Star Wars Pinball is the best pinball available on your PS3/Vita. The company announced today that it would released Zen Pinball 2 later this spring. I doubt I ever would have taken a chance on a complete unknown for the same price. ![]() Pinball fans on the Playstation 3 console will be happy to hear that developer Zen Studios is cooking up a new version of its 2010 released Zen Pinball for both Sony's PS3 and PS Vita consoles. ![]() While I’m not sure the added 4K and HDR capabilities will entice someone who already owns the PS3 version, anyone who hasn’t experienced Okami since the days of 4:3 televisions or those who haven’t played it should be prepared for a real treat, especially at the incredibly fair price of $19.99. While the gameplay may be solid-yet-unremarkable, it’s still a pleasure to experience the marvelous art direction, music, and a fantastic story featuring a litany of memorable characters and interesting locations. It’s the best version of a fantastic game that has managed to age gracefully - something most 3D games struggle to achieve. It may be a Zelda clone, but it’s probably the best Zelda clone ever.Īll in all, this latest (perhaps final?) iteration of Okami is exactly what it should be. However, neither the inaccurate painting nor the combat are are deal-breakers in this expertly-crafted adventure full of interesting puzzles to solve and excellent dungeons to maneuver through. Hit a guy three times, slash him with the brush, wash, rinse, and repeat for 50 hours. It’s serviceable, but a tad basic and doesn’t require much strategy outside of the inventive boss fights. Okami has always had this problem, and it’s a shame it hasn’t been improved.Īnother thing that could’ve been improved in this version is the combat. It’s a cool mechanic, but the drawing has never been accurate enough, as I feel around 30% of my drawing attempts end with nothing happening. This translates to puzzles and combat as well - Amaterasu can draw a bomb to open up new areas or blow up bad guys, as just one example. Okami‘s big gameplay hook is its ‘painting’ mechanic that allows Amaterasu to superimpose a canvas on the screen and paint in missing aspects, such as drawing a bridge over a river or restoring the flora on a tree. If this sounds familiar, that’s because it is. There are towns to interact with, puzzles to solve, dungeons that culminate in boss fights, power-ups to acquire, and a glowing fairy that guides the player and serves as a mouthpiece for our mute protagonist. With that said, for players without upgraded consoles and/or fancy TVs, this new version is essentially identical to Okami HD on PS3, which means it’s essentially the PS2 version of Okami, which means it’s still awesome.įor those who haven’t played it yet, Okami is essentially a Zelda game where the player is a dog that happens to be better than that time Link was a dog in an actual Zelda game. While not as crisp as other 4K games, Okami will nonetheless serve as an excellent showpiece for anyone with a fancy new console and TV - impressive, considering this title is over eleven years old at this point. Heavenly canine (and protagonist) Amaterasu bringing back the beauty of a once-cursed area remains one of the most visually stunning things in the history of the medium, and it looks better than ever now. The real stunner here is the HDR, as the colorful world is absolutely beaming with life. However, due to the art style of Okami, the resolution bump isn’t as impressive as one may think since the water-colored, intentionally blurry design doesn’t benefit from added fidelity. No, the real news is the ability to play in full 4K resolution with HDR capabilities on the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X. They serve as a novel little distraction, but with loading less of a problem these days, they don’t add a lot. This latest version only features two enhancements, the less notable being the optional return of the PS2 loading screen minigames that were later removed. ![]() ![]() Luckily, a rabid cult following was enough to get Okami a re-release on Wii a couple of years later, followed by another release on PS3, and now it has once again returned to grace modern devices. The game jumped onto the scene in 2006 with high critical praise and a resounding thud on the sales charts, immediately contributing to the unfortunate shuttering of the talent-laden studio, who had a knack for releasing wonderful games that sold about as well as month-old cabbage. I suppose if buying a game three separate times, beating it twice, then happily agreeing to review it again upon its fourth release makes me a fan of Okami, then I guess I am - there’s maybe a handful of games I’ve played in my life as charming or as aesthetically pleasing as Clover’s beautiful ode to Japan’s artistic heritage. LOW The implementation of the brush mechanics is still a little finicky. HIGH This version is best possible way to play an absolute classic. ![]() People on social media are calling for the Montage Hotel to cut ties with Timothy Ward and other people on social media are encouraging people not to stay at the Montage Hotel when they travel to Laguna Beach.

