Topic: Whiplash



  
 Whiplash- Health Encyclopedia and Reference
The most common whiplash injuries occur when a motor vehicle is struck from behind, causing the occupant's body to thrust forward as the head snaps back and then forward until the chin strikes the chest.
The most common form of whiplash injury is neck strain that manifests as temporary pain and stiffness.
Other measures may be needed if the neck pain is constant, muscle spasms occur when the head is turned, or pain and spasms have spread to the shoulder and upper arm.

 Whiplash Information Page: National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS)
Treatment for individuals with whiplash may include pain medications, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, antidepressants, muscle relaxants, and a cervical collar (usually worn for 2 to 3 weeks).
Most patients recover within 3 months after the injury, however, some may continue to have residual neck pain and headaches.
Much of this research focuses on increasing scientific understanding of these disorders and finding ways to prevent and treat them.

Initially, whiplash is treated with a soft cervical collar.

The only time Whiplash becomes legitimately difficult is when you're stuck in a puzzle because the game is unclear as to what your objective is. This doesn't happen often, but it happens more often than it should.
The action in Whiplash is fine in concept, but, in execution, the game just feels as though it was rushed through development.
This sensation permeates the game's presentation as well, which has some decent qualities, but also gives the sense that lots of corners were cut.

 Review - Whiplash // PlayStation 2 /// Eurogamer
But the way the endless corridor sections in Whiplash are applied can only really be interpreted in one way: Crystal Dynamics knew this was a short game, and decided to pad it out excessively.
Whiplash makes the mistake of hiding some load sequences in elevators, complete with genuine elevator music, and the fact that this aural atrocity could quite happily be a tune playing over any other section in the game kind of stands out.
Spanx and Redmond are two out of thousands of unwilling participants in the endless experiments of a company called Genron (hur hur), an evil corporation that makes ridiculous products for leisure, housekeeping and other applications, and spends most of its time testing its absurd ideas on hapless animals.

By the time of Sit Stand Kneel Prey, the band had broadened its sound just a bit, largely due to a change in vocal style.
