Multiwinia in Total PC Gaming

Postby Chris » Fri Jun 13, 2008 10:56 am

We are delighted to announce Total PC Gaming is running a fantastic eight page preview in this months issue, on sale now in UK shops. You can see us on the front cover if you look really closely - "Britsoft at its best!"

Image

The article is written by David Crookes and covers Introversion’s history and our plans for Multiwinia. We spent a whole day playing the game with David and took him out for lunch, and had a great chat about Introversion and games in general.

This is the first of the coverage for Multiwinia in the games press and more will be coming soon!

Well, I for one am going to buy it ( issue 08 ) - only £2 shipping to Denmark/EU, that's a first. Perhaps there might even be other interesting stuff in there, apart from the 8 page Multiwinia/IV bonus :roll:

You did make it to the front cover after all, too! Great job on that (although that's not a first :))

Yeah, I have to say I prefer Nutter's beautiful cover to the generic prerendered warrior babe. Poor show, Total PC Gaming.

Generic prerendered warrior babe's head on Squall's torso would be more masculine than him and more effeminate than her. Discuss.

Correct.

What is more beautiful a female darwinian or generic prerendered warrior babe. Discuss.

Perhaps Darwinians should have cleavage so as to amplify their cover appeal.

/me shudders at the thought of someone using that idea for a mod.

The two of you lack vision! Just for Total PC Gaming, I present "Breastwinians!"

The sprite:

And a slightly enlarged version showing what it should look like in game:

I think a "The goggles! They do nothing!" is applicable here.

Somehow I knew someone was going to do it. :roll:

Sigh...another cover given over to digital breasts. I don't think they realize that a Darwinian on the cover would attract WAY more attention than another generic big-breasted female avatar. That picture has no personality, no artistic flare...just boobs. If games sold stricly based on breast-content then wouldn't Guild Wars pretty much own the MMO Market? They have by FAR the best looking female avatars.

I'm sure it wasn't JUST the breasts though...to be fair I'm sure that Age of Conan also spent eleventy billion dollars in advertising to steal that cover. I'm not sure what all the fuss is about, though. It's just another MMO that won't come close to touching WoW's market share. In fact when Warhammer comes out, these two are going to be slugging it out for the increasingly small percentage of non-WoW-playing MMO gamers. I predict epic fail for at least one of them.
