GAMESSHOW THE WORLD WHO THE GAMER GEEK IS

1.

Breakout, a discrete logic (non-microprocessor) game, was designed by Nolan Bushnell, Y, and Steve Bristow, all three who were involved with Atari subsidiary Kee Games.

They had an idea to turn Pong into a single player game, where the player would use a ball to deplete a wall of bricks without missing the ball on its rebound. Bushnell was certain the game would be popular, and the two partnered to produce a concept. Al Alcorn was assigned as the project manager, and began development with Cyan Engineering in 1975. The same year, Alcorn assigned X to design a prototype. X was offered US$750, with a bonus for every chip fewer than 50. X promised to complete a prototype within four days.

X and Y were partners and worked for HP. X wasn’t much knowledgeable about chips but Y was and it was his brilliance Atari wanted to employ.

However X and Y are not famous as Game Developers.

Most of the game is set in a remote desert area of New Mexico in the Black Mesa Research Facility, a fictional complex that bears many similarities to both the Los Alamos National Laboratory and Area 51, at some point between the 2000s. The game's protagonist is the theoretical physicist Gordon Freeman, an MIT graduate who holds a Ph.D. Freeman becomes one of the survivors of an experiment at Black Mesa that goes horribly wrong, when an unexpected "resonance cascade"—a fictitious phenomenon —rips dimensional seams, devastating the facility. Aliens from another dimension known as Xen subsequently enter the facility through these dimensional seams (an event known as the "Black Mesa incident").

HARRY POTTEREXQUISITE QUIZZING EXPERIENCE

1.

The Knights of Walpurgis were founded around one thousand years ago to protect witches and wizards from persecution. However, after a while Wizarding society managed to convince everyone that magic does not exist, and the services of the Knights were no longer required.

The Etymology of the names comes from a German festival.

“Walpurgis Night (in German folklore) the night of April 30 (May Day's eve), when witches meet on the Brocken mountain and hold revels with the Devil...”

This origin is not coincidental and is somewhat of a obscure connection to the ideology of the Knights to ideology of Hitler’s Germany. The knights were defeated in 1945(Second vague connection to Hitler’s defeat) and went into hiding when their leader was defeated.

How do we better know them?

DEATH EATERS

2.

In 2003, at the age of eleven, Evanna had been admitted to the hospital, where she spent two years in treatment for anorexia. She often wrote to Harry Potter author J. K. Rowling, of whom she was a fan and whom she considered a counselor, and got a reply in which Rowling reminded her that anorexia was "destructive, not creative“. Still, she feared that she would miss the release of the fifth Harry Potter book, but the hospital released her for the morning of the book release, and it was arranged for her to receive a copy of the book signed by J.K. Rowling herself.

“The only actor or actress who has ever, ever intruded while writing was Evanna Lynch, who is absolutely perfect as X. And I must admit I have heard her voice in my head when I wrote the book. I love Evanna. She's fantastic. She was perfectly cast, she was… she won't mind me saying this, she is completely cool with this, she is X! She is very X-esque, in personality, and is just spot on for me”

Before clinching the role, Evanna wrote to J.K. Rowling telling her that she wanted to be X but she came from a sleepy place called Termonfeckin where nothing ever happened. Rowling wrote back encouraging her and told her not to be too disheartened that she herself came from a very sleepy place.

The setting is distinctly futuristic and technological, instances of mythology and supernatural events do occur. Mythologies, like Valhalla, and even supernatural forces, such as demonic enemies, make regular appearances, yet do not seem to stand out amongst the technologically advanced inhabitants

Darkness was completely destroyed except a small fragment which falls to Earth to wipe out the dinosaurs. The story has not had a conclusion yet.”
