![]() ![]() You push the stick to the right your plane/ship rolls to the right. You see.from the Wright brothers to the Space Shuttle one thing in flying remained the same. BIG MISTAKE! The Xbox version of this game is done by amateurs who don't know anything a about flight/space sims, and that's why this version is crap that I will never play again. So much so that when I accidentally found a version for teh Xbox 360 I immediately bought it. BIG MISTAKE! The I loved DarkStar One on my PC. I got this game for $5, and I don't think I'd pay a whole lot more for it, but I can't say it's a bad space simulator.just that space is really boring. The ship's a little slow and the default weapon sounds like a Star Wars reject, but otherwise it's fun. Space battles are fun usually, once you get the controls. The game tells you it has "Over 300 star systems to explore!" That's half true it does have over 300 star systems, but since about 250 of them consist of little more than a trade station, a planet decal (or picture), and some random debris, that's not saying a whole lot. The missions are pretty much all the same within their respective types. From there, you go around collecting credits by killing pirates, pirating for yourself, smuggling, or escorting cargo ships between systems. You must hunt down the vile murderer and bring him to justice, but first you must collect enough credits to get to a star system with information. The plot goes like this: your father has been murdered by a mysterious criminal, but on the bright side he left you a ship that can be upgraded with alien artifacts. ![]() The plot goes I've always wanted to try a space simulator, but Darkstar One: Broken Alliance might have turned me off from simulators forever. I've always wanted to try a space simulator, but Darkstar One: Broken Alliance might have turned me off from simulators forever. But be warned that this game is for those of us who want a 4X game so badly that we can't score it lower than 7.5. Overall the game fills a void that has been neglected on the console and that in itself makes this game worth 20 USD and a 7.5 review score in my book. The graphics are crisp and clean but to me they feel unnatural. Extermination has less to offer than exploitation. Exploitation is not worth discussing because of how little it brings to the game. There is no station management or player controlled solar systems. Expansion consists of opening new solar systems. When you enter a new system everything in it is listed in a Target List leaving little room for actual exploration. Exploration is comprised of entering new solar systems via your upgradable warp drives jump distance which is not only determined by money but mainly where you are in the storyline. #DARKSTAR ONE SHIP UPGRADE#It's a fairly shallow game that doesn't offer much customization, although there are plenty of upgrade components. Most people who enjoy 4X games, exploration, expansion, exploitation, and extermination will find this game lacking at the same time playable. Most people who enjoy 4X games, DarkStar One: Broken Alliance for the Xbox 360 is currently the only one of its kind as of Feb. … ExpandĭarkStar One: Broken Alliance for the Xbox 360 is currently the only one of its kind as of Feb. But can we have more games like this on console PLEEEEEASE. So Kudos Kalypso for releasing this game,cos theres people out there(myself included)that have been crying out for a game like this on cosole,for the longest time.(Probably the last decent space combat game on a console,was Starlancer,on the Sega Dreamcast,which is unacceptable).This has got everything you would want from a game like this.You can go where you want,& take on whatever missions you want,& do trading also,Elite style.I like the way that the Alien artifacts you collect,you use to upgrade your ship(The Darkstar One),to the systems you want to work on,& the way it shows visibly in the look of your ship.The combat could be a little better if i'm honest,Could do with being a little slower & more tactical like say Starlancer or The X-Wing games,but its ok,& not too fast & 'wizzy' like Project Silpheed.But all in all,if your looking for a decent Space Combat/Trading game,then this will do nicely. So Kudos We REALLY need more games like this on the 360! or any console come to that,Especially as this is the only one like this on it. We REALLY need more games like this on the 360! or any console come to that,Especially as this is the only one like this on it. ![]()

![]() Fox News sometimes used qualifiers to describe things in a more editorialized way, such as characterizing people or groups: " Squad member Talib", "the left-wing group", " terrorist organization Hamas." The team noticed a marked pro-Israel slant as we assessed news articles about the exchange of rockets between Hamas and Israel. An article about House members being fined for not wearing masks didn't interview the other side, such as Nancy Pelosi or others who wanted Congress to keep wearing them despite new CDC guidelines. We noted sensationalism in subheadlines that appeared in blue blocks on Fox News' homepage. In many cases, we found the body text of the articles to be rather balanced or just stating the facts. The team generally agreed Fox News runs a number of sensationalist headlines and that its story choice is right-wing. During the review, two team members who Lean Right and one who is in the Center said Fox News is between Lean Right and Right all other team members said Fox News deserves a Right rating. At the time, we rated Fox Opinion separately as Right. 2021, which may have contributed to a shift in online content.įor this review, we looked at Fox News' homepage and it US and Politics sections only, not its opinion content.

