TAKING A BREATHER
Back at the hotel, theres a noticeable buzz of excitement and
trepidation in the air. Fans of competitive COD are shocked
to learn that OpTic Gaming, largely considered to be oddson to win the tournament, have collapsed out of the Losers
Bracket after a thrilling game against Cloud9 though
that game was ultimately marred by reports of racist slurs
being thrown from OpTics fans towards Cloud9s Andres
Lacefield Lacefield.
That COD toxicity can be seen seeping into games all
across the weekend. During one particularly impassioned
round of Hardpoint, FaZe Clans James Clayster Eubanks
erupts from his seat, punching his screen and begins
screaming, These guys are trash, these guys are trash over
and over again, directed at the losing Team eLevate. Some in
the community find this behaviour intolerable while others
seem quick to shrug it off; we think its deplorable.
Elsewhere, streamers are hyped for Infinite Warfare
after a hard day of play, recording videos in the lobby
though a group of assembling eGirls outside are proving

Theres a lot of excitement at Raven, states studio
director David Pellas with a beaming smile, and we get
the impression thats something of an understatement.
Raven Software has spent the better part of five years in the
shadows. It has contributed to every Call Of Duty release
since Modern Warfare 3, though this is the studios first
opportunity to lead a project. And what a fine job it is doing.
In the last nine years, COD has evolved. Moving
between Infinite Warfare and Modern Warfare is like
stepping into a time machine. Infinite Warfare is complicated
and fun all at the same time, but Modern Warfare
Remastered is a simplified riot.
When we [took on the project] and created our general
rules and our guidelines, the number one design rule was
to maintain the integrity of the gameplay, continues Pellas.
We realised quickly that you cant mess with the gameplay,
[but] we wanted to make sure that we were making a game
that fits into todays world not a ten-year-old game that we
were just going to up the resolution of. Nobody wants that.
The fans wouldnt appreciate that.
Its difficult to believe that this was the game that
changed the first-person shooter for an entire generation;
Modern Warfare Remastered is a slow, simplistic shooter
by todays standards. This isnt a game where you can
wall run or you can double jump, Pellas reminds us. Its a
game based in reality. And thats true, to a certain extent;
it does seem more realistic when there arent any black hole
projectors or robotic dogs killing you from around
corners indiscriminately.
Raven has been careful to bring
updates to the game, across both
its single-player and multiplayer

Battlezone
If there is ever an
appropriate time to have
an existential crisis, we can
guarantee it isnt as youre
clambering into the cockpit of a giant
battle tank, as enemy vehicles approach
from all sides. But perhaps it speaks to the
killer job Rebellion has done here, showcasing
how easy it is to build and break immersion.
The scale of the tanks is wildly
impressive; the cockpit for each so lovingly
deigned and detailed that youll want to reach
and touch everything, though you cant, of
course dont expect Steel Battalion levels of
control over these hulking machines. Then, as
you approach conflict cycling through your
various weapon systems youll see cannons
and energy blasters lock into place outside
of the cockpit, crowding your peripheral
vision, and youll feel powerful. Powerful but
ineffectual, bemused even, because your
pilot doesnt have a body its a distracting
omission that never stops being strange.

Above: Its becoming clear that multiplayer gaming is whats going to keep virtual reality alive until 2017,
an area Rebellion has dipped its toes into. Battlezone supports four-player co-op, a fun way to waste
your time, so long as you have friends with the appropriate equipment to join you, of course.

Batman:
Arkham
VR
truly represents the very
best and worst virtual
reality has to offer its
promise and potential, the restrictions
and subsequent resentment that soon
follows. But as Rocksteadys masterful
creation so readily demonstrates, VR can act
as a gateway to another world; confidently
blurring our understanding of what is real
and what isnt. It gifts us the opportunity to
be swallowed into a life so far removed from
our own that the only applicable response is
to just stand there paralysed; trapped in a
state of silent of awe and appreciation.
The limitations are, however, as clearly
defined as the strengths themselves. For
virtual reality to be truly transcendent, it
seems, gameplay must becomes defiantly
rudimentary, confined to claustrophobic
spaces in aid of evoking emotional
resonance without making players ill.
This can manifest itself in a number
of ways interesting ways, but its when
the appropriate tools are handed to the
right team, one with a clear and critical
understanding of what makes a fictional
world and its inhabitants, its essence
work, that the results become truly
astounding. As such, Batman: Arkham VR
is a masterclass in navigating limitations.

Most will have played this great twinstick shooter in some guise or another,
and few will be surprised that the leap
to VR doesnt bring much in the way
of change. Its cool to glance around the planet as you track targets and the 3D
effects are neat, but its hardly a showcase for the new tech. That said, a new
Battlezone-like mode does let you take to the ground in a tank, which is
decent if limited fun in the short term.

