someone broke down all the rumours of what video game Murder Your Maker could be attached to, alluding that the case for Resident Evil has an Achilles heel:

a few strange notes

There is a Buro Bangladesh bank but not a Buro Bank

"Stephen Harper PM"...er, there is a Stephen Harper who is the Prime Minister of Canada Twisted Evil

gawddayum.

They made the video private and removed it from the website. Worst thing is I totally saved the video to extract every frame as a JPEG. But I deleted it a while ago.

Hello, I am the editor who posted that article, just wanted to let you guys know, that, whatever the game is, it's definitely something related to Prototype. The trailer has images from the first game in the franchise and everything fits perfectly, it might not be a direct sequel, but MURDER YOUR MAKER is part of that franchise. I hope you liked the article, and if you did, keep coming back to the site, we love getting to know our readers, just visit the home page for all the current gaming news. Here's a link to the article about the video: http://news.tgn.tv/prototype-2-murder-your-maker/

wow great job!! i cant believe how clear you got it, i worked on it for awhile, and never got the image that readable

eta: i knew before that the first part of the code was zczc

but nothing really fit it for all the decrypters i tried because it would just mean ABAB..etc...and there is very few words in english (if any) that fit that pattern (if someone does know a word like that (i mean standard english) then i will give them a silver dollar)

so I decided to google it

I swear to CRAP that if they put up a website that I have to sit there with some crappy flash website and work my way through literally 1000 combinations again, I'm going to be pissed.

The worst part was that after I did all that, they realized what a dumb thing it was, and fixed it so everything was out in the open. I was displeased.

Then they got me in trouble with youtube for recording and posting the videos from the site and posting them there.

Thanks, Activision. You know, I wouldn't have had to do that if you hadn't made such an idiotic puzzle.

Actuall,y when it's someone sitting there doing 1000 combinations, it's no longer a puzzle. It's just a brute-force attack. Why was it 1000 combinations? Most of the items were revealed with two numbers. Some were with three numbers. There were ten digits. Was there anythign with 4? no, not as I recall- I think it blinked out if you tried. Didn't matter- I was damned if I was going to do 10,000 combinations.
