Unfortunately I can't install the app. For those who can, what's the game like? Sort of a quiz?
More like a mini adventure aboard the Prometheus, to find out why Vickers is using a whole lot of the ships energy.
guuuuurl, pls no spoilers here!!!!
Ok, ok, it shure implies something,
but in the end of the game it makes you guess whats up, so nothings spoiled.

I love adventures, but this was kinda stupid.
But there is not much to do without crossing the movies narrative I guess.
So the idea is cool and liked wandering the ship. ;D
I think that last picture of Vickers' suite pretty much confirms that that recent image of Vickers sitting in a room that is not reminiscent of the rest of the ship more than likely is on the ship - it looks like she enjoys her comfort, what with that chandelier n'all! :)
Prometheus is a beauty. Inside and out. I love it. Love all the little elements hearkening back (forward) to Nostromo.
Holy shit. I loved the shot of the landed Prometheus. And the interiors are fantastic. Though I admit, the chandeliers took me off guard.
Just found something,
if you change the temperature in some of the other rooms therer are more hidden messages.
Amazing photos guys. I think this is my favorite part of the ship up to this point. :)

Despite the exterior of the Prometheus looking quite sleek in comparison to the Nostromo, the interior looks decidedly dark and ominous, again, in line with the interior of the Nostromo....CAN'T FU€KING WAIT!!!!

Especially David's little space - it jumps straight out at you that it is very similar to Ash's little space in
Alien.
The odd one for me is Vickers quarters... it looks like a place you would throw a nice party in minimalistic surroundings, but nevertheless a party with them barstools, dancefloor and a nice couch. I mean, look at that chandelier-like lightning hanging in there from the ceiling :)

O Hai.
Quite right though. The lineage is brilliant. :)
Very interesting biblical references there. Hmm...
Very nice pictures of the ship's interior. Looking very reminiscent of the Nostromo, actually.
Only things missing are the lower lower decks filled with pipes, gratings, and dripping water. But then again, Ridley said that he wouldn't really be going back to the gritty sci-fi, so I'm very happy a good balance was found.
Just did a quick Google search on the date on the Sumerian pictograph and it brought up this.

If may have no connection at all but the fact it mentions Weyland (albeit a different spelling) involves burial tombs, ancient massacres, and humans being dismembered by wild animals is somewhat familiar.

Quite a head scratcher as to why they aren't making (yet) an official tie in game. Seems like it would make sense, anyway.

I wrote about her keeping Weyland on board the Prometheus - that was the correct answer.
It was just some run of the mill "Congratulations!" and the final pic of the crew. Pretty lame really. I was kind of hoping for a picture of Weyland himself in old age makeup.
Maybe it did give me the generic congrats - because it gave pics of the crew.
I was probably not paying much attention lol. ::)
Son of a bitch, Vickers has a bar in her suite! She can pour me a couple fingers of fine Irish Whiskey any day. Heck, she could pour me a shot of Space Tapir urine and I still would drink it with a smile on my face.

You know the one thing i'm also really glad to see making a return are the circular designs in the ship. That was something Ridley sorta had to fight for economically on the first Alien, because it costs more to design sets like that instead of building more square rooms. It's very much true to the design of Alien in that sense, too. :) I mean, it looks like a real place which I really like. Unlike some other recent sci fi films which felt like walking through an Apple store.

OK! It was cool it was all good but now there is way to much hype.... ??? what if the movie doesnt come up to the expectations?
Then let's just say it's not the movie's fault.
It will fall on the shoulders of a fella named Lindelof.