![]() Over the years, the Rorschach test has been shuffled between the shared file drawers of psychology, supported by some therapists and derided by others. THERE'S STILL DISAGREEMENT OVER WHETHER THE TEST ACTUALLY WORKS. They use Rorschach's, and his 10 images are still the ones in circulation today. ![]() Contrary to popular belief, psychologists don't create their own cards. THE BLOTS HAVE NEVER CHANGED.įrom their initial publication in 1921, the 10 blots designed by Rorschach have never undergone any kind of facelift. The only subjects he felt the test failed to assess were teenagers, since they had too much in common with the clinically insane. Depressed persons didn't remark much on the introduction of color, while “neurotics” were said to be alarmed by the sudden explosion of red. Creative types might see more images in motion, while those ruminating on details lacked imagination. ![]() Rorschach believed answers to his test could illuminate a subject's psychological state. RORSCHACH THOUGHT THE TEST WOULD WORK ON EVERYONE-EXCEPT TEENAGERS. A person's response to the sudden infusion of pigment into the black and white shapes might indicate stronger emotional responses. Finally, Rorschach observed how people reacted to the introduction of color in five of the 10 cards. If they see a person, he or she might be dancing. People will also assign varying levels of movement to the shapes. Typically, people exposed to the Rorschach test are processing each image on three planes: form, movement, and color. Rorschach also omitted any perceptible brush strokes or other indications they had been handmade. While the cards appear messy, he felt they couldn't present as deliberately crafted, otherwise patients might think the art was customized for their own specific session. Rorschach developed the 10 blots with a kind of structured disorder. THE RORSCHACH BLOTS ARE VERY DELIBERATELY MESSY. After Rorschach published them in his 1921 book, Psychodiagnostics, German psychologists called them "crude." The test didn't receive wide acclaim until it was brought to the United States by child psychologist David Mordecai Levy in 1923-a year after Rorschach died at age 37 from appendicitis. Worse, his colleagues didn't believe the blot test had any demonstrable value. Publishers wanted him to pay them to reproduce the cards, possibly owing to wartime paper rationing. RORSCHACH'S COLLEAGUES WEREN'T IMPRESSED.Īlthough Rorschach was eager to publish the inkblots in 1918 to bring them into wider use, the illustrations were met with derision. In his later writing, Rorschach said only that "empirical observations" informed the blots and that he had "no explanation for why the test worked at all," according to Searls. According to Damion Searls, author of a history of Rorschach and his creation titled The Inkblots, no surviving memos or notes exist that detail Rorschach's process for designing the cards or what data or sources he might have used to craft them. Rorschach first developed the inkblot test of 10 splotchy cards to diagnose mental illness. WE KNOW NEXT TO NOTHING ABOUT HOW THE RORSCHACH TEST CARDS WERE DESIGNED. In doing so, Rorschach believed he could burrow deeper into a patient's subconscious than written psychological tests allowed. That inspired him to begin using his own custom-made, abstract, symmetrical designs to solicit conceptual answers from his subjects. Working in a Swiss asylum, Rorschach wondered if patients would interpret these inkblots differently depending on pathology, which he had some success with. The game generally involved pouring ink onto paper, folding the paper over, and seeing what images emerged. In the late 19th century there was a popular children's game called klecksography-the art of making images with inkblots. THE RORSCHACH TEST WAS INSPIRED BY A CHILDREN'S GAME. For a clearer picture, check out some facts about the test’s origins, efficacy, and more. The Rorschach test, named after creator and psychiatrist Hermann Rorschach, has been allowing people to interpret its abstract inkblot images-and for mental health professionals to draw conclusions about their personalities and possible mental disorders-since its debut in 1921. It’s become as iconic an image of psychology as Sigmund Freud puffing on a cigar. |
