Subject: Reverse Mail Sack 2.0

Walk through the door backwards and enjoy the turnabout.

The Reverse Mail Sack is live.

Drinking from the fire hose was its own challenge this week, so I am giving you an art puzzle to solve. It's time for all of you to emulate game designers.

One of the questions you answered related to great movies that would make great games. Show me. Choose one of the selections that made the cut in the article. Produce a screen shot from your game. Link the image here. Do not use the image provided in the Sack. Make creative decisions about the format of your game (i.e. FPS, MMO, RPG, side-scroller, et al) and imagine a graphical user interface. What are the objectives? What tools come into play? What's the threat?

We'll sort it out and concoct a way to pick a winner on Monday.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

Can't wait to dig in.

My future is certain, I will one day fly away. All because I am saved from the penalty of sin. I know he lives.

Yeah, I finally made it into a mial-sack. How many are we up do by now, 21, 22? But this was a reverse one, so does that really count? I'm going to say yes, because it is a Friday and I wan't to have a great rest of the day.

Don't agree, well tuff. And besides I beat you all if after this post you read it, and i don't log back on.

HA HA HA!!!

*Edit:
Before i lose, wanted to wish everyone a Happy Friday, and hope you all have a great weekend. All you employees at Bungie, take the rest of the day off, tell them I told you to.

I noticed there was no section for the MC question. I know only a few of us answered it, I think I may have dropped the ball on that question. Was Master of Ceremonies the category or was it 5 things that could stand for MC? (what I did)

Yay, got my response chosen again!

As for the contest, that looks like way too much work for me.

You imply a level of control over Halo: Reach matchmaking that we no longer have. Or, in your vernacular, it isn't our shiznit anymore.

That had to be one of my favorite Mail Sacks yet. This community is awesome.

Deej can you clear something up please. Do we use a screenshot from the movie and add our own elements (Interface, other stuff, etc...) or do we make the "game screenshot" from scratch?

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

Forgot I even posted in the other thread, so it was quite the surprise seeing me post in that thread in this Reverse Mail Sack. Good read, by the way. What Matthew said about Halo 3 helped change his life was very moving.