LAUNCH TITLES
RIGS: MECHANIZED
COMBAT LEAGUE
PLAYSTATION VR NEEDED a
standout original title to launch alongside
it, and it has exactly that in RIGS.
Strapped into the headset, you really do
feel like youre piloting a mech as you
cane around arenas blasting enemies,
scoring goals and dunking on fools. Its
something you need to get used to as
the quick first-person movement can feel
awkward at first but once it clicks, its
simply incredible a clear PSVR standout
and a unique thrill not to be missed.
RIDGE RACER
ITD BE RUDE not to start at the beginning
for this, so lets return to Day One of PlayStation.
While there were only a handful of games
available at launch, Namcos port of arcade
classic Ridge Racer showed the world that the
new console was capable of delivering arcadequality experiences in the home, soon backed
up by the likes of Tekken and Dead Or Alive,
among others. RIIIIIIIIIDGE RACER!
THIS IS A bit of an odd one, but while PS3 didnt exactly have the best
launch, the rollout of PSN came with a handful of gems and this updated
fighter was the best of the bunch. Tekken has always been a big part of the
PlayStation experience and this enhanced and improved version of Tekken
5 almost made up for the failings of Tekken 4. Almost.

REZ INFINITE
MIZUGUCHIS CULT CLASSIC cant
seem to make its mind up it launched
on a Sega console, got ported to a Sony
one, saw an HD remake on a Microsoft
platform and is now back home on
PlayStation is definitive form. The trippy
rail shooter works better than ever when
youre isolated in VR, its thumping beats,
pulsing visuals and tight gameplay all
even better with PSVR. The newly-added
Area X is the star attraction, though a
brand new experience purpose-built for
VR and all the better for it.
LUMINES
REMEMBER WHEN DEVS used to be able
to get away with charging full price for a puzzle
game? Those were the days. Looking back, a
few of them were genuinely worth all that dollar
the likes of Super Puzzle Fighter II and Tetris
offer bottomless entertainment, and wed be
inclined to add this musical block-busting beauty
to that list. A light rhythm-action vibe and great
soundtrack made this a highlight of the PSP
launch, and we still play it to this day.
RESOGUN
PS4 HAD PLENTY of good games at
launch, but there was something of a shortage
of great ones. Trust twin-stick experts
Housemarque to deliver on that front Resogun
was the jewel in the crown when PS4 was
released, an exclusive arcade-style shooter
with deceptively complex visuals and gameplay.
Best of all, it was free to those with PS Plus
subscriptions. Which, given it was required for
online play on PS4, was a lot of us.

BURNOUT
RELEASE DATE 1 NOVEMBER 2001
Its hard to believe, but Burnout is already 15 years old. The game
largely responsible for refining and redefining arcade racing in the
modern era, join us as we return to this Criterion classic
What is it about jumping behind the wheel of an impressive
concoction of metal and mechanical engineering that
we find so damned appealing? All it takes is the roar of
an engine and the squeal of burning rubber to edge a
dangerous smile from ear to ear. Ease your finger onto the
trigger, feel yourself get thrown into the back of your chair
and before long youll become mesmerised by the world
whipping past you at 100mph; racing games have been a
cornerstone of the videogame industry since the Seventies.
They offer cerebral escapism, the opportunity to test drive
some of the most powerful man-made creations ever to
grace road and racetrack. But it wasnt until Burnout came
along back in 2001 that we were given the opportunity
nay, actively encouraged to meld an inherent need for
speed with destructive and dangerous tendencies.
Looking back at Burnout now, its still easy to see the appeal
and thats in spite of the washed-out polygons and questionable
framerate. But this classic inspired a decade of sequels because
56 |
SPLIT/SECOND: VELOCITY
Split/Second took Burnouts celebration of
destruction and ramped it up. A racing game
that takes place within a reality TV show, it
kept the adrenaline pumping by giving you a
host of environmental cues to trigger, causing
the environment to warp around the action.
DANGEROUS GOLF
Wondering where Alex Ward and some of the
other veteran Criterion developers are hiding?
They are at Three Fields Entertainment,
having just delivered Dangerous Golf a
chaotic mini-golf game where, youve
guessed it, destruction is key to success.
KEY
FACTS
The original
working title
for Burnout
was Shiny Red
Car, a name
used internally
at Criterion as
it hunted for a
publisher. Its
likely a reference
to one of the first
cars the team
ever built, a shiny
red Venom SX
which would
later become the
Sports Coupe.
Ever wondered
why Burnout never
looked good on
American NTSC
television sets?
Its because
Criterion never
had one to hand
and didnt realise
how image quality
or anti-aliasing
would be affected
by the change in
refresh rate.

