![]() ![]() In 1991, Sony revealed that it was working on a new version of the SNES, complete with a CD-ROM drive - it was to be called the “Play Station”. Widely known as the father of PlayStation, Sony engineer Ken Kuturagi kicked off his video game career designing the revolutionary SPC700 sound chip for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES).Ģ. To kick off a week of coverage, here are 20 facts about the first PlayStation that you may not know (or can argue about the accuracy of in the comments section). But with its powerful hardware, geared toward real-time 3D graphics, and imaginative marketing, it was the Sony machine that triumphed. The machine hit Japanese shelves on 3 December 1994, barely a week after Sega’s rival Saturn console. Fans of retro gamers should check this one out.It revolutionalised the games industry and brought us classic titles such as Gran Turismo, Tekken and Resident Evil – and this week the original Sony PlayStation turns 20. The classic games do get a nice new twist on them for those otherwise familiar with the games. Galaga 30th Anniversary Collection is worth a download for the free Galaxian "G 30th" edition alone, though the value of buying all 3 extra games is debatable. While Galaga offers the most nostalgic value, and Gaplus has its 2-dimensional movement, Galaga 88 is the deepest of the 4 games, and most worth a $2.99 in-app purchase, though all 3 extra games can be downloaded for $7.99. ![]() It feels hard to justify buying all 3 extra games of my own volition, having gotten to play all 3 for this review. All the games now have the autofire option and the similar enhanced graphical effects, which just tends to drown out the often subtle gameplay differences between them. The big problem with the collection as a whole is that the "30th G" elements all make the games feel very similar. Plus, the app does come with Galaxian for free. The "G 30th" elements bring nice new twists to the familiar games, and introduce Gaplus and Galaga '88 to people who might not have ever gotten to play them. It's a far superior controls scheme to other Galaga releases on iOS by far. ![]() There is a 1:1 slider with a mild offset on the bottom, and tapping on the screen fires. Galaga 30th Anniversary Collection's best element is that Namco finally figured out how to make these games control well on iOS. Point values have been completely changed the scores on the first level of many games may be higher than my high scores in the normal versions of those games, ever. These include enhanced graphics a new auto-fire ability by holding down on the screen (though bullets take time to recharge) as well, there are Galaga Points that can be earned and used toward consumable powerups and screen backgrounds. Each game has been enhanced with similar "G 30th" elements. Galaga '88 includes more enemy formations and a dimensional travel element. Gaplus brings the ability to move in a two-dimensional space, along with the ability to capture enemy ships. ![]() Next up is the eponymous Galaga, which added moving enemy formations, Challenging Stages, and the ability to a sacrifice a ship in order to recapture it to get double firing. Galaga 30th Anniversary Collection starts off with an appreciation for irony there are 4 games in this package total, but the one game that is free is Galaxian, the Space Invaders-inspired shooter. ![]() ![]() ![]() Try your hand at riddles and skill-based video games.

But I think there's also a connection between faith and meaning - that a belief in a higher power usually leads to purpose. The suicide/hell/punishment connection is widely believed (even though it's not biblical nor espoused by modern theologians). Didn't mean suicidal thoughts are more prevalent if you believe in an afterlife. Help Well, when I mentioned afterlife, I was referring to the words before it: "going to a place of rest." My point was that "going" somewhere would be a more prevalent thought if you actually believe there's somewhere to go. Oh, I'm falling so I'm taking my time on my Oh, oh, I'm falling so I'm taking my time on my ride I've been thinking too much (I've been thinking too much) There are people back home which are talking to you We have a list of people that we would takeīut I don't seem to see many bullets coming through Oh, I'm falling so I'm taking my time on my ride I'm falling so I'm taking my time on my ride Yeah, I think about the end just way too muchĪll my enemies who wouldn't wish who I was Pieces of peace in the sun's peace of mind ![]() I just wanna stay in the sun where I find ![]() ![]() ![]() There are some great moments here, but the presentation as a whole is a rather uneven and overly long mix of catchy pop rock songs, (semi-)progressive tracks, and the unavoidable balladry.Ĭompared to the mostly upbeat Invisible Touch, the tempo of most of the songs is significantly lower here, giving the album a relaxed, sometimes even atmospheric vibe that mostly works in its favour. Regardless of what came after however, We Can’t Dance had its own shortcomings. Banks and Rutherford were somehow crazy enough to attempt a final album under the Genesis name with some other guy, and well, we all know how that one turned out. When Collins chose to fully dedicate himself to his solo career, finally leaving the band in 1996, they were left without that irreplaceable singing drummer who saved them from fading away after Peter Gabriel had left more than 15 years prior (note this is the short version). We Can’t Dance, the band’s fourteenth LP, did not climb to quite the same heights as its predecessor, but still spawned numerous hit singles and ended up selling millions, which was more than enough to uphold their popularity worldwide.