A Vampire Western Game?
Ubisoft has apparently reached an exclusive agreement with High Moon Studios to release Darkwatch, a story driven game that blends Wild West action with vampires. Who thinks up this stuff?
In the game, players step into the role of Jericho Cross, an outlaw seeking to rob a train. When he does so, he unleashes an ancient vampire Lord who bite him and then sends out a pulse wave of evil over the American West. (What, exactly, is a pulse wave of evil?) Corpses come alive and undead armies run rampant—Gasp! Jericho now has to save the West. Hmmm, I didn’t see that coming.
It’s billed as the “First-ever Vampire Western game.” You have to wonder why there was never one made before, perhaps because no one wanted one… I guess we’ll find out. If you are interested in more info, you can go to the official Darkwatch website.
Dracula Land
This is an interesting article about Transylvania. It’s short, but gives a quick history of Stoker and the vampire myth he created. Interestingly, Stoker never even visited the country!
The Vampire's Daughter is up and running!
That's right, The Vampire's Daughter has begun posting again. Gregg, the author, is going to be posting on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The first post was yesterday. YEAH! Check this free blog story out, it's good stuff.
