A Life Remembered: Jim Parrott

Posted on 2016-10-14 by encaf1 Posted in A Life Remembered, The Lunchbox

A Life, RememberedTwo weeks before the Progressive Conservative Party of New Brunswick will pick a new leader, the party lost one of its more outspoken, high-profile members.

Dr. Jim Parrott died last Tuesday, Oct. 5 in Saint John. He died at the age of 74.

Parrott was a pioneer in medicine who later went into politics and never shied away from controversy.

That would eventually cost him his spot in the Tory caucus, but he got it back from former premier David Alward right before the 2014 election, in which he lost.

Party officials have said Parrott would have been at the leadership convention on October 22 in Fredericton to help the party pick a leader for the 2018 provincial election.

Nathan DeLong from St. Thomas University Journalism discusses Parrott’s legacy in this podcast.

God of War will have limited/ no demos. Release date is still being figured out.

Posted on 2016-10-13 by ICE Posted in Gamers of the Round Table

3087655-13433100_990141217772179_2077165116384924598_o

God Of War on the PS4 is one of the most anticipated games to come out in the next few years, and is one of PlayStations most beloved franchises. Unfortunately, the lead up to its release will probably not feature a lot of demos, and the release date is still being figured out.

Director of God of War Cory Barlog talks about the game on twitter, he recently told a fan that God of War will not have much, if any demos, saying that demos take away time from developing the game. Cory also stated that the lack of news on the game is so they can focus on developing the game, and stray away from spending time talking about the game. With the development well underway with the game, Barlog can not comment on a release date for the upcoming AAA title.

God of War is set to come out sometime in 2017.

The Crazy Train Episode #XCVII

Posted on 2016-10-11 by Chris Waddell Posted in General

CTlogoA1On Episode #97 of the Crazy Train we had locals ‘Tactus’ in to debut their entire album ‘Bending Light’.

Adrian, Alec, Steve and Ben joined me and we went through the album track by track and got into some talk about the bands gear, their touring and plans for the future.

The album is now available through the band or at the bandcamp website, as well as through Tactus.com (links below), they even have a special edition instrumental version of the album!

On next weeks episode of the Crazy Train I’m planning another Punk/Hardcore episode of the show. CHSR gets in a lot of Punk and Hardcore (plus other genres from the ‘Punk’ tree) and since no one is doing a show to get this music on air, I’ve decided to throw in some episodes here and there!

At the bottom of the page, below the info on where to get ‘Bending Light’ from Tactus, I’ve also included the ‘Upcoming shows’ as I didn’t have time to go through them on Saturday nights show.

Also, please note that since we’re back into UNB V-Reds hockey season, that every so often throughout the Winter the Crazy Train will be reduced to an hour long. It was either this, or get bumped completely, or end up doing the show on Sunday nights. But I thought it’d just be too ridiculous trying to steer listeners to different nights and different times!

Tactus ‘Bending Light’ is available at: http://www.tactusband.com/#/home

Also at: https://tactusband.bandcamp.com/

Upcoming Shows:

Beyond Good & Evil 2 is in development

Posted on 2016-10-06 by ICE Posted in Gamers of the Round Table

After a few posts for the past little while it has been teased that Beyond Good & Evil 2 was coming. Ubisoft has officially announced today that it is in development, the announcement was made through the Beyond Good & Evil facebook page.
“If you’ve been waiting for news about BG&E … Well, here you go! We are delighted to confirm that Michel Ancel is currently working with the Ubisoft Montpellier studio on a new Beyond Good & Evil game.”
Beyond Good & Evil 2 was first announced back in 2008, but in 2016 question were beginning to arise whether the game was still in development; Yves Guillemot did confirm at E3 2016 that it was being developed, but it was hard because the series creator Michel Ancel was working on two games.
Rest assured though Beyond Good & Evil 2 is in development.

Batman TellTale Review Episode 1 & 2 Review

Posted on 2016-10-06 by ICE Posted in Video Game Reviews

Batman: The Telltale Series – Episode 1 and 2

Trainer_Red, Gamers of the Round Table

Today my review on Telltales Batman is based on how well the amazing storytelling company worked with the Dark Knight’s lore, as well as evidence from what I’ve played so far (there are only two episodes out currently). Telltale certainly knows Batman better than I do and have done the Batman name justice so far.

Story: The story takes place during an election campaign where District Attorney Harvey Dent is running against Mayor Hill in order to improve Gotham City; luckily for Dent he is being supported by his good friend Bruce Wayne. But when Falcone shows up at the Wayne mansion during a meet and greet, the good name of the Wayne family starts to take a turn for the worse. In all honesty this game delves into lore I’ve never even heard of, including what Bruce’s parents – Martha and Thomas – were actually like personality wise.