![]() ![]() ![]() Players believed that Senet revealed what obstacles lay ahead, warned dissolute souls of their fiery fates, and offered reassurance of the deceased’s eventual escape from the underworld, as represented by successfully moving one’s pieces off the board. ![]() The ancient Egyptians believed “ritualistic” gaming sessions provided a glimpse into the afterlife, according to Tristan Donovan’s It’s All a Game: The History of Board Games From Monopoly to Settlers of Catan. Pieces that landed in square 27’s “waters of chaos,” for example, were sent all the way back to square 15-or removed from the board entirely. ![]() Piccione in the journal Archaeology, Senet evolved into a “simulation of the netherworld, with its squares depicting major divinities and events in the afterlife.”Įarlier game boards boast completely blank playing squares, but in most later versions, the final five squares feature hieroglyphics denoting special playing circumstances. Originally a “pastime with no religious significance,” writes Egyptologist Peter A. This Senet board dates to between roughly 13 B.C.Ĭharles Edwin Wilbour Fund / Brooklyn Museum As in most complex strategy games, players had the opportunity to thwart their opponent, blocking the competition from moving forward or even sending them backward on the board. Rather than rolling dice to determine the number of squares moved, participants threw casting sticks or bones. Two players received equal numbers of gaming tokens, usually between five to seven, and raced to send all of their pieces to the end of the board. Senet boards were long and lithe, consisting of 30 squares laid out in three parallel rows of ten. Those with fewer resources at their disposal made do with grids scratched on stone surfaces, tables or the floor. Archaeological and artistic evidence suggest it was played as early as 3100 B.C., when Egypt’s First Dynasty was just beginning to fade from power.Īccording to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, upper-class members of Egyptian society played Senet using ornate game boards, examples of which still survive today. This ancient Egyptian Senet board is on view at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.īeloved by such luminaries as the boy pharaoh Tutankhamun and Queen Nefertari, wife of Ramesses II, Senet is one of the earliest known board games. From Go to backgammon, Nine Men’s Morris and mancala, these were the cutthroat, quirky and surprisingly spiritual board games of the ancient world. And 5,000 years ago, in what is now southeast Turkey, a group of Bronze Age humans created an elaborate set of sculpted stones hailed as the world’s oldest gaming pieces upon their discovery in 2013. To the east in India, Chaturanga emerged as a precursor to modern chess. Farther south, the ancient Egyptian games of Senet and Mehen dominated. In addition, in Akrotiri and in other settlements across the Aegean there are stone slabs with shallow cup marks where the spheres could have sat or been placed.Long before Settlers of Catan, Scrabble and Risk won legions of fans, actual Roman legions passed the time by playing Ludus Latrunculorum, a strategic showdown whose Latin name translates loosely to “Game of Mercenaries.” In northwest Europe, meanwhile, the Viking game Hnefatafl popped up in such far-flung locales as Scotland, Norway and Iceland. The analysis put the stones into two groups of larger stones and smaller. The stones, which are smaller than golf balls, are in various colors and made from different materials. The latest study published this week in the Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports by Drs Christianne Fernée and Konstantinos Trimmis from the University of Bristol's Department of Anthropology and Archaeology examined common features on 700 stones-which range from around 4,500 to 3,600 years old-found at the Bronze Age town of Akrotiri on the island of Santorini. Following on from this the team wanted to explore potential patterning within these sphere concentrations, to help give an insight into their potential use. Previous research by the same team from the University of Bristol indicated that there was variability in sphere size within specific clusters and collections of spheres. There has been quite a lot of speculation around these spheres found at sites on Santorini, Crete, Cyprus, and other Greek Islands with theories around their use including being for some sort of sling stones, tossing balls, counting/record-keeping system or as counters/pawns. ![]() ![]() I might revive it some day but for now, this part of my life is over. ![]() My heart is no longer in it and I have other pursuits.

