Assassin’s Creed II, Splinter Cell and more…

This week is the week of the E3! See the many great announcements by Microsoft, Nintendo and especially Sony here. Some of my personal highlights below:

Assassin’s Creed II

Splinter Cell: Conviction

Too bad it’s a 360 exclusive, which I don’t have. Stupid MS with their bag of money…

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune was a great experience, and this looks to be just as entertaining.

Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time

Boxmeer Parties

This is a promotional video (on TV) for parties in the nearby town of Boxmeer, a year ago. I made it for my father.

Websites and Video updated

As the final move in my portfolio update, I’ve completed the Websites and Videos pages with my latest creations.

4 new games

I’ve added four of my past games to the Games page.

Defend Portugal

A simple online game which I developed as part of the website Portugal.nl. The goal is to defend the harbour of Lisbon from attacking pirates (Yarrr), using your tower which is full of cannons (boom).

Galileo

Galileo is my first big game. It was a school project, and our team consisted of 40 people. It’s a mod for Unreal Tournament 2004

Order of the Fox

You are a member of the Order of the Fox, a secret society aiming to protect and preserve the secret of Magic. Your mission is to save some other members of the order, who have been captured and are in a heavily guarded prison.

Battle for Middle-earth II: Deluxe Edition

The Battle for Middle Earth II: Deluxe Edition was a mod that intended to deepen the gameplay of EA’s Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II and make the game more interesting.

Check them out on the Games page.

The Crisis of Credit

Watch this video explaining how the current economical crisis began, and see how a well-made video can make a boring subject interesting and understandable (just like a good teacher, by the way).

New portfolio and projects pages

As you can see, I’ve done away with the pages “Projects” and “Portfolio” and put their content in three new pages: Games, Websites and Videos, where I’ve applied a new style. By making this stuff more accessible, I can now use this website as a portfolio when applying for an internship or job.

Fiat Panda

Here’s a video I made a loooong time ago, but never actually put up here. It’s a compilation of Fiat Pandas which I shot when on school exchange in Italy (Poppi, to be precise). Along with scooters and tiny pickup trucks, there were a lot of these things around there.

The Machine is Us/ing us

The future of the web. A must see if you’re into that stuff (like me).

What’s in the Box?

This awesome short demo video was made by a Dutch amateur, almost completely by himself. Hollywood almost instantly expressed their interest in him, and for good reason. Check it out.

The video is a test, to see if this concept could be used for a full-length movie. I think it can. What do you think?

Water HDR and coloured

Another photo, which I edited in the same way as the second one in the previous post (meaning I only took one photo).

And today, a special coloured version. What do you think?
