What's the max headroom incident of videogames?

Joel McHale?

Polybuis

We lack any newspaper nerds to have one.

That doesn't even make since

Also my dad was recording doctor who when that happened and got it on tape

>>252885675
Polybuis is an urban legend that was spawned from people observing actual location tests for arcade cabinets.
The Max Headroom incident was somebody hijacking a public TV broadcast.

>Hilarious and fantastic hijacking on a videogame
I think we are searching for a great hacking or some kind of awesome griefing on vidya here guys.

I'm surprised the hijacker hasn't come forward yet. Surely the crime has expired by now.

Max Headroom is a fictional British artificial intelligence, known for his wit and stuttering, distorted, electronically sampled voice. He was introduced in early 1984.

It was a british show set in the US.

Also the actual Max Headroom character was not CGI. It was heavy makeup and lighting because the CGI tech just wasn't there yet.

Actually, there's something else Kenji Eno did that might apply better here:

1UP: Um...wow. OK, let's get back to Warp's exciting history. Years ago, you caused quite a stir at a Japanese press event when, rather than announcing that Warp's future titles would be coming to Sony's PlayStation, you instead chose to reveal an exclusive deal with Sega...and then went on to stomp all over a plush doll of Sony's MuuMuu mascot from Jumping Flash! Did that really happen?

KE: Maybe, but I don't think it did. [Laughs]

1UP: I know you did transform a PlayStation logo -- right as everyone's watching -- the logo transformed into a Sega Saturn logo. So, at a Sony event, a Sony festival, where you're onstage to announce your deal with Sony, you actually announce that Warp would be making games for the Sega Saturn. Which, I don't know who has the balls to do that these days, but you sure did back then. Tell us the story behind that.

[...]

I felt betrayed when Sony was treating me like that, so when I heard that the Sega vice president was a very interesting guy, he and I met and created this whole plot. My original conditions to make the game exclusive for Saturn involved my earlier story about supplying 1,000 Saturns for the blind people, and also to have Sega's president appear onstage, personally, for the event. That was the original plot, and that was what was going to happen until the last minute, but he had a board meeting at Sega, and they were like, "OK, you're actually appearing?" Like, Sega is a big, successful company, and a high-up management-level guy in that kind of company appearing in a situation like that isn't good, so everybody stopped him. So he appeared in a video rather than in person.

1UP: What did he say?

KE: He said, "Welcome to Sega."

tl;dr Kenji Eno trolls Sony at an industry event by playing a video where the PS1 logo morphs into the Saturn logo and Sega's president appears to introduce Eno's new Saturn-exclusive game.

WHAT IS THE DILBERT 3 of VIDYA GAMES.

>>252903046

I read an article recently that had something like that in it:

>And then things really took a turn for the worse: Ben suddenly left the country, stealing the hard drive that contained the game’s source code.

>“One day I had a meeting arranged with Ben and drove to a meet with him (a three-hour drive) but then couldn’t find him at the office,” Iain recalled. ”Nobody knew where he was. Then later that day a young girl turned up at the office to say that Ben was on a plane to Australia and was not coming back. I asked who she was, and she said she was his girlfriend. The whole thing was just too bizarre. So that was it, he had gone. The hard drive with all the source code on it also went, though we had made a back-up but without Ben it was of no use as it was almost entirely written in assembler and unreadable. The best way to interpret things is he had some sort of nervous breakdown, couldn’t cope with the stress and ran away. The worst way to interpret it is that he had no intention of ever finishing the game. After Ben left I never returned to the office in Lincolnshire, and other debtors cleared out was left in the office. It was a very confusing and strange situation. After a few weeks we decided to focus in a new direction.”

>To this day, no one at Slitherine has had any contact with Ben. His whereabouts remain unknown. The police and Interpol were involved at one point in trying to trace him down. “There is still a warrant out for his arrest if he ever returns to Britain,” Iain said. Mike John, T-Tex‘s project manager, pulled a similar stunt as his son by disappearing to Thailand.

Oh yeah, and Kenji Eno was one of the most interesting personalities in the middle of it. I read a story where, during one year's TGS, his company rented out a big booth, filled it with traditional Japanese festival decorations, bought a bunch of booze and hired booth babes to serve it, and then closed it all off from the public, so for the entirety of the event they were just having a big, private party in the middle of TGS every day. The guy was awesome.

He was pretty overweight, which may have had something to do with it. Regardless, it's a crying shame he's no longer with us. He was on the verge of creating games again.

Another good interview (even if it is Kotaku): http://kotaku.com/5987522/kenji-eno-speaks-his-mind-in-this-unpublished-interview

And something else very interesting: http://gamasutra.com/blogs/JohnSzczepaniak/20140320/213591/KAKEXUN__the_enduring_legacy_of_Kenji_Eno.php

A bunch of Eno's friends and peers got together to crowdfund a game based on designs he left before he passed away, and it managed to get funded. I believe the person in charge said that he left behind many ideas and design documents for numerous games, so we could see more in the future!

I wanna say that Bob's still working on it. I think he got a deal with Ouya or something.

I can think of one specific moment recently.

The Garrysmod "cough" virus that circulated across all the servers. It would download a dll file into the players addons folder and have the Source engine execute it, hijacking the players Steam chat and in-game functionality.

It would instantly start spamming their friends with "*cough*" and play a cough sound effect in-game.

