here are various banners we have used over the years.


Here is The Hanged Man's great kill count! :D

Dear Esther (2008)

Dear Esther

"I have run out of places to climb, I will abandon this body and take to the air, We will leave twin vapour trails in the air, white lines etched into these rocks, I am the aerial, In my passing, I will send news to each and every star."



Its odd going into the library of mods online, you see the difference between mods and games is that a modder can make brilliance with limited resources or utter shit either way it's free so you tend not to care. A game, however, costs money and THAT is when you do care, whether you will enjoy it or not.


Dear Esther is a unique mod for the source engine which takes control of a nameless protagonist referred to as "The Narrorator." The experience takes place on an island off the coast of Britain and focuses on the journey of the Narrorator as he explores this island and shares his thoughts with the player.


I don't think I can tell you any more than that, the premise itself is sort of lost in the experience and YOU have to play it to find it. That doesn't mean all the answers are going to be thrown at you, however, as there a forums full of people who are currently discussing the experience and what it all means right now.


Dear Esther is more like an interactive story; although you don't really interact with anything you walk through this island and explore it deeper and deeper. For me this was like a voice, but not one I could place repeatedly calling my inner desires telling me to explore deeper. The first time you go through this you will not have a clue what is ahead and what secrets are kept in the island.


What I find most intriguing about Dear Esther is the way that the experience works, it's different in the mod to the game and the mod manages to make you feel lonely and isolated. The game fills the island with more detailed scenery which I'm pretty sure doesn't have the same effect. I say this because I have only played the mod, but from what I've watched online of the game itself the mod and game are suprisinngly similar.


By now you have probably noticed that I have referred to it as an "experience" rather than a "game". That's because Dear Esther shows a unique new initiative in which you aren't required to do anything, but walk forward. This makes the whole thing somewhat short, now before you say "if there is no challenge it cannot be a game" first of all you obviously haven't played any of the Call of Duty games and second Dear Esther doesn't really claim to be a "game" or at least not challenging or any other criticisms people throw at it.


Now before you say "You like it (although I haven't established that yet) and you are denying any criticism towards the game!" This is simply not true, the point I wish to get across is that yes Dear Esther isn't what you would call a game in a regular sense it's more like the crossover between a film and a book. It allows you to go at your own pace like a book and look over the careful scenery, but also you cannot control what happens like a film. This is what makes it somewhat interesting, the idea that you aren't able to defy the game (without it being a rail shooter of course). This isn't what every gamer wants either because they are a well read intellect who reads stories which are better than this every night, or they are impatient call of dutards that have to see something explode every 2 minutes in order to call it a "game" *cough* BLACK OPS *cough* either way both of these people are going to have their own definition of what a "game" is and no one's definition is going to be the same.


This is why this is difficult to recommend.


I personally bloody loved this experience, but I don't think everyone in the world will. I can imagine people saying it's too complicated (which has been said on forums) or it's boring or it's not really a game. But I unlike some am NOT one of those fools who thinks that playing a game which utters a word with more than 3 syllables in it makes me an intellect because that is preposterous. However, I will say that you must have some understanding of the English language to play this. Once again I'm not on the "I'm a brilliant intellectual who wears big glasses (which are just a pair of empty frames) and charge people a fortune to live in my shitty council estate!" group, but I agree that it is going to be difficult to understand for people who don't follow metaphors.


Now before people say "you're directing that to everyone who didn't like it." Like some people have said that's not true either. You see I have my own criticisms about this too and you can really only go in blind into something like this. If you try it and don't like it you shouldn't be shot down for it, I know how some people must feel after spending £10 (or nothing if they got the source mod) for something they do not like.


I got Viewtiful Joe back when it was only 6 months old for £10 and after completing the first level I had a sudden realisation that scared me. I realised that during the time that I spent playing this, I could have invested in a hobby like painting, swimming or self harming and quit the game and threw the console with the game inside it out of the window. Now personally I can't fault anyone for liking that game, but I hated it and feel even now like I wasted £10 which I want back. So I can sympathise with people who have bought this game for £10 and found it to be not their ideal game.


Now before anyone says "hold on, isn't this reviewing the 2008 mod?" "Why didn't you pay for the full game?" "Why did you tell me there were naked women on this page?" I lack the funds to get a credit card and therefore can only review what I got, but from what I've seen of the mod and the game there is little difference, other than the obvious differences like graphics.


As I said before I got off track there, I do have some criticisms about this game, for a start there is the fact that it isn't really a game as I have already established. Also I have found myself getting stuck in the map at times and having to use Noclip to get myself out. Another problem I've had with it is the voice over talking over itself if I walk too far ahead. This cannot always be helped, but it can kill the atmosphere that the game works so hard to create and it's replayable, but you can only really experience it once even if the haunting feeling lasts for days.


