![]() It should sell at least 10-20mn units, and for many people it will be the first device that let them experience VR, so there will be some nostalgic attachment. ![]() The Quest 2 actually has a better chance to gather a cult following, as Meta announced that it will be available for a long time. The Go neither sold in huge numbers nor for a long time, so there is no large community of fans that could keep it alive and possibly create new tools. Unity already dropped Go support with Unity 2019.4. The problem with Go development is that the tool chain is much more complex, and e.g. I’ve written C64 games in 6502 assembler myself, and it is astonishing what is achievable on what is basically stone age hardware. The old demo scene worked pretty much on bare metal, meaning they ignored the operating system and created demos addressing the hardware directly. I sort of wished this would happen, but it is somewhat unlikely. When the N64 and Donkey Kong Country SNES were introduced, there were ten times as many SNES out in the wild than there are Quest 1 and 2 combined today, so there was a much bigger incentive to still support the aging console. It is just questionable if anybody will bother. The Quest 1 still has a lot of unrealized potential, heck even the Oculus Go has never been fully utilized. The pre-rendered graphics looked much better than what the N64 could have created in 3D realtime, but it was a very impressive demonstration how you can make a game for a technically inferior platform look next-gen by applying a lot of tricks and optimization. Rare, the developers of Donkey Kong Country had access to one, and used it to create all the graphics in a 3D modeler, giving the game a very modern and unique look.Įverybody simply assumed that this was a N64 game, and there was an audible “wow” when Nintendo revealed that this was the SNES version. As Silicon Graphics had developed the graphics chip for N64, a development kit required using a SGI workstation. While they described the 3D capabilities, they had a video of the upcoming Donkey Kong Country for SNES running in the background without telling anybody what it was. There is an anecdote from the press conference where Nintendo announced the N64. You can wishlist the game on the official store page to be reminded when it launches.Īlong with the announcement of the Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond release date next week, we also got a clearer look at the Quest 2 version of the game thanks to new screenshots: Unfortunately cross-play multiplayer is not supported. Oculus has confirmed cross-buy with the Oculus PC version, so if you already owned the game there you’ll be able to play on Quest 2 for free. Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond will support Quest 2 but not the original Quest. The game will launch with a reduced priced of $40 (compared to the $60 PC VR version). The release includes the full content of the PC VR version of the game, including the campaign, multiplayer mode, and the live-action WWII documentary series that was produced in conjunction with the game. ![]() Oculus today announced that Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond has November 15th release date on Quest 2. Cross-buy is confirmed, meaning players that bought the game on Oculus PC will own the Quest 2 version as well. Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond, first launched on PC VR headsets last year, is coming to Quest 2 next week.

The last time the Saucony Ride came without the ISO moniker was the Ride 10, which hit the market in 2017. “They felt responsive to me from the very beginning.”Ī few things have changed when you compare the Saucony Ride ISO 2 and the Ride 13-one of the most notable changes being in the name. “These are flexible enough to feel natural and stiff enough to give them pep right out of the box,” she says. I didn't feel like I needed more cushion at heel strike or toe off.”Īnother tester liked the just-right balance of stiffness and flexibility. “A good, consistent balance of responsive cushion from heel-to-toe. “I felt like my heel-to-toe transition was fast,” he says. Even for one reviewer who typically chooses shoes with more cushioning, the Ride 13 works. The Ride’s level of cushioning sits between the featherweight racing-style Saucony Kinvara 11 and the max-cushioned Saucony Triumph 17. “The Ride is responsive enough to make those quick steps feel more powerful instead of feeling like I’m fighting sand.” “I felt really good running hills,” he says. One reviewer says the Ride 13 felt great for cruising on flat roads and for powering up steep hills. It cushions each step but responds quickly enough for a nimble feeling. Saucony’s PWRRUN midsole is both soft and responsive. Two things make the Ride 13 one of the best Saucony running shoes: comfort and versatility. “Something about the extra stretch and smooth, round laces make an even cinch even easier,” she says. One tester says the laces improved the ease of lacing up her shoe as well as the overall midfoot fit. Saucony’s laces give the shoe a more dynamic fit that allows the upper to move with your foot without feeling too loose. One subtle (but appreciated) feature about the Ride 13 is the slightly stretchy, tubular shoelaces. “I cinched down the laces and found a really secure fit without any problems.” “It’s cushioned and comfortable, so it’s a great pair of running shoes for beginners,” one tester says. A little bit of extra padding in the heel collar and tongue lend the shoe a soft step-in feel. Reviewers say the accommodating fit and classic lacing system make the Ride 13 feel approachable for long workouts and new runners.