Games / Zombie Army 4 to be Epic Store exclusive...
12 July, 2019, 02:55:02 PM
News from Develop: Brighton - https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2019-07-12-jason-kingsley-epic-is-paying-through-the-nose-to-build-its-store


QuoteJust a month after Jason Kingsley told MCV he would need a "bloody good reason" to do an Epic Store exclusive, Rebellion Developments signed just such a deal for Zombie Army 4.

On stage at Develop:Brighton this week with journalist Seth Barton, studio founders Jason and Chris Kingsley spoke more about what provoked the change in tact, conceding it was "bit of an embarrassing interview to give" as a result.

"Generally I think I would prefer not to do exclusives but I understand Epic's position with it, and quite frankly they are paying through the nose to build their store," said Jason. "All credit to them, it's fantastic, and we'll take some of their money, thank you very much."

...

It was all part of the "attractive package" Epic put forward, noted Jason, who said the company was "keen to help support the game."

"Sometimes, as an independent developer, you've gotta take your chances," he said. "When something like that is offered... you sort of share the risk and share the reward."

It's becoming the pattern with Epic that they are splashing around a lot of money to secure exclusives, from lower-profile crowd-funded projects like Phoenix Point to higher-profile Kickstarter titles like Shenmue 3, all the way to larger titles from third-parties like Metro and ZA4.

I can understand the business appeal to a lot of outfits, but as a customer the Epic Store offers none of the features I want, and with the lower store cut and the money being spent on securing titles like this, as well as the investment in time, staff and money being put into Fortnite I don't see anything like feature parity with Steam coming soon.

I see the comparison regularly that this is just like Xbox vs PlayStation in terms of platform exclusives, but I think that given the bare-bones Epic Store and the apparent lack of interest from Epic in improving that (I think their roadmap for feature improvement had features due in April that still haven't materialised) that's a bit disingenuous; one is a mature store backed up by a suite of tools to make PC gaming better, the other is a launcher and not much else. For developers and publishers, the more favourable cut and the reduction of risk upfront is clearly appealing. For customers though...

Classifieds / Dredd trades on eBay...
13 July, 2018, 01:43:25 PM
Trying to shift a few small bits and pieces on eBay, and I've got some Dredd collections up with around an hour to go. I'll combine postage on multiple items, so hopefully these will go today :-)

Included are The Chief Judge's Man, Satan's Island, Total War and Dredd vs Death, and I've got the first Charley's War Titan reprint too :-)

https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/waldodobbs/m.html?item=223048311169&ssPageName=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562

Hi, all

Looking to sell a bundle of Dredd collections. I'm selling:

Judge Dredd: Total War (Rebellion)
Judge Dredd: The Chief Judge's Man (Rebellion)
Judge Dredd: The Complete P.J. Maybe (Rebellion)
Judge Dredd: Satan's Island (Rebellion)
Judge Dredd: Judgment Day (Rebellion/DC)
Judge Dredd: Dredd vs Death (Rebellion/DC)
Judge Death: My Name is Death (Rebellion)

All books come from a smoke-free household and have been stored on a bookcase for years and are in very good condition (barring one small ding on the top of the spine of "The Complete P.J. Maybe")

Ideally I'd like to sell them for around £7 each + whatever the P&P comes to - I've got a nasty bill coming in this month! - but I can offer combined P&P and I might be up for a bulk discount if someone takes the lot in one go.

I don't always see PMs straight away, so if anyone is interested post here and I'll drop you a PM.

Cheers!  :)

Hope this is OK to post here! I'm selling off some of my duplicates on eBay right now to raise some Christmas money, and there may be something of interest on there for board members. I'd be happy to do postage discounts etc. on multiple purchases, so if anyone fancies a bundle of progs I can do better pricing than the individual P&P.

Cheers!

Help! / Bryan Talbot - creator-owned work?
14 November, 2012, 11:10:43 PM
Hi, all

Working on a Talbot-related project and I'm trying to put together a list of his creator-owned work. Can anyone help? I was sure things like Luther Arkwright, Grandville, One Bad Rat etc. were creator-owned, but when I started trying to verify online I couldn't turn up anything concrete.

