You Always Knew That The Teletubbies Would Like to Chew On Your Arm

It’s Sunday and I’m about to go to bed as I’m up for work early in the morning; but before I head off to the land of nod I’m going to show you a video that will help you sleep peacefully tonight, complete with a satisfied smile.

What’s scarier than hordes of extremely fast zombies running out of the darkness towards you? What’s scarier than a Witch than can incapacitate you with one swipe? What could be more terrifying than hearing a tank bounding around the corner behind you? Well, what? Hearing “La-La!” as you walk around a dark city, that’s what.

L4DMods (the credit goes to Flameknight7) have put together a mod for Left 4 Dead that replaces the infected in the game with characters from the children’s TV series, Teletubbies. Yes, you can finally shoot Tinky Winky in the face before taking a look at just what’s in that handbag of his, and why the hell he has one in the first place anyway.

My mum was a childminder, so Teletubbies was on in the house all the time as I was growing up. Having to sit through years of them saying the same thing over and over again, plus a sun with a baby’s face, I can safely say that I’m going to relish the opportunity to blow Po’s head off. Unfortunately that freaky bear that sticks its tongue out isn’t there, which is disappointing because I’ve always wanted to put a few slugs into it. Noo-Noo also doesn’t make an appearance, which is a big oversight because he could have replaced The Boomer and unleashed custard instead of vomit.

You can download the mod for yourself here, finally accomplishing what most of us have always wanted to do (unfortunately you can’t put Dipsy’s head on a stick and parade it around town manically laughing). Now if only we could gun down The Tweenies…

Fallout 3 Goes Green

Fallout 3 GreenWorld

The world of Fallout 3 can be a very depressing place; all that barren brown and grey with not a tree in sight (or at least one with leaves). To rectify the lack of ability to flex your green hands Khyrin of Fallout 3 Nexus (a modification site for the game) has created GreenWorld.

GreenWorld does exactly what it says on the tin and covers the post-apocalyptic Capital Wasteland in natural plant life. The soil may be charred, full of radiation and covered in debris; but when you look up and see a tree you’ll breathe a sigh of relief and hug it with all your might.

Ok, so maybe plant life would one day return to a nuclear scarred wasteland, but do we really need a mod that makes the game look like Oblivion? I loved the landscape of Fallout 3 because, as bleak as it may be, plenty of games have a landscape covered in green and it was something different. Of course, you don’t have to download the mod if you don’t want to but if it takes your fancy you can grab it from the link below.

LittleBigPlanet Now Has Over 600,000 User-Created Levels

LittleBigPlanet

Media Molecule brings word that 1,934,700 players have created 646,135 levels in LittleBigPlanet. That’s 35,373 levels created a week since its release. Those are some grand figures right there, and that’s an awful lot of content you’re missing out on if you’ve not yet picked up the game.

Granted, most of them are probably pretty awful but there’s always the opportunity to create your own levels to enjoy with friends. There are still some amazing creations out there; such as this re-creation of a Gradius level, the first level of Super Mario Bros, a Pacman maze or even a level based off the TV show Scrubs.

So, as you can see there’s something there for everyone. You can also play these levels in the guise of various video game characters; such as those from Killzone 2, Metal Gear Solid 4God of War and Final Fantasy VII.

This game is the reason why I want to get a PS3, but if you already own one then you can pick it up here.
