  1. The "Sabotage" refers mostly to the fact that one of their ex-staff members, "EvilPanda", gave them several Backgrounds for Act 1, but he hadn't actually gotten the express permission of the respective artists, which resulted in many complaints from the latter. When confronted, EvilPanda said that he was actually trying to spoil their game and that he works for a different project/blogger.

    The game as it is works fine, except for some glitchy-ness in the final scenes(unrelated to the above).

    By the way, there is already a topic concerning this game over here: http://www.canterlot.com/topic/11840-welcome-to-ponyville-fim-fan-game/

  2. Full playthrough of Act 1. Not much to say, the game's plot is really stiff at the moment such as

    when you meet Spike for the first time, I wanted to make him leave and stick with Rarity, but even though the game presents you with 3 choices they all lead to the same conclusion.

    I would like this game more if it had more branching paths.

    EDIT: Also, the final few scenes are buggy and prone to fail loading things, resulting in an eventual crash.

  3. New sypnosis for the crystal empire episodes.

    In Adventures in the Crystal Empire, a magical empire has suddenly appeared in the arctic north of Equestria, and PRINCESS CELESTIA needs TWILIGHT SPARKLE and her friends to find a way to protect it. While her friends try to keep the Crystal Ponies occupied at the Crystal Faire, TWILIGHT SPARKLE searches for the hidden Crystal Heart that is the key to keeping their empire safe from harm! - Shout Factory Press Release

    So many theories destroyed! :mad: And so little answered, too!

    Where does Cadence fit in all of this?! Her Cutie Mark is a crystal heart! She's on the cover! :evil: I WANT ANSWERS!

    Eye reflections =/ Eye shape

    It'd make more sense for Cadence to be the one with the "crystal" eyes anyway!

    Speaking of the weird crystal eyes, I watched the MLP movie recently, and I think one of them had the crystal eyes (Because the quality of my vid is rather excessively low), she had a green coat with dark green highlights in her mane. What was with those crystal ponies anyway? From what I gathered there is virtually no difference between them and average ponies besides the eyes. Hopefully G4 will address this.

    As for the movie itself, it...um...it was...

    ...it was.

  5. Beat Death in Castlevania, the original. Death is near impossible to defeat, but with the right tractics, even Death is being beaten. I just beaten him for the first time, and it felt awesome. Took me about a hour or two.

    The thing that makes Death so tough in the original is the fact that to "get" to him, you had to go through a hallway with 2 knight armor with a medusa generator. Everything kills you in 4 hits (Well, almost everything).

    So basically, once you got to Death, you had to figure out his strategy to beat him, like all the other bosses, but his was considerably harder to abuse due to the fact it involved him moving around while his scythes appeared out of nowhere and followed you quite accurately.

    The real pincher though is that LOSING to him sent you to the start of stage 15, which meant having to go through that hallway again just to get another chance at him. And probably losing again. Game over? Back to stage 13!

    If losing to Dracula forced you to do stage 17/16 again, I'm sure he'd be considered just as "tough" as Death.

    Case in point: Ninja Gaiden 1 NES. The final bosses are actually beatable with enough practice, but losing to them ONCE forces you back to 6-1, which means having to go through the nightmare that is 6-2 again.

    Oh, uh, impossible challenge, um...

    Beat Nethack without any outside assistance (Guides/Walkthroughs/Friends). The amount of knowledge required to have a chance to beat this game makes this challenge nigh-impossible.

  6. Upcoming DVD cover incoming:

    I suppose we can expect at least a two-parter in the Crystal Empire, eh?

    Note :smug:, :blah:, :blush: and :eek: 's eye reflections, they're hexagonal instead of the usual simple circles (see ;-) and :D ). Possible upcoming plot point?

    Then again, the quality of these covers have been less than...adequate compared to the actual show, so it's probably just an animation fail. :P

    Cadence looks different too. compare the differences:

  7. Derpy's Story, an adventure game with very simple controls that tests your video game caring/cruelty potential. Simply use the mouse/bubbles to guide Derpy around the Everfree Forest.

    Unfortunately, game lag can tremendously screw up the control, and Derpy seems unresponsive at times, not moving to the bubbles as she should. Whether this was on purpose or not is yet to be of my knowledge.

    Still, this is a neat experience and I do recommend anyone to try it.

    As of right now, it seems only 6% of players managed to finish the game. Are you one of them? :smug:

  8. So wait, are Pegasus Unicorns royal because they have wings and a horn, or have wings and a horn because they're royal?

    It is complete coincidence that they are like so: as soon as one is introduced as a non-royal, the term will become obsolete, to which I propose this alternate name: Ultima Caballio.
