So it coincided that this month three promising studios debuted at once. First came the reckless Arcade Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. – A Reckless Disregard for Gravity from Dejobaan Fames, then – curious, albeit condo Darkest of Days from Bmonkey Labs. But the third newborn arrived – Twin Sector from DNS Development. Another successful debut (although this is not the only project of the developers, but the first truly ambitious, “serious” game) or barely operated on the chick that undertook to reach the middle of the Dnieper?

Mysterious corporation and all-all-all

So, the load has begun. Well, while the game collects all the resources in a fist, we will deal with something useful. Pour, for example, the dictionary of the plot cliche. Section “Main Hero”: “Painted man or a slender lady” … “Amnesia” … “Unhealthy heroism”. O-pa, what the technique has reached! We have on the monitor screen-a video-illustration for a vocabulary article: a pretty girl, amnesia with her, and even, they say, saved the people from death in due time. Well, okay, a dictionary – on a shelf until better times. And now the Oscar’s computer program from the game will tell us what is happening.

It turns out that cramped gray corridors and empty rooms around are not a prison for clicked characters (and it’s a pity! We hoped so much!), and the underground complex. Here the few survivors hid from the consequences of the next armored man. And so that the guys do not freeze and do not die out, the volunteers froze them and left them through cryogenic chambers. And now, while everyone is sleeping, especially the harmful someone decided to warm the “scumbags” with the warmth of his soul and ruined the equipment. The security system-the same Oscar-hastened to defrost the inhabitants of cryogenic cameras, but for some reason only our heroine-Ashley Simms or just ninth woke up. The rest, therefore, is destined to stay in ice coffins? Damn with two! As soon as the Oscar finishes her report, the girl has a couple of minutes on duty sorry for the poor, and then sets off – towards the long -awaited exploits. Well, it would be nice to save people ..

“Development of games for beginners”

What is Robinson Corporation – the owner of these wonderful catacombs? We believe, with a daring espionage. Judge for yourself: they slammed the motor from the engravipushka at the Freeman himself, screwed it to the nano -butter – the “original” invention turned out. It is not a sin to make a game around such a thing and the game. And what? Maybe the truth is not a sin?

“Ba, what people! Portal Valvovich, is it you?” – mentally we ask. “Yeah … the clone is unfinished,” he answers silently and shases his eyes Twin Sector, While Glados meticulously compares himself with Oscar. Yes, it turned out badly … as if an envious artist pulled paint and the best canvases from the teacher, and forgot to grab talent. In Portal, we can evaluate the humor of sarcastic Glados, in Twin Sector -Only indifferent to listen to the cold-filled reports of Oscars. Portal – praise for an unusual atmosphere of a sterile laboratory, TS -endlessly scold for faceless gray-brown corridors. It is just right to release the level editor – only the original slogan come up with. As you like, for example, this: “Card editor TS Copy/Paste! Now even a schoolboy can make a game!”?

The kingdom of barrels and drawers

“Think, design! You look at what gloves I have, what puzzles!” – objects Twin Sector and throws us in heaps of physically correct trash. The amplifier was attached to the magic mittens, therefore, unlike Half-Life 2, we can not only attract/repel objects, but also help the weak heroine. We fell from a great height-jump over the ground and save fragile bones, decided to climb back-we will throw up a thin body ninth to some pipe.

True, it is difficult to call the scruff of a percentage of forty playing time, funny. Remember how elegantly we moved to Portal, cutting out a window from the gan portal to the next platform? The rest of the time we decided interesting, balanced, unique riddles. IN TS the same … “puzzles” – loudly said. They are more reminiscent of extremely “intellectual” riddles from Half-Life 2-“Take that box, throw it in that button and haase run over to that door”. In the project DNS The solutions, of course, are not so simple: there are dangerous lasers from which the tender carcass of the heroine, exploding objects, harmful turrets that kill from one shot must be saved … But this is all. Puzzles, like levels, as if collected from each other’s pieces, and some combinations of actions have to be repeated repeatedly.