Many thanks!

General / Researching The Undercity?
10 May, 2012, 01:47:47 PM
Haven't been a regular here for so long, I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I'll rely on the friendliness and gentle chiding of the forum regulars to steer me ;-)

Which Dredd stories or supplemental material would be the best places to grab Undercity info? I can think of "Cry of the Werewolf", "Necropolis", the Judge Prager tale from a few years back, "Judge Dredd v Aliens" and a couple of others, but are there any I'm missing? Looking for anything about how it was constructed, laws regarding it, general background flavour etc.

Finally getting around to the last stage of my clear-out, and it's time for me to (reluctantly :-( ) part with my set of four Dom Reardon commissions.

The theme for the four was "classic monsters", and the subjects are "The Mummy", "Dracula", "Frankenstein" and "Wolf Man". Each piece is A4 size and they were hand-drawn, scanned then digitally coloured and printed by Dom.

I've listed all four on eBay - links below - at under the price I paid for them. While I'd like to make a bit more money from them - twin girls are expensive! - I'd be happy to make something and see them go to a good home.

I'll be happy to answer any questions here, or through eBay. Cheers!

Hope this is the right place for this - been bloody ages since I've been here :-)

I've got a cashflow problem right now (twin girls, with another due in June!) that means I'm having to contemplate selling off a couple of pieces of artwork from my small collection.

I have the original SB Davis art for the cover of Megazine 202, the first cover appearance for Black Siddha, and a set of four colour illustrations of famous movie monsters that I commissioned from Dom Reardon.

I know how much I paid initially for these pieces some five or so years ago, but I'm not sure how to set a reasonable value on them now.

Can anyone offer some advice - and if this is in the wrong forum, please let me know and I'll repost!

Sad to part with it, but needs must :-(

I'm selling all ten pages of the artwork for the classic Caballistics story, Weird War Tales, along with one great page from the Pat Mills/Simon Davis Indian superhero tale, Black Siddha. I think the starting price for both is reasonable, and I hope they'll find a good new home!

Classifieds / Selling 2K art...
18 November, 2008, 01:34:13 PM
Long time no see!

Impending nuptials (and lack of money!) mean I'm going to be forced to part with some of my art collection, but I'd like some advice from the rest of the board on how best to go about this.

I have the complete artwork for Caballistics, Inc. - Weird War Tales (10 B&W A3 pages) and, initially at least, that's all I'm prepared to part with (and that will be bad enough!). Any advice on where to sell, how to sell etc. would be welcome.

Cheers!

Reef brings Rogue Trooper® to Wii

Reef Entertainment has confirmed it has agreed an exclusive deal with the UK Developer Rebellion to launch their 2000 AD character Rogue Trooper® videogame globally on Wii�.

For those who donâ??t know the character, Rogue Trooper® is a genetically engineered soldier of the future, and is unique in videogames as he has an distinct armoury; a rifle, helmet and backpack, which contain the â??personalitiesâ?? of his fallen comrades, providing him the capabilities of 4 soldiers in one. A â??biochipâ?? is installed within each â??Genetic Infantrymanâ?? or â??GIâ?? from birth which then records their personalities and training upon their death. These biochips are then removed and can then be inserted within energized slots on a fellow GIâ??s rifle, helmet or backpack to secure them for their return to base and re-cloning.

Rogue Trooper®: The Quartz Zone Massacre is the story of how Rogue Trooper® and his comrades are betrayed by a traitor general on their first mission to an area on Nu Earth known as the Quartz Zone. Only Rogue survives, and joined by his fallen comrades within his equipment, he begins a journey across Nu Earth to find the general and unleash his revenge!

