![]() ![]() That level of depth was never possible on a flat TV, but the experience is much more dynamic here it feels like Fantavision was always meant to be a VR game. ![]() I can see individual strands zipping past me, putting me in the actual center of the show. When I trigger a Starmine bonus round, colorful explosions shoot out right in front of my eyes. VR makes those spaces much more immersive, as I actually feel like I’m flying through the night rather than following a camera panning through a background.Īnd of course, the firework display itself turns into a spectacle in 2D space. Early levels take players on a guided tour over a city, but levels quickly get a little weirder as the fireworks show moves to outer space. Each stage takes place over a skyline that the camera slowly moves through on rails. While the visuals aren’t terribly detailed, that’s another area where the tech is a natural fit. Image used with permission by copyright holder When I’m in my flow state, I feel like a conductor crafting a visual symphony with my own hands. That tactile element is enough to entirely change the psychology of the core Fantavision experience. Controls are much more natural with PSVR2, as players can freely move their hands with the Sense controllers to highlight colors. When playing on a TV, flares are connected by moving the joysticks around, which always felt a little stilted in the original. However, it’s a completely different experience in VR. Its $30 price tag seems a little high considering how slim the package is. Fantavision 202X can be played without a headset, but you’d get pretty much the exact same experience that way as you would simply playing the original on PlayStation Plus. Even its simple visuals are a bit of a throwback to the PS2 era. The new version is almost identical to the original, from its eight-stage single-player setup to its virtually unchanged gameplay. I’ve already found myself chasing its Platinum trophy as I work toward its various milestones. There’s an immense satisfaction that comes from getting a combo over 100 or detonating an enormous chain that lights up the entire screen. The sequel includes a set of very clear tutorials that have significantly improved my skill. When I first played the PS2 version, I understood the basic matching system, but couldn’t fully grasp its “daisy chain” system. It’s the definition of an “easy to learn, hard to master” game. ![]() Explosions will set off flares of the same color too, so there’s a lot of extra strategy in when to detonate, as that can keep a chain going. Advanced strategies require players to create massive flare chains by looping a new color with neutral “wild” flares and items. ![]() Match three flares of the same color up, press a button to set them off, and watch them light up a city skyline. It’s a level-based puzzle game where players have to match colorful flares as they shoot up into the night sky and detonate them to create a fireworks display. Never break the chainįantavision 202X isn’t so much an evolution of its predecessor as it is a VR remake. It’s a prime example of what kinds of games thrive in VR, standing in bright contrast to more ambitious projects that have struggled to replicate a full-on console experience in a headset. Cosmo Machia has taken a somewhat average puzzle game and made the best version of it without changing much at all. What stands out most about Fantavision 202X, though, is how much it’s quietly enhanced by VR. ![]() ![]() For the most part, this devotion comes from a place of love and respect, but nevertheless, it's impossible to satisfy the wants and needs of a community on a universal level. Video game players are passionate about what they like and do not like across the board, but strategy fans are among the most decisive and determined communities I've ever had the pleasure of chatting to and playing alongside. The obvious complication of leaning heavily on players when sculpting the short and longer-term plans of game development, of course, is that you cannot please everyone. Here we are now, it's been a long road, but I think everybody believes this was the right thing to do, to get the player council in place, and to make Company of Heroes more appealing to more potential players, but also just to offer more for players to stick with and to keep playing for longer and to stay engaged with." People pleasing "We tried a number of things, and then we said: 'We know we want a strategy experience that's bigger, and it has a different style of strategy. ![]() "That process took a long time, and it wasn't just a direct path to where we are now," says Ryan. Ryan says it was during the latter end of this timeline that Relic and publisher Sega began looking at the series as a whole: where it had been and where it may go next. Compared to the original game – which received multiple Game of the Year accolades in 2006 – Company of Heroes 2 didn't quite hit the same heights, despite being supported years into the future with its Western Front Armies and Ardennes Assault DLC packs. It's an intoxicating mix, and it's something Relic has spent a long time refining. Creeping ever-closer to your goal is a great feeling, and every death feels like your fault and never an arbitrary punishment on the game's part. Like old school Company of Heroes – and the military RTS hits it drew inspiration from before it – each failed mission fuels a desire to start again, and again and again. "Developing video games in silo is something we've recognized does not work for us, so co-development has been hugely important to Company of Heroes 3." How does developer Relic Entertainment plan to succeed? By leaning heavily on early feedback delivered by a pre-established council of modders, and competitive and casual players. "The idea of co-development with players, I think that's now an essential initiative in everything Relic does as a company moving forward," says Sachin Ryan, the lead single-player designer for Company of Heroes 3. With an ardent desire to satisfy strategists who enjoy competitive multiplayer and single-player campaigns alike, Company of Heroes 3 revives the series almost a decade on, and is likewise its most ambitious undertaking to date – helping propel it to one of our most anticipated new games for 2023. Company of Heroes breathed new life into the well-established and somewhat waning military RTS scene in 2006, before Company of Heroes 2 breached the scene in 2013. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It is a known fact that your system will track everything you do on the computer whether you like it or not.

The player can complete only as many lines as possible, before an inevitable loss. : 16 The game never ends with the player's victory. At the end of each game, the player receives a score based on the number of lines that have been completed. ![]() If the player cannot make the blocks disappear quickly enough, the field will start to fill when the pieces reach the top of the field and prevent the arrival of additional pieces, the game ends. It is possible to complete up to four lines simultaneously with the use of the I-shaped tetromino this move is called a "Tetris", and is the basis of the game's title. The player can clear multiple lines at once, which can earn bonus points in some versions. In most versions, the speed of the falling pieces increases with each level, leaving the player with less time to think about the placement. Completing lines grants points, and accumulating a certain number of points or cleared lines moves the player up a level, which increases the number of points granted per completed line. When a line is completed, it disappears, and the blocks placed above fall one rank. : 4 The objective of the game is to use the pieces to create as many complete horizontal lines of blocks as possible. The player can neither slow down the falling pieces nor stop them, but can accelerate them, in most versions. During this descent, the player can move the pieces laterally and rotate them until they touch the bottom of the field or land on a piece that had been placed before it. Tetris is primarily composed of a field of play in which pieces of different geometric forms, called " tetrominoes", descend from the top of the field.

The decision to commute the sentence of the 67-year-old Stone, who was convicted of lying to help the president and set to report to prison on Tuesday, was loudly celebrated by some in Trump’s orbit as a triumph over deep state prosecutorial overreach.īut the move announced Friday evening came over the advice of a number of the president’s senior advisers, who warned him it would be politically self-destructive to reward Stone for his silence. He remains a convicted felon, and rightly so.” Mueller himself spoke out - a rarity for the former FBI director - in an op-ed posted Saturday by The Washington Post in which he defended his investigation as “of paramount importance” and added: “Stone was prosecuted and convicted because he committed federal crimes.
