  9. Hardspace: Shipbreaker is about dismantling the relics of Homeworld

    The prow of the transport peels away like the galaxy's biggest slice of layer cake, shorn edges still white-hot from the touch of my laser. A dragon's haul of cosmic junk is revealed: corridors lined with zero-G seats and computer displays; outer hull compartments packed with relay boxes and fat, juicy cannisters of coolant. I set to work with a will, snipping at connecting struts and using my electromagnetic grapple to whip freed components into the hoppers along the flanks of my salvaging bay.

  23. Final Fantasy 9 and the picture book adventure of a PS1 Final Fantasy

    There's a small, almost incidental sequence that I've often thought about since I first played Final Fantasy 9. In it, Princess Garnet (or 'Dagger', at this point in the game) and her buffoonish knight Steiner have a conversation whilst in a hillside cable car, all brass and rivets. Soon after they are reunited with thespian/thief Marcus in the station café, before the next leg of their journey. The area is framed from up high, round tables and stools and bottle green gas-lamps. The lighting is warm, people are chilling, and the music is a near-lullaby recorder version of the game's theme Melodies of Life. The scene feels recognisably suspended, in transit. An enclave of calm and safety removed from normal concerns, like morning light on a weekend lie-in.

  30. Final Fight: DF Retro revisits the arcade original, every port, and all sequels

    Digital Foundry | Final Fight: DF Retro revisits the arcade original, every port, and all sequels

    The definitive history of a classic fighting franchise.

    Emerging at a time of unprecedented technical innovation in the arcade, the story of Capcom's Final Fight is remarkable. Building from the semi-success of the original Street Fighter, the firm revolutionised the side-scrolling brawler with the debut of Final Fight, originally known as Street Fighter '89. Brilliant art design, fast-paced kinetic fighting and a pounding soundtrack combined with the technical brilliance of the CPS-1 board to create a revelation and one year later, the game would achieve further popularity from the arrival of a mega-successful - but controversial - Super Famicom/Super NES conversion.