Rogue Trooper® is one of the 2000 ADâ??s most endearing characters. First appearing in 1981, he was created by Gerry Finlay-Day and Dave Gibbons of Watchmen fame and was intended to run only a few years, but fans continually demanded more adventures. Rogue Trooper® has also enjoyed many reincarnations as a videogame throughout the last 20 years, most recently as the critically acclaimed and BAFTA nominated 3rd person shooter on PS2, Xbox and PC.

The Wii version promises to provide even greater immersive gameplay with the unique Wii control interface where kill shots are more accurate and certainly more creative than its console forebears.

In addition, Rebellion has provided additional tweaks and polish to the overall game so ensuring the Wii version of the game is the very best yet.

Peter Rezon, CEO of Reef said; â??Rogue Trooper®:The Quartz Zone Massacre is one of the best games Reef has been involved with, and to win this contract for the Wii version is fantastic. Were taking a hit game to a unique console where we believe the exciting elements weâ??ve added will make this 3rd shooter a hugely successful Wii title.â??

Rogue Trooper®: The Quartz Zone Massacre will be released in Q4 2008


A late port, but interesting news nonetheless. Hopefully Rebellion & Reef will fix some of the issues with the original â?? the difficulty level, for example â?? and polish the game up graphically for the more powerful Wii hardware (though given the history of PS2-to-Wii ports, I hold out little hope).

Off Topic / The Grauniad of Nox?
04 February, 2008, 04:12:37 PM
Picked up my papers this morning and had a quick flick through the Guardian G2 supplement only to be confronted with a pic of Doomlord being compared to Rudy Giuliani. It was submitted by Gareth MacLean, a name I'm sure I recognise from here, so own up - which one of you was it?

Gave me a giggle anyway :-)

General / Which Rebellion trades have had new editions?
29 October, 2007, 07:10:15 PM
Hope someone can help with this. I lost track of exactly which of the Rebellion/DC collections have since been republished in the standard Rebellion trade dress (sometimes with minor tweaks, like Bad Company's corrected print) and I'm looking for a list of all trades reprinted to date.

Can anyone assist? And if I want to order one online, is there a surefire way to ensure I get the new edition and not the old?

Megazine / High Rise of the Robots! -- Megazine 261
23 July, 2007, 06:39:46 PM
Cover -- Lovely stuff

Dredd -- Gorgeous art & a great surprise (or it should have been - more in a mo')

Anderson -- Plodding along, this hasn't really engaged me yet & the strip art lacks something that the cover has

Satanus -- Mental art & mental script. There's little point complaining about it, so I'm just enjoying the lunatic ride & treating it as fan-fic from some obscure indy comic

Reapermen -- Still great, and one of the great 2K missed opportunities IMO

The Angel Gang -- Fun, but beginning to lose me a little in spite of some clever moments & some gorgeous art from Roberts

Text Features -- Molcher & Berridge hit the mark while  the film articles miss as usual

Small Press -- Meh.

Letters -- I must admit I did have a little snigger at Matt's skewering in the last letter. Sorry!

...and back to my Dredd complaint:

What idiot thought it would be a good idea to ruin the surprise in this month's Dredd by plastering it on the cover of the Meg? Thanks a bundle, whoever you are.

Prog / Prog 1532 -- Breaking the Law
07 April, 2007, 11:37:48 AM
...avoiding the second part of the tagline so as not to spoil it for anyone who hasn't read the last prog or two :-)

ORIGINS climbs up another notch with some fantastic scenes between Dredd & the erstwhile President of the United States - Booth's bitter speech about his release from suspended animation being a particularly good one.

The appearance of Fargo - the "God Judge" - alive & well, albeit still in suspended animation, suggests he may rise to serve his city one last time. Perhaps just long enough to convince the NMA to turn on Booth?

Meanwhile SAVAGE rockets toward its conclusion. This has been a less OTT story than previous "books", but no worse for it.

SINISTER DEXTER is on good form as well, and watching Finny's plan coming together (Finnigan Peppard?) has been great fun. Great art from Davis as well. The only real question left is: Will he get Ramone out of there?

