is effective and fast.

- I heard there's a server browser, will that be selectable from the game's UI?

- This must be Valve's most consolized UI ever. At least it doesn't entirely suck, but a UI more along their other Source games would be better.

- I find myself charging into battle too frequently and unnecessarily. So I end up attracting the horde and getting friendly fire from teammates. :whistle:

- There was this one game last night where at the first level, this one guy ran FAR ahead of us and set off a car alarm while we were all still cooped up inside the house. :laugh:

Yeah just noticed that and ordered a copy! :) Save ?10 over the steam price. Why is it released on the 21st for the DVD copy when it is released on the 17th on steam?

Because it encourages people to buy the Steam version rather than waiting and thus they get more ???.

    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original

      Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.

      Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
