Insane (cancelled video game)

Insane (stylized as inSANE) was a survival horror video game, formerly in development by Volition to be published by THQ, in collaboration with film director Guillermo del Toro. It was being developed for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, and was to be released in 2013. It was intended as the first installment of a planned trilogy of Insane video games.

Development

Insane was first announced at the 2010 Spike Video Game Awards on December 11th 2010 by del Toro and Volition, in the form of a thirty-second teaser trailer. Del Toro said of the game, "With this new series of video games, I want to take players to a place they have never seen before, where every single action makes them question their own senses of morality and reality. THQ and Volition, Inc. are equally excited to make this vision of a completely new game universe into a reality."

Comic book artist Guy Davis was one of the key designers of the game. He has previously worked with del Toro on designs for At the Mountains of Madness.

Insane (2001 video game)

Insane (stylized as 1NSANE) is an off-road racing game by Invictus and distributed by Codemasters. It contains no plot and focuses heavily on multiplayer.

While in development, it had been provisionally titled Off The Road.

Levels are set in real world locations, scattered throughout North America, Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia. The actual design, however, is fictitious.

The single player campaign comprises a series of championships in different vehicle classes, where the player unlocks new vehicles and locations, based on their score.

Vehicles range from utility vehicles to light buggies and are either fictional or inspired by actual production vehicles. Though the names do not correspond with any actual vehicle, the fact is evident both visually in-game and in the names of the game's files.

A sequel, Insane 2, was released in January 24, 2012.

Gameplay

While this game does not have a plot, players can drive cars of their choices in either of nine events, which include the Capture the Flag, Jamboree, Gate Hunt, Destruction Zone, Pathfinder, Off-Road Racing, Return the Flag, and Free Roam, which, exclusively, is only available in practice mode.

Insane (Wipers song)

"Insane" is the second single from Wipers' album The Herd.

Wow! (online service)

Wow! (styled WOW!) was an online service run by CompuServe.com in 1996 and early 1997. Started in March 1996, it was originally thought to be an improved version of CompuServe's software, but it was later announced that it would be a user-friendly stand-alone "family" online service and was widely advertised on TV as such. Wow! was the first internet service to be offered with a monthly "unlimited" rate ($17.95) and stood out because of its brightly colored, seemingly hand-drawn pages.

The first release of this program was quite buggy, with many random shutdowns of the service and loss of email messages. The service developed a small, but very loyal fan base. However, this was not enough and the service was shut down on January 31, 1997.

There is a strong group of "WOWIES" who have fought on for years after its demise, to stay connected through chat groups, and a webring. This group believes they were "sold out" by Compuserve because the service was being bought out by AOL, who began offering a $19.95 unlimited service as it was shutting down WOW.

Wow (Inna song)

"Wow" (stylised as "WOW") is a song by Romanian recording artist Inna, released as the fifth single from her second studio album, I Am the Club Rocker. The song was written and produced by Inna's producers and managers Play & Win (Sebastian Barac, Marcel Botezan, Radu Bolfea). Inna uploaded the song on her YouTube channel two weeks prior the album's release, along with an internet video to "Put Your Hands Up" and "Endless". It was released as a promotional single in Romania, exclusively in order to promote the brand new opening of iTunes Store Romania. It was unlocked on September 4, 2011 for a limited period towards September 6 and it was then removed and finally re-uploaded once with the album's release on September 19, 2011. A cover for the track was shot in late September on a Romanian beach at the Black Sea shore. On April 5, 2012 an official music video was released on Inna's YouTube Account.

Background

"WOW" was written, produced and arranged by Sebastian Barac, Marcel Botezan, Radu Bolfea, Inna's long-time producers who identify themselves as Play & Win. The track was recorded at the Play & Win Studios in Bucharest, Romania. It is a dance song, combining elements of Euro-NRG, Europop and dance-pop. Lyrically, the song invites listeners, especially Inna's fanbase of "Club Rockers", to join her in dance. Due to popularity among Inna's fanbase, the song was released as an official single later in 2012.
