![]() Whether it’s the shy grin of a new bride, her suhaag raat nervousness, the crumbling smile of rejection, or sheer fury, Pednekar never comes across as anything but genuine. ![]() Placing the central focus on an overweight lady is unconventional enough to begin with, and Pednekar meets the challenge by owning every moment. However, everyone in the movie needs to make way for Bhumi Pednekar. The camaraderie between Sheeba Chadda and Alika Amin is also fun. They really should appear in every single movie, preferably together. Sanjay Mishra and Seema Pahwa (from Aankhon Dekhi), play in laws this time and are fantastic. Khurrana’s everyman vulnerability will make you forget the bad memories of Hawaizaada. There are a few unnecessary subplots in Dum Laga Ke Haisha, like the one featuring the an aunt’s ex-husband, but the acting department goes a long way in making up for the gaffes in the script. Even the dialogue renders that era – one person suggests to someone with an upset stomach, “ Limca pee lo, thik ho jayega.” And let’s not forget the wonderful rediscovery of Kumar Sanu, whose aforementioned spirit renders some gobsmacking fan service here, thanks to Anu Malik and Varun Grover’s music. A special mention goes out to the production design by Meenal Agarwal, which includes great ’90s’ details, from cassette tapes to scooters. The film is beautifully shot (by Manu Anand) and scored (by Andrea Guerra). The detailing, both in design and in the characters, as well as the crackling humour elevates Dum Laga Ke Haisha beyond the clichés. Katariya’s film may sound like a more grounded take on Rab Ne Bana di Jodi, but there's a palpable sense of fun and sweetness throughout Dum Laga Ke Haisha that lifts it above the cliches and tradition of Bollywood romances. Prem’s mother reads out a divorce injunction and faints to the ground, only to have her husband ask why she’s taking a nap on the floor. Sandhya doesn’t tearfully accept Prem’s rejection and leave it at that – she lets him have it, much to the hilarious reactions of their in-laws. For instance, the old tradition of the boy rejecting the girl is continued in Dum Laga Ke Haisha but with a twist. Khurrana and Pednekar’s chemistry is effortlessly charming, and they make the silliness of these old love stories work, without losing sight of their absurdity. But he walks over and fetches the sandal all the same, and she believes in love again. Prem gets grouchy about stopping to pick it up she feels guilty for spoiling his mood. There’s a wonderful scene in which Prem and Sandhya ride a scooter and her sandal falls off. So they get hitched and while Sandhya digs Prem, the latter is not excited about spending the rest of his life with a well-rounded woman. But these are the ’90s, and arranged marriages didn’t leave much room for choice for either party. Now here’s the tossup – Prem is neither qualified nor talented. Set in Haridwar, the film stars Ayushmann Khurrana as Prem, a manchild who unwillingly gets married to the cute but horizontally-challenged Sandhya (Bhumi Pednekar). Sanu is like a spirit in this film and also the spirit of the film, but more on that later. It’s also the best Yash Raj film in a very long time.ĭum Laga Ke Haisha opens with the Yash Raj logo against 90s’ legend Kumar Sanu’s humming, replacing Lata Mangeshkar’s traditional vocals. This is as crowd-pleasing as a film gets, only without mawkish manipulation or contrivances. Nostalgia is the only emotion that matches love in intensity and Sharat Katariya’s Dum Laga Ke Haisha milks our nostalgia for that bygone era to wonderful effect. ![]() At first it may seem daunting, but after awhile, a lot of the material just "sticks." Musikamole, you learn this stuff over years of study. It was a fast 10-0 game, and my focus was on trading down after my opponent blundered his queen for my rook, so I was not looking for tactics, just simplification. I missed a tactic in 27.Qe5+, winning Black's last piece, his rook. ![]() I was very pleased with this game, as I did not blunder and found a mate in one. Here's an example of a line in the Scandinavian that I have faced often, and after some study, I have become much better at facing it, and winning games! I especially find it useful to perform a search of games from much lower rated players and scholastic events, where I will see beginning level tactics and attacking themes.Įven though learning opening theory won't do me much good right now at my playing strength, I do like to study the ones that give me grief. When doing a search in ChessBase's online database of 4.5 million games, you see some interesting moves that you won't find in the smaller databases.