ĭespite all of this, even Genesis’ longest-standing power trio formation was slowly nearing its end. An understandable pause followed in the wake of its success, and Phil, Mike and Tony did not emerge with a new record until five years later. Once knights of prog, then masters of pop, Genesis had reached their commercial peak with 1986’s Invisible Touch, arguably one of the greatest pop albums of the decade. ![]() As the record moves forward, it becomes painfully clear that his typical crooning does more harm than good. His voice is fairly distinguishable, but maintains a very similar tone throughout the album, severely lacking in character compared to that of Peter Gabriel or even Phil Collins. Ironically, it is Ray Wilson who seems to have put the most heart in his performance. Chester Thompson, who had been a constant additional live performer along with guitarist Daryl Stuermer for nearly 20 years, was actually denied permanent membership before this happened, and both joined Collins on his way out. The fact that two different drummers, Nir Zidkyahu and Nick D’Virgilio (ex- Spock’s Beard, Big Big Train), were brought in for the album only increases the sense that Genesis were no longer properly functioning as a group. Whether they suffered from a temporary loss of creativity or just didn’t care much one way or the other, the effort on the band’s part seems minimal. Many of these songs appear willing to return to a progressive sound, but try to accomplish this without sacrificing pop accessibility. Now, of course the band’s material, even at its most commercial, had always retained at least some “artful” elements. ![]() The basis for this absolute disappointment was built on the Banks‘ and Rutherford‘s inability to commit to a musical direction. ![]() Calling All Stations (1997)Ĭalling All Stations was the fifteenth and final studio record under the Genesis name, and has more than earned its prestigious status as the lowest point in their career. With the group’s impending 50th anniversary this year, we are looking back at Genesis’ albums and ranking them from their worst to the best. Collins left the band in 1996, and was replaced by Ray Wilson with whom the band released their final studio effort, 1997’s Calling All Stations. The band regrouped and went on releasing three albums eight studio albums with Phil Collins stepping as a singer. Following the tour promoting the album, frontman Peter Gabriel left the group in mid 1975. This lineup culminated with the band’s magnum opus The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway in 1974. By the end of 1970, Phillips and Mayhew had left the band, with Phil Collins joining as drummer, and by early 1971, guitarist Steve Hackett had filled the gap left by Phillips.The lineup of Gabriel, Banks, Hackett, Rutherford, and Collins remained in place until Gabriel’s departure in 1975.ĭuring the period of 1970-1975, the band produced some of the most widely-acclaimed albums of the progressive rock era, including Nursery Cryme, Foxtrot, and the seminal album Selling England by the Pound, which generated Genesis’ first foray into the charts with “I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)”. Genesis started as an amalgam of two bands formed by schoolboys attending Charterhouse School in Godalming, England the original lineup consisted of Peter Gabriel, Anthony Phillips, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford, and Chris Stewart, though Stewart was soon replaced as drummer by John Silver and then John Mayhew. ![]() ![]() ![]()
![]() "We're making sure that if you said you're going to try to be evil, you stick to it and keep up your mayhem levels. "We're charting what you do second-to-second," Fox said. ![]() They're constantly being assessed by your gameplay choices. Those decisions aren't doled out on a chapter by chapter basis either. If you're bad, you get more indiscriminate powers, you're just all about mayhem." "If you're a good guy, you get more surgical strike abilities to fight the enemy and avoid civilians. "Your powers evolve differently based on whether you're a hero or villain," Fox said. Players can opt for killing headshots by firing smoke or neon-based projectiles, or they can incapacitate foes by taking them out at the legs or through other non-lethal means. "Delsin can choose whether he wants to obliterate enemies or take them down alive," he said. Karma, Fox said, is also embedded into the game's combat itself. It manifested in fabric too the dual birds silkscreened on Delsin's jacket reflect his karmic state, with the red bird dominating the white one when evil, vice versa when good. That karmic choice was reflected in our mission, the dialogue between the two and the very fabric of Delsin's character. The humans on the receiving end of Delsin's deadly powers were armed criminals, not Seattle's citizens. ![]() We set off with the goal to destroy a group of houseboats suspected of serving as home to Seattle's illegal drug industry. Rather than encourage her dark side, Delsin took her under his wing, joining Fetch in her anti-drug trade crusade. Later, playing as Delsin myself, I opted to redeem Fetch. By the end of that great mayhem, dozens were caught in the crossfire or intentionally killed. But that didn't stop Sucker Punch from executing unarmed protesters and squads of soldiers from the Department of Unified Protection, or DUP.Īs Delsin, the developer continued on its smoke and neon-infused superpower killing spree, doing great harm to the city and its civilians in pursuit of an anti-Conduit leader. Their mission seems cruel, as the protesters are peaceful, if intolerant. Sucker Punch opted for the latter, leading to a mission in which Delsin and Fetch harass and attack groups of anti-Conduit protesters. "Or you can choose to be a jerk and corrupt her, you can turn her into a killer." "You can either walk the high road and try to prove to people that Conduits are good redeem Fetch and show her how to be that hero character. "What you do with that freedom is the player's choice," said game director Nate Fox. ![]() Delsin, having just absorbed the neon-based powers of the character Fetch, another Conduit and a drug dealer-slaying vigilante, is given the option to redeem or corrupt her. Divert from the path and you'll be appropriately punished.