Wes Fenlon In Dwarf Fortress Ive seen the circle of death and rebirth. Its less of a game, more of an ambitious simulation, representing the complexities of existence in ASCII.

Syfy features science fiction, drama, supernatural. Shaun Prescott You dont even need to play Dwarf Fortress to marvel at its achievement. Hell, the patch notes are a marvel of their own. Shadow Tactics Blades of the Shogun. RELEASED 2. 01. 6 LAST POSITION New entry. Fraser Brown In Shadow Tactics, every infiltration of an enemy palace or compound is a puzzle overflowing with obstacles. A temporary Independence Day celebration in Watch Dogs 2 was suspended early on July 4 because it was enraging too many people who still play Ubisofts late 2016. Around this time last year, my mom passed away. I was in charge of planning her funeral and burial arrangements, dealing with her stuff, and pretty much all the other. Critics Consensus Body of Lies relies on the performances of Russell Crowe and Leonardo DiCaprio to elevate it beyond the conventional espionage thriller. Last month, internet service provider Cox began charging residential customers in Arizona, Louisiana, Nevada, and Oklahoma an extra 10 for every 50 gigabytes of data. Being sneaky is fun. Being murderous is better. Planning the demise of the games guards is a singular delight. Im a fan of the ol tanuki distraction methodthe little critter distracts a guard by being adorable while one of my ninjas pounces on him from a roof. Shadowrun Dragonfall. RELEASED 2. 01. 5 LAST POSITION New entry. Jody Macgregor Its funny that one of the few games to get cyberpunk right is also one with elves in it, but Shadowrun reduces fantasy and cyberpunk to their essentials while emphasising whats best about both. Dragonfall is basically Baldurs Gate 2 with turn based combat set in near future Berlin, where hackers and samurai raid corporations and watch a talk show hosted by a dragon. Its as great as it sounds. Watch Body Of Lies Online Fandango' title='Watch Body Of Lies Online Fandango' />FEARRELEASED 2. LAST POSITION New entry. Andy Chalk Combat in FEAR is magnificent chaos. Glass shatters, dust billows, and sparks, paper, and body parts fly in loud, explosive gunfights against some of the finest, most believably real AI ever created for an FPS. Enemies flank, they take cover, they chatter and they toss grenades with infuriatingly good timing and accuracy. But what I love most about it is the way it weaves a genuinely horrific tale through all that action, breaking up the manic combat with intensely disturbing stretches of creepiness and a few moments worthy of any pure horror game. Andy Kelly I reinstall FEAR at least once a year just to experience that amazing shotgun again. Every shooter has its own unique shotgun, but theres something immensely satisfying about the one in FEAR. How it violently kicks back when you fire it, and the exaggerated way enemies tumble when you shoot them in slow motion. Im not usually one for fetishising weapons, but Ill make an exception here. Steven Messner Speaking of fetishising guns, how can we not talk about the 1. HV Penetrator, the gun that fires giant steel stakes and crucifies enemies against walls I get that FEARs shotgun deserves a lot of praise, but to me the Penetrator is one of the greatest guns of all time. Its the perfect weapon to use against FEARs ragdoll enemies. I used the gun so damn much that I feel like whoever had to go through after me and clean up all the dead bodies probably suffered some pretty severe trauma from seeing hundreds of people nailed to cubicle walls. Grim Fandango Remastered. RELEASED 2. 01. 5 LAST POSITION New entry. Tom Senior Manny Calavera is one of the coolest heroes in PC gaming, and he happens to live in one of the coolest worlds in PC gaming. Its a vibrant take on the afterlife, and a great place to set an epic noir love story. Even after all these years Grim Fandango is funny and is still worth everyones time. Play it and enjoy the jokes. Andy K I love it when you explore Rubacava in year two. Reading beat poetry at the Blue Casket, listening to Glottis play the piano in Mannys casino. Its like stepping into a classic film noir, albeit one populated by skeletons and giant bees. Metro Last Light. RELEASED 2. 01. 