![]() Assigning the power to X is useful, but only once you've realised which power you need to get you out of your current mess. In common with the PC version, you still find yourself going into battle and fumbling furiously through cyclical menus while numerous baddies are busy blasting seven shades out of you. Other than that, clicking down the left stick activates your currently selected power, which - as we suspected - feels a whole lot more natural than the keyboard Olympics the PC version demands from you, but in practise still isn't the most natural feeling combat system we've ever encountered. On the Xbox the D-pad houses both the weapons and Force powers menus - left/right cycles through the former, up/down the latter, with the ability to assign that power or weapon to the X button by holding it down for three seconds - readying it for instant recall during gameplay. Imagine playing a beat-'em-up that uses mouse control for the camera, and forces you to select your combos from a cyclical menu and you get some idea of how clumsy this feels. In the heat of a battle it was far too easy to select the wrong one and find yourself sliced up. On the PC version, we found ourselves struggling to cope with the need to cycle through the various force powers then select them (or reaching the distant shortcut keys). Occasionally you'll find an opponent that can only be defeated via a lightsaber attack (yes, apparently able to block missiles too), and as the game goes on you'll find yourself having to use this more and more - to the point where use of the numerous Force powers becomes a necessity rather than an option. Not only does the lightsaber act as an effective block to enemy fire, it slices them up good. However, during the majority of the game you can get by pretty well just either using the standard run and gun FPS mechanics, or panning out into third person mode and wielding your lightsaber at everyone you come across. Predictably, the more powerful and amusing powers are on the dark side, with the likes of Force Lightning, Drain and Grip a lot more fun than the light side's Force Heal or Absorb, although the Jedi Mind Trick has plenty of comedy value when you're sending foes falling to their doom. Some powers are granted automatically, while a selection of light and dark powers can be activated at your choosing, presenting you with the potentially interesting conundrum of becoming entirely evil. The first tier of missions are effectively five levels that you can attempt in any order, and the game progresses on that basis thereafter, gradually ramping up the challenge and allowing you upon completion to assign yourself new Force Powers or upgrade existing ones to level three. The opening level is a tad contrived to say the least, with a shoehorned sense of linearity as you carve trees down to make 'bridges' and in truth it takes several hours before the game becomes truly engaging as it takes you first through a basic refresher course on your Jedi powers, then through a handful of dreadfully uninspired levels. Unlike the similarly flawed Jedi Outcast, you actually get to wield the lightsaber right from the off, and the game gives you the chance to do just that when your ship crash-lands on route to the Academy. Create-a-Jediįunctionally the game is identical to the PC version, with four levels of difficulty, and the ability to create your own Jedi from a selection of species, heads, clothes and lightsaber styles. ![]() A newbie student who hopes to one day become a fully-fledged Jedi, and has enrolled at the Academy under the watchful eye of Luke Skywalker and your 'master' Kyle Katarn, who regulars will recall starred in previous Jedi Knight adventures. The whole game centres on the concept that you're a fresher. The PC version was one of those FPSs chock full of ideas that probably sounded good in the design doc, but when it came to putting them into practice Raven slipped up. Firstly it's a game which arguably has controls that lend themselves better to an Xbox pad than a finger-stretching PC keyboard configuration, and secondly it's being ported by Vicarious Visions - the team tasked with the Doom III port, of all things. There were two reasons we were curious to take a look at this quick-fire port. ![]() ![]()
![]() The maps were stuffed full of German soldiers and tanks etc, all moving about on their own patrol rotues, each with their own little vision cones ready to spot you and call “alarm! alarm!”