![]() Below Zero does a great job of feeling like a real, living, breathing world. The bioluminescence of the corals, fish and other organisms living their own lives helps to give vibrant light to the environment. Whenever I got stuck, I knew that if I could just find a databank log lying on the ocean floor, then I might be able to find the next direction I should take my investigation.īelow Zero is a surprisingly gorgeous game, as the light from your Sea Glider focuses on the various underwater flora that help to give color to the otherwise cold blue depths. These messages are one of the only connections that Robin will have to human civilization for much of Below Zero’s playtime, so they offer reassurance and hints at how to progress further. Text and voice logs leftover from Alterra’s work on the planet can be found and help to enrich the lore of the Subnautica world. As the player explores sunken ships and underwater caves, there is a sense of uncovering long-forgotten secrets and stories of past explorers and civilizations. ![]() The soundtrack is eerie and helps to enhance those feelings of exploration and discovering ancient mysteries that the game strives to achieve. On several occasions, I became too focused on my oxygen and paid the price by losing valuable resources and time. You’ll need to constantly be on the lookout for food and water while you’re trying to find better materials to explore deeper into the planet’s dark and cold ocean. You’ll need to balance your hunger, thirst, health, oxygen, and temperature to stay alive on Survival difficulty. One of the best things about Below Zero is how it really can feel like you are just barely surviving the planet’s harsh conditions. While some might argue this removes the feeling of isolation, the additions make Below Zero’s 4546B feel like a living world. It made the mystery feel more engaging compared to if I was trying to project the emotions on the character myself. ![]() I enjoyed hearing about Robin’s relationship with her sister and how she reacted to different developments in the story. This time around, the protagonist is voiced, with Robin offering a lot of insight into the different encounters on the cold planet. Everything that you need to survive for the first couple of days is provided, so the player can instead focus on collecting building materials to aid in the investigation. If you aren’t familiar with the survival methods of Subnautica, there can be a little bit of a learning curve, but the game spells out the basics and gives the player some food, water, and flares. Fueled by distrust of the Alterra Corporation, Robin takes a shuttle to 4645B and crash lands with nothing more than the clothes on her back, a small pod, and a fiery curiosity.Īfter Robin lands on the planet, it’s up to the player to learn how to survive the harsh conditions and build up an arsenal of repurposed materials to better navigate the treacherous environment. ![]() ![]() The story follows Robin Ayou as she tries to uncover the mystery behind her sister Sam’s death. Developers Unknown Worlds Entertainment have set out to capture that same sense of mystery and discovery of the ocean in their follow up to the 2018 indie hit Subnautica with the standalone expansion Subnautica: Below Zero.īelow Zero continues the exploration of planet 4546B in a new location with tons of exciting new additions. There is a lot to uncover about Earth’s history and the creatures, both past and present, that once dwelt here. The ocean is one of the most captivating locales on Earth, even though humanity has only explored about 20 percent of it. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() If you prefer, though, then you could always play the reimagining of this classic that was released on the Wii in 2009 with stunning hand-drawn graphics and a stirring score that perfectly accompanies this poignant tale of friendship and overcoming adversity. However, this title’s mix of puzzle and platforming elements is quite dense for its era and holds up rather well. It sees you take control of a boy and his companion: a metaphysical blob who will aid you throughout your journey. To be fair, there’s not much to this game’s core concept that isn’t spelled out in the title. This underrated gem was released to mixed reviews in 1989. A Boy and His Blob: Trouble on Blobolonia If you choose to look past that, though, Duck Hunt proves to be a simple good time as well as a noteworthy predecessor to some of the company’s later interactive innovations such as motion controls and pointer tech on the Wii. The subject matter may be a little uncomfortable for some given that attitudes towards hunting for sport have soured in many parts of the world in the decades since this title came out. The famous add-on was essentially a plastic handgun with sensor technology, but it was a great example of the ingenuity Nintendo would later become famous for. Originally released as an arcade game before getting an NES port in 1985, Duck Hunt is best known for its revolutionary use of the NES Zapper accessory. Many of Nintendo’s long-standing franchises got their starts on the NES, and while some of the console’s games have aged better than others, all of them deserve our love and respect for helping reignite the industry and kicking off the fun that would ensue for decades to come.