The Last Possible Player Review: Reviewing Old Games that you couldn’t afford New
For about six months now I have been playing Red Dead Redemption on and off, patiently waiting for the Undead Nightmare DLC to come down in price. Stupidly when I purchased Red Dead, I didn’t realize that you didn’t need to get Red Dead Redemption to purchase and Play Undead Nightmare. Anyhoo last night I finally took the plunge and downloaded some Old West Zombie Awesomeness.
Undead Nightmare is FANTASTIC. Redemption is a great game on its own; however this DLC crowns it as Rockstar’s best in my eyes. I have never been able to get into the Grand Theft Auto series as it just seemed too real to everyday life. Don’t get me wrong I’m not running down hookers and shooting pimps, but if I wanted to I probably could. It just wasn’t enough of an escape and it bored me.
Red Dead is different though. Take the mechanics and tremendous graphics of GTA4 add new bullet time features and the old west and now were talking. You gallop across the west and even into Mexico to hunt down outlaws with your own brand of justice. That’s a little background on the core game however Undead Nightmare takes all that and crosses it with Dead Rising. (more…)
My name is Magenta Costley. I am a 23 year old pinup model from LaGrange, GA. Being a true Georgia girl, I enjoy spending time in my vegetable garden or tending to my flock of chickens.
I have been modeling for the last two and a half years, but things have really taken off for me in the last year. So far 2011 has brought me 12 separate magazine publications, including the cover of 2. I am very blessed with all of the success I have received and owe everything to God.
I’m a huge book nerd, reading is my passion. I love musicals. Labyrinth is my favorite movie in the whole world. I have a heart for animals and support the ASPCA because I strongly believe in their cause. Vincent Price is my hero. I believe in fairies. I think my husband is the greatest man alive and my brother is a close second. (more…)
PayPal founder Peter Thiel recently invested $1.25 million to try to make Rapture a city of reality. By offering support to the Seasteading Institute, he has jump-started efforts to create city-state communities afloat on ocean platforms. In 2009, the institute held a 3D design competition to help people visualize what these sea-bound communities may look like .
The structures will be 12,000 tons, diesel-powered and carry around 270 people per unit, as reported by Details Magazine. The idea is to link the structures together to create ocean metropolises equipped to accommodate millions of people.
Thiel hopes to place the structures beyond the coastal jurisdiction of existing countries and their laws. Call it a libertarian pipe dream if you will, but he hopes to experiment with different types of government styles. In some cases, he wishes to start up city-states without minimum wages and welfare, with fewer weapons restrictions and “looser” building codes, he says. Seasteading already has a teamworking on the legal issues involved. (more…)