A cracking FUTURE SHOCK from Al Ewing with some decent art from Edison George. Like the best of Ewing's shorts, this has echoes of the Golden Age of 2000AD Shock's without ever feeling like a pisstake. You get the feeling that Ewing really loves the OTT dialogue and settings, and his excitement leaps off the page - it's hard not to read this with a smile on your face.

Finally, NIKOLAI DANTE returns to Rudinshtein. Opening with a surprisingly poignant panel & closing with yet another of Dante's promises to this broken city, this promises to be a bleak break from the main storyline. Some cracking art from John Burns - much better than his last work on the series - adds to the mood.

It's not often we get a prog with no weak links, but this is definitely one. Enjoy it while it lasts, because this is Thrill Power at its finest!

Picked up the new Radio Times today & it comes complete with Russell Davies' rundown of all 13 episodes of the new series of Doctor Who. For anyone who's interested - and can bear spoilers - here they are, starting with:

SPOILER
*
*
*
*
*
SPOILER
*

*

EPISODE 1
"SMITH AND JONES"
Writer -- Russell T Davies
Guest stars -- Anne Reid, Roy Marsden


"Welcome on board, Martha Jones!" says Russell T Davies. "She's 23, a medical student, and her family's going into meltdown. Dad's run off with his secretary, Mum's boiling with fury, brother Leo's got a six-month old baby, and sister Tish is all ambition, thinking only of her next job. Martha's stuck in the middle, as the peacemaker. Just the sort of woman who needs an escape."

"Before you know it, mysterious storms are sweeping across London, sinister motorcycle couriers are stalking the hospital and Martha finds herself transported to the Moon! That's just the beginning of her troubles, as the alien Judoon arrive in a fleet of mighty spaceships - big, brutal space police! Only one man seems to know what's going on: a patient called John Smith. And he claims he's some sort of Doctor."

"When we first introduced Rose [in 2005], we were introducing a whole new audience to the concepts of Doctor Who at the same time, so sci-fi events invaded her life gradually over the first episode. With Martha, it's the opposite - she's thrown straight in at the deep end, away from Earth, surrounded by aliens and struggling to save the lives of everyone around her. I did think of calling this episode 'Baptism of Fire'!"

EPISODE 2
"THE SHAKESPEARE CODE"
Writer -- Gareth Roberts
Guest stars -- Dean Lennox Kelly


"Martha's baptism continues. With any new companion, it's important to show them the sheer range and breadth of the Doctor's life, so we've taken her back to 1599, when Shakespeare's at the height of his powers, in London's Globe Theatre. But if you're ten years old and the word 'Shakespeare' makes you groan, then rest assured, this isn't just a history lesson. There are witch-like creatures at work, strange deaths - a man drowns on dry land! - some terrible puns and a fearful plot dating back to the dawn of the universe."

"I think this might be our most lavish production yet. We try to film in and around Cardiff, but there aren't many Elizabethan settings around here, so the team had to travel to Warwick, Coventry and to the Globe itself for some magnificent location filming. And many thanks to the Globe for allowing us in - I hope we increase ticket sales!"

EPISODE 3
"GRIDLOCK"
Writer -- Russell T Davies
Guest star -- Ardal O'Hanlon


"Martha's eyes are opened even further, as the Tardis returns to the year five billion, on the planet New Earth, where the Doctor and Rose fought off cat-nurse nuns and zombie patients. It's a bit like the Doctor taking Martha to places where he took his ex - which Martha soon notices! But before long, greedy Pharmacists, hapless kidnappers and terrifying Beasts from Below have thrown her into danger. And all because the Doctor told a lie."

"I love these futuristic, far-off adventures because it's a chance to see every single design department working at full tilt - sets, costume, make-up, prosthetics and CGI, all creating an extraordinary and deadly world. At the heart of which, the Doctor's old friend, the Face of Boe, is waiting with a secret."

