A New Video From an Old Friend (The MMO Strut)

Auntisocial is near legendary in her videos of Star Wars Galaxies. I've long admired and enjoyed her work. I used to enjoy her posts on the various gamer forums I frequent. She just popped up again in a thread over at MMOfringe.com.

In that thread she mentioned her newish video, so I decided to share it with you folks. HHere she experiments with rotoscope using the unbiquitous subject: the babes of WoW and SWG -- especially their dance moves and their strut. Enjoy!

The Second Presidential Debate

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Worst debate EVER. Brokaw could not have sucked more as moderator; not only did he select the worst questions which half of them were the same questions, he asked the worst follow up questions.

McCain definitely won on points, style and substance, but not enough to make a difference. Also, he probably lost any chance of ever getting my vote this year, what with his massive 300 Billion Dollar communist housing plan. Frak that, John McCain.

Now you have one, and only one chance, of getting my vote. If Bush comes out with bin Laden's head on a pike, claiming "it was all John Mcain's plan...thank HIM." You got that you communist creep? Otherwise, say hello to the guy who pals around with terrorists in the White House. Jerk.

Looks like I am gonna go for Mr. Libertarian come-lately Bob Barr. At least I know he's gonna lose, and some Republican with a brain is gonna say, maybe going commie loses us votes? maybe we should go for that limited government thing again?

Frakking ultra-maroon. Almost had me.

LucasArts, BioWare Prepare To Announce Joint Project

LucasArts, BioWare Prepare To Announce Joint Project LucasArts' and BioWare's long-awaited, much-discussed joint development project -- widely speculated to be an MMO set in the Star Wars universe circa BioWare's own Knights of the Old Republic -- will be revealed to the press October 21, according to an invitation sent out to media outlets including Gamasutra.

It is likely that the official announcement will come shortly after the October 21 press reveal held at LucasArts' San Francisco offices; events of this nature are frequently subject to a media embargo.

The postcard, which proclaims "The wait is over" and promises "the official unveiling of the game that's been rumored about for years," makes no explicit reference to Star Wars. It is branded with the LucasArts and BioWare logos and depicts floating robots and hooded figures in futuristic interior locations reminiscent of the sci-fi franchise.

The alleged existence of a KOTOR-themed MMO is considered one of the industry's worst-kept secrets, with BioWare parent Electronic Arts' CEO John Riccitiello essentially confirming the title's existence.

Riccitiello called the BioWare/LucasArts effort "quite possibly the most anticipated game, full stop, for the industry," before acknowledging it as a KOTOR MMO.

Development of the joint project is being handled at BioWare's Austin studio, created specifically for MMO development.


Okay, there you have it. The wait is almost over. To quote Chris Matthews, "I got this thrill running up and down my leg..."
