Dawn of War 2

Rapidfire068

I'm BACK...sorry for the long absence everyone...

Anyways, I have never been a huge Warhammer fan unlike the other members of the WAFN crew but I must say this...This game looks AWESOME. For those of you who don't know, Dawn of War is the PC RTS version of the popular strategy game by Games Workshop called Warhammer 40 000 which centers around outrageously violent battles between various warring races within the 40K universe. The original Dawn of War and its expansions have been retardedly successful and this sequel looks like it may make 40K lovers cream their para-slacks. The visuals in this game will be stunning to say the least and the online play is rumoured to be taking a new direction then what Dawn of War enthusiasts are used to. That's right people, word is that you will be able to play online campaign co-op instead of just regular comp stomp. "RTS co-op....fucking sweet". Not only this but the campaign in general will be much different than your average RTS. Relic, the developers of the game, say that the campaign for Dawn of War 2 will have features that link it more closely to an RPG than an RTS "ala Mass effect". For example, for the space marines you will be in control of the same squad of units for the duration of the game which you can upgrade and add to when needed as well as adding individualized leaders. You will take this squad throughout the 40K universe in a space ship going back and forth from different planets running into optional story sequences "just like the distress signals in Mass Effect, lolz".

This game is not quite near finished but I have to say I am excited to find out more, and hopefully you are too Lolz. Thats all I have for you today faithful readers, feel free to check out the sweet snippet of gameplay I aquired from IGN. Cheers

What Happened In Piedmont? I'll Tell You What.

imthinking

Theories, theories, theories.

A lot of people are quick to dismiss or fallback in a comfort zone into the belief that the Piedmont story is a hoax, a fake, a viral story like the John Titor bonanza which involved a supposed time traveler. Ockham's razor is that the simplest answer is most likely the correct one. I've read the blogs, watched the videos and I think a conclusion can be drawn upon what is potentially going on in Piedmont Utah, Zombies. Now my friends would say that zombies are my answer to everything: Piedmont, cannibalism, exams, lawyers, but hear me out on this one.

 

First indication of a Zombie outbreak in Piedmont was the comment about a chemical spill. Hello? Hasn't anyone else watched Return of the living dead? That zombie was directly linked to exposure to a zombie causing chemical. Second indication, a "falling star". Yeah hi I've seen Shaun of the Dead; I know that zombie outbreak was spread up a crashed communication satellite. What that indicates is that there are zombie space bacteria.

There also is government involvement! Come on folks, we know that the military always intervenes to blockade and quarantine zombie plagued areas to prevent a global outbreak. Let’s also not forget where said zombie chemicals originated from, last thing you want is a zombie outbreak and finding barrels of chemicals that says "Property of U.S.A." on it. Dead bodies littering the ground, a media black out coming in or out from the town are all textbook examples of a zombie outbreak containment.

I'll post more on theories and interesting developments as they continue.

 

Cheers,
Jerry-Orest

Gear of War 2 Update

Rapidfire068

I know I know, by now everyone knows that Gears 2 is on its way, but I couldn't live with myself if I didn't mention it on my own site. So, I'm making this my first in a series of Gears updates as more news develops, I'll make sure to fill our faithful viewers in.

Anyways, let’s get down to business. As we all should know, Gears of War, an Xbox 360 and PC exclusive, is the epic gore fest following Marcus Fenix and Delta squad's fight against the unstoppable Locust Horde. This November we will be getting right back into the fight with what Epic Games is saying will be "even bigger, better, and more badass experience than the first game". That means better graphics, more blood, more explosions, a more expansive storyline and best of all...more chainsaws. Sadly not much has been released yet in terms of the story for Gears 2, but it is supposed to begin shortly after where the first game left off. Humanity has achieved an apparent victory be destroying the Locust's Hive far beneath the city, but the Locust are not finished yet...they are just pissed off.

That's all I can say at this point, but I will fill our readers in as more info becomes available. In fact, if you have any info that we might not know about, feel free to share with us. To cap things off, here are some screenshots I was able to find showing off some Gears 2 locations and what is either a drunken Hobbo armed to the teeth lolz or who I think is Marcus Fenix's badass father who was mentioned in the first game, but never made an appearance. Oh and here's a little video showcasing some of the new features on Gears 2.

RROD, meet Code 80010514

Rapidfire068

"Holy lack of posts Batman!", sorry for the recent delays everyone, but we are all busy with the horror known as exams...u kno, and if you don't, thank jesus that ur so lucky. ANYWAYS...

