On the XBox, both Fracture and The Force Unleashed front-load easy achievements, boosting your gamerscore right in the first hour. It's starting to feel like a bribe.
Many times you'll need to plant a grenade precisely to solve a problem; a targeting system like the one used by Gears Of War would have been a big help.
Indie games often have better success with clever game mechanics, because they can't tack on millions of dollars of boilerplate third-person shooter play. Instead of echoing Portal, Fracture is more like Prey.
YouTube’s ‘John GodGames Emus’ has shared some video showing Jurassic: The Hunted, Chaotic: Shadow Warriors and Fracture running in the latest DirectX 12 version of the best Xbox 360 emulator, Xenia. These games came only on consoles and the first two titles appear to be playable in Xenia.
"ZL: The reception was less than underwhelming. Fracture is one of those games that has already been forgotten; “terrain deformation” failed to impress gamers, the struggle between the Pacificans and the Alliance (though I’m not sure who they’re aligned with) inspired no one, everyone hated the main character and the online servers are host to nothing more than tumbleweeds."
We're well into the first week of August, and the summer's hottest days could be just ahead. There's still a debate being waged over climate change policies proposed to help curb its effects, but in some video game that debate is over and the effects of climate change lead to a bleak future. We speak to Dr. David Robinson, New Jersey State Climatologist and Professor in the Department of Geography at Rutgers University, to find out if these video games' vision of a post climate change future holds more fact or fiction.
Wow. This is an incredible read.
I will be voting up the article and the site. Thank you for submitting this!
Well written, thought provoking and intelligent. Great job to Steven Wong.
the game would have been better as it has lots of potential! instead, they limited the potential of the game thus making it NOT AS GOOD!
