Batman: Arkham Asylum 2 VIDEO – Arkham has moved!

Arkham has moved! The sequel we didn’t see coming. Arkham has moved? To cheers from the audience, “Arkham has moved” was flashed on the screen as the teaser to the sequel of Batman: Arkham Asylym was shown during the 2009 Video Game Awards. Nothing much was revealed other than The Joker in his twisted best yet again, most probably even more devious and convoluted because of what transpired in Asylum 1. The video (copy posted below) shows scenes of chaos and crime, scenes we should expect to be much worse in the sequel.

Arkham has moved, Batman Arkham Asylum 2 (video). Looking for the Arkham Asylum 2 teaser: Arkham has moved?

On the first screen with the car you’ve rammed to the convenience store, there are items you can pick. But you’re right, this is a mess. Oh boy, I’ve really screwed up now.

Nothing much here, let’s take a look at the next screen on the right. You will notice a bunch of rack with items. Take a look on the middle rack with the glasses souvenirs at the bottom. Note them. Chicago, New York, Las Vegas, Boston.

Click the third rack, and take a lock out tool in the slim jim box at the front. Take a look at the right, after the Soda dispenser and you’ll see the hotdog display. You can get a key underneath this table. There’s also another key on the next screen to the right. It’s on the cashier’s machine on the white box. Look at what’s behind this table by clicking somewhere on top. You’ll see a vault, use the first key (gold) you got and get a scratch card. Use the second key (silver) to open the drawer on this scene. Get a screwdriver.

Now let’s get back to the area with slushie dispenser. Use the screwdriver on the phone booth to get a coin. Click on the sratch card, then click on the coin. Rub out the scratch card to reveal a code, 4872. Geez, as if we can’t use our nail. Alright so this is only a game.

You know where to input this code right? On the 3 grocery rack, there’s an electronic rack. Input 4872 and you’ll unlock the cooler. Open the middle cooler by clicking on its handle and take the bottle with label. You’ll get a bottle of Iced Tea. Click the ? on this Iced Tea to view in full size, click on the cap, then take the cap. Click on the cap and notice the code, A12345.

Get back to the scene where you started and use the lock out tool to open the rear door. Take the glove. Click the glove then click on the glass stuff on this area to pick a glass shard.

Go to the counter area, and pop the purple balloon with the glass shard. Get another key. Use this on the locked drawer below the soda dispenser. You’ll get a cup. Now here’s the hard work. Put the cup underneath one of the soda dispenser faucet. Open the faucet by clicking the handle. Bring this full cup to the grocery rack with the glass souvenirs. Fill one, then take another of the color until you fill all four glass souvenirs. Note their colors. Chicago is blue, New York is pink, Las Vegas is orange, and Boston is purple.

Go to the door with the map, and input these colors by clicking on the 4 pins, the colors changes for each game so take note! The first state on the map is Nevada, where Las Vegas is. You get the picture. The map will fall off after you enter the correct color codes. Another electronic passcode will appear. Enter A12345 (written on cap) on your keyboard and you’re free to Escape the Convenience Store!

NOTE! You have to fill up the four glasses, the color code changes for each play.

World of Warcraft Cataclysm spoilers | Wow Cataclysm leaked

OMG, this is great! I cannot believe I found the following details of an upcoming video game expansion. World of Warcraft: Cataclysm spoilers. Yup, details of the new expansion of WoW (World of Warcraft), Cataclysm, have been leaked online through MMO Champion by a
poster under the name Boubouille.

The following details have been compiled based on reports from reliable sources. As posted by Boubouille, the final details will be announced by at the Blizzcon. For now, the following details are what he has gathered. For a more comprehensive understanding of these details, plus tips and links, you may read the original post at this page.

World of Warcraft: Cataclysm is the next expansion for World of Warcraft. Dark and forgotten threats that have long stayed out of sight have finally arrived on our shores, unleashing a cataclysmic event upon Azeroth and now preparing more nefarius plans to take it back.