8 CONSEQUENCES
OF GOING FULL
THROTTLE
The dangers of learning to drive via Burnout
n You dont win races by observing the rules of the road and that means youre
oen committing every driving offense in the book during your time with Burnout.
But when that timer is ticking away, when a checkpoint is in sight, the last thing
you have time for is stopping for a red light. In Burnout, Green means Go; Yellow
means Keep Going and Red means Go Even Faster.
Prison: N/A Fine: 1,000 Penalty Points: 3
n Burnout is all about driving fast really fast. In fact, if you dont drive fast youll
probably fail out of a race before youve had a chance to complete a single lap. With
a 70mph restriction attached to most motorways, that just isnt going to fly. Burnout
teaches you that speeding is the key to success, but taking the advice into the real
world can leave you in hot water with the traffic cops.
Prison: N/A Fine: 1,000-2,500 Penalty Points: 3-6
58 |
www.imagineshop.co.uk
n Do you remember that part at the start of Burnout where you have to go and get
a loan to buy insurance for your fancy new super car? No? Thats because it didnt
happen. Thats bad practice: it doesnt matter whether you are out for a Sunday
drive or re-creating Tokyo Dri in your local car park, always get insurance.
Prison: N/A Fine: 5,000 Penalty Points: 3-6
n Just because youve got yourself a license to drive a vehicle doesnt give you
license to run wild, nor will it give you permission to engage in illegal street races.
This is actually a crime itself: driving otherwise than in accordance with a licence. If
you can afford the car you can probably afford the fine, but the points always hurt.
Prison: N/A Fine: 1,000 Penalty Points: 3-6
n Do you know whats awesome in Burnout? Crashing. You smash into a vehicle at
speed and youre treated to a glory shot replaying the accident in slow motion from
a cinematic angle, teaching you once and for all that crashing your vehicle always
looks cool. But you never stop to report it thats no way to act on the real streets.
Prison: 6 months Fine: 5,000 Penalty Points: 5-10
n While youre oen driving with de precision in Burnout, it rarely observes the
rules of road. Between all the driing, mounting the pavement and speeding it could
be reasonably suggested that everything you do in Burnout could be considered
both careless and inconsiderate. Dont do that in real life, yeah? Good.
Prison: N/A Fine: 5,000 Penalty Points: 3-9
n Burnout is all about danger. Its about feeding your need for speed and proving
that you are the road king, building up your boost bar by driving on the wrong side of
the road, storming through intersections, purposefully near-missing other vehicles
and generally being a nuisance. Just an FYI, this is not looked upon kindly by UK
driving laws and will land you in a ton of trouble hope you like prison!
Prison: 2 years Fine: Unlimited Penalty Points: 3-11
n Look, if you T-bone a hatchback at 200mph, smiling gleefully as you study the
crash cam, watching as the other vehicle careers off into the distance there are
going to be consequences. Deadly consequences; youve most likely murdered the
driver. Now, not only have you dropped positions in the race, but youre also looking
at jail time. As it turns out, Burnout is not a very good teaching tool for young drivers.
Prison: 12 years Fine: Unlimited Penalty Points: 3-11

The core concept is simple and youll hear the one rule
you need spoken from the controller every time you start a
game. Save the last humans, it calmly advises, which you
do by grabbing the little green wandering dudes before they
get abducted by enemy ships and tossing them into a safe
zone. Bonus style points if you literally toss them, too.
But of course, its not that simple. The screen is pretty
much always full of loads of enemies and hazards, each
exploding into its component voxels when destroyed and
in time coating the floor of the stage in beautiful debris.
Trigger Armageddon by clearing a stage and youll get
to see this carnage explode around you in beautiful slow
motion. A classic arcade-style experience, Resogun is ace.

SKYRIM
Annoyingly, the
remastered PS4
version of Skyrim will
be playable on a virtual screen
while using the PlayStation VR
headset so we had to let Andy
have this on a technicality. We
wont be so kind next month

RIGS
It was overwhelming
at first but once my
brain (and body)
adapted to the pace of this
mech sports game, it quickly
became my favourite of all of
the launch titles. Dont worry,
Thumper I still love you too.
PAUL WALKER-EMIG
WAYWARD SKY
Im a big fan of
narrative-led games,
so this look-and-click
adventure had me intrigued.
Turns out its pretty good,
albeit a little on the simple
side. Still, it shows what can be
done with the genre in VR.

IF YOU LOVE
EIGHTIES CARTOONS
PLAY: TRANSFORMERS
DEVASTATION
It was free on PS Plus
recently, so youve got
no excuse not to give this
frenetic Platinum action
game a go. Its packed with
love for the source material,
plus it plays really well too.
SUPPORTING E-SPORTS
PLAY: STREET FIGHTER V
While some of the new DLC
packs might seem a little on
the expensive side, revenue
will directly contribute to prize
pools for major tourneys and
help keep the pro circuit going.
CHILLED EXPLORATION
PLAY: NO MANS SKY
Taken for what it actually
is rather than what it was
expected to be, Hello Games
endless space sim is a unique
and gentle delight. Dont let
the online hate deter you from
giving it a go for yourself.