Īt a recent hands-on demo of Second Son, Sucker Punch showed that system in practice. Stay on those paths and align your moment-to-moment actions to one or the other, and you'll be rewarded. The karmic choices in Infamous: Second Son, as in previous Infamous games, will lead its protagonist to decide at key moments whether to walk the path of good or evil. The choices players make in Sucker Punch's PlayStation 4 debut as the young "Conduit" Delsin Rowe will have an impact not just on him, but on his superhuman gifts and the people around him. The decision to be heroic, to use your superhuman powers for good, or to be a villainous destructive force and seek satisfaction by any means necessary will matter more than ever in Infamous: Second Son. ![]() ![]()
![]() Smartphone game Pokémon Go, which swept the world in 2016, is still the most popular “augmented reality” game around. In Japan, Universal Studios is to open a Mario-themed Super Nintendo World whenever the pandemic eases enough to let punters back in. Mario Kart Live is the latest of several intrusions of Nintendo’s brands into the real world. I must admit I had more fun abandoning the races and following the kart around my flat with my four-year-old in tow, gleefully enjoining my to crash it into the baby or explore under the bed. Each new race has a new theme, from underwater to Bowser’s Castle. Racing a championship, you’re given some virtual opponents and the usual array of items and power-ups: munch a mushroom and the kart gets a little burst of speed, get hit by a shell and it stops dead for a second. Rejigging the circuit takes a few minutes each time, letting you change things up in the middle of a series of races if you start to get bored. It took a little over five minutes to go from opening the box to winning my first race, a timespan compatible with impatient kids on Christmas morning. As with many toys, it may well be kids’ imaginations that are the magic ingredient here I am picturing six-year-olds spending all afternoon constructing elaborate courses on the floor before racing them in-game. You might wonder what the point of the toy car is if all you’re doing is looking at a screen anyway that occurred to me, watching the Switch conjure lightning bolts and weather effects and other things more exciting than what actually happens in my house. They drive fine on carpet or hard flooring, and on-screen you see a view from behind the character’s head, letting you guide the racer around the room. The RC cars, driven by a little Mario or Luigi with a little camera positioned behind their heads, are cute and sturdy, and happily withstood frequent collisions around my living room and kitchen and one run-in with the cat. That’s got to be some incentive to tidy up.) Parents, look at it this way: if the kids want to play Mario Kart Live, then the floor has to be clear. (This might sound horrifying to parents already struggling to beat back the endless tide of toys, crayons and abandoned shoes that engulfs the typical family living room, but look at it this way: if the kids want to play Mario Kart Live then the floor has to be clear. ![]() That circuit is then displayed on the Switch screen, and you could go the whole hog and build your own track on the floor out of blocks or cardboard boxes or empty water bottles or whatever else you have around the house as well. After folding out some cardboard arches and placing them down on the floor, you drive the kart through them to define the boundaries of the track. ![]() On the screen are all the things you’d expect from Mario Kart: power-ups, sandstorms that blow the kart around and make it harder to control, and other characters to race against. In reality, the car is zipping around on the floor, weaving between table legs and under cardboard arches. Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit is a “mixed-reality” game, meaning that what you see on the Switch screen is an enhanced version of what’s actually going on in your living room. Instead of confining all the action to a screen, this lets you race a little car around your living room, using a Nintendo Switch to control it. Nintendo’s latest experiment in the toy world, made in collaboration with Velan Studios, is an actual Mario remote-controlled kart that comes with a game. Find out once and for all if you truly are the best Super Mario Kart player.Mario Kart has been a family favourite since the early 1990s thanks to its potent combination of cute characters, speedy but simple racing and an array of red shells, banana skins and other eye-wateringly unfair tools of playful sabotage. Make no mistake: you will be testing out your driving ability on the F1 tracks and they do require a need for speed. With tracks named after some of the sport’s greatest drivers, this F1 mod will have you and your friends flying around some of the world’s most well-known courses.Ī fun mod for when you want to do away with the gimmicks and obstacles typical of most Mario Kart levels, and play in favor of minimalist race tracks. So fire up your SNES emulator because there’s a lot here to test drive! 15. ![]() Old-school graphics are much easier to mod so it’s no surprise that you can find well over 50 options for this game!īut to spare you the time of testing everything I’ve compiled my top picks for the best 15 rom hacks for this beloved retro title.
