Someone on the Steam forums with a SDK (Software Development Kit) of Alien Swarm found something rather interesting. A property suspiciously labeled "Hint" has a value of "Ep3 Blob Spit Position." A closer look reveals some intriguing details.



Full picture.

I for one, am still ticked about Episode 3 getting no mention at E3 and that "Freeman" poster/cover art being a hoax. This however, gives me some hope. Why make a big announcement when you get free press from fans finding an awesome easter egg and letting the internet buzz like an army of bees playing kazoos?

Alternatively, it could just be gibberish or Valve is just fucking with us, in which case I'm going to throw my laptop into deep space in a fit of rage.

Forum thread where the discovery was made.

I have a new Cracked article. You should read it, if you're a cool person. All the cool people are reading this article.

Link.

Digg it.

As a bonus, here are some of the entries that didn't make the final cut:

Yes, I'm a shameless whore. Still, I feel that any album covers with evil penises, crucifixions, and piss-poor photoshops are worth a look, and I hope you feel the same way.

Here is the best album cover of the decade, for comparison:



Fuck. Yes.

EDIT: Before I said that the site had made a mistake with the layout, but it is now fixed.

Just thought this was interesting.





Thanks goes to super-duper Cracked writer Dan Seitz for noticing this similarity over here.

Side-by-side comparison.

Since this is a gaming blog, I might as well say this about MP3: the fight against the boss who has the morph ball boost thing is cheap as hell. Other than that, it was a good game.

It's called: "U2’s 'Elevation' Video, Dissected." I strip down and analyze all the retarded aspects of what I consider to be the most bafflingly retarded music video of the last ten years.


Imagine this but with Laura Croft and an evil clone of the band floating about. Then multiply everything that was retarded in that last sentence times a bajilion.

I've also submitted an article on the worst album covers of the decade, so I'l be sure to post that when it comes up.

Also, if you're wondering why I'm not posting this article here, it's because I get paid one dollar per article, and two dollars for every thousand views. In short, the number of people who read this article determines how much I get paid. So go on to every computer you find and access this article, or I will kill you.


You better hope I don't find bullets that I can actually use.

The 5 Circles of Baffling Webcomic Hell. Read it. Digg it. Enjoy it. The number of insane webcomics is mind-boggling.

Research done by me, actual writing done by the great David Wong.

I might do some blog posts about the webcomics that were so bad, they couldn't be put on the list. On another note, I'm going to pour bleach into my eyes.

Did I mention I got paid $50 for this article? Shit yeah. It's gonna rain.
