I would compare it to playing on a keyboard but with more comfortable buttons to press and the up button placed where your thumbs rest. ![]() It retains all the classic attack buttons but replaces the directional stick with buttons. I decided to take on a fighting game gauntlet with a day of matches with my little brother in just about every fighter I own to find out.Ī hitbox controller is a stickless arcade pad. ![]() The true question, though, was whether or not I would prefer it over a classic gamepad, my Tekken comfort zone. It's a great option for those who love that style of control, but don't love carrying around a big, boxy gamepad. Its selling point is that it is sleeker than most hitbox controllers on the market and features high-quality buttons. Released last year, the Razer Kitsune is a hitbox-style fighting gamepad with no joystick. A standard Xbox controller? PlayStation’s DualSense? A fightstick? Or maybe it's time I looked to the future and tried out a hitbox controller? That last option is the one I'd ultimately go with, thanks to the Razer Kitsune. I had no clue what controller I wanted to use to learn and beat the rest of the competition. With the release of Tekken 8, I’ve been at a bit of a crossroads. The only reason I could tell what was happening out the gate was because all players are given an outline in their team's respective color, as well as an arrow above their heads to let them know what direction to shoot. Everything was bright, irritating, and obscured. My first match in Foamstars had the unintentional effect of perfectly replicating what it feels like to get real foam in my eyes. While there's fun to be had in its version of ink-based Splatoon shooting, Foamstars can be an overwhelming explosion of shapes and colors that soaks up all the fun. The basic idea of Foamstars was always centered around blasting both the arena and opponents with foam in a neon-tinted style reminiscent of Hatsune Miku. What I wasn't expecting was a mountain of legibility problems that made it hard for me to tell what I was doing. I went into it expecting a quirky little arena shooter that would give me a weekend or two of fun before running out of steam as its live-service model began to rear its head. Square Enix's latest is a riff on Splatoon that trades in ink for suds. There's a new multiplayer game in Town: Foamstars. That’s the game’s way of telling out that as far as Mania goes, it’s a sequel to Sonic and Knuckles, the fourth game in the original Sonic series of games.Īfter playing 6 hours of Sonic Frontiers, I’m sold on the ‘open zone’ pivot The clock-like dial that shows up briefly at the start of the animation goes from 1 to 2 to 3, and then on to K and M. Notice too another nod to Sonic Mania‘s place in the franchise. Indeed with the geometric backdrops of this short animation, the developers appear to be giving a nod to the arguably very poor Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog show, which although nostalgic, is no way near as well liked or remembered as its contemporary, Sonic the Hedgehog. This is the original character who could have been ripped right from any of the original games, or one of the two very different TV shows based on the character. Gone are the long legs and slender waistline of more modern Sonics. Sonic Mania‘s opening cinematic is so retro, it’s even got a slightly chubby main character again. ![]() Although of a high-quality with beautiful coloring and attention to detail, the style of its opening animation is very reminiscent of a bygone era. More than that though, Sonic Mania is looking more and more like a celebration of the early ’90s era that spawned the character. While many will argue the reason for that, Headcannon and PagodaWest have decided that it was straying from the classic formula, which is why Sonic Mania goes back to Sonic’s 2D roots. There have been odd diamonds in the rough, but there have been an awful lot of lacklustre Sonic games over the years. The Sonic franchise is a somewhat bizarre one in its enduring popularity, because although Sonic is one of gaming’s most classic and beloved faces, the game has not fared well in the years since its mid-’90s peak. Sonic’s 30th anniversary concert showed what a perfect digital event looks like ![]()
