A couple of interesting things I dug up...
« on: December 15, 2011, 02:51:42 pm »
So, I went back in time to the late 1990s and dug up a couple of things.

This guy in (somewhat) high resolution:




And an official trailer video for KFII(US), in three different versions:
Large (lol, "large"...)
Small
Avi with no sound



Those are all taken from ASCII's official website, from back when KF(US) and KFII(US) were the only games they had released, and their site looked like something made by a five year old. WayBackMachine FTW! ;D

PS: VLC plays the files perfectly. :)

Nice finds. I'm pretty sure that "sword guy" was drawn by Tim Lindquist; he said he designed most of the KF2(US) strategy guide and game covers. The art style is similar to other things he's done too.

If you find any nice pages, you should add them to the "KF Links" page of the wiki

Yeah, it was the weirdest thing... Some sharp sword thing dropped out of the sky, right into my eye! It hurt pretty much, and my eye didn't look particularly good afterwards, so I just hid my damaged eye away until I get it healed. Yeah, I can do that. Not quite sure where that sword landed though... Probably behind me somewhere, haven't looked there yet. You know how easy it is to fall off this thin bridge that I'm standing on? It would take me ages to turn around just to look for a sword that may or may not have fallen in my toilet - what did you think that space behind was for? Yeah, this place is still under construction, going to put up a few walls and stuff. Already got a couple of supporting pillars for the roof over there, as you can see. I tried installing lights too, but they're moving all over the place. Probably should've waited until after I got the walls up... Anyway, the sword - it may have fallen down into the endless darkness, but I'm pretty sure I heard a "clinky" sound when I hurt my eye. So if it didn't just hit the ground here before falling further, it's either behind one of those pillars, or in my toilet. Yes, my *toilet*! Why else would I stick my tail in there?

I really should get some sleep now... :saint:

Haha! Very nice!

I once made a fanfic in virtua fighter which was very similiar to this. I posted it in a forum and people loved it - though soon began to slate its ridiculous humour.

Haha, I hope you and your chair are alright! :P Seriously, that's what happens when I stay up until five in the morning... Not good! xD

@Verdite: Well, haters gonna hate. Hope you didn't take it in on yourself. :)