It will fall on the shoulders of a fella named Lindelof.
Unfortunately, because it's trendy to hate on him... even though Spaihts did the majority of the script from what we know. And I doubt he'll pander to fan expectations (we've all seen the theories), so I expect plenty of people here to hate the movie, no matter how good it really is.
Only thing that's doing the movie any wrong at this point is the marketing; they're really letting a lot slip through the cracks as of late, even here with the Verizon minigame, they spoil the fact that
Spoiler
Vickers is stowing an elderly Weyland aboard the Prometheus.
And with this over-marketing, fanboy expectations will grow and grow and grow until their isolated minds can't handle it anymore.
Yeah, the movie is still a few months away and they're letting a lot out of the bag.
Spoiler
Though I suppose it was no surprise that Weyland was on board the Prometheus.
The Verizon mini-game just reassured it. I almost wish the marketing would slow to a halt so there's still some sense of mystery and intrigue left once the flick comes out.
Maybe this has been addressed already.....but that room with the bar and the couch...are we sure it's Vicker's quarters and we're sure it's on the Prometheus? The windows in that room appear to look outside in an earth-type environment.
Pretty sure those are cabinets with inner-lighting, dude.

Wow, everything looks so spectacular. With all these new images lately, I don't know where to look... "Oh shiny!... oh, oh shiny!!!!... oooh look at that shiny..."
At the same time I'm getting a little nervous they might go overboard with the marketing. Look how many images we've seen from the film already. We've had the teaser trailer, the full trailer, the Wondercon/IMAX trailer and then all the viral marketing. It's a good sign they're so invested in this film but I want to feel surprised by the time Prometheus comes out.
Spoiler
- We already know that the space jockeys / engineers are tall blue-grey humanoids.
- We know that Vickers is keeping Peter Weyland on board the Prometheus.
- We know that Shaw uses the Med Pod to get a C-section or some other surgical procedure done to get an Alien lifeform removed from her.
- We know the Prometheus collides with the Derelict.
Those might not seem like such big spoilers to some but I kind of wished they kept things like that out of the marketing.

I would expect the monitor inside the cocktail table to resemble something a little less high-tech.
Alien used simple, green-screen monitors that looked like they were from the 1980's and it takes place after
Prometheus. The cocktail table should resemble something more like this...

I wish the complaints about the screens would end. The Prometheus and Nostromo differ for a reason, and it's not exactly far-fetched.
My take is that it's Peter Weyland suite not Vickers.
The only thing that bothers me is the furniture not being attached to the ship, i mean those are Ikea tables and chair, can you imagine what happen to the mess hall glass table when the ship navigate a bit rough...
Won't be important in the movie but its kinda throw me back design wise.

Pretty sure the tables would be bolted down, or if not kept in storage during flight maneuvers, FTL jumps etc. They have a butler on the ship after all.

In fairness, it's one thing to differ from technology represented aboard an old tug and quite another to differ from that used on Gateway Station - and used at an apparently state-of-the-art hearing by Weyland-Yutani, themselves.
If nothing else, they should have tried to use similar types of font and wireframe-type graphics.
I can gloss over things like Burke's intercom being relatively low-resolution, because who knows how small the camera was on the other end? Likewise for the Marines' cameras. Maybe stuff like that was because of some new way to extend battery life.
But nobody was ever shown making mass use of things like holographic displays, even on the Auriga.
A few updated touches, here and there, are nice. Trying to sell something which is so
radically different, wholesale, as being cost-effective enough to install on a spaceship like this, sent far, far away, but not closer to home many decades/centuries later? Even on what are clearly much later military vessels? It can be done, but it's going to make the previous films look
really jarring when seen as a single continuity.
It's like they didn't even make an effort to try and stay relatively in line with the very reality they're meant to be working within and just went, "F**k it, let's out-do '
Minority Report'." :)
It's their choice! But it's going to make the very foundation upon which it's built seem strange. The more I see of this production, the more I get the feeling it's going to come across like something they should have just given up trying to link in
any way with the franchise, rather than using it as an excuse to faff around with the Space Jockey mystery. Would've given them complete artistic
and canonical licence to do the story however they want, then. It's not as if a completely new science-fiction project by this director wouldn't have sold just as well. Or just gone ahead and made it a futuristic
sequel, rather than confining themselves in the historical precedent of a prequel prison.
Not judging the film's quality in any way. I still hope to enjoy what there is. Just lamenting apparently missed opportunities.

