There was an easter egg that they couldn't fit on the discs (Yes they ran out of space on all seven) where Adriane was supposed to jump up and shimmy along some pipes. Instead you could try to jump the gap, it then cut to a green screen with her on a mat and the director asking what she thought she was doing and her saying something like I thought I could make it. I could swear it used to be downloadable from this website http://anthonylarme.tripod.com/phantas/phantas.html but I just couldn't find it. Tried doing a search and coming up empty as well. Would recommend Black Dahlia for a better FMV thriller/horror game or Amber for a more Myst type experience.

While I may not agree with some of you, especially in the politics forum, I can at least count on civil conversation. Unlike those fine folks over at Gameguru who have a hard time grasping anything resembling coherent language. Here's just a taste from a topic discussing the Dragon Age facebook mini game. zarlin (07:57 PM CET - Nov,03 2010 ) and they just getting started...fucking faceshit Koogle (03:38 AM CET - Nov,04 2010 ) Is it not obvious that this is just a marketing ploy to use the scummy lying government/agency infiltrated facespook snitch and spy platform as a means of dragging and enticing new customers to the game through sly friend application marketing tactics. I really hope this doesn't become more of trend with game companies supporting the secret government intelligence scumbags and its infestation within major social spying network fads like facespook. If they really wanted to offers fans and gamers with a spin off a Dragons age browser game then they could have done it easily enough without embedding itself to this social entity. Still it will only be gullible gamers and collectivist drones falling for this PR stunt, the browser game will undoubtedly be shit. raven99 (04:40 AM CET - Nov,04 2010 ) Koogle> Is it not obvious that this is just a marketing ploy to use the scummy lying government/agency infiltrated facespook snitch and spy platform as a means of dragging and enticing new customers to the game through sly friend application marketing tactics.

Do you realize how stupid the garbage you type makes you appear? Conspiracy theorist are idiots. I mean i hate the government just as much as anyone, but you people just sound like raving idiots. At least you're consistent with always having something idiotic to say I'll give you that. Baconnaise (06:41 AM CET - Nov,04 2010 ) I have a hard time believing just about any type of conspiracy theory involving the government. If I'm an idiot I very much doubt that the government is free of them as well. The evidence that plenty of morons or people that just don't give a shit work for the government is pretty concrete. Koogle (11:51 AM CET - Nov,04 2010 ) @raven99 laugh it up fool, clearly your blinded ignorance has gotten the better of you.. conspiracy theory? sad, go do some fucking research. @Baconnaise when I say government I just mean they get a massive pro portion of their funding for 'national security'/'intelligence operations' (total lawless and legally protected scumbags, if you think what they do is of any benefit to the betterment of society take a closer look at what they are really doing.) All of which is helped and covered up through the governments ie tax schemes and controlled lamestream media deception. Those in government are just educated fools with a good talent for lying in your face, so I don't mean to say they organize much of anything, frankly they couldn't organize shit all unless some corporation/shadow council dictates to them what they are to do and say! So they are just puppets for those who control them through lobbying, money and blackmail. The average braindead voting idiot only foolishly abdicates their own responsibility onto some fukwit politician. Should know by now, that most of them barely fucking read the stupid laws and bills that are enacted let alone object to the downright fraudulent bias it has against the average citizen in favor of giving more power to corporate interests, such as the injustice court scum system of lawyer judge parasites, the banks and the military complex etc. Nothing more than a mafia racket based on pseudo-intellectual garbage that is obfuscated in order to put people off from seeing just how corrupt and biased most laws are. zarlin (12:36 PM CET - Nov,04 2010 ) i say those who are idiotic are those who gives a shit about there safety , and says yes to all ...and that very much incl Faceshit , people gives a shit nowadays about safety , its all give it to me give it to me , i wanna be HIP , "all are doing it (Faceshit)so i might aswell do it to" . Hell all you facebook user may aswell disable your virus protection , your scam mail protection , Now if people really are so stupid to say YES you may sell my personal info/data to another compagny aslong as i get a account be my guest but KEEP THAT SHIT OUT OF GAMES http://www.betanews.com/article/Facebook-User-IDs-were-sold-to-data-brokers-company-admits/1288637944

It was in the post. They are shooting for certification in December, with the certification adding an additional up to four weeks. So it could be in December at the earliest and January at the latest.

