![]() He dreams that one day he will be the one responsible for ending Steelhearts vicious rule. His research is the only thing that he cares about. David has dedicated ten years of his life researching the Epics powers and what can kill them. After all, his father was the only one to make Steelheart bleed. Killing him was nothing, no guilt, no remorse. The death of his father was at his monstrous hands. This Epic has a mysterious past with non-epic human, David who will spend years plotting his revenge…ĭavid has witnessed Steelheart at his most destructive and soul-less. One such fractured state is the destroyed city of Chicago, now known as Newcago, ruled by an extremely powerful Epic, called Steelheart. In its wake we have super epics making the rules and controlling the fractured states, some doing a better job of it than others. The rule and policing from the United States Government has collapsed like a deck of cards. They no longer have the luxuries and things they took for granted is no long gone. Life is drastically altered for the average human being. Their rule is absolute, and it’s done with an iron fist. They use their powers for bad…they use it to control and manipulate. ![]() They have superpowers, there is no rhyme or reason to the who or the why, but these epics are not the heroes the world is expecting. It has in its wake created Epics, an evolved human if you will. Why on earth has it taken me so long to read Brandon Sanderson’s work?Ĭalamity has visited the earth and brought with its cataclysmic effects. He is the master of foreshadowing, a breaker of wills and the puppet master of emotion. Brandon Sanderson had my heart beating at a staccato rhythm and my imagination on red alert. It’s usually within pages that I will be able to determine whether a novel is going to submerge me within its world, whether I mould between its pages…I was a goner by page two. ![]() It’s been a while since a Fantasy novel has truly engrossed me, but Brandon Sanderson is a magician amongst mere mortals. Period." -Patrick Rothfuss, author of the "New York Times" and "USA Today" bestseller The Name of the Wind make this an absolute page-turner."-"Publisher's Weekly" "Perfect for genre fans who love exciting adventure stories with surprising plot twists."-"School Library Journal" " " "A straight-up Marvel Comics-style action drama featuring a small band of human assassins taking on costumed, superpowered supervillains with melodramatic monikers."-"Kirkus Reviews" "Fantastic! The suspense is relentless and the climax explosive, with a resolution that I'll be thinking about for a long time." -James Dashner, "New York Times" bestselling author of the Maze Runner series and The Eye of Minds "Unfortunately for my ego, Steelheart is another win for Sanderson, proving that he's not a brilliant writer of epic fantasy, he's simply a brilliant writer. ![]() "Snappy dialogue, bizarre plot twists, high intensity action, and a touch of mystery and romance it's a formula that sucks readers into the prologue, slings them through one tension-filled encounter after the other, and then.leaves them panting for the sequel."-"Booklist," Starred "The near-constant action, Sanderson's whiz-bang imaginings, and a fully realized sense of danger. Look for book two in the Reckoners series, Firefight, available in 2014. And it turns out that the Reckoners might just need David too. But to exact revenge in Steelheart's world, David will need the Reckoners-a shadowy group of rebels bent on maintaining justice. How far would you go for revenge if someone killed your father? If someone destroyed your city? If everything you ever loved was taken from you? David Charleston will go to any lengths to stop Steelheart. #1 "New York Times" bestselling author Brandon Sanderson, who was chosen to complete Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series and created the internationally bestselling Mistborn trilogy, presents "Steelheart," the first book in the Reckoners series, an action-packed thrill ride that will leave readers breathless.

