![]() ![]() In early 2014, Sony Interactive Entertainment research and development engineer Anton Mikhailov said his team had been working on Project Morpheus for more than three years. One application of this technology was in the game MechWarrior 2, which permitted users of the Glasstron or Virtual I/O's iGlasses to adopt a visual perspective from inside the cockpit of the craft, using their own eyes as visual and seeing the battlefield through their craft's own cockpit. Its first commercial unit, the Glasstron, was released in 1997. Sony's interest in head-mounted display technology dates back to the 1990s. On February 23, 2021, Sony announced that they had begun working on a PlayStation VR successor for the PlayStation 5. Īs of December 31, 2019, PlayStation VR has sold-through 5 million units worldwide. The headset also has nine positional LEDs on its surface for the PlayStation Camera to track 360 degree head movement. The headset also has a processor box which enables the Social Screen video output to the television, as well as process the 3D audio effect, and uses a 3.5mm headphone jack. The PlayStation VR has a 5.7 inch OLED panel, with a display resolution of 1080p. PlayStation VR works with either the standard DualShock 4 controller, PlayStation Move controllers or the PlayStation VR Aim controller. The PlayStation VR system can output a picture to both the PlayStation VR headset and a television simultaneously, with the television either mirroring the picture displayed on the headset, or displaying a separate image for competitive or cooperative gameplay. In certain games and demos for the VR, the player wearing the headset acts separately from other players without the headset. There are currently no PlayStation 5 games announced that support PS VR only PlayStation 4 versions of PS VR supported games can enable virtual reality on PlayStation 5. The PlayStation VR is compatible with the PlayStation 5 via an adapter that is shipped for free by Sony to anyone who has previously purchased the PS VR. It is fully functional with the PlayStation 4 and is forward compatible with the PlayStation 5 home video game console. The PlayStation VR ( PS VR, known by its code name Project Morpheus during development) is a virtual reality headset developed by Sony Interactive Entertainment, which was released in October 2016. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() What it has going for it is, as mentioned, that tactical focus, the unit variety, the fantastic historic videos (I’m a sucker for historic footage and this just took me back to the early days of Medal of Honour). Those non playable allied units basically just sit on the map and even though they are clearly listed as resupply or refuel units or locations… even if you move your unit up to them… there is no way to get them to help (or at least I didn’t manage to get any help from them).īut that is just a small irritation… Sudden Strike 4 has a few little irritations but they aren’t anything game destroying. ![]() Now I need to clarify there… you do have support units that can replenish you… but certain battles have non playable “allied” units. This again works very well making you feel like you need to careful plan your moves… but is a little frustrating when you have one of your own weapons or vehicles run out of supplies and you have allied resupply trucks or bases on the map, but you aren’t allowed to use them. Strategy will also play heavily in regards to ammunition and fuel, it’s all very well to commandeer an enemy gun emplacement… but if you just keep shelling a location, hoping to hit a target, you will find yourself soon out of ammunition and with no way to destroy the enemy armour when you do spot them. Troop types is something that you have quite a lot of here and as mentioned, they have their strengths (and weaknesses). It is likely to help hone your tactical skills too as you soon realise group selecting your troops will negate the benefit of individual units… units that will likely mean the difference between success or defeat at key moments of the battle ahead. Sudden Strike 4 enters the fray as an RTS, but there is not base building here… you have your troops allocated to you and other than the odd reinforcement… that is more or less what you have to work with.Īs much as it can be frustrating to not have access to a build cue that will provide you with fresh troops… it does arguably make for a far more “realistic” experience. That statement is pretty obvious but it must be heavily considered by developers when deciding to make a game as it means the competition is much greater than a totally new or even less used theme. Pit yourself against other commanders or challenging enemy AI enemies in competitive multiplayer modes.WWII is a well used theme for games.