It was an attempt at stealing Steam wallets, but the coder screwed up and never implemented the feature properly.

It also circulated in a lot of Garrysmod addon repo's in GitHub, until the mod creator finally patched his product.

Well, in the Animal Crossing on Gamecube and maybe Wild World as well, if you played between like 12 an 1 in the morning you'd be wandering around your town and your character would stop in it's tracks. A dialogue box would pop up and say something like "Hey, can I ask a favor of you." But no one would be around. So you'd wander around a little more and it would happen again but say like "No, no, I'm over here..." and eventually a ghost would show up. He was kind of adorable, and a total bro, so it wasn't spooky, but it weirded me out the first time it happened to me.

Pretty sure it's something Team Meat is working on. One of the clips is a Tonetta video, that old dude who makes creepy music videos. One of his songs is called Super Meat Boy.

Also, as more concrete evdence, if you view the source of camdrome.com, there's a spooky ascii picture and a line that says MEATISMEAT over and over again.

We all thought it was a sick joke meant to disrupt the usual flow of games, but unlike the max headroom incident things didn't go back to normal. We're trapped in this nightmare.

That one guy who made D for the playstation.

He made 2 versions of the game, one with family friendly themes that got a E or T rating and one that had like cannibalism and incest or something in graphic detail.

He submitted the family version to the ESRB and then on the day it was going to be pressed for distribution he personally flew to the factory and replaced it with the true version.

>>252913143
>A fucking 30 years plan

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D_(video_game)

>Because the storyline and graphic FMVs were more horrifying than any video game that had yet been released, head developer Kenji Eno resorted to a trick in order to get D published. The game was originally developed with no storyline, and Eno kept the story sequences a secret even from the other members of WARP. When the game was finished, he submitted a "clean" version (i.e. without the violent and disturbing story content of the complete version) for approval. He deliberately submitted the master late, knowing that part of the penalty was that he would have to deliver it by hand to the manufacturers in the USA. While on the plane ride to the USA, he switched the phony "clean" discs with the finalized discs, thus completely bypassing all censorship.[6]

Eno was a fucking boss. A lunatic, but still a boss.

>The game gained controversy when it was discovered that designer Jacques Servin inserted sprites of shirtless "himbos" (male bimbos) in Speedo trunks who hugged and kissed each other, who appear in great numbers on certain dates. Their fluorescent nipples were drawn with a special rendering mode usually reserved for fog-piercing runway landing lights, so they could easily be seen from long distances in bad weather. A bug caused hundreds of himbos to swarm and crowd around the helicopter, where they would be slashed up by the blades, and then need to be air-lifted to the hospital—which earned the player easy money. The easter egg was caught shortly after release and removed from future copies of the game.

>The designer was fired afterwards for adding unauthorized content (which delayed the release of the game, and caused Maxis to miss Christmas season). He cited his actions as a response to the intolerable working conditions he allegedly suffered at Maxis.

>Some months later, a group named RTMark announced its existence and claimed responsibility for the himbos being inserted into the game along with 16 other acts of "creative subversion." Servin stated that he had received a money order of $5,000 from RTMark for the prank.

So Sony told me that they had only manufactured 40,000 units... But then, in the end, they had actually only manufactured only 28,000 units, which is very bad. So the sales people had gotten 100,000 preorders from retailers, but Sony wasn't able to manufacture all of them. I was very pissed about that, because one title like that for a small company is very important. If that game doesn't sell well, then that's very bad for the company

I think he'll save Agatha from mushroomland.

That would explain the pilgrims, but not the appearance of the word in other disappearance related cases.

Because it's a story about how some Russians went camping, got avalanche'd on, got hypothermia and died, and had their soft parts yanked out by scavenging animals.

That's it.

People have jazzed that story up to be about aliums or secret russia super weapons, or bigfoots or whatever, and it's all a bunch of hooie.

>>252921394
Oh really? Then you go the dyatlov pass and camp there, see what happens

I'll probably get eaten by wolves, or a bunch of snow will crush me to death. The world is not magic.

In part of Shin Megami Tensei IV, you're exploring post-nuclear Tokyo, and barely anybody's alive. In some of the old underground shelters, you can still talk to some of the ghosts trapped there by a Mayan suicide deity. Except everytime you talk to one, they greet you with a horrifying, grotesque, and unusually loud "YOU'RE ALIVE" that sounds unlike any other character in the game.

There's also a short time frame where you can rescue kids that are being experimented on. After they exit your view, the game just hangs on the scene for a few seconds, and then you hear this warped, disgusting sound of chewing and swallowing outside.

SMT I and IV really has this spooky, surreal horror element that Nocturne and even II don't have.

Holy crap, this is amazing. I would love to see a MMO based on disasters.

Like a rare plague that has 0,1% of chance of appearing when killing a certain monster, or earthquakes, big monsters invasions, volcanic eruptions or even floods making impossible to go to certain cities over a X amount of time.

MMO these days are all about waifus and not much of a "virtual world".

>>252920380
That video was NIGHTMARISH. What is going on? Is it just meant to be artsy, pretentious shit?

>>252921674
They were pretty NUCLEAR

>>252921674
Nope. That part is pure tomfoolery. None of it is in the original documentation of the accident.

>>252921674
Fun fact: there were people that worked in this fucking thing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayak

>>252921836
I expected that.

>>252921850
And yet no STALKER-like game based on that.
