Yeah, I know, sorry, I had lots of things to do.

The content train will be rolling soon.

Recently on Steam, Killing Floor was updated with some new content along with allowing everyone to download and play free for the entire weekend (which is something that happens on Steam quite frequently with other games).

Killing Floor is an UT2K4 mod made by Tripwire Interactive, creators of Source Mod Red Orchestra.

When Killing Floor was first released, I figured it was just a Left 4 Dead clone and even though I was thinking about buying it, I ultimately decided not to (as I found Left 4 Dead to be very repetitive and didn’t want to go through that again).

I decided to pick it up during the free weekend, and well, I haven’t stopped playing since. I bought it for $14.99 21 minutes before the free weekend was over, as I did not want to interrupt my game play.

I have logged more than 30+ hours playing this game in the last 3 days. Seriously.

I will create a more in-depth review later, but my opinion is BUY BUY BUY.

Tuesday 20th, the Orange County Chapter of IGDA had one of their first meetings in an attempt to bring independent game developers from around Orange County and even from Los Angeles together to meet and greet eachother while taking the first steps to becoming charted with IGDA. The meeting was held at the Motion Capture Lab at Obsidian Entertainment in Irvine, with guest speaker Feargus Urquhart, CEO of Obsidian Entertainment. Urquhart made a very informative presentation about Contracts and Agreements, which I found to be very helpful in many of my current agreements with developers and publishers I am currently dealing with.
Next meeting is to be held on November 17th, which the group will start the running for board positions.

After I acquire the pictures Estill took during the meeting (including a few shots of me sitting in the front row literally 2 feet away from CEO Feargus Urquhart), I will update this post accordingly.

Heres a pic of me and Johnnie Estill, photographer of the event and brilliant instructor at The Art Institute of Orange County.

VLC sometimes does not play this right so use something like Windows Media Player 11. <_ <; Also, I totally had my Windows Media Player 11 on a shuffle of “Top 100 Songs of the 80s”, and FRAPS usually never works with recording the audio I am hearing instead of my microphone, but this time it did. How odd. I think the overplayed cliche stalker song works well here though.