![]() Unlike Hunters, however, Danny and Leo cannot get bloodied during Executions or Combat on the PSP/PS2.All versions of the game have Hunters getting bloodied and bruised during Executions and Melee Combat/Gun fights however the effect is much more detailed on the PC and Wii.In the PC and Wii versions, all hunters have facial animations, but on the Beta, PS2, and PSP, many hunters don't have facial animations.The game seems to perform better on the PC and Wii than on the other versions.The visuals of the PC version can be boosted further with the help of 3rd-party software, such as Nvidia Inspector, which can add modern enhancements, like HBAO+ and SGSSAA.The PC version of Manhunt 2 has much better visuals than the other versions, The Wii version also is visually superior to the Beta, PS2, and PSP, although it's not as good as on the PC.There is a bonus tutorial in the Wii and PC that lets players become used to the controls.In the Beta, PS2, and PSP versions, the player must press a button combination until the hunter leaves in the Wii version the player must keep the Wii remote/ nunchuck still and in the PC version, a circle with a dot in the middle appears on screen and players must use the mouse to keep the dot in the circle(which begin to get smaller and move around) until the circle turns green and the hunter gives up. The sequence of regulating your breathing when a hunter is investigating your shadow is different in some versions.There is no quick turn feature in the Wii and PC versions of the game.On the PC, you can also take off interactive executions in the options menu, so the game can be played without motion gestures. ![]() The Wii and PC feature motion controlled actions, such as performing and carrying out an execution.The font in the PC and Wii versions of is larger and different than in other versions.There is some hunter dialogue in the Wii and PC versions of the game that does not appear in the other versions.The music score in the PC and Wii versions of Manhunt 2 is noticeably easier to hear than in the PSP, PS2, and Beta versions.The Wii controller has a speaker on it which Rockstar used to play some audio through.The PS2 version of the game is the only one that supports a headset.Players can fight back with hand-to-hand moves, guns, or perform stealth kills using such items as meat cleavers, plastic bags, and hammers to slice, suffocate, and bludgeon enemies. Each gang employs different tactics to snuff out players: some will wait in the shadows, while others use heavy artillery. Fortunately for players, the sound of enemies is also tracked via radar, which helps isolate threats based on their movement once they stop making noise, however, players are on their own. If the character is too loud, gang members will quickly track him down and make life more difficult. An onscreen indicator measures the decibel level of each action players make, whether it's running, walking, firing a gun, or smashing a window. Sound also plays an important role in Manhunt. ![]() Cash can also peek around corners and throw items such as bricks, glass, and more to distract enemies. ![]() As in titles like Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell, hiding in shadows is a key element of the game, where players can avoid detection simply by kneeling behind trash cans, boxes, and other objects within the environment. In order to stay alive, Cash must carefully stay out of view and make as little sound as possible. Gangs with such names as The Smileys, The Hoods, The Skins, and The Innocents are being paid to rub out James Earl Cash, preferably in as gruesome a manner as possible, while being filmed from a series of hidden closed-circuit cameras littered throughout each locale. The locales, which include sewers, a prison, shopping mall, factory, junkyard, and more, are all abandoned and in various states of decay. As in the developer's previous two releases, players find themselves exploring a seedy, dark city from a third-person perspective, but that's where the similarities end. Following a storyline that draws similarities from such films as The Warriors, Hard Target, and The Running Man, Manhunt casts players in the role of James Earl Cash, a man unwittingly snatched from death row to participate in a twisted game of survival.
The Fisherman Magazine will hold its annual surf fishing seminar on Sept. Most importantly, over $25,000 was raised for local East End charities, and a big thanks has to go to Henry Uihlein for all his effort in putting the tournament together. ![]() Hearst Mills took top prizes for fluke and sea bass in the party boat division fishing aboard the Sea Otter VI, and John Pansuk, fishing on the same boat, landed a 29.3-pound striper giving the Sea Otter the grand slam award for the open boat division. Rich Etzel of the charter boat Breakaway won the bluefish and sea bass category, earning him the Acme Marine Hoist Charter Boat Angler’s Cup for the charter boat division. Skip Rudolph, of the charter boat Adios, had the largest striper in the charter-boat division with a 41.3-pound bass. Jillian Edelman took the top spot for the largest fluke in the recreational boat division, beating out 51 other private boats filled with men.Ĭapt. Nick Kantzas took the $10,000 second-place money for his 14.38-pound chopper that was weighed in at Fisherman’s World in Norwalk, Conn., and third place and $3,000 went to Peter Muff, who weighed in his 14.28-pound bluefish at Four Winds Tackle Shop in Huntington Station.Īt the other end of Long Island, the Mercury Marine Montauk Grand Slam took place Saturday and Sunday, and in one of the categories, it was again a young girl who took the top prize. When she heard her uncle was fishing in the tournament, Kersten asked if she also could sign up.