Breaking Bad: The Game

It's right under the video description.

I have a question suited for the GFXers. In Adobe Photoshop CS3 (or any other which the method is similar), how do you bend text so that it forms an "O"? I've tried bending the text with the "Create Warped Text" and "Arch" features but they don't go in an "O" formation, can anyone tell me how I can do this? Thanks.

Create a circular path (Using the ellipse tool or the pen tool) and you can type on it with the type tool.

No, it's not. IT's just been modded, whatever it is. It also says GTA V at the end of the video. Which I'm fairly certain is not correct.

Anyone else?

That's weird. I just watched it and it had a whole bunch of R* logos in the opening, but no mention of V at the end. The breaking bad game says it is being published/developed by AMC. This little video says R* is publishing it. Strange. The graphics kind of looked semi early 2000s.

We may never know the story behind this trickery.

I know UNRATED already explained what you needed to know, but I thought I'd make an addition.

Create a perfect circle using the Ellipsed Tool (U) and holding down shift.



Using the Text Tool (T), click on the edge of the circle. You should be able to write on the border, like this.



Reposition if you have to using Free Transform (Ctrl+T).



Delete ellipse shape layer.



Ta dah!



@Otter, that's really weird, the characters have a big resemblance to Walt and Jesse from Breaking Bad, but they don't sound like them at all, plus it doesn't look like a video game adaptation of the show.

I tried google but it didn't help.

It's an old beta of a video game that was cancelled a long time ago. That was the demo footage shown at one of the big gaming expos (E3?). It was posted in Gaming Chat a few months ago, it got cancelled then revived and there is presently no info on it. Something to do with APB. The blue bar hides the copyright. Can't remember what the hell it is now, the main characters were brothers I think.

E: Sonny's got it, though it was related to The Getaway, not APB.

Isn't that that game called Eight Days? I'm pretty sure that's what the name was.

I see this on facebook a lot, people comment with a named URL, now what i wanna know, is how do you name it, for example here on GTAF i could post a link like this.

http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showuser=36294
And directly link it, OR i could make the URL a description of what is within the URL Like this

This guy likes to ramble about irrelavent things

So how do i do it on facebook? Since facebook doesn't have BBCode

[Tryst]

Links are automaticly formated by facebook, for instance it'll reconize a name and auto turn it into a link. Same goes for urls, it automaticly fetches the header.

Why do so many people, Italians in particularly wear a Saint Christopher chain? I do because my family gave it to me, and also if you watch the soprano's you will see how they almost all where it?...

[GTA_stu]

he's a popular saint because of the legend associated with him and because he was supposedly about 7ft 5. He's also a patron of travel, and so travellers or people who are going on long journey's will wear pendants of him or place them in their vehicles in order to receive protection. Here's the legend:

QUOTE (I think you can guess where I got this from)

According to the legendary account of his life, Christopher was a Canaanite 5 cubits (7.5 feet (2.3 m)) tall and with a fearsome face. While serving the king of Canaan, he took it into his head to go and serve "the greatest king there was". He went to the king who was reputed to be the greatest, but one day he saw the king cross himself at the mention of the devil. On thus learning that the king feared the devil, he departed to look for the devil. He came across a band of marauders, one of whom declared himself to be the devil, so Christopher decided to serve him. But when he saw his new master avoid a wayside cross and found out that the devil feared Christ, he left him and enquired from people where to find Christ. He met a hermit who instructed him in the Christian faith. Christopher asked him how he could serve Christ. When the hermit suggested fasting and prayer, Christopher replied that he was unable to perform that service. The hermit then suggested that because of his size and strength Christopher could serve Christ by assisting people to cross a dangerous river, where they were perishing in the attempt. The hermit promised that this service would be pleasing to Christ. After Christopher had performed this service for some time, a little child asked him to take him across the river. During the crossing, the river became swollen and the child seemed as heavy as lead, so much that Christopher could scarcely carry him and found himself in great difficulty. When he finally reached the other side, he said to the child: "You have put me in the greatest danger. I do not think the whole world could have been as heavy on my shoulders as you were." The child replied: "You had on your shoulders not only the whole world but Him who made it. I am Christ your king, whom you are serving by this work." The child then vanished. Christopher later visited the city of Lycia and there comforted the Christians who were being martyred. Brought before the local king, he refused to sacrifice to the pagan gods. The king tried to win him by riches and by sending two beautiful women to tempt him. Christopher converted the women to Christianity, as he had already converted thousands in the city. The king ordered him to be killed. Various attempts failed, but finally Christopher was decapitated.

Thanks a lot GTA STU, that was a great help mate.

Here's my query for those of you that enjoy card tricks; my grandfather used to do a card trick where he'd tell me to pick a card he'd put in back in the deck, bring the cards close to his mouth and blow; suddenly, the card wouldn't be there, it had been transported to another part of the deck.



Can anybody tell me how he did this trick ? it's been plaguing me for years.

Here is my question - are you incapable of providing any other help than Google (or in this case Bing) links?

Anybody know any decent free alternatives to Fraps? I tried some kind of Camstudio thing, but the picture was absolute garbage.

[Warlord.]

Anyone know the name of the drums used in this song?



Thanks in advance.