It was the best selling game at the time of launch, but even 5+ years on from release, it can command a player count just shy of 10,000. Check it out on Steam here.ĭespite a rocky launch, Rome 2 has proven to be the most resiliant of all the Total War games to date. It even lets you customise your own clan, which is neat. ![]() After the intercontinental sprawl of Empire, it arguably played safe with this tighter focus, but built on all its predecessors to create the series’ richest core systems while adding a new level of aesthetic polish. Widely regarded as the series’ best game at the time – a status that was further burnished by Rome 2’s rocky launch – Shogun 2 returns to the 16th-century Japan setting of the very first Total War. Fans are not happy and started review-bombing the game on Steam, but that doesn’t detract from the fact that this game is the most strategically varied historical Total War to date. ![]() Sadly, Three Kingdoms’ story is coming to close now that Creative Assembly has announced it won’t be releasing any more Three Kingdoms DLC. It all serves a purpose: to inject a national war with the human drama of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms – one of China’s most important national stories – as dozens of scheming warlords vie for power after the collapse of the Han Dynasty. Warhammer’s influence is clear in its expanded character mechanics, strategic variety, and an achingly beautiful upgrade to the Warhammer engine, but Three Kingdoms brings plenty of innovation of its own, with overhauls to diplomacy and espionage.īuy now: Pick up Total War: Three Kingdoms today Three Kingdoms is the most recent and, some would claim, greatest of Total War’s core historical series. We don’t know the Warhammer 3 release date just yet, but what we do know is that it will feature Chaos demons, Kislev and Cathay – the first the time the mythical China-inspired faction has been brought to life. Warhammer II is nearing its twilight as we progress through 2021… so it’s a good thing that Total War: Warhammer III is coming. Unless you really prefer the original’s races, this is the place to start – but with a truckload of Warhammer 2 DLC and the ability to bolt on to the first game via the Mortal Empires campaign, you also have unrivalled options to expand your experience if you choose. Its core campaign features more outlandish races, a more colourful and expansive world map, and a deeper story told through gorgeous artwork. The sequel took everything the original did and turned it to 11. This is also one of the best Warhammer games to release in a long while.īuy now Total War: Warhammer II Strategy Fantasy Buy now In many ways it marked the beginning of Creative Assembly’s current era: the studio has never been so large or so ambitious as it is now. It took the series in a bold new fantasy-fuelled direction, varied faction mechanics at the strategic level more aggressively than ever, and redefined its aesthetic with a major engine overhaul. These are the best Total War games, in no particular order:Ģ016’s Total War: Warhammer changed the course of Total War. It is, of course, impossible to crown one single Total War game the ‘best’, because – especially since Warhammer – they do so many different things, with their various settings affecting the feel of their campaigns and tactical battles. So instead, we’ll walk you through what each of our picks does well and differently from the other games in the series, and why they may be regarded as ‘essential’ – beloved by fans and yet to be truly imitated by any other game in the series, or even in all of gaming. We’ve put together a list of the best and most essential Total War games, from Shogun to Three Kingdoms via the fantastical foray that is Warhammer. If you’ve ever been curious about this strategy games stalwart, look no further. There have been 14 games in that time – not counting mobile spin-offs or the cancelled and underrated Total War: Arena. ![]() That’s longer than iPhones, broadband, and most memes. So, you want to know about the best Total War game? Shogun: Total War released in June 2000, which means the venerable strategy series has been going for over 20 years now. ![]() ![]() )Īlso, the enemys don't have the patrolling state (this state makes then walking in a path marked on the floor). Maybe I can add the possibility that sounds echoing over unlocked doors only. The trouble is that guards don't need keys to open locked doors. In current state, If I enable the sound to go over doors, Is very possible to have a chain reaction, that makes ALL guards on the level comes at you. But they have a extra "sprite", called, "Deaf Guard", that I didn't add to the game (sorry). Ok, some