Ī one-piece engineered mesh upper covers the Ride 13, which is smooth inside and out. The extra hole gives you the option to use different lacing techniques, like marathon lacing, to lock down your heel or just get a more comfortable overall fit. Saucony threaded the shoelaces through five eyelets along each side of the shoe, and they included a sixth at the top to let you customize your laces. He says he stopped and tightened the laces, which solved the problem. One Fleet Feet reviewer with an average-width heel says he felt a little bit of slippage when he started running. It also comes in wide widths for runners who need even more space.Īn internal heel cup creates the structure that helps lock in the fit. The Ride 13 feels spacious in the midfoot and forefoot, giving it plenty of room for a wide range of foot shapes. Fortunately, Saucony found the right balance of comfort and performance. The Saucony Ride 13 is a shoe designed for everyday training, which means it has to be comfortable to handle the bulk of your miles. ![]() I killed him and looked around – it was just carnage. Everyone was dead except one Legion assassin. So I was like this sleepyhead late riser. “Because this is late-game, there are NCR heavy troopers out there with machineguns and power armour, and all the people that are there are NCR allied, so they’re fighting alongside the NCR troopers. I go up and find these Legion assassins have caught up to me. ![]() All of the mattresses are down below, so I rest there, and I wake up and hear all hell breaking loose – people are dying, body parts are falling over the side of the bridge. Late in the game, you have to go to the Eldorado Substation for something, and I went to the 188 and rested. “So they were just hovering on the east side of the map. “I had these Legion assassins after me for a long time, and I was just never in a part of the map where they could get to me,” Sawyer recalls. In a simulated world like New Vegas’s, though, even a seemingly simple rule like that can have unforeseen results.įall further: Our pitches for the best potential Fallout 5 locations One of these rules stopped NPCs from following you into New Vegas proper, making the bright lights of the irradiated gambler’s paradise feel like a safer haven. In an attempt to cut down on the times where these emergent moments turn from funny anecdotes into annoying interruptions, Obsidian crafted some rules. “It was like ‘Holy shit, dude, how did you get in here?’,” he says. When Malcom showed up, Sawyer was completely taken by surprise, it being one of the unexpected consequences that comes with leveraging Bethesda’s engine. Bethesda’s tech allowed us to do a lot of stuff we haven’t been able to before.” ![]() “So you can have bounty hunters tracking you, you can have guys obsessed with bottlecaps following you, you can do all sorts of stuff like that. “Bethesda’s engine allows you to mark a character as persistent, which means they can be active no matter where in the world the player is,” Sawyer tells me. The NPC, Malcolm Holmes, had trekked across the Mojave desert for this chinwag, like some die-hard post-apocalyptic pilgrim. But, unfortunately, his viewing was rudely interrupted by a tap on the shoulder – an NPC really wanted to talk to him about bottlecaps. Lead designer Josh Sawyer wanted to see how it looked for himself once it was finished. Obsidian put extra effort into making this sequence look, sound, and feel as good as possible. Once you have gathered the supplies needed to fix the missile, you are treated to a cutscene of the rocket blasting towards the sky, backed by Richard Wagner’s rousing classical song, Ride of the Valkyries. One of the most memorable quests in Fallout: New Vegas is called Come Fly With Me, where you launch a rocket from the REPCONN test site. Real-time strategy presents a fascinating and challenging genre for artificial intelligence. And now after 25 years, Electronic Arts has published this remastered collection by working alongside Petroglyph Games, the studio famous for RTS titles such as Star Wars: Empire at War and the 8-Bit Armies series, which was founded by ex Westwood developers after EA bought the studio in 1998, only to later shut it down and merge it into EA Los Angeles in 2003. 1992’s Dune II: The Building of a Dynasty established a format and style that would define the genre for many years, with Blizzard releasing Warcraft: Orcs and Humans in November of 1994 and Westwood doubling-down on their own style and philosophies with the release of the inaugural Command and Conquer in 1995, with Red Alert appearing on the market one year later. However, Westwood is largely known for its work on PC titles and sits alongside Blizzard Entertainment as the architects of the real-time strategy game. Founded in 1985 as Westwood Associates, before being renamed in 1992 during a merger with Virgin Games, the studio achieved early success with games developed on a variety of platforms such as the Amiga, Atari ST, Commodore 64, Apple II and Nintendo Entertainment Systems. Defining AI for RTS GamesĬommand and Conquer and its creators Westwood Studios are two names that carry a tremendous legacy in the video games industry.

It wasn't really meant to be related to Ridge Racer. Ridge Racer Unbounded started off as an unrelated prototype for what would've been a new IP by Bugbear. ![]()