Just because it's free doesn't prevent Microsoft from crying about the game being confusing to the public. Oh how will gamers tell the difference between an official product and an unofficial one. Oh if only there were some sort of message, perhaps when the game loads or even on the website, that could inform these mythical clueless people.

There is a demo so give it a shot before completely dismissing it. I would be more general in that it feels more like a Lucasarts adventure than a Sierra one.

If there's ever a picture that needs far more details, this is one of them. Please provide them. And yes,  to the Kermit pic as well. Unfortunately the LJ page that I grabbed this from is in russian. I tried a babel fish translation, which sort of made it better but not by much. Tried searching for the name it provided but didn't receive any results that stood out.

Every once in a while Microsoft comes out with a press statement or small event saying, hey we totally love the PC and will absolutely make games for it. Then nothing. I wish they would just admit that they don't have a clue about the PC market and call it a day. Bring back the Flight Simulator team, give the Age of rights back to whatever studio some of the guys from Ensemble hopefully started after you canned them, and maybe we will talk. Until then stick with your precious Halo and... hmm do you have any properties left or just third party (paid) exclusives at this point.

Right now, I'm underwhelmed. Nothing really grabbed me and said spend $450. As much as I hate Sony for dropping backward com compatibility I'm still leaning towards them as my first step in this generation of gaming. Not that a bunch of press demos has ever swayed me to buy a console yet. But I just want something more than a bunch of shooters and that's the angle Microsoft has been leveraging. Though I will give them kudos for not hamfisting the Kinect device onto Halo Reach, or forcing Epic or Infin er Treyarch to do it with theirs.

someone posting on Kotaku(not sure where he got this from,i think he is making it up)said that with this 360 you wont need your own power source for the Kinect,but with the old 360s you do
I would really doubt this. It's usb connection, why should it care what it's connected to. Not all USB ports output enough power. My old Powerbook needed a special two-port forked usb cable to run my old portable hard drive. you two have lost me now...not sure where USB has come from,i was talking about electric, not how the kinect kinected(<<see what i did there )to the 360...but about how the Kinect has to be plugged into the wall if you have an old 360 As soon as you put an update to your first post I deleted mine, though apparently not quick enough. th'Fool is right, there are some devices that need more power than what a single USB can give. It does seem odd to me that the older version would need a power plug, but that the newer one does not. So would that mean that they were able to reduce power consumption with better parts, but then transferred that savings to a new device? Which then wouldn't that mean that the new 360 is just as likely to red ring as the older one. Granted it got better with Jasper, but still doesn't that fail as well.

Giving the audience free 360s actually kind of burns me up since most of them (from what I gather at least) are journalists. Seems like a huge conflict of interest to me. This isn't Oprah.
Yeah. The more I think about it the more it pisses me off. Yes, I'm jealous. But beyond that E3 is an event for companies to show off their wares to journalists. Part of me is happy the spectacle is back, but the other wonders why since the people that are there are working. It seems like hand job journalism to me. That's why I like the idea of PAX. You are advertising to your core evangelists, not someone who will write a piece and then move on. Bottom line, I wouldn't be mad if it was a bunch of gamers who got a free console. Still be jealous though. Yes I know most journalists are gamers as well, but they were also paid to be there. I can assure you that everyone from GT that is there went on their own dime. Doubt you could say the same for Gamespot or G4. And I want to be clear. I'm not mad at the people covering the event. I'm irritated because most, maybe just some I don't really know, of those who attended got a second 360 (Simple lust on my part which I acknowledge). It's irritating to me because the general public, in my narrow view of the moment, never get these kind of opportunities. I just don't get who Microsoft is trying to please here.
