The House of the Dead: OVERKILL™ charges you with mowing down waves of infected, blood-thirsty zombies in a last-ditch effort to survive and uncover the horrific truth behind the origins of the House of the Dead. Survival horror as its never been seen before. The House of the Dead: OVERKILL is a pulp-style take on the classic SEGA® light-gun shooter series. Back when the famous Agent G was fresh out of the academy, he teamed up with hard-boiled bad-ass Agent Washington to investigate stories of mysterious disappearances in small-town Louisiana. Little did they know what blood-soaked mutant horror awaited them in the streets and swamps of Bayou City. Features: • Pulp funk horror Zombie cool at its finest as one of the most popular shooter classics returns injected with a whole new retro b-movie look • An utterly in-your-face zombie-dismembering blast Non-stop light-gun shooting action on the Wii as you blow apart zombies for high-score thrills • Superb co-op action on Wii Grab a friend and play the game as intended in your own buddy action movie as two of the coolest characters in video gaming • Relentless, gore-drenched, over-the-top action Only the coolest, most cold-hearted agent’s going to keep his head against the zombie flood. Use “Slow- Mofo Time” to make the perfect head-popping shot and “Evil Eye” to spot moments of opportunity that’ll send the whole environment up in flames • Lighting quick Wii Remote reactions Get knee-deep in the dead with motion-sensitive Wii controls. Pump your shotgun, slam a fresh mag home in that 9-mil and work your lever-action rifle. When the zombies get too close, pistol whip their jaws off or cave in some heads with the butt of your gun – all in sickening close-up range!.

    “For when established identities become outworn or unfinished ones threaten to remain incomplete, special crises compel men to wage holy wars, by the cruellest means, against those who seem to question or threaten their unsafe ideological bases.” Erik Erikson (1956), “The Problem of Ego Identity”, p. 114 “In games it’s very difficult to portray complex human relationships. Likewise, in movies you often flit between action in various scenes. That’s very difficult to do in games, as you generally play a single character: if you switch, it breaks immersion. The fact that most games are first-person shooters today makes that clear. Stories in which the player doesn’t inhabit the main character are difficult for games to handle.” Hideo Kojima Simon Parkin (2014), “Hideo Kojima: ‘Metal Gear questions US dominance of the world”, The Guardian iii AGRADECIMENTOS Por começar quero desde já agradecer o constante e imprescindível apoio, compreensão, atenção e orientação dos Professores Jean Rabot e Clara Simães, sem os quais este trabalho não teria a fruição completa e correta.

  • TOEJAMANDEARL - Round 5
    TOEJAMANDEARL - Round 5 1. Description acceptable. Creator Fumito Ueda has noted that, despite in-game messages to the contrary, this character is female. This character has a diamond-shaped feature between her eyes that changes to an “I” if a certain save file is present. Missiles from Basaran can be dodged with the help of this character, who also helps the player keep pace with Phalanx. Completing a time attack mode on both normal and hard will make this character appear white. This character surprisingly survives a fall from a chasm on the way to the 16th and final boss fight in a 2005 PS2 game. Agro is the real name of, for 10 points, what companion of the giant-slaying Wander in Shadow of the Colossus? ANSWER: the horse in Shadow of the Colossus (accept Agro before mention; accept just the horse after the end) 2. Collecting an exorbitant amount of items in this game’s levels earns the player the “Rule Breaker” status. A villain in this game known as “The Tri” is fought on Foundation Prime and is a grotesque amalgam of the protagonists’ sidekicks. One character in this game, the Gamer Kid, can unlock over 20 Midway arcade games and drives the car from Spyhunter. Lord Vortech kidnaps characters from numerous worlds in this game, whose default protagonists include Wildstyle, Gandalf, and Batman. A portal is physically assembled at the start of, for 10 points, what toy-and-game hybrid from a Danish block-making company? ANSWER: Lego Dimensions 3. The first game in this series was also the first in the loosely related Moero!! series in Japan.

  • You've Seen the Movie, Now Play The
    “YOU’VE SEEN THE MOVIE, NOW PLAY THE VIDEO GAME”: RECODING THE CINEMATIC IN DIGITAL MEDIA AND VIRTUAL CULTURE Stefan Hall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2011 Committee: Ronald Shields, Advisor Margaret M. Yacobucci Graduate Faculty Representative Donald Callen Lisa Alexander © 2011 Stefan Hall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Ronald Shields, Advisor Although seen as an emergent area of study, the history of video games shows that the medium has had a longevity that speaks to its status as a major cultural force, not only within American society but also globally. Much of video game production has been influenced by cinema, and perhaps nowhere is this seen more directly than in the topic of games based on movies. Functioning as franchise expansion, spaces for play, and story development, film-to-game translations have been a significant component of video game titles since the early days of the medium. As the technological possibilities of hardware development continued in both the film and video game industries, issues of media convergence and divergence between film and video games have grown in importance. This dissertation looks at the ways that this connection was established and has changed by looking at the relationship between film and video games in terms of economics, aesthetics, and narrative. Beginning in the 1970s, or roughly at the time of the second generation of home gaming consoles, and continuing to the release of the most recent consoles in 2005, it traces major areas of intersection between films and video games by identifying key titles and companies to consider both how and why the prevalence of video games has happened and continues to grow in power.
