trespasser

I don't know the trailer for the game gives you the impression that in It could actually be something incredible, the next generation of 3D gaming, you know what's coming, so I'll say the magic words: how bad could this be now, let's see Windows 95 or 98, Pentium 2 chip 64 megabytes of RAM, oh these games are too advanced for my retro computers. and it's probably shit for my modern computers, let's try it anyway, yeah that's what I'm talking about, look at that arm moving all over the place, glitches in the framerate background, I already feel at home, huh, the game is going messing up, let me adjust the settings, yeah. that's a new one, sorry, I just need to take a look at this for a moment which is amazing when you just start the game and you're looking at this, you know you're in for a treat, it exists. patches and mods that improve the game from being a complete idiot to just mediocre, but I need the authentic experience.

I'm the

angry

video game

nerd

, not the slightly irritated video game geek, in a minute, what's this plane ticket, uh, the tropics, yeah, you know what I am? I could use a vacation, screw this game, ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain talking just an update from the cockpit, we are hoping for a smooth ride, cruising altitude of 35,000 feet, current temperature of 75 degrees, a dinosaur in the Alas, well that was a shitty flight. It's a dinosaur, look, how old is that computer? It's a dinosaur. I'll try to send a distress call. Oh, no luck, but it has the recommended parts needed to run Intrusser and there is a copy of the game.

Well, I guess reviewing the game is necessary. My vacation now, what's up with this weird fine? Please take a few minutes to register your intruder and receive comprehensive customer support and regular information about our products. Automatically enter to win something cool from EA. It could be a free game, a hat, a t-shirt, whatever we can think of. with lucky winners chosen each month judging by the reputation of this game, the only thing EA should offer as an apology for a legacy that continues to this day in 1989 international genetic technologies had achieved their design to genetically recreate dinosaurs the introduction summarizes the films with the familiar voice of Richard Attenborough as John Hammond, the game itself is supposed to be a direct sequel to The Lost World, so technically it is Jurassic Park 3 before Jurassic Park 3, but it also sometimes follows the books, so whatever you play as who gets blocked from the site.

B of all places, man, they just can't stop landing on those dinosaur islands, hmm, good thing is that actress Minnie Driver voices her, you know from Good Will Hunting and uh Goldeneye, wow, what kind of hazardous waste dumped into that water? It's me? even looking closely, let me fix my setup, even with the most optimized computer to run the original version of the game, it still crashes and runs like after what seems like an eternity. I'm finally playing and the background keeps crashing. I know. It is common for resources to disappear in games and it is not the worst, but it still has quite a few errors.

The invader was coated to have realistic physics. The environments are meant to be immersive with plenty of things you can interact with with your long ragdoll noodle arm. It hardly works. Just try to shoot the basketball or try to pick up an object and if you hit something it will drop whatever you are holding look at this. I can't walk five feet without dropping my gun and jumping. Oh God, sometimes it's okay, but other times. Sometimes you get stuck like on this wall that's so short it shouldn't be that hard. I keep falling if I could see my legs.

It's like trying to walk down stairs without looking down. You can look down, but the game designers decide that. It was more important to see the character's boobs Hey, what's up, nerd? Oh, he's that guy who breaks boundaries, how did you know to call me here? I received this mysterious message to call this computer and it asks me to help you understand a little about the intruder from Jurassic Park. Well, that's pretty convenient, but I could actually use a little help breaking the boundaries of this part if we take the camera and we can see that all he has are shoulders, chest and a single long arm, the chest is enlarged to hide the fact that he has no legs from the player's perspective and also behaves like a health meter where his heart tattoo appears to get fuller as he takes damage.

You can see the different stages of the heart hidden under its skin. Here too his legs seem to rotate. cube that rolls like a ball, this could be the reason why you are having trouble jumping to ledges, the collision detection is not that good, so I hope it helps you and I hope it explains a little bit about coding, nerd , thank you. Yes, by the way, while I have it, can you send a rescue party here to get me off this island? There are creepy guys wearing inflatable dinosaur costumes. It looks like they're cutting the signal.

Hey, good luck to you, nerd. I know how to keep track of my health by looking down, but what about ammo? There's no head-up display or meters to show how many shots you have left. Seven, six, five. That's really annoying and unrealistic. Who counts out loud how many bullets they have left? are being attacked by a shambling velociraptor when they realize where it is, John Hammond's voiceover activates. My name is John Pakka Hammond again. The narration is great, but are they playing in his head or does the island have speakers in Bioshock? Find recordings. everywhere on the tape decks here they just play I was born on March 14, 1928, okay here's some trivia, the lost world was cross-promoted with Mercedes, even the VHS tape opened with a Mercedes-Benz commercial, but no it stopped there because the cross-promotion also came to this game, yes, just a random truck with the Mercedes logo right at the beginning of the game, after this we finally get to see for the first time a dinosaur, the Brachiosaurus, like In the movie, who can forget that majestic scene where I first witnessed the dinosaurs, where everyone looks up and wonders, and the game does a good job of bringing back that feeling of awe, the wonder of how they look.

