TDO News: The Wastelander Program!
Posted on April 22, 2008 by Light_Jak

Hi all,

I wanted to make you all aware of our new program running on the forums that will (hopefully) increase activity and it's pretty worthwhile since you get a couple perks that other members don't get.

More information on the Wastelander program is located here:

The Wastelander Program [4-3-08]

Cheers,

RUMOR: Videos from a new Jak game!
Posted on April 18, 2008 by Dark_Dax

Two videos have surfaced on Youtube known as Jak Training Video 1 and Jak Training Video 2. They appear to be of an unreleased Jak game  in mid-development, they even include the voice acting of Mike Erwin and Max Casella. That may as well prove they're official to me. But I can't help but wonder how the uploader, aliasfront, got these videos. His profile contains several Uncharted videos, is it possible he works for Naughty Dog?

Update: It seems that aliasfront is actually Van Phan, a Cenimatic Animator whom has done work on Uncharted. And according to some comments made by aliasfront which I unfortunately dismissed before </deepshame>, the game was postponed. He didn't provide any information on how long the game would be postponed, however.

The videos have been removed from his YouTube page so the links will lead you nowhere. Hopefully Van didn't get fired for his spill.

Credit goes to chibi-jak and ecokitty for the info. I'll update as soon as more info comes in.


Jak X News: Bad news for Online Players...
Posted on April 07, 2008 by Dark_Dax
I regret to inform you that Sony will be shutting down the servers for Jak X and various other games on June 30. And that just blows...

I suggest that everyone who plays online get a few more games in before the servers shut down, 'cause you won't be able to ever again after June 30. I, unfortunately, have never been able to play online. I do hope that those of you who have enjoy it while it lasts...


Naughty Dog: Big Red Button!
Posted on February 16, 2008 by Dark_Dax
Believe it or not, but that's not a random title. NanoEliete666 has posted an interesting article concerning some old ND veterans:

"Naughty Dog veterans Bob Rafei and E. Daniel Arey have gone off to form their own game development studio known as Big Red Button Entertainment. According to the studio's web site, it currently has six original intellectual properties in conceptual development for cross-platform purposes."