So would I recommend this? Yes, but to who? That's a tough question, but I think I can help you out...


Look to your left (or right if you are a smart arse) and look at your games collection, what do you see? If you see CoD, battlefield 3, Turok, Haze and any other high paced action game and you thoroughly enjoy these kinds of games and hammer the buttons on the controller to skip the cut scenes, and then you probably will not like this as a game. If you have a copy of ICO on a pedestal with candles around it covered in incense then you are likely to bloody love it.


If you are truly unsure and own Half Life 2 for PC get the mod before buying the game (like what I did) and see if you like it. If you really loved it then the game version is obviously right up your street and if not... wait why am I telling what to do if you don't like it? I'm not a bloody life coach!

Review: Sniper Elite V2 (Demo) by The Hanged Man



Well anyone one  on Steam who actually made the mistake of adding people to their friends list, has most likely had a bombardment of suggestions, for them to get this game's demo.

Sniper elite does exactly what it says on the tin in the fact that
A. You are a sniper and...
B. You are (supposedly) Elite

You are so elite infact that you have rushed ahead of the rest of the British army! Or at least that is the only logical conclusion I can think of to explain the lack of allied troopers in this game. It's as if they developers honestly believe that there was only 1 super soldier on the british side and it was Hitler who quickly wrote in his diary in his darkest hour, that it was an army, rather than admit that he was over thrown by 1 guy...

I then came to the conclusion that you play as Jimmy Mcperson the unknown war hero only described in history exams from students who don't read books.

Anyway back to the point...

The game focuses on you, a lone sniper who must take out the entire German army in world war 2 IE: 5 guys effectivley in a pretty world war 2 environment. This is my main problem with this game, it focuses too much on being pretty when it is infact not much more than a sniper simulator. Remember in Metal Gear Solid (the original) where you had those VR training sessions? Where you played on tiles made out of ones and zeros and had to dispatch diamonds? Well that is honestly how this game feels.

It tries to be somewhat realistic but with no (or very little) atmosphere it doesn't achieve this, which would be sad if it wasn't madening at how much it makes the fecking game lag! I amazingly cannot get this game to run smoothly on quality higher than medium. Now I'm running this on a PC which can pretty much run Fallout: New Vegas on full graphics (if that gives you an idea about it's specs.)

This doesn't feel much different than New Vegas and it still lags out on most PCs that weren't developed by Nasa. This wouldn't be a big deal, however, if the game wasn't what it was a small bargain bin Steam game, but it is and so it should be able to run on any PC owned by a ten year old who doesn't check the specs of a game before buying it.

So as for gameplay itself? It mainly consists of shooting enemies with a sniper (who would have guessed?) Although to achieve this you must master your heart (daww) beat (oh) or your crosshair will be flailing all over the place like George Michael's cock infront of a police officer.

The game rewards you for well placed shots, however, with a bullet time kill cam where it either just shows the bullet penetrate your victim or shows you damage done to internal organs. This makes being accurate slightly more enjoyable (If you are a sick far right wing gun nut who is stroking a shotgun while playing and humming his national anthem).

My main complaint about this is that it only works on headshots (few) and chest shots which makes it so you've seen everything by your third kill. I kind of like doing this when you can shoot an injured Nazi who is being slung over his mates shoulder and is being carried off, (it's ok they're Nazis so they aren't people like us).
Anywho I shot through the injured guys head and shot the other guy through the back! Although, this is great and all I cannot help, but feel that they could make normal kills more sexy? Imagine if everytime you shot an enemy in the knee, he fell to the floor screaming about how his career as a soldier was over and how he will now have to become a guard in Whiterun (ok that old joke isn't and never was funny). The point is this, this kill cam is somewhat exciting at first, but you can only guess that this is going to get old later on in the games life.

The main reason for this feature, however, is simply this: If they didn't do this then everyone would just use a Tommy Gun and storm the enemy (missing out on sniper points, but who even cares? We aren't on Atari) Not only is the Tommy gun more accurate but it's fully automatic.

My main problem with the sniper rifle is half the hits don't count. For basic "Oh look an enemy!" (Points gun) *bang* kind of shooting, it's not bad, nor is it bad aiming at an enemy who is just stood in no man's land picking his nose.

No I tend to struggle when I start actually thinking (thinking with portals if you like...) For example when I see a guard stood behind a car, but I can blatently see his feet sticking out from underneath it. I'm obviously going to aim at the feet, but, you see the problem here is the car is rendered to be a square block! Causing you to miss and I'm not even going to start on the ammount of times, where I shot an enemy 2 times in the chest and neither of the shots counted...

