Reviews for the highly anticipated Ghostwire: Tokyo have begun to roll out, and it looks like critics have plenty of nice things to say about Tango Gameworks' supernatural action-FPS. The latest Sony exclusive had gamers excited for it in the lead-up to this week, with many praising the game's trailers and gameplay showcases for its unique approach to combat and fleshed-out urban fantasy world. Ghostwire: Tokyo's Japanese folklore influences are also on full display, which has helped build hype as well.
Immersive Combat Trailer full movie hd 1080p
"Ghostwire: Tokyo has a unique combat system, fantastic narrative, and a recreation of its titular city that is intricate and immersive, even if it feels a bit empty at times. For those looking to binge the main narrative, it only takes four hours to complete the game's five chapters - however, the side-missions are well written, and players are highly encouraged to play through them to gain extra unlocks such as outfits and ability upgrades. Ghostwire: Tokyo exceeds expectations and to anyone that is even slightly curious about this game, it is well worth the time and money."
Crowsworn recently received a new trailer to mark the anniversary of the beginning of their Kickstarter campaign. The trailer revealed a lot of previously unseen footage, such as new enemies, bosses, areas, and gameplay mechanics. There were also a pair of beautifully unsettling animated cutscenes both at the start and at end of it.
The campaign was funded in less than three hours, and eventually reached every single one of its stretch goals. The devs describe the game as a "hand-drawn Metroidvania with a strong design emphasis on explorative platforming, immersive combat, and compelling storytelling."
'Oblivion' turns out to be a surprisingly good science fiction film. So good, in fact, I'm sort of embarrassed it took me this long to get around to seeing it. It's the kind of movie I wish Hollywood made a lot more of, and it's one I have a feeling is only going to grow in appeal and admiration as perhaps a bit of a cult classic in the years to come. It's one of Cruise's more admirable efforts in a career full of pretty good performances.
There are no front-loaded trailers on the Ultra HD disc; however, the Blu-ray is front-loaded with trailers for Fast & Furious 6, Despicable Me 2, Dead in Tombstone, Defiance: Season 1, and an anti-smoking advertisement. The main menu for both discs features a montage of footage from the movie, with the Blu-ray having the more-standard Universal design (with the curved left edge and menu selections running down the left side), while the Ultra HD has menu selections down the left top corner of the screen.
'Oblivion' was shot digitally primarily on RED Epic equipment and is presented here at an aspect ratio of 2.40:1. The 4K version of the movie is an up-convert from a 2K digital intermediate, and has received an HDR pass during its conversion to give the image deeper colors and contrast. Alas, this 4K image arrives on home video with a bit of debate about whether the 4K picture is actually any better than the previously released 1080p Blu-ray, which was pretty much a reference quality transfer for the format.
So, unlike many other 4K movies I own, in which there's an overall increase in both color depthness and details, the Ultra HD release of 'Oblivion' asks viewers to choose between a more detailed, sterile image in 1080p (on the Blu-ray disc) and one that is deeper in color/contrast (and honestly, manages to make the movie look a little more like film, despite its digital origins) in 4K. While I personally enjoy the 'warmer' look that HDR provides 'Oblivion', I can't really argue with those who would rather have the razor-sharp imagery in each and every scene that the previously released 1080p disc provides.
In Valley of the Ancient, the Light Dart and the Ancient One are both contained in the AncientBattle game feature. The basic systems that Echo needs to gain and use special abilities are already built into her base Actor, but the Light Dart provides a specific implementation of it. The Ancient One and other actors capable of responding to damage are also contained in this Game Feature, making the combat system fully encapsulated within this module. This feature's content is located in the AncientBattle Content folder. 2ff7e9595c
