High above Threshold, this gas mine is similar to the facility occupied by Sesa 'Refumee's faction. Scans of the gas mine were collected by the UNSC Red Horse during its survey of the Soell system following the Battle of Alpha Halo.

[lonestatus]

thinking about the console wars has got me remembering how we fought... thinking of dropping playstation the way i just want my ex backs. want to say halo to you again. my horizon is zeroed in on memories and it dawned on me that i should've treated you better... how i was selfish and ruined the last of US. now our relationship is just a ghost. like tsushima. left in the shadow of the colossus that was our relationship... uncharted 2.

[hellyjumper]

Halo 2 solo customs was my JAM, in the day. Being slightly too young to appreciate actual multiplayer, I got to soak in the lore of the maps in my own way: made classic Halo memorable and special.

yeah, man, i have a lot of appreciation for the work and the detail that went into them, and I still get nostalgic about it. esp for this one, Colossus:

I spent a lot of my time here playing around with the explosive containers and the conveyor belts. turns out you can do a lot of silly things with that combination.

also, remember Terminal?

the moving train fascinated young me at the time, and even now I think the concept is just really neat. I wish we'd gotten Midship / Ivory Tower style remakes in later titles.

"Game dengan Grafis Terkeren: Menyaksikan Evolusi Visual di Dunia Gaming"

Dunia game telah mengalami transformasi luar biasa dalam hal grafis selama beberapa dekade terakhir. Dari piksel-piksel sederhana pada era 8-bit hingga realisme yang menakjubkan di game modern, evolusi visual dalam industri ini bukan hanya soal keindahan, tetapi juga tentang menciptakan pengalaman imersif yang mendalam. Artikel ini akan membawa kita menjelajahi game-game dengan grafis terkeren yang tidak hanya memukau secara visual, tetapi juga mendefinisikan ulang cara kita memahami dan menikmati permainan.

1. Era 8-Bit dan 16-Bit: Awal Mula Grafis

Pada tahun 1980-an, game pertama mulai muncul di konsol seperti Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) dan Sega Genesis. Meskipun grafisnya terbatas pada piksel sederhana, game-game ini menyuguhkan daya tarik tersendiri. Game seperti Super Mario Bros. dan The Legend of Zelda menunjukkan betapa efektifnya desain sederhana untuk menciptakan karakter ikonik dan dunia yang memikat. Desain pixel art ini masih dihargai hingga hari ini, memunculkan genre indie yang mengedepankan gaya visual retro.

2. Grafis 3D dan Revolusi Permainan

Masuk ke tahun 1990-an, game mulai beralih ke grafis 3D dengan munculnya konsol seperti Sony PlayStation dan Nintendo 64. Game seperti Final Fantasy VII dan The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time menunjukkan kemampuan teknologi 3D untuk menciptakan dunia yang lebih dalam dan karakter yang lebih kompleks. Teknologi ini memungkinkan penciptaan lingkungan yang dapat dieksplorasi dengan bebas, membawa pengalaman bermain ke level yang baru.

3. Pencapaian Visual di Era PlayStation 2 dan Xbox

Pada awal 2000-an, konsol seperti PlayStation 2 dan Xbox membawa peningkatan signifikan dalam kualitas grafis. Game seperti Shadow of the Colossus dan Halo: Combat Evolved menampilkan teknik rendering yang lebih maju, tekstur yang lebih detail, dan efek pencahayaan yang realistis. Shadow of the Colossus, khususnya, dikenal karena dunia terbuka yang luas dan arsitektur raksasa yang menakjubkan, menciptakan pengalaman bermain yang imersif dan emosional.

4. Era HD dan Realisme yang Mengesankan

Dengan peluncuran konsol generasi ketujuh seperti Xbox 360 dan PlayStation 3, industri game memasuki era HD. Game seperti Uncharted 2: Among Thieves dan God of War III menampilkan grafis yang sangat realistis, dengan detail yang memukau pada karakter dan lingkungan. Teknik seperti motion capture digunakan untuk menangkap gerakan pemain, menjadikan karakter lebih hidup dan relatable. Selain itu, penggunaan efek visual canggih, seperti efek cuaca dan pencahayaan dinamis, menambah kedalaman visual yang menakjubkan.

