Insert in PC Gamer

Hey, I couldn't find this in the forums but my apologies if someone has already posted this...

This month's issue of PC Gamer (UK) has an insert for Resistance 2 in the form of an old style newspaper. There are 8 pages in total.

Front page headline reads 'America Under Attack'.

I started following the game at the beginning but dropped out pretty quickly. I'm happy to pop along to my office this afternoon to scan it in, if no-one else has picked up on this yet.

Decided to be brave and upload them anyway - sorry, I've been a lurker for quite a while and the 1st few posts always feel a bit odd. Enjoy Wink

The interesting thing here is that several of these pages are very similar to the Dublin advert. However there are some new ones that weren't in the scans Kotaku had.

Pages 4, 6, 7 are not in the Kotaku scans.

Anyone else notice that the obituary in the bottom right of Page 6 (the graduation barbecue one) might be/is probably this? -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lY8-b9X7ec

Also, the George Mallory mentioned in Page 7 (the Everest article) was a real person who died trying to make it to the summit of Everest. Also mentioned, Edmund Hillary (and his sherpa) historically reached the summit two weeks after the publishing of the article (May 29, 1953).

In the marriage section, they mentioned the wedding of Mr. and Mrs. John Jones. Then look at the obituary...


...poor souls.

Anyone else notice that famed WWII hero Captain America (Steve Rogers) on page 6 is gathering people together to fight back?

I laughed a bit
