What?

Oh, that.

I’m doing nothing again…. That’ll have to be fixed.

I’m selling some things on ebay so I can make an investment in Foolage’s future [Crossing the Line particularly]

A sneak peek:

Also, further off into the distance, something…. Familiar… Similar? Approaches… All I will say is this: The history is a mystOry, but soon that mystOry will be history.

As for updates, all in good time. Numero Trés approaches. Au revoir.

Was assigned to rescue his new recruit who had just been kidnapped, whilst the rest of his outpost are assumed dead.

No such thing on record has occured, therefore the investigation, after 3 years of searching for the Captain, was closed. END OF ARCHIVE..>

Something Awesome this Way Comes

Firstly, Happy New Year.

So, Episode 2? No. Infact, there was never an episode 1. The first released episode was In fact was the introduction scene to something much bigger. After my pc was wiped, I had a thought. Now I have to start episode 2 afresh, I may aswell do something much more exciting.

Episodes 1,2,3,4, and 5 [The 'prologue' episodes] are no more. They are being merged into a feature length movie, in order to separate the prologue from the actual episodes. It is expected to be about half an hour long, and a remarkably epic prologue to our greatest project, Crossing The Line.

It’s name? All in good time…

However, Since I realise this will take a very long time [for me at least] to make, The first actual episode, set in the present, will be released first.

It’s be hard to say when, but the first episode will definitely be released in the first quarter of the year. And you’ll be watching wondering what happened in the prologue to make this come to be.

I’ll leave with one last thing. The theme tune. For Crossing the Line. It is an exert from a guitar cover of the Metal Gear Solid 2 theme tune, and I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.

Oh Snap

It’s Christmas Eve, and I randomly decided id like to Merge the free space on my hard drive with the Main Partition. SO I hit Merge, turn the screen off to save power, play a round of Kameo for the 360 [don't ask] go back to see if it’s done, and…

Format Complete of C:/

…

0_0 Oh dear…

…

Yeah, it’s all gone. So Ima gunna install Vista 64 Bit [Heard it's better] on my [ugh] *new* hard drive.

That means you may be waiting a while for Episode 2 or any site updates [Sorry]! But when Ep2 does come, it’ll be in Sexy Widescreen and more professional.

I hope.

Also, Merry Christmas.

Captain, about the New Layout…

foolage — Sun, 14 Dec 2008 19:15:49 +0000

Note: Firefox is the best browser for displaying Foolage V2 in all it’s glory. Visit our homepage for more info.

It’s here folks. Here to stay. I know you perhaps do not share the same enthusiasm as me for just a new layout, however, it is much more than that.

Completely new look – Every page looks completely different, even the error page has been redesigned. The homepage is now a gorgeous looking gateway to the rest of the site. (If you can’t see the buttons, you need Firefox)

New News Section – Now I can easily update Foolage, even from my iPod, expect to be hearing from me a LOT more frequently. A lot you say? Can you say ‘at least once a week’

Machinima, Comics, Gaming & About – These sections have been cleaned up, expanded upon, right aligned, as well as adding a re-appearance of the ‘blades’ from the original site. Also a new comic is coming this week along with a New Episode of Crossing the Line the start the new year… Or end this one… There will be more reviews in the Gaming Section, along with Foolage.com’s own Xbox Live Podcast! :0

New Forum – Talk about anything and everything related to Foolage (or not!) on the sexy new spammer-proof forums with the Foolage Community.

So, let’s clarify. You’ve got a new, gorgeous layout, my patriotism for firefox (If some parts of the site don’t appear right, don’t say I didn’t warn you!), a new forum, and new content on the way such as a gaming podcast, more reviews, Cross This #2, and Crossing the Line Episode 2 shortly thereafter. And of course the top secret projects that only I know.

But what it all boils down to is you. I really mean it. If you like what you see so far, recommend it to your friends, and that inspires me to make more. I’ll be honest, I was lazy with the old site because nobody really cared. But just to have the thought that I am making one stranger smile is enough to make me continue on. (Woah cheesy I know) And please join the forum. Forums are one of the main building blocks for a community, and somehow a well-made and moderated forum gets through to people. I enjoy making Crossing the Line, as it’s one of the main pieces of evidence that we exist, and I will continue to make them, until the inevitable end of Planet Foolage. (The Planet CTL is based on)

One year ago I set out with a mission. It has took me a full year, but I think we are on our way to fulfulling that mission. We start again, today. And we continue, forever.