5. Revolusi Grafis di Era PlayStation 4 dan Xbox One

Generasi konsol selanjutnya, termasuk PlayStation 4 dan Xbox One, menghadirkan dunia game yang semakin mendetail dan realistis. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt dan Horizon Zero Dawn adalah contoh luar biasa dari grafis yang memukau, dengan lingkungan yang sangat luas dan detail yang mengesankan. Dalam Horizon Zero Dawn, setiap elemen, mulai dari flora hingga fauna, dirancang dengan teliti untuk menciptakan dunia pasca-apokaliptik yang menawan. Selain itu, Red Dead Redemption 2 membawa realisme ke tingkat yang lebih tinggi dengan grafis yang sangat detail, animasi yang halus, dan atmosfer yang mendalam.

6. Menyongsong Era Grafis yang Lebih Canggih: Ray Tracing dan Realitas Virtual

Saat ini, teknologi grafis terus berkembang dengan hadirnya ray tracing, yang menghadirkan pencahayaan dan bayangan yang lebih realistis. Game seperti Cyberpunk 2077 dan Control menunjukkan potensi luar biasa dari teknologi ini, menciptakan pengalaman visual yang mendalam dan imersif. Ray tracing meningkatkan kualitas grafis dengan menciptakan pencahayaan yang dinamis dan realistis, membawa pemain lebih dalam ke dunia yang diciptakan.

Sementara itu, realitas virtual (VR) memberikan pengalaman gaming yang benar-benar baru dengan grafis yang menakjubkan. Game seperti Half-Life: Alyx membawa pemain ke dalam dunia virtual dengan detail yang mengesankan, memungkinkan interaksi yang lebih mendalam dengan lingkungan. Pengalaman ini tidak hanya menonjolkan kecanggihan grafis, tetapi juga menciptakan pengalaman bermain yang sangat imersif.

7. Masa Depan Grafis dalam Gaming

Melihat ke depan, masa depan grafis dalam game terlihat cerah. Dengan kemajuan dalam kecerdasan buatan dan teknologi rendering, kita mungkin akan melihat evolusi lebih lanjut dalam visual game. Game yang akan datang diharapkan dapat menawarkan detail yang lebih tinggi, efek fisika yang lebih realistis, dan interaksi yang lebih mendalam dengan dunia virtual. Dengan adanya tren ini, pengembang game memiliki potensi untuk menciptakan pengalaman yang semakin mendalam dan memikat bagi pemain.

Kesimpulan

Evolusi grafis dalam game adalah cerminan dari kemajuan teknologi dan kreativitas tanpa batas dalam industri ini. Dari grafis piksel sederhana hingga visual yang memukau dan realistis, perjalanan ini menunjukkan bagaimana cerita dan pengalaman bermain dapat diperkuat oleh desain visual yang canggih. Dengan setiap generasi baru, game tidak hanya menjadi lebih indah untuk dilihat, tetapi juga lebih mendalam dalam hal narasi dan gameplay. Seiring dengan terus berkembangnya teknologi, kita dapat menantikan pengalaman bermain yang semakin imersif dan memikat di masa depan. Game bukan hanya tentang bermain; mereka adalah seni yang berkembang dan terus bertransformasi, menyajikan visual yang tak tertandingi dan pengalaman yang tak terlupakan.

The Best Games of 2007 | Gaming Has Matured

This project has been a lot of fun. I didn't realize it, but I've been subconsciously making these lists for years. When looking at year-by-year groups of games, these top 10s have been jumping out at me. So, 2007 is already here and it's without a doubt the best list so far.

Remember, (I say as if anyone is reading) this post will be written as if it were published in Dec. of 2007, so all critiques will be from that perspective. LFG!

