1UP writes: Most shooters try to break new ground, but Fracture does that, well, literally. Developer Day 1 Studio's third-person action gives you the ability to manipulate the environment anyway you please with the help of handy terrain-deforming weapons. Putting on a hardhat isn't just for show, though. The core gameplay in Fracture involves raising and lowering the ground to achieve certain goals. For instance, in the mission demoed for us, the player had to cross a bridge by raising rubble to prop it up. But fiddling with the ground isn't just used to solve puzzles.
Even though our demo was short, we definitely dug what we saw. The single-player looks like it will offer tons of variety in terms of using terrain deformation for getting through levels, while the game's online multiplayer seems like it will raise the fun even higher.
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.
