Russian Movies Weekend #23

Leave a comment

War.. war never changes. May 8/9 is a Victory Day, you obviously know it. That’s why today’s Russian Movies Weekend is devoted to the largest war in humanity’s history.

The first movie is relatively old, it’s from 1985 and it’s one of the hardest flicks I ever watched. But it’s the movie every person should watch to the end. Just come and see.

The second one is a modern one, only 5 years old – and it tries to show the war from the woman’s point of view – and via the rifle’s scope. And it’s based on a true story.

Game Description
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was one of the leading blockbusters of 2009. We suggest you re-go through the epic campaign from this game, recreated in high definition. The campaign begins immediately after the dramatic events of the revolutionary game Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, which has won worldwide recognition. The exciting and dynamic plot of Modern Warfare 2 is dedicated to repelling a new threat that has put the world on the brink of disaster.

The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 campaign received improved textures, animations, a realistic physical model, an expanded dynamic range of lighting and a number of other new generation technologies.

Game Description
Portal is a single player game from Valve. Set in the mysterious Aperture Science Laboratories, Portal has been called one of the most innovative new games on the horizon and will offer gamers hours of unique gameplay.

The game is designed to change the way players approach, manipulate, and surmise the possibilities in a given environment; similar to how Half-Life® 2’s Gravity Gun innovated new ways to leverage an object in any given situation.

Portal 2 draws from the award-winning formula of innovative gameplay, story, and music that earned the original Portal over 70 industry accolades and created a cult following.

The single-player portion of Portal 2 introduces a cast of dynamic new characters, a host of fresh puzzle elements, and a much larger set of devious test chambers. Players will explore never-before-seen areas of the Aperture Science Labs and be reunited with GLaDOS, the occasionally murderous computer companion who guided them through the original game.

Portal Stories: Mel is a community made, free modification for Portal 2 based in the Portal universe.

It tells the story of Mel, who meets a new personality core and faces an undiscovered threat to the Aperture facility.

Aperture Tag: The Paint Gun Testing Initiative is a community-made mod for Portal 2, inspired by TAG! The Power of Paint. The familiar Portal 2 gels are now contained within the Aperture Science Paint Gun Device and it’s your job to test it out!

Featuring a new personality-core and an original story with 27 polished levels; the mod offers an exciting and fun experience in varied and interesting new locations throughout Aperture Science.

Thinking with Time Machine is a Portal 2 mod in which you will find and use a Time Machine to create a twin of yourself from the past to help you solve the puzzles. The past self accurately repeats all of the player’s actions, creating a unique twist on familiar Portal game mechanics.

Portal 2 Sixense Perceptual Pack is a free stand-alone game, developed with the Intel Perceptual Computing SDK, custom-designed for exclusive use with the Creative Senz3D depth and gesture camera, which is required to play this title.

Portal Stories: VR is a brand new mini story set in the Portal Universe. It features 10 brand new puzzles, specifically designed to work using the 360 degrees room scale that SteamVR offers. Inside Aperture, you’ll be able to use the new “Aperture Science Instant Teleportation Device” and the “Aperture Science Apparatus Retrieval Tool” to solve the new tests.

Powered by Unreal Engine 4, Portal Stories: VR gives the Aperture Science facility a whole fresh look. With new models, textures, particles and more!

An HTC Vive Headset is required in order to play.

The Final Hours of Portal 2 takes you deep within the top-secret offices of Valve for an unvarnished look at the creative process behind the new video game Portal 2. Journalist Geoff Keighley was granted unprecedented “fly on the wall” access to Valve to create this staggering 15,000 word multimedia experience. From the hush-hush Portal prequel that was shelved to the last minute scramble to complete the game’s story, The Final Hours of Portal 2 is a gripping and dramatic story brought to life by exclusive photos, videos, interviews, interactive experiences, and other surprises.

Selective Download

You may skip downloading and installing of the following content: co-op/advertising videos for Portal 2, four additional voiceovers for Portal and Portal 2, Portal Stories: VR, Portal 2: The Final Hours and Portal 2: Sixense Perceptual Pack

Game Description
What would you do if your daughter never came home but you could track her down?

It’s not the first time she ran away. But you’re uneasy … this time feels so different. Long ago, you swore never to return here. And now, she has dragged you back. Your search leads deep into ancient Moravian forests and reveals secrets that should have stayed buried.

While your survival skills and quick wits might advance your search, malevolent forces rise up against you. There are nightmares you can’t fight and win. Some of them … could be yours.

Your character is Daniel, Stela’s father, who is forced by events to return to a place, he swore never to return. In the forest he will encounter peculiar people who will help him understand the true reason why Stela keeps running away. Someday You’ll Return deals with intimate concepts of fatherhood, fears, lies and refusal to accept one’s past. While the story contains strong horror elements it’s not always the most obvious monsters which are the most frightening.

The Walking Evil takes you to the great classic of the survival horror of the 90s, where you guide the main character with a fixed system of cameras, which enhances the feeling of being in a real horror movie, or with the 3rd PERSON VIEW. Face plenty of trials, puzzles, and terrible enemies that will make you want to hide or even run away instead of wasting bullets on them. It’s an interesting detective story – there is nothing more wonderful than a twisted plot. The plot, which keeps in suspense from the first minute to the last.