#10 - Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction

Ratchet games have always been some of the best games in its respective genre. Tools of Destruction is no exception. It builds on the chaotic nature of its predecessors, brings the Lombax into HD, and adds a much-welcomed cinemax spin to the story. A surprisingly serious Ratchet & Clank was not a thing I saw coming, but in the end, it was more than welcomed.

#9 - Halo 3

This year we "finished the fight" and despite its low spot on this list, Halo 3 was a triumph. Being #9 on a list of absolute bangers, says much more about the overall quality of the list than it does about Halo's appeal. Halo 3 is the best in the series so far, it's bigger and better than the first two in every way and is further proof that Xbox Live is the hottest thing in gaming right now.

#8 - Uncharted: Drake's Fortune

The developers of Jak & Daxter traded in their cartoony platformer card for an Indiana Jones/Lara Croft-inspired adventure game named Uncharted. The story is cinematic and over-the-top, it's one of the most beautiful console games ever made and it just might be the PS3's first must-own title. It's got some technical hiccups here and there, but nothing is stopping it from being the belle of the Playstation 3's ball this year.

#7 - Rock Band

Harmonix has done it again. The makers of Guitar Hero have leveled up the experience and built a full-band rhythm game. Quality control issues aside, the Rock Band instruments are the best the genre has seen thus far. That means no more loud clicky guitars. The drumming experience they've built is the most pick-up-and-play thing I've seen since last year's Wii Sports. They even allow you to sing the songs on its fantastic songlist. A list that can grow with purchasable songs in the DLC library. I played A LOT of Rock Band this year and I don't see that stopping anytime soon.

#6 - Assassin's Creed

Ubisoft Montreal's spiritual successor to Prince of Persia is the sleek and captivating Assassin's Creed. Using deep world-building, high-concept sci-fi, and a charming historical context, Assassin's Creed pushes gaming forward in both narrative and technical ways. Like Uncharted, gameplay can get clunky from time to time and Altiar's climbing mechanics sometimes feel broken. Assassin's Creed may not be perfect, but it seems important and that's even more than Ubisoft was even asking for.

#5 - God of War II

As the PS2's last hurrah, GOW2 only had to be better than its predecessor. The game ended up being much more than that. God of War 2 is the full realization of what Sony Santa Monica was trying to do the first time around. It's fast-paced, sharp, stressful, and rewarding. Kratos' story is more compelling, and his murder spree is more bloody. The combos are tight, and boss fights are epic. The opening scene is a level-long battle with the Colossus of Rhodes and that experience will stick with me for years.

#4 - Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

Activision has rewritten the rules for what a war video game can be. Modern Warfare is visceral, unsettling, and fascinating. By taking a Tom Clancy-esq approach to modern warfare, and sprinkling in a pinch of sci-fi, Infinity Ward paints the possibility of the world ending with such a clear picture that it is hard to not be emotionally affected, especially at the game's notorious climax. On top of that, the perks system introduced in multi-player has revolutionized the way players experience FPS deathmatches. Just when you thought war games were getting stagnant, COD4 blows the box wide open.

#3 - Super Mario Galaxy

Coming off the odd Gamecube title Super Mario Sunshine, the 3D Mario games needed a serious boost both conceptually and qualitatively. Super Mario Galaxy is a nearly perfect game. It has boundless whimsy, surprisingly intuitive controls, a stunning presentation, and the cleanest gimmick in gaming today. Running around planets and jumping from one to another with gravity physics makes Super Mario Galaxy feel like a new genre. It threads the needle of feeling welcomingly familiar, while still feeling like a new idea. Galaxy is the only Wii game on my list this year and it's far and away the best Wii game of 2007.

#2 - Portal

Speaking of important video games, Portal is transformative in ways I don't think we're even aware of yet. As a puzzle game, a first-person narrative showpiece, and an atmospheric comedy, Portal is unlike anything we've ever seen in the mainstream game space. Valve is having a moment right now and I don't think any other developer could have given us this tightly crafted, and weirdly quirky Portal game. They could have gotten away with a straightforward portal-based puzzle game that simply invents a game mechanic and then exploits it for 4 hours. Instead, the devs weave a hyper-charming world into the fabric of that mechanic and make a truly unforgettable experience. The cake may be a lie, but the brilliance of Portal is not.