Īpparently, the pretty blue-eyed angler is a ringer, having won a couple of fishing tournaments back home. Her uncle Todd, who lives along Long Island’s North Shore and who was also entered in the contest, said Kersten has been fishing ever since she could hold on to a fishing pole. While most anglers entered in the tournament fished both days, Kersten just fished on Saturday because she had to return to Massachusetts to get ready to enter the seventh grade. She caught the 14.58-pound fish on Saturday and weighed it in at Terminal Bait and Tackle in Kings Park. ![]() Kersten Glaven, of Grafton, Mass., the youngest winner ever of the tourney, starts school next week with an extra $25,000 for lunch money. A 12-year-old girl visiting her uncle turned out to be the big winner of the Greatest Bluefish Tournament on Earth. It was created by a group of photographic experts in 1992 and it stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group. The format has become one of the most popular patterns on the Internet. In this post we will explain a bit about the difference between these formats. You have probably noticed that when saving an image, you have several extensions like: jpeg, png, gif, bmp, among others. So if you want your images to be smaller without compromising on quality or resolution, then go with PNG.With so many image formats available on the web, it is difficult to know which one is best for each application. It turns out that although they both excel at different features, PNG has an overall preference over BMP format because it’s a lossless image compression algorithm while BMP for Windows offers a higher maximum color depth than other platforms. We compared the two file types from their technical specifications to see which is superior in terms of size and quality. In this blog post, we have discussed what BMP and PNG image file formats are. BMPs were once king among online graphic editors, but later file formats surpassed them with their ability to provide accurate editing support on complex imagery this means most people today choose PNG over older counterparts like Bitmap (BMP) and Icon ( ICO). They can also store more detailed graphics than other types of image compression such as JPG or GIF because they use lossless encryption when converting the data into an alpha channel format. PNG files are ideal for storing high-quality images that have been scaled down in size. These make up all four color channels of traditional photography stacks used by printers today to produce vibrant images throughout print workflows. In this case, you should avoid both BMP and PNG files because they have limitations when it comes to physical paper or inkjet inks that struggle with CMYK colors including cyan (blue), magenta (red+green) yellow key/black. The best choice for printing is not always the most popular one. so you’ll find yourself using either one for most projects unless there’s some other reason why one would be better (e.g., transparent background). However, the difference isn’t enough to make much of a note. The advantage of using a BMP file over an equivalent PNG is that it has slightly higher quality. PNG supports additional compression to further reduce the file size. Most people are familiar with the benefits of PNG files over BMPs, but did you know that they’re also lossless? This means after compression and decompression, an image can be restored to its original quality. PNGs compress automatically, making them smaller than BMP images while still retaining most of their details. BMP files result in large file sizes for the way they handle individual pixels. File Sizeįor the same image or content, PNG files are smaller in size than BMP files. This means that reducing or expanding a PNG file doesn’t lose any information.įollowing are the key differences between BMP and PNG file formats. PNG, on the other hand, is a compressed and lossless file format. Due to this, these tend to have larger file sizes. BMP is an uncompressed and lossless file format. Though both are raster file types and were developed and released the same year, the big difference is in the compression scheme. Difference Between BMP and PNG File FormatsīMP and PNG files have a lot in common. In this blog post, we’ll take a look at the characteristics of BMP and PNG file formats, and discuss the difference between these two. But what’s the difference between them? Our previous blog post, BMP vs APNG, compared BMP and APNG file formats. Both have been frequently used in desktop and web applications until replaced by other modern image file formats such as WebP. BMP and PNG are two of the most common image file formats that you’ll encounter while working with images. ![]() If you want to drive at the stereotypical speed of an elderly motorist to preserve the structure of your motorcycle, you can still capture victory if you hit the accelerator a reasonable distance from the finish line. The downside to this is that much of the race is inconsequential. The same goes for you, however, if you take a dive, you’ll find yourself rocketing back to everyone else. If you jam a banana in the spokes of one racer, it’s a minor inconvenience they’ll be rejoining in short order. ![]() It’s a bit ridiculous because every track keeps the roughly 10 racers bunched together at all times. The goal of the hyperactive rubber-banding is to keep all the racers in a tight pack. However, I can’t imagine Road Rash 64 without it. Normally, I hate rubber-band AI with a molten-hot passion. You need to cross first, but it’s more about whether or not you can survive that long, rather than if you’re the fastest.Įven if you wanted to focus on speed, you’re not getting past the strict rubber-band AI. I’d go as far as saying that it isn’t really that committed about the whole racing thing. Road Rash 64 is still about hitting the finish line first, but it really wants you to fight. Which isn’t to detract from the classic titles, I’m just setting up for a comparison here. Your primary goal is to just win the race, and fighting was useful to achieve that, but not necessary. With classic Road Rash, however, the fighting seemed more for identity reasons. For example, I wouldn’t typically play a hockey game, but the brutality of NHL Hitz gets me on the bench. Marrying violence to a sport is a pretty reliable way to make me interested. If you’re unfamiliar, Road Rash is a racing series where you’re allowed to beat the stuffing out of your competitors. It feels more like they were more focused on seeing what they could get away with. In a lot of ways, it’s slapdash and feels thrown together, but not in a way that makes it seem like none of the development team cared about it. It’s a game that stands out from the rest of the Road Rash series that started back on the Sega Genesis. Still, I’m going to try and explain to you what makes Road Rash 64 so amazing. In a way, it’s sort of our game, my old roommate and I. I’ve introduced many others to it in the years since, but I don’t think that others see the same thing we saw in it. It’s not that we were laughing at the game - okay, we sort of were - but it poked at the same part of our brains that had us clutching our sides while watching golden-age Popeye cartoons. Lyrics from its repetitive soundtrack worked their way into our personal vernacular (we often just referred to the game as “Mean Machine”), and many evenings were spent howling with laughter at just how ridiculous it is. ![]() My affection for the title greatly outweighs its quality, but I played it during the N64 days, then rediscovered it with a roommate of mine after college. I’m surprised it has taken me this long to talk about Road Rash 64. ![]() Note - Please wait for the sync process to complete.
