 "Rumor Control #1: Getting Lost!")
After hearing about the Desperate Housewives video game adaptation, I’ve gone pretty numb within, so no amount of franchise milking can really shock me (unless of course they really do make a game on Oprah Winfrey). Hence I wasn’t that appalled when I heard rumors about the video game adaptation of ABC’s drama, ‘Lost’. Not only is the game rumored to have a single player campaign, but it may have a multiplayer mode as well that’ll pit the survivors against something. I wouldn’t put it past them to make the game a cross between Far Cry (lush, dangerous island) and the Sims (dealing with a bunch of emo wrecks). Since April fool’s day is approaching, rumor mills have been shoved into over drive but most of them should be put to rest by E3 2006.
Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