We see one room in Gateway, and the inquest isn't held by Weyland-Yutani; there are different insurance companies there, and maybe a couple of government lobbyists. It's a legal proceeding. WY are there for obvious reasons. But that's not the point (and who said the hearing was state of the art?) -- We have to accept that, even today, technological consistency can't really be found when you go from city to city, country to country. Recently I was shocked when I went to my fiance's clinic - it looked like something out of the Soviet era, and it's barely a mile away from my own clinic. I take experiences like this into account when I'm faced with things like Prometheus-Gateway, etc. Likewise, I've sat in university lecture halls with top of the line equipment, and conversely in a small court room with a battered old projector. In the same year, too. I really don't think it's that far-fetched.
I had to submit a load of duff info just to play this game, careful what you put on there if outside the USA guys.
Finished the game, not a lot to do except find 2 words GENESIS and APOCALYPSE, also if you turn the power off to absolutely everything, a clue appears in the vault but I still dont know what to do with it lol. Anyway one of those words (above) is very well hidden and both I suspect to do with Weyland, speaking of which, the answer to the question to complete the game appears to be anything with his name in it... at least thats what I think!

... this might have been noted by others before, but doesn't the transparant tubes in the 'lab' shot mounted on the wall, remind of similar tubes in Ashs lab enviroment on The Nostromo?

Great find! The lab definitely reminded me of Ash's little station on the Nostromo, but I didn't know it could be that specific. Though the size looks different.
A loooong time ago, someone, somewhere, discussed it here ;)
That someone was me. :P

Look to the right of Fassbender, at the pink coloured objects behind him. They're the same design as seen in the science lab onboard the Nostromo.
Could somebody take a screengrab from Alien to show what I'm referring to? The objects are visible during the panning shot at the start of chapter 12 (theatrical cut). Thanks.

I imagine the universe of Alien/Prometheus is as diverse (if not, more so) as our universe is here in real-life. That said, it'd be kind of unrealistic for a mission like the Prometheus' to use the crusty technology you see in Alien.
Quote from: MrSpaceJockey on Apr 12, 2012, 09:10:36 PM
Holy shit. I loved the shot of the landed Prometheus. And the interiors are fantastic. Though I admit, the chandeliers took me off guard.
I love how the front/top of the ship has a shape similar to the design of the Narcissus.
This ship itself has Ron Cobb written all over it
The 2 real reason why the Prometheus looks slicker than previous Aliens movies :
Scott is fed up with "grungy" Si-fi as he call it.
The average audience (the main target) has no taste for old school designs.
Now the whole "this is the best money can buy spaceship" angle works for me.
As long as the designs look good to me.
Those ikea table and that suite are a bit laughable.
Hope it will work in context.
Now you too can live all PROMETHEUS style! ;)

;D Good find, Lars.
A brief note on the set pic...
I realize it is a pretty standard conceit, within sci-fi films, that futuristic spacecraft have magical anti-gravity systems (powered by elves, unicorns and pixie dust, most likely). However, the Prometheus designers might have given some thought to having the furnishings physically bolted down. Call me crazy, but I understand this is even done on most scientific and military ocean vessels ::)
However, most cruise ships do not subscribe to this long standing tradition...and choose to be rebels of the sea:

I also wondered about zeroG issues with the furnitures, but the Nostromo was also clutterd with stuff.
At least the dipping bird didn't seem to mind the long travelling.
But what really makes me wonder is the
captains wheel on the Prometheus.
How do they get the elves, unicorns and pixie dust underneath a standing captain on a glass-bottom bridge?
Oh, and this came to my mind:

Don't be silly. The elves, unicorns and pixie dust do not physically hold objects to the floor...they create the magical field that permeates the ship, creating the artificial gravity. Geez, everyone knows this. :P
But what powers the Prometheus engines, you ask?

One problem.. You forgot to factor in the inertial dampeners. No need to bolt anything down.
Though, dampeners didn't prevent the Nostromo from shaking around crazily when landing.