#1 - Bioshock

"Gaming Has Matured" is the name of this list and Bioshock is the strongest proof of that. Movies can transport you into a world you've never seen before and Music can spark your imagination in beautiful ways, gaming creates experiences. Bioshock is an experience. Never has a digital world felt so well-realized as Bioshock's Rapture. The underwater terror den littered with deadly splicers and the brutal and unrelenting Big Daddies set a mood that MUST be experienced. On top of that, the mythology of Rapture's rise and fall is unrivaled. Philosophy, the folly of man's hubris, techno-art-deco, every aspect of Bioshock is carefully crafted to make the story as compelling and believable as possible. The 3rd act plot twist is nothing short of spectacular. Bioshock is a masterpiece and creates a brand-new benchmark for narratively driven first-person shooters.

Notable Omissions

Crysis - Crysis got a lot of attention this year for its top-tier graphics and even toppier tierer technical requirements. I played it and other than its visual prowess, it's a pretty basic FPS. Not bad, but not list worthy.

The Orange Box - This might be the best bundle package in gaming history, but putting it on this list is like saying a band's greatest hits is their best album. That's cheating. Spotlighting the most impressive part of the package (Portal) is the right way to go.

Mass Effect - I'm not an RPG guy. I hear it's good, and maybe I'll play it eventually, but RPGs aren't my bag.

Ok! 2007 was one of the best years in gaming ... ever. I can't wait to talk about the next one.

Cheers

Why Resident Evil 2 is an incredible remake

Remakes don’t have the best reputation in gaming. In the eyes of many gamers, they’re something of a plague on an industry that seems content to perpetuate rather than innovate. There have been examples of fantastic remakes of classic titles like Halo: CE Anniversary, Shadow of the Colossus or the plethora of Pokemon do-overs in the form of FireRed, HeartGold, OmegaRuby and others. However, the…

[maiosx]

Videogame Question Time

Who is the number one person in the game industry and why?

Kiana Kaslana. Has the best character design, best story arc, follows god, has a gun and a sword, has an evil avatar too.

Who is the second?

Seele from Honkai Impact 3. Most powerful character in the game. Stronger than Kiana and Mei.

What is the strongest vehicle in the entire game industry?

The sub in GTA Online.

What is the strongest character with non magical attributes?

Doom guy.

Who composed the best soundtrack in a video game?

Shadow of the Colossus

Who is your favorite character?

Sam from Metroid Prime or Raiden Mei.

If you could change any videogame storyline what would you do?

Half Life 2 Ep 2 Alyx’s dad dies and they don’t have a person to give her directions in HL 3 so they never made it… I would’ve changed it to the combine just trap him or something instead and doggo has his coordinates but Gordon has to fix him bc he gets injured by the combine when her dad gets taken and he tries to help him then they fight g man and it ends with him telling them they created black mesa to fight gladOS and the aliens were their friends bc gladOS was trapping Cave Johnson’s employees underground so Gordon would have to infiltrate their base with Alyx to try to stop her and that’s what causes the beginning of Portal 2 where the whole place has collapsed bc in the end of the game Alyx would have a baby with Gordon but Gordon and Alyx run out of food and die but that baby is the prisoner that gets out of the Portal 2 chambers and sends Wheatley to the moon which then triggers half life 4 where he and the bad aliens there form a pact and they come back to earth and now Alyx’s baby is fighting the combine and the aliens at the same time and in the end she wins by infiltrating black mesa and stealing the dna of the zombie crab aliens and using it to make stronger and smarter aliens than them.. so it becomes like alien warfare that eventually becomes halo 2 but only the covenants story arc and you end up realizing that master chief was against the prisoner of portal 2 and say nah fuck Microsoft and that’s the ending of Half Life 4 bc Gabe Newell worked there and I’m pretty sure that would be the best ending and reason they actually created Halo… to compete with Valve but the main reason he created that game and never finished it was bc those are probably the correct storylines to HL3 and HL4.