Īs tough as it is to choose between so many true classics, here is our list of the 15 best games released for the NES. The main reason for the NES’ massive success story was its enormous library of great titles. Then, almost out of nowhere, Nintendo and the NES rescued our favorite hobby from the abyss and put it on the fast track to becoming the cultural cornerstone we know it as today. After the video game industry crash of 1983 and several years of arcade success, many still wondered whether video games still had a place in homes everywhere. The Nintendo Entertainment System is the most important console in the history of home gaming. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Lacking the real-life look of FIFA, PES 2009 looks like an outmoded dinosaur, a flabby veteran struggling to keep up with the patina of EA's labours. Having made a far from convincing start to its spell on the current generation, Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 arrives, head-down and determined to match the pace of the HD era, and after FIFA 09's astounding performance it has a lot to prove. And then there's PES perhaps much like Liverpool, it's a series that's heavily decorated but has of late fallen on lean times and in place of the affable Rafa Benitez, PES has the equally charming Seabass, reassuring his diehard fans that this year, finally, his team can deliver. On the one hand there's FIFA, using its financial clout to buy itself to the top of the charts and just like its spiritual counterpart Chelsea it's recently found a touch of flair that's opening people's eyes to its high gloss game. With vocal fans rallying behind them, FIFA and PES line up this year for what is surely the closest fought title bid yet. Either way, bonds are made that are hard to break. Or maybe you had a SNES in the house and were bound to the dynamic thrust of Konami's International Superstar Soccer series, watching it eventually blossom into the PES franchise. That's no less true when it comes to football of the virtual kind maybe you grew up with a Mega Drive in hand, your first steps on pixelated turf watched from the isometric view of the glorious early FIFA titles.

A task requiring 1 or 2 successes is quite possible, but obviously if you need any more than that you’ll need something special. The more results that are equal or lower, the more successes you get, and different actions will require a different number of successes. The most basic mechanic for Star Trek Adventures is this: you’re rolling 2d20, and you’re trying to get results on the individual die that are equal to or lower than a target number. As the Verrazzano is currently away, responding to a distress call from a Vulcan Expeditionary Group, I have decided that this is a fine opportunity to review their so-called ‘ Star Trek Adventures’ in-depth, to better understand how they have and will continue to boldly go where no one, not even the rest of Starfleet, has gone before. I have also seen them called before a board of Admirals to review their actions and directive violations, and while impressive the fact that no fewer than three starbases have had to be commissioned to deal with the discoveries from their missions is beginning to put a notable dent in the power requirements for the local sector’s industrial replicators.

The video game industry is hardly the only one with its own gimmick scents, with franchises like Game of Thrones and Star Trek having released character-based fragrances in the past. Office stationery supplier Viking Direct worked with artist Andy Singleton to create an incredible dragon art sculpture inspired by Game of Thrones. These aren't the only Sega franchises that have their own fragrances, as Atlus has been selling Persona character colognes and perfumes for years now. The Shenmue fragrance is described as a "rich fragrance with top notes of clashing cardamom and bergamot, smouldering golden tobacco, deep orris and a strong patchouli base." The Yakuza cologne is described as "a deep and mysterious scent of antique oak, cedarwood, beeswax infused with smoky bourbon, leathery rose and scorching pimento," which at least sounds somewhat on-brand for the franchise. Take pleasure in the rich base tones of leather, suede, and cedar." This is a considerable departure from Sonic's beloved chili dogs. The Sonic the Hedgehog cologne is described as an "aroma of fresh citrus, a zing of grapefruit zest and exotic lemon and lime, topped with the scene of the ocean breeze and chilled melon fade.

