Widescreen Games, that “familiar” character had best be Juan Sanchez Villa-Lobos Ramirez, or you may as well just pack up and go home.No Kurgan in Highlander, confirms Widescreen [VG247]”WETA, the special effects team behind the Lord of the Rings Trilogy and District 9, have given Team Fortress 2 developers Valve a very special gift: a replica Concord 0311511 Ladie's watch sentry gun. That works.OK, so it doesn't shoot bullets, but it is life-size, does move, does track your motion and follows you, and does play authentic sound effects from the game.It's now sitting in the entrance to Valve's headquarters.
What's just as interesting, though, is why the gun is there; Valve say the gift was the result of a request, made “a few months ago we got a chance to visit Weta Workshop”.Why would Valve be flying down to New Zealand to visit Weta?”Believe me, replica Concord 0311529 Ladie's watch after this week, I've done so much thinking about gifts I could make the case I'm exempt from buying them. My father is, traditionally, impossible to shop for. He's the most well-read man I know, so books are beyond cliché as a gift. Mom's not much easier.
She's a horsewoman, which would seem to be an interest with all sorts of easily identifiable gift options. But those who keep a barn are usually the only ones who know what's really useful in it. The last thing I'd want to get her is the dressage equivalent replica Concord 0311614 Ladie's watch of a Salad Shooter. Or a pasta maker, which my brother and I were ambitious enough to give one year. I think it ended up at the Habitat For Humanity Store.As for Fletch, he's never any help, either.