Kevin Durant is tied with LeBron James for the most "red" categories with 5. Durant's scoring is up 4.3 points at the Knicks from an already impressive 27.4 point career average. Kevin Durant plays notably better at the Knicks. The NBA had a shortened season due to the lockout in 2011-2012. Kevin Durant missed some time with a foot injury. Plus, every click increases the chance that we’ll get something truly interesting - the Draymond Green cover story.Kevin Durant has 7 games at Madison Square Garden, he plays in the Western Conference, and therefore he only plays at Madison Square Garden once a year. Go read the whole thing because the piece contains a lot of Curry’s thoughts, both on gun control and abortion, neither of which involve Kevin Durant. Curry said Trump’s rhetoric “has a tone of divisiveness that doesn’t have a place in our country.” And as for President Obama, who called Steph after the Warriors took out the Celtics in the Finals, Curry claims he said, “What the F-CK are they gonna say now?!” Steph also gave his thoughts on Donald Trump, who famously disinvited the Warriors to the White House after a title, before they could boycott the trip themselves. ![]() None of that seemed to sway Brooklyn, who reportedly weren’t interested in rebuilding around Wiggins, Poole, and Ben Simmons. KD requested a trade, he made some comments on social media (what else is new?), and he demanded that the coach and GM get fired. Last, it seems pretty clear that the Nets really didn’t want to trade Kevin Durant. That wasn’t the case with Kevin Durant and the Brooklyn Nets, especially with Durant signed through 2026. That’s why trades usually happen when there is some kind of time pressure involved - it’s an hour before the trade deadline, it’s draft night, the lockout just ended and the shooting guard who choked your head coach is coming back, etc. And they’re risky! No one on ESPN is giving out letter grades for trades that didn’t happen. Trades are hard! You have to have two general managers agree on terms, which really means you have to have two owners sign off, as well as likely a majority of a team’s front office. Next is that there are probably 100 rumored trades for every one that actually happens. #Kevin durant stats freeIn the same manner, they don’t seem concerned about having three players - Draymond Green, Andrew Wiggins, and Jordan Poole - being in a contract year in 2022-23, and all theoretically able to test free agency. Maybe it’s not really disrespectful if the rumored move is for Kevin Freaking Durant, but it really seems like the organization assumes everyone will act like a professional. First, the Warriors are very confident in their team culture, because they don’t seem worried about players feeling resentful about getting shopped. Greg, though, was a dominating seven-foot. There’s a few takeaways from Steph’s quotes. Kevin had put up dazzling stats and highlight reel plays while being named National Player of the Year. If anyone’s saying you wouldn’t entertain that conversation - no disrespect to anyone on our team - but you don’t know how things work. ![]() ![]() He once again excelled in the playoffs, leading the. While he supports the team and insists, “If we run this thing back, I’ve got complete confidence in my team that we can win it again, as constructed,” Curry said his reaction to a Durant return would be an emphatic “Hell yeah!” Durant averaged 26.4 points and a career-high 1.8 blocks per game during the 201718 regular season. So all of those things, I understand, having played with him and gotten to know him. I think he has had certain things happen in his life that hurt his ability to trust people around him, in a sense of making him feel safe at all times. The idea of playing with KD and knowing who he is as a person, from our history in those three years, I think KD’s a really good dude. The baby-faced assassin confirmed that, yes, the Warriors did discuss adding Durant after he asked the Nets for a trade this summer. Rolling Stone is just like Twitter - they can’t help talking about Steph and KD every day. And did Obama ever host the ESPY’s? We didn’t think so.Ĭurry gave a wide-ranging interview about his philanthropy and activism, his mental health (Steph sees a therapist because “You can’t think you’re Superman just ‘cause you can go 24/7/365”), and of course, Kevin Durant. Dennis Rodman made it in December of 1996, Michael Jordan was part of a montage of over a hundred people on a 2006 cover (barely counts), and other than that, the only famous basketball player on an RS cover in the 2000s was Barack Obama. ![]() Then it was 15 more years before Shaquille O’Neal graced the cover in November of 1993. #FBF December 1978 Cover with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar /v5raY4d0QB- Cheech & Chong November 6, 2021 ![]() ![]() ![]() #PAKISTAN BANK NOTE HOW TO#On Monday, the IMF said policy discussions, including how to target support to those affected by the floods while maintaining macroeconomic stability, will commence in coming weeks after the damage assessment report becomes available. "I have been dealing with the IMF for the last 25 years I will deal with it," he said, referring to any potential reservations by the lender. FUEL PRICESĭar also defended his decision to slash fuel prices days after taking over - reversing a policy of raising prices monthly through added levies to ensure enhanced revenues as agreed with the IMF.ĭar said imposing additional levies was not justified as the country struggled with catastrophic floods that have killed more than 1,600 people and inflicted at least US$30 billion in damages. One of the agreements was to implement a market-determined exchange rate and to stop government intervention in the central bank. ![]() The country was only recently able to restart an International Monetary Fund (IMF) bailout package after agreeing to undertake difficult reforms. According to central bank figures, Pakistan currently has just US$8 billion in reserves, barely covering a month of imports, making market intervention through currency injections difficult. Since Dar took over, the rupee has strengthened. He added that the rupee would be strengthened though government "policies" as the current rate was inflated due to speculation.ĭar, who was sworn in last week as finance minister for his fourth stint in the role, has strongly favoured intervention in currency markets in the past. "The rupee's real value is below 200 (to US$1), and, God willing, it will come below 200 (rupees)," Minister Ishaq Dar said in an interview with local television channel Geo News. The rupee is currently at around 227 to the US dollar, and the currency has been in turmoil, falling as much as 30 per cent this year. The images of national animal Markhor and national tree Deodar on the reverse also highlight the danger of extinction of such species and the need to preserve them.KARACHI, Pakistan: Pakistan's newly appointed finance minister said on Monday that the country's currency will strengthen to under 200 rupees to the US dollar. SBP further said that the reverse of the banknote highlights country’s national commitment towards climate change and its repercussions for Pakistan, which has gained added urgency in the light of unprecedented loss caused by the recent torrential rains and flooding in large parts of Pakistan. The commemorative banknote has been designed to pay tribute to the leaders contributing towards creation of Pakistan and create awareness about climate change and its impact on our environment,” it added.Īccordingly, the obverse of the banknote is graced with the portraits of Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Allama Sir Muhammad Iqbal, Mohtarma Fatima Jinnah and Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, it said.
