not yet sure about the story or the role of the players. I will let you all know once I have thought of something. there will for sure be religion, Gods and more

In other news. Any of you guys heard this bosses voice?

I think it's creepy ;p

YouTube video

On the topic if voices, would any of you know who Don LaFontaine is if I asked you?

Um, he sounds familiar.

know of him but would not do well on a quiz about him. he voices movie trailers, Simpsons and South Park among other.

Gordon Freeman has decisively kicked Link's scrawny ass and is now pwning Mario. I hope he wins the final!

Only because of /b/ and /v/. They mass voted and used proxies, they're intentionally voting down all the popular characters.

Link > Gordon anyday.

I am not so sure Link is more popular than Gordon. also not so sure that Link would win, Gordon with his tech and all

Well the only reason Gordon was able to keep up until the 7th was precisely because of what Shin mentioned, however once Valve advertised the contest in their news thing. It was done. So many PCfags just flooded the site who would never get on there otherwise. Good move on Valve's part, epic fail for Nintendo who didn't even recognize the contest on their websites at all. Nintendo is a japanese company though and just can't keep up with things going on here in the North America area. GG Valve.

Also Link > Gordon, not sure about a battle but Link is certainly the greater hero.

like Link more but I think Gordon is more popular

since I have noticed there is a lot of Warcraft interest here, I thought I would share this with those that did not know already

Blizzard laugh away Uwe Boll
April 21st, 2008

It appears that Uwe Boll applied to Blizzard for the role of director in the World of Warcraft movie. Shock horror I hear you all cry, especially when such an astoundingly bad director has these views about making a faithful adaptation:

“You go for it, to please the game fans, but on the other hand if you have the hard core gamers, they live in their own world. And you cannot fulfill their ideas from a video game based movie, it’s impossible. And to be honest, the real gamers are the typical download guys, right? They don’t pay anything for movies, because they illegally download the movies. So why I should please these guys? I need the normal audience.”

In the MTV article, Boll goes on to say that he spoke with Blizzard about helming the WoW movie:

“I got in contact with Paul Sams of Blizzard, and he said, ‘We will not sell the movie rights, not to you…especially not to you. Because it’s such a big online game success, maybe a bad movie would destroy that ongoing income, what the company has with it.”

this is even making me smile more than when Blizzard countered Microsoft's offer to buy Blizzard with an offer of their own to buy Microsoft

Hahaha nice.

Sadly Blizzard are owned by Activision now along with EA being the evilist publishers on the market.

they merged though and was not bought into Activision but rather combined

God, I love /b/ and /v/. Good job, guys. I love those little apps they make for voting 😉
