STRANGER OF PARADISE:
FINAL FANTASY ORIGIN
If you can get past the bizarre dialogue –
most of which consists of protagonist
Jack talking about wanting to kill Chaos


  • this more action-heavy spin-off of the
    long-running series looks like a wild,
    ridiculous ride.

RAINBOW SIX EXTRACTION


A


t last, opposing Rainbow
Six factions have
stopped trying to shoot
one another in the face,
and all it took was an
alien invasion. Extraction is a strictly
PvE experience – Operators have been
lifted out of Siege, given a little tweak
here and there, and dropped into this
1-3 player alien hunting simulator. By
offering a mixture of offensive (such as
Hibana and Sledge) and defensive
(including Vigil and Pulse) characters,
Extraction allows for a balanced team.

With 13 mission types and 12
‘containment zones’, there’ll be plenty to
do, and it’ll rarely be as simple as
spraying bullets all over the place. In
fact, going loud will tend to bring a horde
down on you, which will make objectives
such as collecting samples much
harder. Different enemy types have
abilities such as invisibility, laying traps,
and smashing through walls; there’ll still
be plenty of opportunities to put those
guns (and gadgets, such as Smoke’s
gas grenades and Gridlock’s TRAX
stingers) to use.