What is your favorite videogame and why?

Sky children of the light, has a social system that should exist on social networking platforms so we wouldn’t feel harassed by community members or like randos.

What is your favorite videogame memory?

Sakura Miko playing Pokémon on the Switch and she finally gets a pink one she’d been being wanting for days. She was crying and screaming it was running to her and fell asleep by her.

What do you think about the videogame industry as a whole?

I don’t like it. I think Valve publishes good titles and so does Apple but Microsoft and the rest of them have like bad boy status to upkeep and it’s like Todd from Bethesda fucking up Fallout 76 Online just to say yeah we made this online game you can drop props in.. like nobody was asking for that. Skyrim with mods was good but it was good bc it had enb shaders and good looking clothes with like 4k textures and nexus support. Fallout with Forge creator was not and nobody that made that game understands the roleplay aspect of games.. like you will not have ppl RPing dying in a wasteland in the 1950s… that’s weird but ofc ppl would roleplay The Witcher series or Cyberpunk.. Todd from Bethesda is weird and those MS ppl bought a weird studio too.

Lore Thursday - Colossus

The HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark II [J] Armor Defense System is a massive combat exoskeleton fitted with a long range railgun and a 20mm autocannon.

During the UNSC Spirit of Fire's ongoing fight against the Banished on the Ark, at least one Colossus was used by Sunray 1-1 during Operation: SPEARBREAKER in their efforts to halt Colony's plan.

Meet & Greet - Axel

✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧ The Basics ✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧

*.·:·.✧ Name ✧.·:·.*

Axel! Sometimes I get called Ax or Axe as well, mostly as a joke/nickname ^^

*.·:·.✧ Age ✧.·:·.*

19 ish

*.·:·.✧ Pronouns ✧.·:·.*

He/Him/His/Himself

Ber/Baer/Baers/Baerself*

*This is similar to they/them pronouns, however each sounds like "bear" with a different spelling. Example: Ber went to the store for baer groceries because they are baers and could get them baerself. Bad example but it shows the gist I think

*.·:·.✧ Gender ✧.·:·.*

Demiboy is probably the closest fit!

*.·:·.✧ Orientation ✧.·:·.*

Androsexual

*.·:·.✧ Species ✧.·:·.*

Human!

✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧ System Info ✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧

*.·:·.✧ Role ✧.·:·.*

None, as far as I'm aware of right now. Something related to confidence or mood?

*.·:·.✧ Family ✧.·:·.*

I consider Avalanche and Calypso to be my parents! Wash and Felix feel a little bit like uncles to me which is also pretty neat!

*.·:·.✧ Other relationships ✧.·:·.*

Liam is probably my closest friend since we bond a lot over music and composition! Though sometimes we do debate music when we have a difference in opinion (never a true argument though)

✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧ Extras ✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧

*.·:·.✧ Likes ✧.·:·.*

I am a huge fan of star wars!

Alternative music is super cool! I love the dark/somber atmosphere it can give off

Some of my favorite game soundtracks are from Shadow of the Colossus, God of War, Destiny (1 and 2), and Halo. I don't play some of these anymore but god the music makes me so happy

I'm not the biggest fan of horror games but I can definitely appreciate the atmosphere they can create and worlds they can build.

*.·:·.✧ Dislikes ✧.·:·.*

While I like music, country music does not make that list

Thunderstorms with lightning and way too much rain

Most insects creep me out to an unhealthy degree lmao

The room being too warm, because cold rooms are and always will be something I cherish and enjoy

ending note: I think it's important to mention that I do not consider myself as a POC and I never will. While I have darker skin in the inner world, we are collectively white and nothing will change that or the fact that we will never experience what POC do on a day to day basis. Calling myself that wouldn't be correct, period, since the body is white and therefore only has the lived experience of being white. I hope that makes sense

What the fuck is irredeemable media? I thought it was The Turner Diaries and Nazi shit but people are saying Steven Universe is irredeemable? Classic literature?

The hell are they smoking?