Level Cap
The level cap in the next expansion will be slightly lower than expected this time around; 85.

This suggests Blizzard wants more room for expansions before hitting the level 100 cap. With less leveling to do (along with the revamped leveling listed below likely to increase the speed and ease of leveling), leveling a new race remains appealing for new and existing players alike.

Leveling from 80-85 should be a much bigger deal, the idea is to make sure that gaining a level really means something and doesn’t make you feel like you just have 4 more levels to go.

New Classes
Cataclysm doesn’t introduce any new classes to the game. Instead, Blizzard have offered more race and classes combinations to players. The Some of these have alreadly been datamined from the 3.2.2 Test Realms. The An Injured Colleague quest and it’s new Night Elf counter-part help to introduce the lore for these new race and class combinations, so we can probably expect to see more of these for some of the less traditional ones.

* Human Hunter
* Orc Mage
* Night Elf Mage
* Dwarf Mage
* Blood Elf Warrior
* Dwarf Shaman
* Undead Hunter
* Tauren Paladin
* Tauren Priest
* Gnome Priest
* Troll Druid

New Races
The events of the cataclysm has caused two new races to seek new allies. The Goblins for the Horde and the Worgen for the Alliance.

Goblins
Deathwing once again sought the services of the goblins, as slaves. Unable to refuse such an offer, the goblins were enslaved by him. A large group have resisted however. With their previous homes devastated by the cataclysm, they escaping to an island off the coast of The Barrens. As they strive to recover, they come across an Orc captured on an Alliance ship and rescue him. The Orc turns out to be none other than Thrall himself, and in return offers the Goblins a place within the Horde. These events are carried out in a quest line, allowing players to experience first-hand the reasons behind the Goblins’ shift from neutrality.

Worgen
The cataclysm has cracked open the Greymane Wall, finally revealing what has happened to the kingdom of Gilneas and its citizens. With the Worgen curse taken hold, they have found a partial cure, allowing thme to retain their Human minds even when transformed. Venturing forth from Gilneas and seeking help from the Alliance, they have decided to join them, to combat the new threats of Cataclysm.

Gilneas will make extensive use of the phasing system (much like the Death Knight starting area), to show what happened while the kingdom was cut off from the rest of the world and lead up to present day.

Worgens will have two forms, a Worgen form and a Human form. Players will be able to customise the look of both forms.

New Content
Cataclysm will be the first expansion not to introduce a new continent, instead making use of previously unreleased zones and revamping existing ones.

Classic Azeroth Revamp
A cataclysmic event caused by Deathwing and Azshara will change the face of Azeroth as we know it. Most of the new content for Cataclysm will take the form of a revamped Azeroth, taking advantage of newer additions to WoW such as phasing and daily quests. Most of the quests and mobs in the classic zones will also be redesigned to make leveling less painful. With the revamp, a greater narritive and sense progression will be offered to players. Some zones and dungeons will change drastically to fit this, e.g.,

* The Barrens will be split into two separate zones of two different level bands.
* Azshara will become a low level (~10-20) zone.
* Some of the zones like the Thousand Needles will be flooded.
* Durotar is wrecked and apparently Orgrimmar could be destroyed. A new Orc city is rebuilt over the course of the expansion.
* Gnomeregan will be part of the expansion as well and gnomes might be able to reclaim their capital. (The last part is still unconfirmed)
* Wailing Caverns will be become a lush tropical area as a result of the druid’s magic.
* The Blackrock Spire will erupt and a new version of Blackrock Mountains will be available, apparently Ragnaros will be back too.

In the aftermath of the cataclysm, and the new conflicts on the horizon relief efforts can be found in many zones and new open PvP areas similar to Lake Wintergrasp.

Flying in Azeroth
Part of the redesign of the Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor is the introduction of flying to the two continents, allowing access to many new areas and quicker travelling across the large continents.