This game feels like 1 of both and it's hard for me to decide, is it...
A. A bargain bin game that tries too hard?
B. A blockbuster game that doesn't try enough?

And this is the conflict that I think of while playing this game, it's not bad for killing time, but it won't be memorable next week. It isn't a bad game per say as it starts off satisfying enough, but this is one where I would suggest getting it either just as a demo or maybe buying it if you spot it under £20 (or £10).

Review of The Darkness II by The Hanged Man


Disclaimer: What is said here is the opinion of one individual and isn't fact or the opinion of the whole group, this review was based on the playstation 3 version of The Darkness II so it's possible that some things in the graphics, gameplay, ETC may not apply to the Xbox 360 version or the PC.)

Sum up

The Darkness II is a mix of the comic book super hero and mafia crime genre, the game allows you to "take care of business" but with a demonic force to back you up!

Story

This game takes place 2 years after the events of the original game when our protagonist Jackie Estacardo is betrayed by his uncle Paulie who tries to kill him on his 21st birthday but something else happens that night...

For the first time ever Jackie notices something dark and powerful stir within him and soon enough it emerges as a two headed demon known only as "The Darkness." Jackie at first uses the Darkness' power to get revenge on his uncle up until he pays the price for using it's power when he loses the only light in his life his girlfriend Jenny.

From this moment on Jackie cares about nothing else but revenge and through this drive of vengeance he masters the darkness and avenges Jennie at the near cost of his soul.

Jackie since has been keeping the Darkness in check and for two years refuses to use it's power, up until he is attacked by an unusually organised cult. Jackie is once again forced to turn to the Darkness and use it's power to destroy his new found enemies... The Brotherhood.

Gameplay

The story in this game is never dull for a moment although you do have to get information and return home at the end of missions these tranquil moments quickly pass as most people will be eager to get back to the action the game doesn't force you to stay at home longer than necessary.

Although the story isn't as long as the original and in my view not as well written it is still satisfying and is still a great experience going deeper into the mind of Jackie and bringing back all your favourite characters and introducing new ones.

The game cuts back on side quests which filled the original and there are only a few acts, 3 I think which will reduce playing time massively compared to the original. The game was incredibly short in comparison and I did it on a Sunday afternoon in about 7 hours or so (with a lot of dicking around).

There are a few mini games involved nothing as exciting as that crazy old lady that threw coins on the track and told you to pick them up before you got hit by a train, but still a number of games that involve killing pigeons in creative and evasive manors.

The problem is these mini games don't feel like they are worth wasting your time on as you don't get much of an award for doing them (Other than approval from Shale), I'm sure you get an achievement or something for doing some of them or maybe if you do them all but I don't care about achievements.

There are many violent and horrific moments that made the original what it is, it also keeps up with the tradition of making the player an unstoppable nightmarish force of destruction and boy is it satisfying. You can use a number of unlock able Darkness powers and you even get your own minion (who I refer to as Wheatley after Portal 2 because he's English) as well as duel wielding of a wide range of fire arms. The only problem is that I am unstoppable I only died a few times and none of these deaths were from damage one was from fall damage and a few others were story events which I didn't react fast enough to, but other than that this game was so easy on normal I would imagine that easy is a walk in the park.

Graphics

This is one of the things the game is sadly lacking on, I appreciate that they have tried to make it into a comic book style of gameplay as seen in Borderlands. The problem is that it looks somewhat worse than the 2007 original game which was made 5 years before, although the world is well detailed and imaginative it still feels like a late Playstation 2 game or early Playstation 3 or Xbox 360 game.

It is a shame that this may put off the younger Call of duty loving generation from a good experience but for all of the readers out there with a brain I'm sure you don't need good graphics to make a good game.

Lifespan

This game will last you a couple of hours on the single player campaign as well as a number of hours on the coop campaign (which I haven't played yet). This game might be worth playing once or twice because of it's alternative choices, but I wouldn't say it was a brilliant replay value as these didn't feel as if they would alter the game that much or not at all.

Conclusion

In conclusion I would definitely say the Darkness is worth buying I wouldn't regard it as high as the original but it is by no means by any stretch of the imagination bad. This game is like the 300 of gaming sure it's unrealistic but it's gory, brutal, sexy and fun so it's definitely worth checking out even if you just rent it.

Reference page

Spotted something on the site and thought "hmm I've seen or heard of that before"?

Here is a list of references for you to hunt or check up on.

Cregulator humour page:

Left 4 Dead:

Survivors from hell:

The Speed runner story's intro is a reference to the Speed racer TV show.