Yeah, "irredeemable media" is basically just another purity culture term. It basically just means "anything and everything I don't like" at this point.

[savior-of-humanity]

since ive been kinda working on some verses as of late for chief, heres my current list of verses for chiefo! they’re under the cut; also i actually have a blog dedicated to just verses for my muses but right now all i have verses for is chief so..yeah

HALO

Light of the Covenant - After being captured by Covenant forces, the Chief has been brutally brain-washed and corrupted into becoming one of their strongest and most terrifying agents. An Arbiter of sorts, meant to be disposable and yet serve as a shining beacon for the Great Journey.

Metal Over Flesh - After a horrific accident, the Chief’s life could only be saved by using a drastic measure that hadn’t even been properly tested on humans yet - by transferring his brain and consciousness into a new body, one of metal and wires instead of flesh and blood.

Code Over Flesh - After a horrific accident, the Chief’s life could only be saved by using a drastic measure that hadn’t even been properly tested on humans yet - by transferring his consciousness into an Artificial Intelligence.

A Monument to All Your Sins - Chief has been infested by the Flood. But for reasons unknown, he has survived the infection and hasn’t been converted into a Combat Form - but he still hears whispers of the Gravemind trying to manipulate him.

Moonblood - Chief has been bitten by a unusual furred creature. However, the bite isn’t without its’ own terrifying side effects.. such as him occasionally turning into a werewolf.

Wrath of the Colossus - After being successfully captured alongside Blue Team by Cortana in the Cryptum, the corrupted AI (assuming it is even Cortana at all in the first place) decides to implant Chief into a Forerunner war-machine reminiscent of a Guardian so that he may witness first-hand of her actions to help bring “peace” to the galaxy - starting with Earth. However, he manages to overthrow her actions and effectively eject her out of the systems, but with a terrible side-effect. Now wracked with intense agony due to having no AI to aid in controlling the machine, he goes on a almost mindless rampage, trapped within layers upon layers of Forerunner alloy and machinery.

Infinite Horizons (Post-Halo 5/Halo Infinite) - Any series of events that occur after the events of Halo 5: Guardians. Will be updated in the future as accordingly to suit whatever plot Halo: Infinite will have.

In Absentia (Halo 5: Guardians) - The Chief and Blue Team have gone AWOL in search of Cortana. Any series of events that occur during the events of Halo 5: Guardians.

Awakening (Halo 4) - The Chief has awoken from cryosleep, only to find that the ruins of the Forward Unto Dawn are in orbit of a mysterious Forerunner world. Any series of events that occur during or after Halo 4.

Behold a Pale Horse (Halo 3) - The Chief must stop the Covenant’s goal of activating every Halo installation in the galaxy. Any series of events that occur during Halo 3.

Impend (Halo 2) - The Chief must fight the Covenant directly on Earth, and foil their plans to activate another Halo installation. Any series of events that occur during or before Halo 2.

Dust and Echoes (Halo: Combat Evolved) - After landing on a mysterious ring-world, the Chief must stop the Covenant from activating the ring and potentially killing all life in the universe. Any series of events that occur during Halo: Combat Evolved.

Forward Unto Dawn (Pre-Halo: Combat Evolved) - Any series of events that occur before Halo: Combat Evolved.

OVERWATCH

The World Needs Heroes - Chief has ended up in the Overwatch universe, somewhere around the year of 2076 after the collapse of Overwatch (or before that time). He is likely to join or help Overwatch/the remnants of Overwatch in some way.

Project: HADES - Chief has ended up in the Overwatch universe, somewhere around the year of 2076 - but Talon has found him. They converted him into one of their most powerful and terrifying agents known to Overwatch - a monster known only as HADES.

EVOLVE

Monster Hunter - Chief has been deployed to the outer colony world known as Shear, to deal with a problem of Insurrectionists attacking and destroying various colonies and towns on the planet. Except it’s not Insurrectionists killing people… but giant, inter-dimensional creatures hellbent on killing and devouring everything in their path.

