Quote:
1992. George H. W. Bush and Boris Yeltsin officially put an end to the Cold War. Barcelona held the summer Olympic Games. The Tonight Show aired its last show with Johnny Carson…
… and Lucas Fairfax disappeared from his bedroom in Kingdom, Virginia.

Synopsis.
Virginia is a single-player first-person thriller set in a small town with a secret. Experience a missing person investigation through the eyes of graduate FBI agent Anne Tarver.
Together with your partner, seasoned investigator Maria Halperin, you’ll take a trip to idyllic Burgess County and the secluded town of Kingdom, Virginia, where a young boy has vanished and nobody seems to know why.
Before long Anne will find herself negotiating competing interests, uncovering hidden agendas and testing the patience of a community unaccustomed to uninvited scrutiny.
As your investigation takes a turn for the sinister, and the list of suspects grows ever larger and stranger, you will make decisions which irrevocably shape the course of Anne’s and agent Halperin’s lives.

Quote:
Features.
• Cinematic editing that immerses players in a story told in the style of film and TV • A dreamlike journey punctuated by intense drama and populated by a memorable cast of curious characters
• A stirring soundtrack composed by composer Lyndon Holland and recorded live by the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra at the renowned Smecky Studio (Lost Highway, Mulholland Drive)
• An original detective noir story in the tradition of Twin Peaks, Fargo and True Detective
• A striking, painterly art style, steeped in the magic of small town America and the vibrant Virginia countryside.

Smart, very smart, in a feminazi sort of way.
A black, inteligent female lead character with no "man" on the name or title investigating the evil white army general? Wow.. No one can bash it!!

Second better only if it were a black transgender lead character. Scratch Head

Can't wait for the circle jerk around this.


"I think Call of Duty resonates because it's believable and relatable," Sledgehammer Games cofounder Michael Condrey says.

Believable and relatable...Yep, sounds like Call of Duty

It's not very interesting when the devs were too lazy to write any dialogue.

I'm sure that's such an "innovative feature" to the usual crowd.

@Morphineus
Yea, sadly some companies have to change other game features while remaking a classic game. Just upgrading or completely redoing the graphics is all that is needed and wanted in most cases.

Hey Stampede, how about a poem?

It's a high pitched sound

Hot rubber eternally pressing against a blackened pavement

A wheel is forever

A car is infinity times four

Quote:

We realise framerate is a divisive subject. The creative team feels strongly that 30fps is the best way to experience the game - we prefer the quality of the image and it is the best fit for the animations, which have been authored to 30fps. But we know many people hold passionate views on framerate in particular. As such we took the decision to include a control in Settings where you can set the framerate to 60fps or unlimited, based on personal taste.


When 60fps or unlimited actually means animations authored at 30fps Confused

The "dialogue" is hidden inside the terminals, each terminal with some unique logs. You unfold the story through the terminal personality (ask, ask again -differently-) and these past events' logs.

There is a terminal in it, but all you can do is press use to advance.
