It's good to know there still are people making video games from a different perspective, specially in these creatively difficult times. Of course, it's also comforting to know that there's someone who justly points the spotlight towards the right projects and creators.

I do know about The Third Force: it wasn't mentioned, however, because it wasn't created by Shono and the article had a great deal of contents to deal with as it was. But I planned on talking about it sometime in the future, perhaps here in this very blog. Indeed I had used a reference to it in the past when I signaled some influences Gadget had in Half-Life 2.<br /><br />I got a lot of materials concerning Underworld from Haruhiko Shono. Unfortunately I was not allowed to publish them. Still I'd be interested in seeing those trailers you speak of since they might be different from the materials I gathered. Please contact me via e-mail to dieubussy@gmail.com.<br /><br />Again, thank you for taking the time to read.Dieubussyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05075900612337102151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-936168266428065664.post-35958637548630507782009-12-08T23:33:46.866+00:002009-12-08T23:33:46.866+00:00I stumbled upon your interview, and this blog afte...I stumbled upon your interview, and this blog after doing my "every-so-often" Google search of Shono's name to see what he was up to. Your interview was amazing and it did my heart good to find another fan of Shono's work. I loved L-Zone and Gadget,( could never find a copy of Alice) and was lucky enough to get my hands on a copy of the Past as Future re-release straight from Synergy in Japan. A woman that worked there was kind enough to translate the installation instructions to English for me... I loved that game! (still have it sitting on my shelf). I also got a copy of the books, which I still have in pristine condition today. I might have missed it, but did you mention the novel "The Third Force: A Novel of Gadget" written by Marc Laidlaw in '96? ( Marc was a game designer at Valve, and obviously a fan of Shono). Great novel, worth tracking down. I was most curious to hear what he had to say about the UNDERWORLD project. I was closely following its development.. then "poof" its gone and all traces of the project disappear. I still have several "trailers" done for the game and they hint at an amazing story and classic Shono cinematography. I did not see any mention of it in your interview with him, but I did see the blurb off to the side you wrote about it. Did he give you any other information about Underworld? Anyway.. great job on the article, the interview and the presentation. No doubt you put a ton of effort and time into it... and this "old gamer" for one really appreciated it. <br />--Slakemoth--Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-936168266428065664.post-36502796201276641592009-11-09T20:27:03.954+00:002009-11-09T20:27:03.954+00:00It sounds like an interesting read but we're g...It sounds like an interesting read but we're going to need an English translation version to see for ourselves.TheShendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06131213509605211221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-936168266428065664.post-28911672061904727772009-11-05T12:15:02.694+00:002009-11-05T12:15:02.694+00:00I'm speechless - I can't believe someone t...I'm speechless - I can't believe someone thought about making an article about Shono.

They were exported in MP4 format and I use Vimeo because of its decent compression onto web format - unlike most video uploading sites I've used. They run exactly in the same size and resolution as the games (640x480px).<br /><br />As for Alice, I hear it's being sold at Amazon at the moment. The packaging is quite exquisite, I'm told, and it resembles the boxing of old LP records. The only problem is that you can't seem to get it for under 1700$.