"To heal or not to heal" is a reference to the famous quote from Hamlet.

Quotes of the inexperienced:

17. "Oh look it's Santa’s grotto" was a quote from the internet comic, video adaptation Edd Egg the quote was from the episode Missal toe and mine.

27. This was a reference to a ridiculous sever out there in which players can fly the noise it makes is similar to that of flatulence.

41. Is a reference to Einstein’s definition of insanity "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results."

57. Ndubz are a crap band if you haven't heard of them you are lucky.

59. The Crocodile and the child dilemma is a puzzle where a crocodile kidnaps a child and will only give the child back if the father predicts correctly what will become of the child correctly the Crocodile will return the child unharmed however if he gets it wrong the Crocodile will keep the child. There is a paradox, however, in this puzzle if the father predicts that the child won't be set free and he is correct then the crocodile cannot release the child because if he does the fathers prediction would be incorrect. (this also works the other way around)
For more information on this subject see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crocodile_Dilemma.

Fallout:
The quote "crap humour crap humour never changes" is a reference to the Fallout tagline "War... war never changes."
Idle thoughts while playing Fallout: 20. Is both in references the Marcus from Fallout new Vegas and The Unwashed Villagers (a Fallout community). Marcus when asked by the Courier about his past will mention a tribal (the Chosen one) and says that he is sure that everything is fine. In Fallout 2, The Chosen one could encounter the unwashed villagers hunting a spammer and aid them if he wished. This kind of mixed the 2 together.

I hate Mondays:

Bus stop zombies:

The quote "When the bus is full the dumb will walk the earth" is a reference to the dawn of the dead quote "When hell is full the dead will walk the earth."

The term 'Shufflers' was in reference to Fallout where 'Shufflers', 'Zombie' or 'Brain eater' are racist terms to call ghouls.

Doomsday theories:
The quote " Look I don't care if you have ignored everything I have said for the past year or so... hear me now... and believe. This Illuminati and their huge following are NOT real... WAKE UP children!" is a reference to Three Dog from Fallout 3 who makes an announcement similar to this about the Enclave.

Idle thoughts while playing Fallout

Note: These are references to ALL the games the old and new so older Fallout fans won't get the Fallout 3 references if you haven't played the game and same goes for Fallout 3 fans who haven't played Fallout 1 or 2.

1. Does Gizmo ever get out of that chair?
2. The lone wanderer: The Chosen one had his highway man... I think I could make a rad racer work.
3. I must have a real soft skull, I've shot plent of people in the head and they don't die immedietley
4. What did I do or say to Ian to make him keep shooting me like that?!
5. More metro tunnels... you would have thought after 200 years they would have shifted all this crap by now.
6. Ah lone surviving dog? I've heard this one before...
7. The Lone wanderer/Courier: why can't I get married?
8. How come my gun goes from being fine one minute to totally destroyed the next?
9. A city of ghouls? Tell me I don't have to kick the Super Mutants out the water shed this time!
10. I should get a check up at the clinic... all this sewer running is so un-couth.
11. I have an Intelligence of 10! Why didn't I get myself a real job?
12. The chosen one: When DID the pip boy 3000 come out? How come I didn't get one?
13. Harold we got to stop meeting like this... people will start to talk.
14. I disarmed the bomb that threatened this piece of shit town why won't you guys talk to me!
15. Hey... why didn't I take a list of Vault locations with me when I went out to look for a water chip?
16. On that topic why didn't those dumb sods make a backup copy of the chip!?
17. Oh god I took a wrong turn I'm in Necropolis... don't make eye contact.
18. How come a guard with a bigass gun can't kill a couple of rad scorpions but I can with my bare hands?!
19. How come there aren't big stocks piles of ammo around like in Left 4 Dead?
20. The Chosen one (in 2281): I wonder what happened to those Villagers I encountered? I bet everything turned out alright. ;)
21. Wait... I left a minigun with Marcus back in 2241! What ever happened to it?!
22. Damn this shop doesn't serv mutants sorry Fawkes...
23. No dogs allowed except guide dogs? BULLSHIT!
24. You know after I let this dog follow me around bad things have been happening...
25. What was in vault 108? Was it the one with 999 women and one man!? *opens door* No... it was the one with all the stupid clones in, some day...
26. I'm so glad there is no thing as insurance these days...or I would go poor from running over that ghoul.
27. Why couldn't the overseer give me a minigun? How am I supposed to find the water chip with this crappy pistol!
28. Oh no my clothes have just suddenly deteriorated!
29. Hey Darkwater didn't need my damn help!
30. I hate walking...
31. What's stopping me from fast traveling away from the Temple of the union?
32. OH NO! Nuka Lurks!
33. The Lone Wanderer: why does everything seem... so inconsistant?
34.

