Gran Turismo 7 – What are the differences from Virtual to Reality

Game Ace Pro 0 0

Have you ever wondered what kind of driving similarities can be discovered from driving on the same circuit in Gran Turismo 7 (virtual) compared to real-life (reality)?

With just over a week away from the launch of Gran Turismo 7, we thought it would be fun and interesting to have two racing experts to help us answer that question – one from virtual, the other from reality.

Utilizing Willow Springs International Raceway as our testing ground, the super-fast 2.5 mile, nine-turn road racing circuit has been home to some of the most classic Gran Turismo battles, including the FIA GT Championships 2021.

Professional race car driver, Dai Yoshihara, pilots a race-prepped Evasive Motorsports’ Tesla Model 3 Performance vehicle provides his real-life pointers on how to be tackle the one of the fastest and most challenging tracks in the U.S, including the ideal vehicle modification, racing lines, and small nuisances that only an experienced driver would know.

In parallel, a longtime fan of Gran Turismo, Steve Brown aka Super GT takes a modified Tesla Model S and gives his detailed insights from a virtual perspective through his in-game experiences with Gran Turismo 7.

Watch our two part Virtual to Reality video series where these experts provide their insights on the differences in GT7 and real life. Be sure to not miss the Side-by-Side comparison video of a flying lap in Gran Turismo 7 and in real life through the cockpit of a Tesla vehicle.

Brawlhalla x G.I. Joe collaboration adds Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow

Snake Eyes

Tip 1: His wolf, Timber, will come to help in times of need!

Timber is Snake Eyes’ super rad wolf. The cool thing about Timber and helping in times of need is that time of need can be whenever you want it to be. When Snake Eyes is using his sword, his side signature uses the biting power of Timber. Trying to get a knockout? Timber side signature. Opponent running away? Timber side signature. Though don’t use signature attacks too much since they make you very predictable and overusing them leaves you open for punishment from your opponent. I’m just saying you can play with Timber whenever you want. And those two listed situations are pretty good opportunities for playing with Timber.

Tip 2: Snake Eyes can throw grenades over the edge of the stage

In Brawlhalla, players can hang onto the wall for a bit of time. Usually, you can go out there on the wall yourself and hit opponents hanging onto it, but Snake Eyes has an attack he can use from the stage to hit offstage opponents. Blasters down signature has him throw 2 grenades out, which usually just hit the stage, but if thrown correctly they can go over the side of the stage a pretty good distance. And those explosions are not polite. There’s a good chance a well-placed Blasters down signature will mean a knockout in your favor.

Tip 3: High attack power and low defense means you h

Attack on Titan Armored Titan Mastercraft Bundle hits Vanguard and Warzone Pacific today

Game Ace Pro 0 0

Abandon your humanity and take on the form of the Armored Titan. As the anime adaptation nears its dramatic conclusion, the collaboration between the award-winning Attack on Titan and Call of Duty continues.

Available for use in both Call of Duty: Vanguard and Warzone Pacific, the Tracer Pack: Attack on Titan — Armored Titan Mastercraft Bundle comes stocked with 10 items, including an Ultra-rarity Mastercraft Weapon Blueprint along with the eponymous Armored Titan Operator Skin for Roland Zeiment.

Bringing the Armored Titan Operator Skin to Call of Duty

To mark the occasion of the Armored Titan Operator Skin coming to Call of Duty, I caught up with Jason Babler, associate live operations art director at Sledgehammer Games

Noel: What was the feeling at Sledgehammer Games when you first found out that you were going to be bringing the Armored Titan’s likeness into Call of Duty?

Babler: I’ll speak for the entire team when I say we were both honored and thrilled to bring Kodansha’s Attack on Titan to Call of Duty. There are a large amount of Attack on Titan fans here at Sledgehammer Games, and it was pretty unanimous that the Armored Titan needed to be in our game. 

What was the process of integrating Attack on Titan into Call of Duty? Could you share some memorable moments? 

Bringing Attack on Titan to Call of Duty has been a collaborative effort involving Sledgehammer Games. We spent a lot of time exploring ideas for imagery that would make sense as emblems, stickers and other 2D art, as there was a ton of amazing fan-favorite images from the anime to choose from. Picking the Armored Titan happened very quickly, however, which is a testament to its strong character design. Our character team felt they could bring those visual cues forward and create a human-sized operator within Call of Duty. 

I remember the first time I saw the 3D model of the Armored Titan, and then later the Ultra rarity, Titan-themed gun we created – that rush of excitement seeing this coming together really resonated with our entire team and it happened many times on this project. We know the fans will feel that as well. 

This Operator Skin is unlike any we’ve ever seen in Call of Duty. How did you feel about being able to bring a monster like being to life in the form of a beastly outfit for the first time in Call of Duty?

I used the word honored before and it’s still the first word that comes to my mind. Having worked in the anime industry before, I understand the love that artists and studios put into their characters. In this case, we have been trusted to carry these beloved Attack on Titan characters into our world in partnership with Funimation, and we wanted to do them all justice. Every person on this project carried th

Enter the Dragon’s Nest with new Shadow Warrior 3 gameplay

Game Ace Pro 0 0

The katanas are sharpened and the dragon hunt is about to begin! I’m Bartek, the lead producer on Shadow Warrior 3, and our team here at Flying Wild Hog are excited to give you all a fresh look at our game before it launches on March 1. Stay tuned though because this post is getting a few updates throughout the day, with more videos to dive a little deeper into the game. Oh, and one more thing – Shadow Warrior 3 will be a PlayStation Now title at launch.

The first thing we want to share is an extended look at a new mission from Shadow Warrior 3 – the Dragon’s Nest! Our hero and his chatty companion are on the hunt for the dragon that was accidentally let into our dimension at the end of the last game and, more specifically, one of its eggs that can be weaponized to defeat it. The Dragon’s Nest is a beautiful, bright landscape that has seen better days since the dragon made its home there and wrecked the few bridges, buildings, and temples that remain. It’s a good mission to showcase the creativity in combat and movement alongside the new Gore Weapons players gain from activating finishers that we think make Shadow Warrior 3 a thrill.

Gunplay vs. Swordplay

The Shadow Warrior series has always leaned into the concept that a melee weapon like our katana shouldn’t be thought of as a last resort when you run out of ammo but rather a lethal option in the arsenal that makes players risk getting closer in order to land devastating blows on demons. The new game expands on that mechanic in a few ways including the ability to level up your katana to perform new attacks and creating a relationship between how you kill an enemy and the resources gained from each conquered monster. Striking down a demon with the katana will now yield ammo for your ranged weapons, while blasting them to bloody pieces drops health to patch yourself up a