Come, watch them crash into each other, wish it happened in the movie, this game has a puzzle element. also like the first one needs to be a bridge that swings back and forth you just have to wait and then i have to go back and drag a box to stop it from swinging but that doesn't work either so i had to grab another one . box that took a lot longer than expected you know it will be better if the jump worked every time you start a new level you will lose your weapons sometimes you can pick up new ones quickly but they are weaker than the ones you had before each The level is full of dinosaurs like Raptors and red Raptors and yellow Raptors, so many Raptors seriously.

I know Raptors are like one of the main bad guys in Jurassic Park, but couldn't they think of other enemies even when other dinosaurs appear in most of them? Don't mind your business look at this Stegosaurus he won't attack me even if I try to piss him off they attacked in the lost world but here all you do is shoot Raptors or throw Jeeps at them and of course the game is so broken always. The raptors appear, the frame rate goes from 20 frames per second to about 5. It's also hard to tell if they're dead. They just sit with their eyes wide open.

They look more tired than anything else. I know what you're thinking. Do they have a t-rex, yes, they make several and they hardly try to attack you. You can stand under one and it won't mind getting hit by accident, but not enough to die. I keep thinking that every time one shows up, it will take you. to a big boss fight, but every t-rex I've ever encountered is either trying to kill another dinosaur or stumbling around drunk. scratch that each dinosaur walks like they just drank an entire box of rolling rock. These levels are gigantic, by the way, probably some. one of the biggest for a 3D game at the time, that would be nice, but outside of some areas it's mostly just trees and rocks, nothing interesting except maybe for this angry pond, yeah the dinosaurs got angry somewhere , I guess, so why not include that in In the game, there are some Easter eggs you can find, but they're not worth the time, like this beach where the Lost World opening audio plays.

Hey, this is supposed to be the same beach? It does not look like anything. This game is very repetitive so I'm going to focus on the things that stand out, there is a level called the city, it's where the engine staff used to live and work. I think it's the same city in the end of the lost world because this building looks similar, but nothing else in this city even looks like the movie. There is a puzzle at the beginning where you have to enter a key code. There is a word next to the keyboard that says Big Lie written in numbers.

You have to enter the numbers backwards for it to work. Yeah, that's smart, I guess then. I'll jump around different buildings, which is annoying for everyone to collect key cards, but I guess I like John Hammond's big mansion. You can explore it complete with a garden that has rocks arranged like the Big Dipper. Well, that's random, but it's actually a hint to help you. He finds a key card and it seems that Dr. Henry Wu has VHS copies of Buried Helicopters and Zombie Love in his house - they're all fake movies - but the streets are named after famous real-life authors and include a statue of Edgar Rice Burroughs, who wrote Tarzan, so it's something interesting, but not As interesting as this Raptor being stuck in a fence is that it's supposed to be a big pile of Well, I've seen better looking piles right there, that's a big pile of where is it?

It's supposed to be a big pile of Triceratops. feces here ah okay let me check the kitchen if it's ready just a minute chef we don't have a minute the audience is waiting mix the peanut butter with the chocolate syrup omg I can digest and scream a real task, faster you can do that you listen to this chef is that it's it's write it shake it pick it up that's the shittest thing I've ever seen in my life and you have it together can you handle that how is this? yeah, hell, that's not yours, your existence is, you're a worthless bag of worthless put down your jacket and get out of my kitchen, get out, sorry guys, it won't happen again, okay, let's try that again, that's a great stack of the next level, it made me angry and not because I start with another t. -rex ignoring you I arrive at a port with a bunch of containers destined for platform jumping, you take down a trailer and hope it doesn't miss and land in the wrong area Oh, careful, I have a key card, okay?

And now that? maybe there's a door on that ship next to the dock, it's quite far away, but it has to be something important, right, Emiliya was a tugboat to bring in the bigger refrigerators. Ah, just another Easter egg, so I went back and found that this note card is in the Atlantic the Atlantic that's the name of the container it was already in I did the puzzles out of order I got the card too soon here's the best one part, you eventually leave the port and arrive at a lab where you find the office of Dennis and Edgar E.

The big guy from Jurassic Park who causes the computer system to crash turns out Nedra was really into sword and sorcery. She even has a huge medieval metal mace. You will never believe it, but this is the strongest portable weapon in the game, yes, a mace. I was able to punch the Raptors in the face and look next time you talk about the Jurassic Park games, be sure to mention the intruder, which features a raptor with a medieval mace. The biggest mistake Dennis Nedry madewas to leave this incredibly incredible weapon. On the face of it, if he had this on the other island where the original Jurassic Park took place, things might have been different for him, unfortunately like all weapons you can't take them to the next level, but the good thing is that you start with The Lyn Strat BB gun, the one Eddie Carr had in the second movie, can kill dinosaurs instantly, but you only have three shots, so I feel like this should be saved for some big boss battle, except that all the T -Rex from the game they won't give it to me. the time of day, so I'll use some outside sources instead, this level reveals that site B was home to an indigenous race of people mentioned in the novels, you find one of their temples, but surprise, it's booby trapped, wait one minute.