Large amounts of latency can make games feel less responsive and more difficult to respond to what’s coming your way, which can be more noticeable in a genre like fighters where differences in certain frames can make a big difference. Description of Samurai Shodown IV: Amakusas Revenge. ![]() Exceeding the time limit set for each player character in computer battles turns your character into his or her rival to defeat. It’s a good sign that KOF15 is already well within the mid-latency range, especially right next to where SamSho was initially, so I hope it only gets better from here.įor those unaware, input lag refers to the time taken from the actual pressing of a button on a controller to when the game was recorded and the input was displayed. The SAMURAI SHODOWN IV system adds such elements as 14 types of combo slashes, sneak attacks and suicides to its basic system while offering such new elements as time limits and rival characters to computer battles. We have to keep in mind that these numbers represent only the first beta version of KOF15 and may vary upon release. It’s unclear if this discrepancy is due to something in Sony’s hardware setup or a possible slight compatibility issue, but either way, the high amounts of lag aren’t the best look for a console that’s supposed to be more powerful than in the past - especially when it takes Their competition on PC and Xbox takes measures to address latency directly.Ĭompared to other modern SNK fighting games, KOF15 actually performs slightly better than King of Fighters 14 on PS4 and significantly more than SNK Heroines and Samurai Shodown according to Nigel ‘Noodalls’ Woodall’s previous tests. This is largely in line with what we saw previously with Guilty Gear Strive at release where the PS4 version showed 4 frames lag while the PS5 averaged 5.8. Perhaps a more disturbing pattern, however, UE4 games on PS5 have more input lag than their last generation counterparts.Īccording to Kimagre’s experiments, the original PS5 version of King of Fighters 15 showed an average input latency of 5.64 frames (94 ms). These results aren’t really surprising at all, considering a latency between 4 and 4.5 frames seems to be the average for newer fighting games running Unreal Engine 4 on console, which KOF15 certainly does. The Japanese tech analyst has undergone at least 100 input tests on each console and the available KOF15 version with results remaining fairly consistent across most of them.įor PS4 and PS4 Pro, both systems showed an average of 4.22 frames in input lag (70.3 ms) while the PS4 version running on PS5 was slightly higher at 4.28 frames (71.3 ms). With The King of Fighters 15 open beta dropping last weekend, Kimagre Gaming has run its own experiments to determine how much latency there is on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 4 Pro, and PlayStation 5. Now when a new fighting game comes out, many players are very curious as to what kind of input lag to expect from the experience even though only a few have the means and knowledge to actually test it. ![]() ![]() Choose the type of CorelDraw_Laser (be sure the RDWorks main program has been already installed), and then tick the item RDworks, as shown below: Click “install” and wait to compete the installation.

![]() ![]() In addition to overall battle system tweaks, Innocent Sin also introduced a rumor system - appropriate for high school teens - that players could use to influence events. ![]() Its main character was a high school student who, along with his friends, was granted the power to use Personas. The game follows a more traditional SMT style of gameplay: turn-based fights in which players can chat with demons encountered in battle, and no social elements to build relationships among characters.Īlthough this early title looks and plays vastly different from today’s Persona, it established a few series familiars - high school students living in cities and towns inspired by modern-day Japan fighting supernatural forces and achieving extraordinary feats.Ītlus built the sequel, Persona 2: Innocent Sin (1999), in much of the same way. It’s sort of like that old game where you yell "Bloody Mary" a bunch in order to summon a ghost, except in this case, the group gains the power to summon allies called Personas. It opens with a group of high school students, circa 1996 Japan, playing a "Persona" game. Shin Megami Tensei: Persona laid the groundwork for the Persona franchise. Developer and publisher Atlus eventually rebranded that game to Shin Megami Tensei: Persona with updated content. The most direct route you can trace to Persona is from 1994’s Shin Megami Tensei If…, a game about a group of high school students, to development on another supernatural high school story, Revelations: Persona, released in 1996 for PlayStation it would later come to PSP (and Windows, in Japan). Unraveling the origins of Persona requires jumping through the convoluted evolution of the Megami Tensei franchise, which has spawned such elaborately titled games as Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei, Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers and mess of other JRPGs. Whether you’re a brand-new player interested in learning what Persona is all about, or a returning fan looking for a refresher, we have answers to your questions. But it’s a franchise that spans years of heroes and an absolute crapload of games that often relate to each other in subtle yet important ways. Each Persona game is a contained experience that stands on its own. The series celebrates both its 20th anniversary this year and the release of its next main entry, Persona 5, which launches Sept. It is the JRPG genre at its finest, combining confidence and style with engrossing storytelling. As a social simulator, it places heavy emphasis on building meaningful bonds - and more impressively, succeeds. As a dungeon crawler, it encourages players to grind to their heart’s content without forcing their hand. The arrival of Persona 4 Golden, the latest major entry in the series, was no different the game garnered near universally positive praise from critics, as well as one of Polygon’s elusive top scores.Īs a role-playing series, Persona consistently follows a group of teenagers doing extraordinary things. Each new title has been an impressive improvement on the last, a thoughtful refinement of old ideas coupled with the introduction of new concepts. Since its arrival in 1996 in the form of a teen-filled role-playing game, the series has undergone massive changes. ![]() |
