Check Out These COD: WWII Trailers


Another year, another COD, another COD live-action trailer. You know the deal.

Typically explosive, celebrity-riddled affairs, this year's instalments dial it back down a bit. Notice I said 'instalments'? That's because today, three similar, yet different trailers for this year's title were released. There's one for the US, one for the UK, and one for France. They're all good fun, give them a watch.

As with the Black Ops 'Replacer' ads, the focus here is on dropping whatever's going on in your 'real life' to play some good ol' Call of Duty. But with less Peter Stormare.

Call of Duty: WWII launches November 3rd.

Antoine Boutin: A Career in Concept Art

Image
[This article was originally created in July 2018 for the rather short-lived website Envision Gaming, which I wrote a few pieces for, before it sort of imploded. The interview was carried out via e-mail.] Antoine Boutin has made a career out of creating art for games, ads, and film. He’s currently working for One Pixel Brush, a company that outsources their hires to AAA and indie devs in order to create concept art, a crucial part of any game’s production. Among Antoine’s portfolio is art for Detroit: Become Human, Quantic Dream’s latest narrative epic. I got in touch with Antoine and he shed some light on his work, his inspirations, and his process. Street Life ( Detroit: Become Human) | Antoine Boutin/Quantic Dream Hi, Antoine! First of all, can you introduce yourself?

Hurt Records, and a Talk with Its Founder

Image
[Uni assignment, scroll on if you're here for games. :)] I made a playlist recently. This playlist contained all the music I have on my phone that was released by, or artists represented by, the independent label Hurt Records . It comes up to 1,240 minutes, or just under 21 hours. That's no small amount of music. Hurt was founded in 2014, though the music you can find there stretches back to 2007. Amongst its archive, you can find nine albums, 11 EPs, and a wide variety of singles, from artists including Two Down, Quiet One, and Portraits. Again, no small amount, and even more impressive considering six of the seven acts represented by Hurt are bands/projects created or partially created by the same person who founded the label. That person is Ben Slack (more commonly known on the internet as Benn, or Benn Down). I recently e-mailed Benn and sent him a mass variety of questions relating to Hurt, his music, and his other ventures. The oldest project in Hurt’s r

[Video version here -  bit.ly/35QPsg4 ] [Note - This article is pretty much just a paste of the video script. I've changed some parts here and there so they actually make sense to read, though of course, some parts will translate better with visual accompaniment.] An NYPD detective faces the combined fury of Norse inspired drug peddlers and the schizophrenic manifestations of his own mind, in the search for the truth behind the death of his family. A successful author, looking for his missing wife, is attacked by his own creations, forewarned by the pages of the novel he can’t remember writing. The brother of a revolutionary scientist is granted time-controlling powers by an experiment gone wrong, and faces the wrath of a corporation hellbent on stopping the end of time itself. And, the director of a confidential government agency works to contain the otherworldly threats within an ever-shifting trans-dimensional building, using supernatural powers, aided by the ghost of the former
