Mysterious Stinker on WSW ad.

Post by ^_^ » Sat Aug 21, 2010 5:29 pm

Actually, this is truth how i found out about Ms.
My mom was playing Pacman online, then i came to her. Then i looked up and i saw a chinese-looking Stinker on the ad above the page.
I told my mom to see what's that, and it send us to MS page where you download the demo of WSW.
I dunno the site name, cuz i weren't able to read anything. My mom left comuter and i downloaded the game.
And on the ad, there were laser gates and the stiner had no hat or an orange hat.

Some prototype was on the Midnight Synergy CD. Not sure if it's the exact same one. After someone (think it was Liz Mayhew, not sure) won a contest with the CD as a prize and she already HAD the CD, she asked MS to send it to me instead and then I had the CD until I lost it. I didn't play the non-Wonderland games all that much, and the Wonderland prototype only had a very few levels, so I'm not missing THAT much, but still... I do kinda want to find it. It's gotta be somewhere around my house... but where exactly is that particular around...
Rest in peace, Kym. I hardly knew ya.
Rest in peace, Marinus. A bright star, you were ahead of me on my own tracks of thought. I miss you.

The prototype on the Games Collection CD is completely different to the one imaged above.

That was just "painted on" a screen shot of the original bald Stinky model - we were trying out different head covers, including hats, hair, horns, ears, etc. The hats won.

No idea, not one of our ads. If you can find it again, I'd like to see it, too. :)