people says about sounds that don't echoing over doors, the original wolfenstein echoes sounds in a area, with doors opened or closed. * Better AI - There is always improvements to be done! I add some extra features to the game, change some sprites and sounds. I'm working now in a "true save" system, that save your real state, not the one when you start the level like now. * Modified AI to act more like the original one, still a bit agressive. * Full Spear of Destiny Added (As episode 7), slight modified. ![]() :) I already release my pack of componentes on DelphiX/UnDelphiX forum for music/mp3/state control. I fixed some bugs, add new tiles and the Spear Item, that ends the level when picked. is hot!ĪrmoredChaos and Chaos Knight -> He looks like the Death Knight, but when defeated, the armor drops, and a mutant appear from inside. Also, new enemies to use on spear.įlameLord -> A lord (GunLord, WarLord) that uses a flamethrower. I take a bit more time, and add support to Spear of Destiny, a new "Episode 7" no new game menu. My next project will be a remake entirely using 3D of some old atari games. I write this game entirely from scratch, using Delphi and Dev-Cpp. Oh, my game isn't a mod, it's doesn't use any code from original wolf (but uses it's resources, and others resources found on lots of mods). These people are the creators of some tools that I use on my game. ![]() I just want to say thanks to "DieHard Wolfers", "AReyeP and MCS" and "Wolfenstein 3-D Dome", I know that these people now know my game, and I learn so much about wolfenstein in they site too. (so, any enemy can have it's drops customized. My version requires that you put a "item" on same place of the boss/enemy. The original wolfenstein have hardcoded to some bosses spawn a gold key or make you win the level. A missing Gold Key prevents you to finish the level. I found a nice bug on E6M10 (Secret Level of 6 Episode). If people really like it, I can release the source code of the game, and/or packages, and/or de map editor for it. ![]() I use some of my components here, the "NativeStorage", a Delphi component that holds streams of data by name - with support to save/load the entire data to disk/another stream. I already update the HUD, and change the music system (instead the huge mp3, now uses the original imf songs, emulated - tks Mame, your opl3 emulator is awesome).Įverything is more compact now, just the exe, a dll (my version of imfplayer.dll - tks WDC), and 4 datafiles. The engine have nice extra features, that you don't see on original game. I'm actually on a Beta Final version, there is some bugs left, missing sounds and maybe some maps have something wrong (since I import then from original game, there is some nice tricks that they used). UnDelphi圎x: A small extension package, with my own version of TDXMusic (play midi using DirectMusic and mp3 using DirectShow), a TDXStateMachine component (to manage states of the game, very good.)

![]() Barring one scene between Kumar and Kapoor in its final few minutes, the stakes in the film never feel high – definitely not high enough for us to care. Jolly LLB 2 is marred by a flaw far too common to mediocre Bollywood productions: It doesn’t sweat the small stuff and, as a result, keeps us at a distance. Kumar transforms into a hero by the third act, slapping a lawyer (Annu Kapoor) in court shutting him up by frequent retorts dodging the cops, with a convict in tow, with astonishing ease. More convenient plot points, some bordering on baffling, crop up, giving us little reason to stay with this film. Elsewhere, the film continues in a predictable vein. The various shades of his character – self-aware, cheerful, calm, strong-willed – make him endearing some of his lines, if stripped off their forced humour, are even heartfelt. Shukla though, after a few false notes (presumably an outcome of uninspired writing), is immensely entertaining and watchable. It’s as if you can imagine Kapoor snapping his fingers, pacing up and down in his office, thinking, “Okay, how can I make this film more funny?” Before another hearing, he’s fixing errors in his daughter’s wedding card (changing “goons” to “groom’s”, “wets” to “weds”). When a fight erupts in court, he hides under the table to protect himself. He places five gavels on the table, before one of the hearings, for “self defence”. ![]() He walks the court’s hallway, wearing earphones, dancing to a Bollywood number. The judge, Sunderlal Tripathi (Saurabh Shukla), for example, is first presented as a buffoon, his presence and antics often used for humour. This is, quite simply, lazy and shoddy writing, which takes the audience for granted, believing it will accept anything at face value.