But somethings are just going too far... remember we are NOT 4chan...

Don't be a biggot
Don't be offensive towards things that people don't choose this can mean race, disability, gender or even age. Although some people like making fun of themselves which is acceptable but don't go too far! Don't make pages in-sighting racial hatred or anything like that!

Don't be an ass
This is a simple rule don't spam, don't create pages that are clutter or deface someone else's work and don't delete anything even if it is your own work without consulting people first! Remember to show respect to other members (even ones you don't like) any pages in sighting hatred to a fellow member will be taken down and it's creator banned.

Games and activities

Here you can play our games we have made and enjoy a number of a activities made by the members

The Corrupt Regulator RPG game

The Corrupt Regulators Role Playing Game

The Corrupt Role Playing Game is a game you can play by yourself, with friends or even online (using chats such as Steam chat/MSN) and it is completely free!

To play you will need: 
The quest sheet

AND THAT'S IT!!!

OK here is how it works, you take the role of a Corrupt Regulator recruit who is on patrol during your patrol you will notice a number of things (quests) which you will have to solve (8 in total).

These will be felonies you see which you will have to solve, to solve them you will have to use your wit to be the biggest bastard you can (yes you read that right). The bigger the bastard you are the more Cregulator points you will get, the player with the most Cregulator points wins! (Or if you are playing on your own you will be able to brag about it to your friend).

Your first step is to create a character, for this we will be using the S.P.E.C.I.A.L system from the Fallout games (there are other games like this that use them...) You will choose 2 S.P.E.C.I.A.L stats to play with (kind of like your tagged skills)

S.P.E.C.I.A.L stands for




Strength - Makes violent options much more effective, this can give you more time to rob people getting you more loot thus giving you more points than usual when stealing or using violent means!


Perception - This is a funny word it means what you can hear, taste or smell perception is surprisingly useful when stealing from your victims as you will always know where the money is you can hear it, smell it or even taste it (yuck) and point to the right pocket every time giving you an extra Cregulator points when stealing!


Endurance - This shows how much of a beating you can take and how tired out you get, if you get tired then angry townsfolk will be able to catch up to you. You will earn extra points when doing anything that involves strength or agility!

Charisma - With this you can do a number of things win fair ladies (or sir gentleman's) heart, get out of fights with bluffing or even con people into giving you there stuff you earn extra points for tricking people.

Intelligence - Being more brainier than your average piers you can take advantage of people, tricking them into doing things buying you time and earning you more points!

Agility- This makes you a speedy little git good for fistycuffs and running away! Agility gets you extra points for any solutions that envolve running away or being quick on your feet... or your head.


Luck - luck doesn't really affect anything but gives you +1 extra Cregulator point each time.


OK picked 2? GOOD now you will need to name your character (yes you have to be human since everyone trusts super mutants making it unfair)

Now you can play it 2 ways

1 the dungeon master: If you have a dungeon master this person will have to sit out and make up the story as he goes, he will also award points based on which player was the biggest bastard and will also remember the S.P.E.C.I.A.L sheet.
2 The Codex: If you are alone or with so few players that a dungeon master won't work then this is the better option it is all in the tables placed around the quests.

Now lets make sure we understand the rules
Practice quest: You are walking down the road when 2 men are fighting over a loaf of bread, you approach them and ask 'who's bread is that?' both reply at the same time 'It's mine!' it is now up to you to diffuse the situation.

*Now this is where you would decide what you would do for example a good regulator would break the bread in two and share it... but you aren't a good regulator you are a Corrupt Regulator and it's time you start acting like one!

Now you could give the bread to one person and solve the argument... but you could give it to the thief at least you are pleasing someone... right?
OR you could be a complete bastard and hog the bread to yourself earning you more Cregulator points + any S.P.E.C.I.A.L stats which apply! You could even go the extra mile by punching both men in the face for 'bothering you over such a trivial matter' and take the bread yourself... you know after stealing a few things off there person before you walk off into the sunset.

Each player will describe what they do and then either ask the dungeon master or consult the codex

This is where the dungeon master comes into play you can choose what happens next, if you choose for that player who is stealing to be caught by a slightly dazed townsfolk you can allow that player to earn more points or cause him his doom!

If you don't have a dungeon master consult the codex:
 Result (This is the number of things that can happen if these conditions are met you will earn more Cregulator points)
Cregulator points (This is how many Cregulator points are rewarded for said action)
Extra information (This will tell you if you have any S.P.E.C.I.A.L points added)
