Llamasoft - Xbox 360 - Oh yes.

Every now and then a Llamasoftie will say something interesting. Honestly! This is where we will keep these topics so that they don't get deleted.

That video show's a very *small* set of effects from Neon and mostly on automatic :) And it's still lovely :) There's lots more to see.

The music is Tundra by Redpoint (Sickboy / Fuse) from the forthcoming Protect and Survive album published on Acro's Hidden Music label. And lovely it is too. Cracking work there :D

Watching the video - HOLY FUCK! 8O 8O 8O

Edit - With regards to the music, it's also a funny co-incidence that I used to be part of a band that sampled that EXACT same Public Information Broadcast, ripped from the old nuclear war movie Threads. It's a small world :lol:

Wow, Fantastic. :D
Only just spotted this, and it's already 15 pages long. 8O

Just think, millions of people, all around the world, will get to see Jeff's work.

Wow, PS3 now seems kind of less important than before. Looks like MS are really going for it, this time. :D

And Revolution ? The "Revolution", is happening alright, only on the Xbox 360 :D

Congratulations, Jeff and Giles, you both deserve it.

It most certainly is. Both of you guys deserve this to happen. :D

I haven't been around here long and don't know Yak and the team that well, but I think it's fantastic that a small team like llamasoft can get the break they deserve (coming from a post-wannabe games programmer who got swallowed up by the buisness programming world). Congratulations!

Does this mean you are going to be handing out 'promotional' XBox 360's at the next RV? :wink:

Agreed, It look very nice indeed. Congrats to K and Rod for the site.

I've found some tutorials on using div instead of table. It all makes a bit more sense now.. It was just that the llamasoft history pages (I was looking at page 6) didn't use table tags, and I was wondering how it worked. Sort of akin to coming across something floating in mid air without any form of support, and trying to determine why :)

Wow, only just spotted this, wow.

Fuck, fuck fuckity fuck.

Congratulations to all involved this is fantastic news, and a great counterpoint to the sad news of the Unity cancellation.

I look forward to reading about all this in the Llamasoft history one day

Now, who rendered that sheepie? Anyone we know?
Rod, some website problems here (microosoft IE 6.00.26, via citrix connection)

- Link to Mac format gives you the Nuon page, should go below
- 8 bit commodore gets you to atari ST
- i kind of think it takes rather longf to produce the background images for the first headline on a page, giving you first white text on white to read, but that might be just me

How the bollocking hell did I miss this thread??!! 8O

Congrats to Jeff, Giles and other furrries involved.

Sorry 'dtj' - the first part of MY DREAM has now become a reality.
Second part? I hoped to see a llamasoft title or 2 as a downloadable on XboxArcade/360.

Fuckit.. I'm grinning like a maniac

:D

yeah you're right, thought that you would read this faster... it looks great though with tohse nice rounded images, some may have complained it lookes corporate, but i think it is professional though it remains fluffy...

and on the neon thing, i'm getting more exited by the minute... seeing myself technoingsaway on this, and can't wait to get home to my thrusty mac and download the movies (if the server hasn''t collapsed by then :))