3 LAST POSITION New entry. Shaun It seems wrong to describe a FPS set in a decrepit metro network as beautiful, but Last Light manages it. Between the often unforgiving combat and the light but rewarding survival elements, this sequel manages to tell an engrossing tale which isnt at odds with the relentless violence involved. Samuel Roberts Probably my favourite apocalypse in gamesits realistically dour, yet still gorgeous and unsettling. Spider Web. RELEASED 1. LAST POSITION New entry. Jody This is a free text adventure that begins as a story about a guileless tourist, then frames that as a cover invented by a spy under interrogation, then continues switching between the game you play and the interrogator interrupting to say, Thats not what happened Each flashback gets closer to a truth you the player wants to learn, but you the protagonist want to hide. Its clever, twisty, and explosive. Nuclear Throne. RELEASED 2. LAST POSITION 7. 4Wes Perhaps the greatest use of Early Access as a model for development, Nuclear Throne is a punchy top down roguelike shooter honed over nearly 1. Like the best games of its type, what seems like a simple setup collect powerful guns, survive randomly generated levels as you progress to a final boss fight belies hidden stages and characters and secrets to give you the upper hand. The roster of heroes gives you so many different ways to play. Im partial to the samurai Chicken, who can briefly survive without his head, and the noob friendly Crystal, who can reflect bullets. But the real reason to play this over other roguelikes is how great the action feels. It nails that rhythm of explosive action, bullets and enemies flying towards you, with brief moments of respite as you inch towards whatevers around the corner. Action anxiety perfected. Nidhogg. RELEASED 2. LAST POSITION New entry. Tyler Wilde The best sickly looking fencing game there is, Nidhogg speeds up the mind games and finesse of Street Fighter, chaining tiny, rapid duels between stabby pixel people into hilarious, constantly tense tug of war sessions. Joe Donnelly Dont let appearances fool you beneath the modest veneer lies a deep and engaging versus mode masterpiece. Be it tactful fencing, aerial karate kicking, sword javelin tossing, or turning tail and runningtheres a strategy for everyone as you push your stick figured foe back one screen at a time, spawning at either side as you die and regenerate, regenerate and die. Nidhogg also comes with a less enjoyable singleplayer mode that can be wrapped up inside half an hour. Often hilarious, but equally known to bring out the competitive streak in any payer who enters the fray. Be prepared to lose friends over this one. Knights of the Old Republic II The Sith Lords. RELEASED 2. 00. 4 LAST POSITION New entry. Fraser Everything Star Wars about it is subverted. The result is one of the most interesting yarns in the franchise, peeling back a lot of the fantastical elements of Star Wars and exploring them. Samuel Roberts As I watch the new films I feel like theyre not showing us anything we havent seen before. Perhaps thats because Ive been spoiled by KOTOR II, where theres more nuance in the portrayal of the force and memorable characters. Wes The buggiest game Ive ever completed, even with the essential fan patches. Still worth it for Kreia. You Dont Understand Sucker Punch Film. Editors Note You likely know Adam Quigley thanks to his contributions to the Filmcast, and for his occasionally argumentative stance on popular films. His most famously contrarian opinion may be the defense of Zack Snyders 2. Sucker Punch. So what better subject could there be for Adams first foray into breaking down a topic on video Well have more video dissections from Adam in the future, but lets begin with an examination of Snyders movie one that is occasionally as vitriolic as the film itself. You think Sucker Punch doesnt have thematic substance. You think it doesnt have character depth. You think it doesnt have a single sensible thought in its pretty, dumb superficial body. Youre wrong. Find out why after the jump. In this inaugural episode of Antisocial Commentary, Adam takes a second stab at deconstructing the emotionally rewarding twist ending and thoughtful hidden meaning of Zack Snyders unduly reviled box office disappointment Sucker Punch, both of which have gone unrecognized for too long.

