Trials HD Easter Eggs may add up to something more

The following comes from a contributor who wishes to be simply known as Fatshady. Big thanks to Fatshady and the rest of the Trials HD community for all their hard work!

Every time I meet someone who has played or even heard of Trials HD, I mention the “Trials HD Riddle”. The entire story about it I find totally fascinating, largely due tot he fact that the riddle has remained so well hidden. If you have ever played Trials HD, ask yourself this: Did you know that there were 18 unique Easter Eggs hidden within the tracks? Did you know these all connect to form a riddle that has remained unsolved for over two years? You didn’t? Well read on my friend, you are in for an eye-opening experience.

When I reflect on just about any other game that has a large player base and numerous Easter Eggs, there are countless wiki’s, YouTube videos and walkthroughs on most websites. Trials HD was played by over two million people yet the smallest percentage of them even know that there are secrets hidden amongst the tracks. What is even more astounding is that an even smaller percentage know that all of these combine to form one of the most elusive riddles found within a video game. With the upcoming sequel, Trials Evolution due to be released on April 18, I thought it was appropriate to share this riddle story one final time to ensure that one of the most fascinating aspects of 2009′s ‘Best Overall Game’ is not forgotten about.

Most people simply don’t believe that these clues have remained hidden for so long. I find that it is much easier to show them all so here is a recap of what we have found to date. To bring you up to date with the investigations, let me now go through these one by one and explain what we believe they are. This is a summary of the nearly 50 pages over at the official RedLynx forums regarding the riddle. Read it here

Deadlight trailer shows us gameplay to save ourselves

Deadlight‘s gameplay is a combination of 2D platforming with some action elements and survival horror elements. But in this new trailer, we see all the environments a post-apocalyptic 1986 Vancouver has to offer and how much of it is in decaying ruins with zombified creatures. It’s less about taking zombies head-on but evading and setting traps when necessary, where guns act more like tools rather than weapons. Tequila Works will be showing the game off at PAX East this weekend and we can’t wait to get our hands on it.

Trials Evolution will feature and brand new editor allowing you to build anything from new tracks to brand new games. This editor will be much more in-depth than the one found in Trials HD, so even experienced players have a lot to learn about making new tracks. Thankfully RedLynx has begun a massive 32-part series that will teach the ins and outs of the new editor before the game is released. Host Combat Shotgun gives great narration while showing a great video tutorial of the editor, in-depth to the point of showing how the controller should be used. Two episodes have been released so far, with many more to come in the following weeks. Click the jump to learn more about the basics of editing, plus spline points and check points.

If you’re a fan of comic books or pinball, then you probably already know about the huge success that Zen Studios and Marvel have had together. In their upcoming DLC table pack, Avengers Chronicles, we finally get a table dedicated to the Jade Giant himself, Hulk. Although this isn’t just any iteration of Hulk, this is World War Hulk. In this story line Hulk has just gotten back to earth from an involuntary trip to space and he is mad and out for revenge. Stopping at nothing, Hulk took on heroes and villains alike to achieve the justice he felt was owed. In this new trailer we get a chance to see that Zen Studios will be holding nothing back, as they deliver this hectic adventure as only their digital pinball table can.

Rebuilding the game from the ground up, Robomodo is attempting to deliver the experience that technology hindered so many years ago and thanks to Actinidia Pictures, we finally get a glimpse of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD in action.

RedLynx walks us through Dark City Run in Trials Evolution

By
Perry Jackson
– April 4, 2012Posted in: Media, News, Videos

The anticipation for Trials Evolution is insane but it’s only two more weeks until you get your hands on it. Leading up to the weeks, RedLynx has been kind enough to send a video our way of one of the Extreme levels, Dark City Run. The level designer on Dark City Run walks us through the level and what kind of changes have been put in place since Trials HD. The dark, gritty style is said to resemble Sin City with shades of red around a black and white landscape. The level itself looks even trickier, with appropriate loops to be made and moving cars on the street. Don’t forget about the power lines being down. One other cool tidbit is RedLynx will be posting Editor Tutorial Videos today, with up to 30 planned videos. We’ll be posting them as well up until launch so be sure to mark April 18 off your calendar, it’s going to be a bumpy ride.

Harmonix bringing Rock Band Blitz to XBLA

By
Perry Jackson
– April 3, 2012Posted in: Media, News, Videos

Long talked about but remained in mystery, Harmonix announced they’d be working on a title for XBLA. On X-Play, they finally revealed what they’re working for on our downloadable marketplace and it’s a Rock Band game but not exactly what you think. Rock Band Blitz is a fast, frenetic version that almost resembles Harmonix younger days in rhythm games similar to Amplitude. The best part about it is all the songs you’ve downloaded for the previous Rock Band games work within the new title, regardless of from the first or third game, and also coming with an additional 25 songs in the game. It’s due out this summer and will be shown at PAX East this year and you better believe XBLA Fans will be getting down with the sickness.
