Absolutely!
You've surely downloaded Still Alive? If not,

Icarus, I'm not very familiar with Rock Band (apart from the concept of course!) but that looks very cool! Nice one! Is Rorschie the lead singer?

How odd...
Even though the blood isn't there, I can't avoid speculating, when the badge is connected to anything military, that this isn't merely a coincidence...
By all means it makes an effective cover, but Watchmen-influenced or stolen?
I mean, we all know where the connection came from...
ekk - call me watchmen-obsessed but i can't look at that poster and see it as independent...

DICE (Digital Illusions) are behind the arcadey Battlefield series and must have known about the Blake connection and incongrous mix of über-violence and hippy ideals that that badge represents when used as a frag grenade ring-pull..

BTW, the latest game involves a group of mercenaries. Soldiers obviously outside of the laws of war.

That's a relief - I thought for a while there that I had gone completely nuts....

Nope. C'mon, he's ill-tempered, violent, and one of the most popular characters in Watchmen... he's obviously a lead guitarist.


(Dr. M was the lead singer at the time of the photo, but he's since been replaced with Ozymandias.)

hehe, my story would be that eddie was once in the band but got too big and wanted out. Ozy being the control freak and so call leader of the band coz he's the smartest had to put a stop to Eddie by means of throwing him out of the band and just threw him out of the window. :P

Rorschach: Hurm. Got a fever. Possible prescription is more cowbell. Must investigate further.

ooh, just to add on, are any of guys here getting Metal Gear Solid 4 for the PS3? If you guys haven't heard or played this game before, just stop whatever your doing now and get to know it!

If Watchmen is equivalent to the the best comic book in the world, than you'd imagine what Metal Gear is to the gaming industry.

One of the best boss fights in the game series was in Metal gear solid for PS one. The boss is a psychic, who basicaly knows all your moves beforehand and making it hard to attack him. You know to overcome it? You had to pause the game, switch your current controller from port 1 to port 2, and resume the game! Only then the boss can't foresee your moves to defeat him.


Love this game so much! Would appreciate if members here are also fan of the game. :D

1) Neverwinter Nights 2

2) Secret of Mana (that's right... I went there...)

3) Seiken Densetsu 3 (AKA Secret of Mana 2 - never got released here in the States because that's around when Nintendo had a falling out w/ Square. Also right around Square massive success w/ Sony Playstation and Final Fantasy 7)

4) Folklore


I was playing Assassin's Creed, but it got so damn repetitive - there's only so many times you save peasants jump from the same damn building before it get's tired.

Yeah. I felt the same way and gave up too.

Now I just alternate between GTA 4 and Rock Band.