AUDIO TRANSCRIPT Contrary to popular opinion, Sucker Punch is not a stupid movie. You can hate it for whatever reasons you like, as most critics did upon its release including but definitely not limited to Rolling Stone, Fandango, the BBC, io. TIME, Entertainment Weekly, CNN, the Chicago Tribune hell, even Quentin Tarantino singled it out as being one of the worst films of 2. But having read all the reasons so many prestigious journalists have condemned the film to cultural irrelevancy, I can confidently state that they dont know what the fuck theyre talking about. Hopefully though, with a little time and perspective, people will reevaluate what the film is about and what it has to say, and will learn to appreciate it as one of the most misunderstood films of the decade. But that probably wont happen, so why dont I just explain the whole fucking thing. Sucker Punch is a fantasy. Yeah, I know, no shit. What I mean to say is, the entire film is a fantasy. There is no part of the movie that exists in the real world, and this chick Baby Doll, as shes called is NOT the main character. The movie is really about Sweet Pea. Everything that happens in the film is a reflection of the internal struggle of Sweet Pea, the catalyst for which is her being lobotomized. And for the sake of clarity, Zack Snyder was even kind enough to throw this kid into the mix. He first appears during the wartime fantasy scenario, and then again getting on the bus. Sweet Pea takes note of him both times, for no other reason than to tell you that NONE OF THIS IS FUCKING REAL. Baby Doll, meanwhile, is the physical embodiment of Sweet Pea a sad, pouty lipped object of mens affections and desires. Shes the guardian angel that Sweet Pea conjures up to deal with having a really shit life. Thats why shes narrating the film instead of Baby Doll. So all that stuff we see with Baby Doll during the first act of the film thats Sweet Pea acting out her past trauma in her mind, just as she was taught to do in the mental institution. This is also why the film opens on a stage a direct parallel to how Sweet Pea is acting out that same trauma on a stage when Baby Doll first arrives. Then comes the lobotomy, which is the key to everything that happens in the film. Reimagined through Baby Doll, Sweet Pea disassociates from reality just as that needle plunges into her brain, retreating into her mind in the same way shes taught to by Dr. Gorski. This is also what happened in Sweet Peas real life, and the effect of that lobotomy is the movie. Yep, Sucker Punch is the result of a lobotomy just one big, weird subconscious coping mechanism for a girl to find peace in spite of the tragedy thats befallen her. This time around though, Sweet Pea is able to interrupt the lobotomy, intruding on her own story. Shes even able to repurpose the accidental killing of her sister into a deliberate and necessary sacrifice on her sisters part to save her. And heres where things get meta. In this second layer of fantasy, Sweet Pea imagines herself and the rest of the girls working in a brothel, objectified and lusted after by an audience in the most overt manner possible. This mirrors us the actual audience tuning in to see these girls perform for us in skimpy school girl outfits and tight leather and other assorted smutty get ups. This connection is made clear from the films very first scene, which lets us know that were the audience watching all this unfold on stage. By choosing to watch the movie, we are complicit in everything thats happening. This isnt to say that the movie is some lamely sanctimonious session of finger wagging meant to condemn you for wanting to see sexy nubile girls kicking ass. What Sucker Punch is really about is the difference between exploitation and empowerment. This is depicted through three layers of fantasy, each exploring a different set of social values, each aligning with different phases of the feminist movement. First up is a grim incarnation of the 6. That gender inequality is amplified in the second world the brothel which takes us back even further, to a time when women were literally treated like property. And finally we have the pop culture world the world of today which imagines Baby Dolls erotic dancing through various aspects of modern geek culture, dressing the girls up in all the typical fetishistic attire weve come to expect from comics and video games and TV and movies and so on. Sweet Pea is aware of how sick this is, and rejects that Baby Dolls dancing could possibly be empowering. Its only through seeing its effect on men does she start to see how much power they really have, as the girls start taking back the control theyve lost by using mens objectification of them to their advantage. By embracing their sexuality instead of fearing it, they learn that their inherent femininity can be better used as a means of holding men under their sway. Suddenly, its the men who become helpless instead of them. Point being, men may be in a position to physically overpower women, but women have the power to psychologically overpower men, thus inverting historys long standing power dynamic between men and women. Leatherface Online Putlocker there. This is then mirrored to very much the same effect in the action fantasy scenarios a symbolic gesture on Zack Snyders part to show women taking back geek culture, which men have been dominating with their boy club mentality and pervasive misogyny for far too long. This is demonstrated further once we cut back to Baby Dolls lobotomy, after Sweet Pea has found peace. While Sweet Pea is busy imagining that shes taking the magic school bus to a better, more idyllic world, Blue has plans of his own. But its too late shes already escaped, even if its only mentally. Sweet Pea sacrifices her body Baby Doll and retreats into the comfort of her own mind, a paradise over which nobody has control of but her. Blue may have control over her body, but she doesnt let that make her a victim without her mind, he has nothing. The importance of this is also apparent during Baby Dolls encounter with the High Roller, who recognizes that the choice to truly be with someone lies with you and you alone. Weve come a long way since the 6. Sucker Punch is a testament to that. Its an indignant, rebellious fuck you to the sexual control and resulting sexual repression of eras past, encouraging girls to embrace and flaunt their sexuality however they please. As the scene with the High Roller reaffirms, the distinction between exploitation and empowerment all comes down to personal choice.