At the same time, fifteen levels are pulled by plot tires, which is much longer than a fascinating portal. After a vigor, for nothing that you expect more clicked tie than a couple of “unsubscribing” videos. By golly, the loading screen will have to be contemplated more often. Because the game designers also shut up. Ideally, we must spend several minutes on thought and in a matter of seconds to realize the decision in the game. Still, Logic, that is, “logical puzzles”, and not “sadistic finger” is listed in the column “Genre”. With the simplest mystery – on a special remote control to “turn off” the gravity and drive the ball into the doorway – you will have to escape a good ten minutes: the moody sphere constantly flies down, then soars to the ceiling. And Ashley’s weak health periodically dies of falling from two or three meters. She probably takes revenge for giving her the nickname Miss Clish. Otherwise, why would she have so ridiculously dies and my guiltyly mowed at us during a rather long download?

Despite all the grayness Twin Sector, Its creators are a promising team. There is an attempt to make the plot more interesting, and add your own to other people’s ideas. But there are too many gamed -designed mistakes and other roughnesses. The weak graphics of the 2003 sample, repeated riddles, inconspicuous levels-here the emery will have to work properly. We wish DNS Development Good luck?

Pros: They wanted Portal as in Portal ..
Cons: But it turned out – boring puzzles, gray levels, weak graphics, slurred plot and railway composition of gamemeraduer misses.

Twin Sector

The best comments

I would give "Booking". Of course, when compared with the portal and halva, which at least somewhat similar to the sector, but completely different (arguing stupid), TS will lose. Its developers do not have the resources that Valve has no experience. At the same time (and with some inconvenience of management), I was going to praise the sector just for what they scolded here. Offer comments well, it would look like a riding of stupidity if he began to joke about cakes. Corridors give an atmosphere of alien people in this bunker. Riddles are not always obvious, but what a buzz you get from their decision. Tasks are repeated in some ways, but absolutely do not bother – even on the contrary, it is interesting to note that your "Engineering" The skills are growing. On execution on the Penumbra looks like. Not atmosphere, but by execution and budget.

To: [Strong] Celeir [/Strong] "I would give a commendable" You are mocking? I would give maxematically for this crap," Passage" Well, with a stretch.

I got some impression that many simply did not want to delve into the plot. Dear, the game is judged by complete passage, and not by the first three minutes. In the vast case, the user under the nickname [Strong] Bionic [/Strong] leaves such an impression. Undoubtedly, every game has its own charm, its own atmosphere, simply not everyone sets itself the goal of this atmosphere to feel. Someone in this game did not like anything, someone from this game under the impression. And there are such games – mega -coatity. Crysis, for example. and his continuation, by the way, too. For some, this is a miracle just an advertisement for super-high technologies, for some-something more, with a peculiar story and style. Also with quests. Someone turns with a nose of 2.5 D graphs, but for someone this is really a masterpiece. Therefore, there is no sense to argue here.

To: [Strong] Bionic [/Strong] forget the demos that they can show? The first level, which at best can be described as a tutorial for a five -year? Any game needs "Swing", Sometimes a few minutes take it, sometimes a couple of levels. Plot. Any plot can be described in two lines, no matter how confusing it may be. It’s easy to say, here a friend will go right now will save everyone, and Oscar will help her. And if you play and go through the plot yourself, everything is perceived differently, completely different. To participate in the plot yourself is much more interesting than to read a squeeze about it. Say, in Drakensang a good plot? Yes, figs are there, there is nothing to reduce anything to get the mentioned two lines – nothing will be lost. But the game itself is the most excellent, and how it is achieved? Quests, dialogues, landscapes, etc.D., what in total gives the atmosphere of the game. I like the gameplay, otherwise I would not play, no matter what a multi -level plot I would not promise me. Again, probably half -hour demo does not understand this. I remember, having passed the first level in SpellForce, I said that I like the game so as not to admit that my many months of Gama did not live up. And very soon it was no longer to tear me away from the game, and in the end I have repeatedly passed it and both addons. And what, I would go to it on the demo of the sluggish tutorial? Back. Graphics. You obviously not so much years to find games of the late 90s – the beginning of the 21st century. There are excellent games, stronger than all the games taken together for some last years, and the graphics – these are those on – already outdated. And you know, this will not stop the real connoisseur of high -quality games from the reproduction of a really standing thing. The graphics are important for the consumer goods that is now politely called a blockbuster – games with nothing outstanding gameplay, characters, history and other, which will go from nothing to do, and after which only the graphics will be remembered – and even then, before passing a more technological game. Dummies. For a serious game that can hook with other qualities, the graphics are not so important. Yes, it will be beautiful – it will be pleasant, but if it is ugly, you can survive.