Goliath Among Men - After a nearly fatal encounter with one of the inter-dimensional creatures attacking Shear, the Chief is infected with some of the monster’s DNA, causing him to gradually mutate over time…and become more monster than man.

ALIENS

Emperor - After an encounter with some sort of parasitic, spidery alien, the Chief has just narrowly survived the rather explosive emergence of a horrifying parasite living inside of his body. But now there’s monsters on the loose, and apparently the parasite did more to his body than just tear its way out of him..

DOOM

Hell’s Champion - Chief has been dragged into the very bowels of Hell itself. But instead of doing something as simple as taking his soul, the daemonic forces decided to turn him into one of their greatest champions and pawns, to serve their eternal campaign to assimilate all worlds and dimensions.

Feet First - Chief has been sent to retrieve a Forerunner artifact from Storm-Covenant forces known simply as the ‘Ring of Armok.’ However, it turns out that this artifact is actually a gate holding Hell itself back - and they’ve just opened it…

STARCRAFT

Ultimate Evolution - After an encounter with a terrifying biological hivemind-entity known only as the Zerg, the Chief has been infested - made into a terrifying warrior to serve the Swarm.

UNDERTALE

Fallen Down - Through unknown means - whether it be falling into a great chasm at the top of a mountain or being ripped through time and space - Chief has ended up in the Underground, a civilization where Monsters have been trapped and living for a unknown length of time.

Photon Readings Negative - The timeline of this strange world apparently has not taken kindly to the Chief’s presence. His body, mind and SOUL are at risk of being thrown into flux by the timeline - forced to either ‘conform’ to the energies of the timeline, be ejected…or destroyed entirely.

Darker, Darker, Yet Darker - The timeline has destabilized the Chief to the point where his body has melted, becoming an horrifying amalgamate..of himself and the dark memories and nightmares lingering in his mind, threatening to pierce the veil of his sanity. Though he is no longer at risk of being destroyed or ejected into the void.

GODZILLA/MONSTERVERSE

Clash of the Titans - After being exposed to intense radiation from the resulting conflict between Rodan, Mothra, Godzilla, and King Ghidorah in Boston on Earth, the Chief’s DNA begins to mutate rapidly - resulting in him transforming into a 50-meter monstrosity code-named by the sub-division of ONI known as Monarch, “Titanus Maledict.”

Halo Wars 2 gameplay: HAHA COLOSSUS AND BASES GO BRR

[thegamecollection]

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER DEATH, ANOTHER FORMAT.

As with any console exclusive at launch, there are disgruntled gamers who play on the other teams that miss out on some truly exceptional titles. Games like HALO, Uncharted, The Last Of Us, Shadow Of The Colossus, Final Fantasy VII and Spider-Man all spring to mind... And that wasn’t me having to dig very deep.

Deathloop may not have been on EVERYONE’s list when it was confirmed exclusively for PS5, but with Arkane Lyon getting a lot of (Prey)se, it seems they’re now (Dis)honored 2 deliver it on Xbox Game Pass for you Microsoft fans too! We really built that up, huh.

Just in case you’re uneducated on this Groundhog-Day-with-guns looper shooter, well, yeah we’ve just explained it perfectly right there. Then again, “perfectly” would suggest that Bill Murray’s in this picture... Sadly he ain’t. Instead we get two rival assassin’s stuck inside one deadly timeloop. Colt, that’s us, is tasked with eliminating 8 targets in a 24 hour period in order to break said loop and get off the island of Blackreef for good, all while being hunted by rival assassin, Julianna. She’s not friendly.

“If at first you don’t succeed, die, die and die again.”

Yep, each death is something to be learned from as you uncover clues on your targets as well as the island itself. Don’t die in vain, die and gain! That’s our motto.

With some epic reviews on the PlayStation front, for you Game Pass heads it’s worth a punt! You’ve had the scoop now go break the loop. Rhyming’s done now have some fun. Has anybody seen my gun? Etc.

If you wanna get physical then you can grab Deathloop on PS5 for just £18.95 right here at The Game Collection!
