Party Girl: Echo Six's illicit obtainer of information

Sienna ‘Party Girl’ Fowler got her reputation throwing wild parties in her youth for businessmen and officials. Little did they know that every party she threw was also recorded with hidden equipment, which would be sold to the highest bidder. The government hired her after she managed to dupe their top surveillance expert at one of her parties.

As bad as this is going to be, for some reason, I really want to watch it.

The name replacements were a little more work this time but I thought we needed a rebuttal to the The Umbrella Corporation is doomed version.

The vandalized artwork once again belongs to Drv3r and here is a direct link to the original.

I have made available a Hi-Res Jpeg of just the modified HoC image.

Harley: Echo Six's medic

A foul-mouthed ex-biker, Erez ‘Harley’ Morris joined the service to avoid going to jail. Excelling in medicine during operation Desert Storm, Harley unexpectedly became one of the best medics in the field. Always putting other’s lives before his, he will always do his best to make sure no man is left behind.

DeeAy: Echo Six's team leader

Crispin ‘Dee-Ay’ Jettingham has been a soldier for as long as he can remember. He was the government’s top choice to be the leader of the Echo Six team. Always calm and collected, he is a true soldier and is highly skilled and efficient with his weaponry and his orders.

I wasn't planning on including the U.S.S. side for Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City but since I found them and it is content expect to be spammed (even more) with them leading up to REORC's launch date.

Play as the good guys on April 10th

One of the coolest aspects of Operation Raccoon City's multiplayer is its three-sided battlefield. Umbrella Security Service members, who are there to cover up the zombie outbreak, clash with Spec-Ops soldiers sent to get answers and figure out exactly what went down. While those two factions bicker and trade shots, zombies and BOWs wreak havoc all around, targeting anything with a pulse.

Resident Evil: Operation Rebecca Black – FIXED!

So last week I rebuilt the Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City cover with Rebecca Black. Afterward I realized that I should have used the zombified Rebecca so that I could have her buying it in the image.

So like it says in the title, fixed!

Once again a Herd of Cats original.

Interesting discovery
Things that make you go hmmm
Since there already has been chatter about the 720 being released this year.

This weeks XS Cargo flyer has the 250 GB "slim" 360 for $228. So when stuff starts appearing in XS Cargo that usually means one of two things:

1) The manufacturer is clearing them out ASAP
2) They are refurbished, this would usually be indicated on the ad.

However, seeing as how there has never been any consoles for sale at XS Cargo during the life cycle (refurbed or not), this could also be an indicator of what is coming. ie Microsoft is clearing out the old consoles for the new.

That said, I still think it is too soon, perhaps they will announce it E3, build hype for a year then release xmas season 2013?

Yes, I know I posted it here: http://www.herdofcats.ca/node/7543#comment-14409

With a friend

Rolly has been in a March Break Camp all week. Thursday was supposed to be a skating day at Barbara Ann Scott Arena but a friend had called and asked him to come and skate with him instead.

He was a friend so we pulled Rolly out of camp early and headed over to his friend's little rink. It took a while to find but eventually we got there and got ready to go skating.

Found it!

Can't tell you how I know...but I have been shown definite proof that the new xbox 720 is coming shortly. Regardless of what microsoft says. and it's being called the 720 too. That's confirmed now. Based on the materials I've seen, I'd say it going to ship this summer.

I would love to take credit for this scoop, but I was prompted by an HoC member with no job and nothing better to do than troll around looking for info. And it wasn't Troll.

Beltway is the Wolfpack’s explosives expert, allowing him to plant and set devices including fragmentation mines

Okay. So some of the name replacements were obvious and some of them were not.

Some of them may have required the complete suspension of disbelief.

The vandalized artwork belongs to Drv3r and here is a direct link to the original.

I have made available a Hi-Res Jpeg of just the modified HoC image. I personally cropped it into an absolutely stellar desktop background. You can use it for whatever you want. *cough* dartboard *cough*