EPISODES 5-6
"DALEKS IN MANHATTAN" & "EVOLUTION OF THE DALEKS"
Writer -- Helen Raynor
Guest stars -- Miranda Raison, Hugh Quarshie & Ryan Carnes


"Another baptism of fire - this time for our script editor, Helen Raynor, who's an equally fine writer. Sometimes I give writers a shopping list of elements, and this was the barmiest one yet: 1930s New York, Pig Men, sewers, showgirls and the Empire State Building. Oh, yes, and Daleks too. Make a story out of that!"

"Helen's done a brilliant job, combining the Depression with the Daleks' desperation to survive and adding a good bit of 'The Island of Dr Moreau'. Not to mention 'Frankenstein'! Be prepared to see the Daleks as you've never seen them before."

EPISODE 6
"THE LAZARUS EXPERIMENT"
Writer -- Stephen Greenhorn
Guest stars -- Mark Gatiss, Thelma Barlow


"Marvel Comics! That's what I said to Stephen Greenhorn. Give us a good old mad scientist, with an experiment going wrong, and an outrageous supervillain on the loose."

"This episode also marks a return to modern-day Earth and a chance to find out what's been happening to Martha's family in her absence. With every series, we've woven in a small linking theme, which gradually builds to the series climax - series one, we had the mystery of Bad Wolf, and series two saw the creation of Torchwood. This time, pay attention to the enigmatic paymaster of Professor Lazarus as a trap plotted across the whole of time and space begins to close..."

EPISODE 7
"42"
Writer -- Chris Chibnall
Guest star - Michelle Collins


"The 42nd century, a spaceship in a far-flung galaxy, saboteurs at work, crew members possessed, and the terrifying catchphrase 'Burn with me'. To be honest, I love that title as I can't wait to see the Radiot Times billing for this episode: (7/13. 42). Dial that number, you get a free pizza."

EPISODES 8-9
"HUMAN NATURE" & "THE FAMILY OF BLOOD"
Writer -- Paul Cornell
Guest stars -- Jessica Hynes (formerly Stevenson), Harry Lloyd


A very different sort of story - though still with monsters and scares galore! But when you're got David Tennant as your lead actor (call me biased, but The Best Actor in the Land, frankly), then you want to write stories that push the Doctor into completely new territory. And these two episodes take the Time Lord to places he's never been before, all in the haunting setting of a boys' public school in 1913; the winter before the War, with a chill in the air, and mysterious lights in the sky. If ever you thought scarecrows were scary, you ain't seen nothing yet."

EPISODE 10
"BLINK"
Writer -- Steven Moffat
Guest star -- Carey Mulligan


"The King of Terror, that's Mr Moffat. He was the genius behind that gas mask child with his sinister lament of 'Are you my mummy?' and the tick-tock clockwork droids who stalked Madame de Pompadour. But this one!"

"To be honest, Doctor Who rarely scares me, because I've seen all the behind-the-scenes prosthetics and computer trickery, and I've lived with the scripts for months. But when I watch this episode - I'm not kidding - I'm scared to death! Go on, I dare you. Close the curtains. Turn the lights off. Huddle round the TV. Clutch your loved ones. And shiver."

EPISODE 11
"UTOPIA"
Writer -- Russell T Davies
Guest stars -- Derek Jacobi & John Barrowman


"Jack's back! As John Barrowman's Captain Jack Harkness comes storming back on board the Tardis - with an arrival like no companion has had before - it's time for the Tardis's wildest ride yet! It hurtles out of control, taking the crew to the distant planet Malcassairo, where a lonely and patient professor is giving his all to save his people from extinction."

EPISODES 12-13
"THE SOUNDS OF DRUMS" & "LAST OF THE TIME LORDS"
Writer -- Russell T Davies
Guest stars -- John Simm, Tom Ellis & Nichola McAuliffe


"The season finale! And the trap closes, as the Doctor, Martha and Captain Jack find themselves in a desperate fight for survival."

"Who are the Toclafane? What is the power of Archangel? And what terrible secrets are stored at the heart of the Valiant? It's an epic and heartbreaking story, as the Doctor faces his greatest enemy yet. Now, I wonder who that could be..."