. (I still remember the look of most of them, especially that last castle level). I remember the game technology was pretty remarkable at the time for 1998 as well: The maps were huge, they varied in local and importantly were beautifully detailed. But it’s often so much more easy and satisfying to stab a few lone sentries and haul their bodies away in an effort to reduce the number of eyeballs that might spot your stealthing agents. You don’t have to kill anyone and everyone – some missions can be done entirely without contact with the enemy if you’re one of those insane speed runners I see on youtube. Your goal as the commander is to use the Commandos and their special skills to complete the main mission objective, which is usually blowing up a certain building inside a heavily fortified Germany base, or killing an important General before he flees in the car, etc. The Driver is the only one that can drive cars and is American so therefore has a machine gun. The spy can dress up in enemy clothing and walk amongst the enemy unseen. ![]() The Marine has scuba gear, a harpoon gun and can drive the inflatable boat. The sniper has a long ranged weapon, for sniping people with. The sapper carries all of the major explosives, grenades and traps. The Green Beret is all about heft: He can climb walls, stab people, carry bodies to hide them away and leave some little distraction box (so he can then stab people looking at it). In each mission you control a handful of “Commandos” characters via pointing and clicking, each commandos has a variety of special skills uniqe to themselves (kind of like the A-Team). The game is a point and click real-time sort of game. It’s such a unique sort of game that I even consider two games, Robin Hood and Desperados, as “Commandos Clones”. I’d definitely consider it a “unique” game, even if there are a lot of “stealth games” out there. Or even a small-scale-squad-based-nazi-stabbing-sim, or something. If you’ve never played Commandos before, I’d call it a real-time-puzzler. So now it’s time to find out if anyone can play Commandos 1 without any cheats as well. (I think I had to ‘cheat’ in order to find some bonus mission or something) I think I did nothing but play that game from release until completion, ignoring everything else in life until it was done. I do remember Commandos 2 was one of my most eagerly awaited games, and I was definitely glad to play it. I think my friend had it, but I only played a demo. I can barely remember the expansion, Beyond the Call of Duty. (Or better: get more than one star on a mission). I had no idea if those later levels were even possible, or what kind of crazy person existed that could actually run through the vision cones and stab their way to their mission objectives without setting off the alarms. Infact I don’t think I actually completed it – I did at most a 1/3rd of it, and then used cheats to skip through each subsequent mission, each one looking even more impossible than the last. ![]() I distinctly remember my school friends and I all owning/playing the game when it was released and loving it (though strangely I don’t remember trying multiplayer – I suspect we didn’t all have the internet back then or something), but finding it extremely difficult. I soon found Commandos shooting to the top of the “fave games list”! And rightly so, as everytime I think about Commandos I think “corr, what a game! They don’t make them like that anymore”. So special that I’d completely forgotten that the games existed until I made a small “game ranking” program that allowed me to compared a bunch of games against each other and allowed me to pick the best out of the 2 being compared, then sorted them in a big list accordingly. The Commandos series holds a special place in my heart. ![]()
![]() If you’re in the mood for a new Pokémon experience (for all generations), these ROM hacks with unique starters are definitely worth a look. It stands to reason that changing your starters with game hacks has a huge impact on how your Pokémon adventure goes – and that’s exactly what these ROM hacks are meant to do. And they are part of your personality as a coach. ![]() The primer you choose determines your adventure. These color-coded champions give beginners a chance to survive in the tall grass, prove themselves against the inexperienced trainers patrolling the first routes, and eventually become one of Elite IV’s toughest opponents. Since the beginning of the series, rookie Pokémon have been the backbone of the trainer’s team. This is the best way to get a Pokémon game experience that benefits from a few extra original characters, or even some Pokémon you may have missed out on. In this post, we present some of the best Pokémon ROM hacks ever created, as well as the starters that come with them. While there are many ROM hacks out there, some are so good we would like to recommend them to you. Most people prefer to play ROM hacks with the original starter Pokémon in them. As you might imagine, these ROM hacks can be a bit jarring. These are games that borrow the sprites and graphics from original games and insert ones from the Pokémon game series of the current generation. If you’re a Pokémon fan, you’ve probably heard of Pokémon ROM hacks. To fill in the blanks and make the trainer’s experience more interesting, some players will modify the game’s ROM to add new Pokémon, and then use past experiences with the Pokémon to make educated guesses as to what its final form will take. Every Pokémon trainer has a favorite Pokémon, and when that Pokémon is captured and evolved, its journey through the game never truly ends. |