Gameplay: As per usual Telltale style, the game revolves around the choices you make in conversation and alters the story based on your choices. The action scenes using quick time events requires players be paying close attention to a game that at times can feel like a visual novel, and the planning for when Batman has to clear a room is done so seamlessly that it’s near perfect.

Conclusion: TellTale certainly has a good grasp of the Batman universe and certainly delivers suspense, making me and many others excited to see what they have in store for the future episodes of this game.

Score: While the game is currently unfinished, what I’ve played so far is amazing and I’ve only run into a few issues (odd times where quick time events don’t respond despite a button being pressed correctly), but overall I feel I must give Batman episodes 1 & 2 a 9.5/10.

Skyrim and Fallout 4 are getting mod support after all.

Posted on 2016-10-06 by ICE Posted in Gamers of the Round Table

Bethesdas Skyrim and Fallout 4 will be getting mod support after all, but will be limited. Bethesdas website statement also adds and states the following, “that both games will receive PlayStation 4 Pro enhancements as well. Skyrim Special Edition will run in native 4K on the upgraded system (screenshots below), while Fallout 4 will boast better lighting and graphics features.”

This is definitely a surprise because last month it was announced that there would be no mod support for these titles on the PS4 due to issues with sony. This was the quote from Bethesda last month
“After months of discussion with Sony, we regret to say that while we have long been ready to offer mod support on PlayStation 4, Sony has informed us they will not approve user mods the way they should work: where users can do anything they want for either Fallout 4 or Skyrim Special Edition,”
Mod support will be available first on Skyrim special edition then Fallout 4 on the PlayStation 4. Skyrim special edition is releasing on October 28th when everything runs smoothly, Bethesda will then focus their attention on Fallout 4.

Gravity Rush 2 Delayed

Posted on 2016-10-06 by ICE Posted in Gamers of the Round Table

 

Gravity Rush 2 delayed, Even with the production of the highly anticipated sequel running smoothly it has been delayed, the game will now release on January 20th in the UK and U.S.

On the PlayStation blog, Keiichiro Toyama (director) says the delay is happening because of how busy the holiday schedule is, with the release of big games like Final Fantasy, Watch Dogs 2 releasing in the same timeframe.
Do not feel like your getting ripped off, Toyama announced because of the delay, a plan paid DLC will now be free when released.

Preview of BATTLEFIELD 1

Posted on 2016-10-06 by ICE Posted in Gamers of the Round Table

battlefield_1_cover_art

BattleField 1 is flying in close with guns blazing, The World War 1 is set to release on October 21st on the ps4 and Xbox One and PC.
Battlefield 1 was revealed to the gaming community back in May, there was speculation before the reveal that Battlefield would take place during World War 1. It was not until the reveal that this was confirmed , it was like a breath of fresh air when it came to the first person genre. We have never seen a World War 1 game done to this scale before and it’s very exciting to see this kind of game come out in this day and age.

Dice went that extra mile to capture that reality of the first World War, from the trench warfare to the extremely dirty and muddy battlefields. Many new weapons came into play during this time period such as infantry rifles (German Mauser, British Lee-Enfield, French Lebel, French Berthier). It was not just about the guns that made advancements, the grenade, the mortar and the machine gun took big roles on the battlefield in the four years that the war took place.

During the campaign of Battlefield 1, you will take on the role of six different characters who have their own personal stories and experiences during the war. This explains why there are only six campaign missions, which is really unfortunate in this case because it makes me feel like they copped out on the campaign and for me, that is the highlight of the Battlefield franchise. During the campaign, however, I am hoping to see some classic battles like Vimy Ridge and Passchendaele.

For most people, it’s all about the multiplayer playing different modes alongside your friends online, fighting against other teams with people all across the world leveling up with each kill you get, working with your team to come out with the victory to unlock better weapons and gear etc. The multiplayer in Battlefield seems to be the main focus DICE and EA which is unfortunate because, people who buy it for the single player are getting the short end of the stick.

Hoping this game will shine a little bit of light on the education aspect for the younger generation, for those who do not know much or anything about the first world war. It may not give a huge history lesson, but it will give some insight of how rough the conditions were, the advancement of weapons, chemical warfare and trench warfare.

BattleField 1 is hitting store Shelves on October 21st on the PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

Please tune in next week, October 13, 2016, Cancer Understood