Classic Dungeon Revamp
Redesigning Onyxia’s Lair in Patch 3.2.2 was just the first step. As most of the leveling will take place in revamped areas of Azeroth, so too will the dungeons, allowing players to use them to level from 80 to 85.

Unreleased Zones & Dungeons
With the addition of flying mounts to Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms and the redesign of many zones, most of the previously unreachable or incomplete zones will now be made available to players. This is where most of the new content from 80 to 85 will take place. Some of these are,

* Hyjal (present)
* Gilneas – The Worgen starting Zone.
* Uldum

It is unclear if the old Goblin locations such as Kezan and Undermine will be included in Cataclyms with the revelation of the goblins’ plight, but several new islands have also been risen from the seas by the events of Cataclysm, some on the backs of giant sea turtles and whales, with the addition of several underwater zones.

Characters and Events

Deathwing
Deathwing the Destroyer / Neltharion the Earth-Warder will play a major role in Cataclysm. Having been driven mad by Old God whisperings and turning against his own kind only to be fail in his attempts, Deathwing has sunk into the shadows. While the Horde and the Alliance were busy
fighting back the Burning Legion only to then be beset with the Scourge, he has been lurking and moving things into place. After Lady Sinestra’s failed attempts to create a Twilight Dragonflight, he again retreated to Grim Batol and succeeded where she failed. With his results seen in the Obsidian Sanctum, he has finally created the supreme Dragonflight he sought and plans to unleash it upon the world. But what of the Old Gods’ sway over him?

Azshara
Queen Azshara will also play a major part in Cataclysm. Unknown to many mortal races, long forgotten by others, and believe to be dead by her own kind, she has not been dormant in depths of the Maelstrom. Having those around her transformed by the Old Gods into Naga after her failure in the War of the Ancients, she has become far more powerful and a greater threat than she once was. Not content with just Nazjatar and the depths of the sea, Azshara seeks to reclaim power and reign once again. With the true plan behind Lady Vashj’s support of Illidan remaining a mystery we do not know what hand Azshara has yet played. The big question remains, is she now serving her “saviors”, the Old Gods?

The Cataclysm
I’m still not sure who is the true end boss of Cataclysm is, but the cataclysm appears to have been caused by attempts to incantation to summon extremely powerful beings using an ancient incantation by Deathwing and Azshara. They’re both very powerful, but the cataclysm itself suggests something more powerful is behind it, perhaps their shared past of Old God influence?

The Guardian of Tirisfal
Malfurion Stormrage will be returning to Azeroth to aid in the creation of the new Guardian of Tirisfal – Thrall! Med’an’s role in these events is currently unknown.

The New (New) Horde
Thrall will hand over the leadership of the Horde to Garrosh Hellscream, while he serves as a coordinator for both the Horde and Alliance forces in and effort to combat the new threat of the Naga and Black Dragonflight. Without Thrall to keep Garrosh in check, he declares open war on the Alliance. In the political upheaval Cairne Bloodhoof is implicated as a traitor to the Horde and murdered by Garrosh. Cairne’s son Baine takes over as the new Tauren chieftan. This could explain why Baine was removed from the game in Patch 3.2.2, you can find more information about this in Ahmo Thunderhorn – replacement for Baine Bloodhoof?

World of Warcraft freakout video: boy goes crazy over Warcraft


This is a good one. We know how addicting World of Warcraft can be. Many of us have played the game and we know the feeling. But watch this video as a boy freaks out when his parents cancel his World of Warcraft account. It’s actually quite hilarious and scary at the same time. Good thing I snapped out of my video game addiction before something like this happened to me. The video has been called the “greatest freak out ever!”

You what’s so funny about this? For one thing, was he trying to stuff the remote into his ass? Ha ha. And despite all his shouting and ranting, when his dad told him to shut up, he suddenly became quiet. Now that’s a good boy.