To: [Strong] Celeir [/Strong] at the score of the soledater, I still remember the first Alone in the Dark. Right now, in it, the monster is indistinguishable from the Hero-Hero, and then it was the top of the technology, what was missing such a thing as an imagination (unfortunately completely forgotten by modern gamers ((()

To: [Strong] Huntergrob [/Strong] I also explained your words at first how "Some garbage was given amazingly, and the sensible thing was called with garbage". But then I somehow doubted, yet I did not play ninindz) The assessment system is imperfect in principle. Everywhere. On this site – too strange gradation – the first three grades, in my opinion, are suitable for very bad, bad and "So -so" games, and then immediately amazing games go. It’s all strange. On other sites, where for example, stars are measured, no one can decide how many points to give a mediocre game, or give/take points under some strange pretexts. In general, even if you correct the names of assessments here, all the same, this assessment will be subjective, the assessment of one person, and to put it as truth and the most important argument in the dispute, sorry, incorrectly.

To: [strong] jerlymarlecras [/barong] and my friend liked Shellshock 2. And chav? What does the team have to do with it? I look, trying here to explain something pointlessly, the author will still remain the extreme in particular and the resource as a whole. I repeat once again for especially stubborn stubborn: you can’t please everyone, if you like the game, this https://youshopyam.fr/img/pgs/bdmbet-casino-come-si-confronta-con-i-migliori.html does not mean that it is not wretched and vice versa. No team will help here, especially since this very team has already above the visor, so that everyone together plays in the same place instead of engaging in individual tasks. I said everything that I considered it necessary, so I go out of the discussion.

Yes, and we must stop referring to the author’s opinion as the most correct of the two indicated, because he is one, and there are a lot of users who voted for the game)

More than half has passed and this is what I can say – Zdomsky yoke! And to those children of the 21st century that they measure the steepness of the games in the picture, I can only advise returning to the kindergarten – the educators are already worried) The fact that the game with outdated graphics, but weighing in the repack one and a half gigs, sell, this is still nothing. And when they sell games of 70 meters, rolled up on CD, for some reason no one bothers anyone. You have to think.

Five consumer goods with beautiful graphics, which, with its mass, filled up those somewhat worthy games that are released in the year?

I do not judge by the pictures, but by video. I liked the game. It is not important for me what graphics or multiplayer is important to me the plot and gemple [img] http: // stopforum.ru/images/smiles/dry.GIF [/IMG] Assessment – good [IMG] http: // stopforum.ru/images/smiles/smile.GIF [/IMG] If you like very good graphics, then play tetris (there the graph is better than crisis 2. [IMG] http: // stopforum.ru/images/smiles/biggrin.GIF [/IMG]) What is the meaning of this graphics. Yab V and Diablo would play [IMG] http: // Stopforum.ru/images/smiles/cool.GIF [/IMG] Elsey you want to crap the game, then for this the toilet is invented [img] http: // stopforum.ru/images/smiles/wink.GIF [/IMG]

I agree with the review, the game UG, and it also loads the computer sho just PPC. And Shift flies. xs cho play with a computer.

To: Bionic I like. And I like much more, for example, lousy Overlord2, which did not approach a kilometer to the first part. Actually, maybe you are not a game itself, but the genre does not like. I’ll not sit down for a quest for goodwill, but I’ll sit down – you think I will respond very well about it?

The first – yes. The second is a squalor, barely forced himself to pass;But this is already offtop. Who doesn’t like Twin SecTOR – don’t play). I’m not dripping the portal, but it’s cool to climb in TS.