īesides, Jolly LLB 2 positions itself as a comedy, so enough attempts are made to mine its material for laughs. A small flashback shows the incident, but Jolly, without even conducting a basic investigation, couldn’t have known about its specifics. Jolly takes an important case, involving a senior cop and a terrorist, but gets convinced of his deceased defendant’s innocence just by flipping through his wedding photos. For instance, it’s tough to buy Jolly’s ultimate realisation, brought about by one dream sequence, one song, one heated exchange. Kapoor, who’s both written and directed Jolly LLB 2, frequently fails to make this film convincing and engaging. Jolly will win the case, restore our faith in the Indian judicial system and send us home.īut even the safe tropes of a Hindi mainstream film require some writing and directorial talent. Jolly’s fighting the case for justice, the rival lawyer for money. There’s not much scope for complexities here and that’s fine. The central conceit of the Jolly LLB films – of an ordinary corrupt man realising the inequities of society and fighting for justice – is fairly simple and idealistic, comprising elements that can make for an entertaining crowd-pleasing drama. It looks like he needs this film more than the film needs him. Kumar’s persona, however, often contradicts the character he’s playing. So Kapoor heightens the pitch he makes the new Jolly more witty, cunning and resourceful – qualities we associate with Kumar’s on-screen characters. He can’t romance heroines in picturesque locales or perform gravity-defying stunts (Shahrukh tried both in Raees and failed), but he still needs to command and drive his scenes. ![]() Like other Bollywood stars (Salman Khan, Shahrukh Khan and Aamir Khan), Kumar is no longer a young man. And director Subhash Kapoor ensures that. ![]() ![]() But here’s the difference: Jolly is played by Kumar, a Bollywood star, who can’t not be a hero. Jolly, like numerous men struggling in their careers, is ordinary. He’s a servile assistant to a famous lawyer in the city, commutes to work on a scooter and doesn’t earn enough to gift his wife a “Gucci” dress. Set in Lucknow, Jolly LLB 2 features a leading man, the eponymous Jolly (Kumar), who, at least on the surface, has no hero-like qualities. The obvious difference between Jolly LLB and its ‘spiritual’ sequel Jolly LLB 2 is the inclusion of a star in the franchise, Akshay Kumar. ![]() ![]() ![]() The basic gameplay is organized similarly to the previous two games in the series, and consists of elements from the third-person shooter and driving games, providing the player with a large open-world environment to navigate. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is an action and adventure game with role-playing and stealthy elements. GTA San Andreas Ultimate Trainer Download ![]() The next major entry in the series, Grand Theft Auto IV, was released in April 2008. San Andreas has migrated to many other platforms and services, such as OS X, Xbox Live, PlayStation Network, and mobile devices (iOS, Android, Windows Phone, and Fire OS). In June 2018, the game was added to the Xbox One Backward Compatible library. A redesigned HD version of the game was released for both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in 2015. In particular, the player-made software patch, called “Hot Coffee mod”, triggered a formerly hidden sex scene. The game’s violence and sexual content have been a source of public concern and major controversy. Like its predecessors, San Andreas is cited as a landmark in video games for its far-reaching impact within the industry. It was the best-selling video game of 2004, and with more than 27.5 million copies sold worldwide as of 2011, it is the best-selling PlayStation 2 game and one of the best-selling video games of all time. Wide range of activities, mini-games, and embedding of slot games.Ĭonsidering it to be one of the greatest video games of all time, San Andreas has received critical acclaim, with praise for its music, story, and gameplay, and criticism for its graphics and some aspects of its controls. Unlike its predecessor, San Andreas brought with it new elements of gameplay that would later be incorporated into future titles, including RPG-style mechanics and customization options with all of the clothing, vehicle, and set looks. The game features references to many elements of real-life in the world, such as its cities, regions, and landmarks, as its plots are based largely on many real-life events in Los Angeles in the early 1990s, including the rivalry between real-life street gangs, and the crack epidemic of the 1980s and early The 1990s, the LAPD Rampart scandal, and the Los Angeles riots of 1992.