 

 

You may all be aware of the dreaded RROD (red ring of death) that has plagued a lot of Xbox 360 owners and pwners alike...I now consider it a right of passage if someone truly wants to pwn lolz. I am certain that a lot of annoying ass PS3 fanboys have heard of it because that's all I ever hear is "360 sucks, RROD, blah blah blah, I live with my parents and fead off breast milk, etc" you kno, the usual. BUT, it seems that Sony has a few skeletons in their closet that they have been trying to keep on the hush hush. Code 80010514 is its name...doesn't exactly role off the tongue like RROD lol, but my point remains. Code 80010514 is something that should strike fear into the hearts of all PS3 owners because it pretty much means game over for them....I don't think Sony has a 3 year extended warranty... This system error seems to signify that the Blu-ray drive has gone "tits up" as stormtruperTK41's professor would put it, and will no longer function. This is not a new phenomenon either, this problem has been there, right since day one but has been downplayed by Sony. Say what you will about Microsoft, but at least they made good on their mistake. My only hope is that this will help bring harmony back to the console wars so that I can stop hearing all this bitching about the RROD from the fanboys out there...We all have our problems now...Deal with it, lolz

Well, thats it for me today...Later everyone

It finally happened...Innocence is dead

Rapidfire068

That's right ladies and gentlemen its over...no more fluffiness and gum drops, now we have skin tight leather and oozing blood. You all should remember Teletoon, a television network devoted to showing nothing but cartoons. Well I remember in the begining the most horrific thing shown on Teletoon was maggie and the ferocious beast. BUT, what should happen while I was channel surfing yesterday? Well, I came across this little gem playing on Teletoon called "Heavy Metal 2000 aka Heavy Metal FAKK 2", a gorey sexually charged sci-fi that seems to have no plot to it at all, but does feature Billy Idol's voice acting...LoLz. So what did I do?.....I watched, lol. Scene after scene of hot naked anime chicks, spaceship battles, gallons of blood and guts, mild rape, a 3 foot high rock gollum that doesn't say or do much (lolz) and to top it all off...a lizard man gladiator duel over a pit of lava. TAKE THAT COEN BROTHERS! So as I was sitting there trying to figure out what was going on  I thought to myself "everything  is proceeding as I have forseen" (Star wars quote). The transition is complete and society has finally moved to a glorious new level of depravety, and I for one LoL'd.

Unlike LogicalNot, I was able to snag some screenshots so you all can see whats roudning its way through my twisted mind, LoL. Enjoy! and until next time everyone, Cheers...

 


Strange, I couldn't find only action shots...just boob shots. But, I guess thats what the internet is for, right?

Almost News...

LogicalNot

Hey d00dz,

So I'm hoping WAFN will be able to bring you guys so interesting news in the future so I'm going to make an effort to give you guys a weekly news update of things that have caught my interest in the news I read in the preceding week. So lets do this. Week 1:

  1. Open source is pwing it up in the computer software market forcing Microsoft to make some game play adjustments by making more of a push for open-source interoperability among its own products now.
  2. Intel's new Mobile Internet Devices are shunning Microsoft and looking to move to the Linux platform! Woo go Linux!
  3. Microsoft announces that Windows 7 may be coming within the next year!
  4. Star Wars: Force Unleashed got a release date. The newest addition to the Star Wars game collection will be unleashed on North America September 16th!!!
  5. Assasins Creed is going to be on PC so all you stubborn-ass PC gamers that wont just buy a 360, you get lucky once again as yet another XBOX awesome moves to PC...again!
  6. Bungies weekly update tell us that a new Halo 3 update coming up will allow players to give their maps different lighting schemes along with a bunch of other cool props that can be placed on the map. Hopefully something awesome that matches the awesomeness of when we first got to drop man-cannons on the map!
  7. Charles Manson has offered his digital album under Creative Commons! Too bad some of the Beatles are dead or someone might actually care...
  8. You'll all be happy to know the guy that let Jeff Gerstmann go from Gamespot got... fired! Yayyyy! Now hopefully we can get Jeff back and Gamespot can be on my awesome list again.
  9. In other news, a recent study shows that gamers show traits of autism... jump on it Jack. I fucking dare you.
  10. Lost fans: See here. You might like... 
  11. XBOX live got pwned by COD4 fans today. The release of the new maps had such a massive audience that the XBOX Live servers got bogged down and weren't functioning properly. As much as I love Halo I think we know which game rules XBOX Live now. 
  12. Casual gamers are a big market. Nintendo has found a good niche as an analyst thinks the Wii will outsell the XBOX 360 and PS3 in the upcomming year. Kudos to you Nintendo.
  13. Not sure if you guys noticed in the Twitter, but Season 3 of the new TV hit series 'Dexter' has been made official!!!
  14. Suggested Reading: Just found this article discussing constructive commenting at Geek News Central. Make sure you follow the link is their post to the actual guidelines for commenting by Paul Graham.

There you go short and sweet. I hope there was stuff in there that you don't already know. I read alot of news throughout the week among the various news sites, blogs, and such that I subscribe to using my Google reader. I find alot of interesting stuff and I guess its about time I start sharing it with you guys eh. Oh yeah the whole adsense thing got turned down btw. Google feels that our website is a threat to their advertisers. Which is balls. But hey they gotta do what they gotta do. Thats business -- its cut throat. Right Rapidfire?

Anyways I'm calling it quits for the night. Sorry if this post seems rushed. I'll do my best to provide you guys with something more... robust/interesting when I write the next one. 

 

Take care guys!
