20 Year Old Previously Undiscovered Easter Egg Found in MNOG During Speedrun

Well just when you think there’s nothing left to be found in a game, you get surprises like this. Speedrunner Derek_MK on Twitch has found a previously unseen easter egg in the Le-Koro cutscene of MNOG!

According to Derek, “It looks like there is a 1/100 chance for all the matoran to hold up scorecards (either they all hold them up or they all don’t). It also rolls a 1/2 chance for each scorecard to either be a 0 or a 1.”

Quite a discovery indeed. You can watch the clip here, and maybe give the streamer some love while you’re there! :)

 

Update: It can be triggered manually!

Turns out there are three buttons in the scene, where if you click the three masks in order from right to left, you will trigger the Easter Egg.

This is a little bit easier than playing the animation ~50-100 times to see it by chance.

BIONICLE G2 “Masks of Power” Trailer Leaked

A short time ago, it was discovered that the BIONICLE website now contains a videos page that is not linked to on the main site. On it is the below trailer for the upcoming series of animated shorts, as well as a higher quality version of The Legend as seen on the official Facebook page.

JMMB and I were able to snag both videos in case the page is taken down, which can both be downloaded here:

BIONICLE The Game Playthrough Widescreen 480p

Decided to take the quality for this playthrough a little overboard by using our previously released widescreen patches to record in native 16:9 on the Xbox. This, in addition to MNOLG/VNOLG and BIONICLE Heroes will be the first in a full series of BIONICLE Game playthroughs soon to be added to the archives.

As usual, you can find both download and streaming copies on the videos page.

BIONICLE Heroes Playthrough 720p

Finally got around to uploading this with JMMB’s help for streaming. This, in addition to MNOLG/VNOLG and BIONICLE The Game will be the first in a full series of BIONICLE Game playthroughs soon to be added to the archives.

As usual, you can find both download and streaming copies on the videos page.

Streaming Music v2.0.0

This has been a long time coming, and it’s been neglected for quite some time due to the sheer workload. However thanks to a little script I wrote this morning, about 10+ hours of work was condensed to two. As a result, I’m happy to report that streaming music has now been updated, complete with all the new additions to the 2.0.0 music archive! Even promo CD voiceovers and sound effects are now streamable, among many other new additions.

You can find it all on the music page.