Now it feels like I'm playing Tomb Raider. At the end of the ruins you encounter a giant red Rex who is actually chasing you, finally there is a boss fight. Now he wishes he didn't waste those bullets, the only weapon that perhaps could have killed him. and I screwed up, so I do the best I can. I empty a whole clip into this and he keeps coming, but it's okay, you don't have to kill him, you can just run around this pyramid and let him escape, so maybe he wasn't a boss, just the only hostile T-rex in the entire game , but now I'm at the really difficult part, an old rickety bridge, you have to jump this gap and With the shitty jumps in this game it's more than impossible, no matter where I jump, I fall again and again.

I have no idea what to do, so let's try something I learned a long time ago. Yes, you can just walk on it. Here comes the last level. I like to call it Clumsy Mountain because the dinosaurs can't stop themselves from falling off the cliff, idiots, after a rescue call another Raptor attacks but also falls off a cliff near the end of the level. I looked back and saw more Raptor birds falling. I evolved from dinosaurs, my ass, these can't fly because I made it to the end, all I need to do is jump on some boxes and get picked up by a helicopter, but be careful because there is a final boss in the game, could it be this? huge epic T-rex battle I've been waiting for, no it's just a big Raptor, a big Raptor that kills itself, man this sucks, it should have been this crazy immersive survival experience, but it was just a Tyrannosaurus Rex dog, We have a dog here, I don't see anyone. he cares about shame it's blackly I guess he's responsible for this program eh I'd like to ask him some questions you didn't say the magic word I'd like to ask Seamus blackly some questions please I'm Seamus Seamus blackly his assists in game designer, also father of Xbox, oh right, what he plays breaking the 99 dragons, uh, yeah, what he plays is Drake from the 99 dragons and like Rick Riser, pray, yeah, but also Halo.

I was the executive producer of Intruder before that. I can answer any question you have about the game, so this game had a lot to offer in 98 Half-Life inspired ragdoll physics effects to a surgeon simulator type arm mechanic, but then there are glitchy backgrounds, floating trees and drunk dinosaurs, what happened was this game was actually finished no, this game wasn't actually finished this was a game from a new publisher DreamWorks Interactive they didn't have much experience and I think I was 27 or 28 I didn't know what to do It was young I was stupid and arrogant, so we tried to finish in the allotted time and then were forced to ship a broken game.

I thought it was the end of my career. It was incredibly painful to see how much involvement Spielberg had and what did Richard Attenborough think of the project? Stephen was tremendously involved in the game and very supportive. Richard Attenborough, who everyone called Dickey, was one of the sweetest guys I've ever met, he took us under his wing and made us feel. like we were doing something legitimate, which was pretty novel back then because only recently have video games been seen as some kind of legitimate art in the media back then, everyone still treated you like a punk skater and so when Richard took us seriously It meant a lot to us, so why did you decide on the heart tattoo and the screaming ammo level?

Why not use a normal display screen? The idea was the great feeling that it was your adventure and part of that was not having a ton of Technology in your face and we were struggling with the idea of ​​a totally natural interface where everything in the game was literally in the game world In the context of the game world the tattoo was one of the first ideas we had about a health meter we were in. I thought about putting it on my arm and it turned out to be a chest tattoo when we ran out of time and that's what stayed and that's how stupid things are, why was that super Raptor chosen as the final boss when the game started?

I was already loaded with Raptors, we had no time to create and no budget to create a new dinosaur boss and we were in a hurry to finish and we have a lot of pressure from DreamWorks Interactive, of course all these things are ridiculous now. when you think about them because as we say a late game is only late until it's released but a bad game is bad forever what do you think about the legacy of the game and the fanbase? Have you played or seen any of the mods you know? It was made by a team of people who worked very hard, it did not work and it is very traumatic for them, so for all of them I think the most important thing is to see the love in the community of intruders is very important and very beautiful that I have sometimes .

I've honestly been moved to tears seeing some of the posts and the work people have done. Great thank you very much. You know, I really appreciate doing this, but I just have one last question. Could you send someone to get me off this island? Because? Would you do something like that? I'm the one who left you stranded here on my private island. Sorry, I took drastic measures to get you here and it wasn't easy. Have you ever thrown a guy in a tarragon suit onto a charter plane with a catapult it's harder than it looks well no that's just let me get off your shit island.

I'm sick of playing your shitty game. That's exactly why I've trapped you here. I'm the second idiot among critics like you talking about the game we work on. Very tough, so I've been taunting and then stranding Conquer viewers like you here on my island and then mentally breaking them into loving the intruders, ha ha. I might choose an inflatable costume just for you and the other questions. nerd, yeah, how about a fight with the head of property recs? You have to fight a T-rex. Well, here you have a T-Rex, which is the best you can do.

I mean these little shots for the budget, oh but look what the T-Rex is holding. Ned mace trees, well that sucks to me, but it's not that bad, no idiot, check his other hand, the Duke, holy Sheamus, you gotta call it off, ah, you didn't say the magic word, man, oh, geez, eh, a new 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA SUV that is the perfect vehicle to escape from a t-rex ah, get in, it must go faster, let's go faster yes we lost them hey thanks for picking me up strange I didn't understand your name I'm Seamus Seamus Blackly
