![]() Installing Catalina or BigSur first won't help, since it won't update your firmware either. So, something like 122.xxx, 162.xxx, or something older like MBA.xxx & MBP.xxxx, you won't be able to update to Monterey right away, because the firmware wont't allow new version installation on 3rd party ssd. Prior to that, you can't update firmware using third party, only through original apple ssd. If you already changed your ssd back in early mojave or high sierra time, you firmware was not updated since that time, because, only after 195.xxx BootRom version (which came together with Catalina 10.15.7) Apple enable firmware upgrade through third party ssd. Maleficent_Stranger's reddit comment, the bulk of which is reproduced here verbatim, offers more detail: Reports of having to install an intermediate version like Catalina or Big Sur beforehand appear to be incorrect, at least in this case. The new firmware showed the correct version, 428.40.10.0.0.

And by custom, well, we’re talking custom. A PS2 emulator should be possible, there is a good working Gamecube emulator and the Cube had more power than the PS2. XEXMenu has two different versions, which can be incredibly useful for different situations. ![]() If you take a stroll through Tony’s blog posts, or kick back for a Mondello movie marathon on his YouTube channel, it won’t take long to notice that he does a lot of custom consoles.

" I had really bad muscular problems – surviving through that was difficult, because I was really worried about the damage I was doing," she says. London Grammar are a perfect example of a popular group pushed to the point of breaking, Reid, in the same interview, explained how the level of expectation meant she carried on singing without a thought – not wanting to disappoint the fans: For Reid, who was already suffering anxiety and fatigue, that physical weakness would add pressure to an overworked voice. It is obvious so many gigs would compromise the structure and safety of the voice. It is the beating heart of the music and leads everything. ![]() That might sound glib but Reid’s singing voice was there before she met Dot Major and Dan Rothman: it will be there after the trio, years down the line, go their separate ways. Hannah Reid, the lead and alluring siren, is at the centre and the focal point of London Grammar. The main reason for writing this piece is to highlight a group who were put in the spotlight from the off the relentless touring meant the trio almost split the critics were expecting a quick follow-up album – putting a strain on the ranks. I want to feature Hannah Reid’s voice which is a thing of rare beauty. I will look at both of the Nottingham-formed band’s albums and what impact they have made on music. They are a trio I have been following since their debut and noticed a change in them. The second piece is concerned with London Grammar. I hope more people do tune into King Gizzard & The Wizard Lizard’s wavelength and discover what they are all about. Whether they are coming up with time-related concepts and acoustic patterns microtuning and infinite loops – an album where the final track led straight to the opening one (thus, creating a never-ending record!). More than that I wanted to examine the way the seven-piece band reinvent themselves on each album. The first (reason) is because they are an Australian band who deserve a much larger following – they are still under-the-radar here and seen as a quirky option. ![]() Everything is wrapped up perfectly with a repetition of the line “it flickers, flickers in my head” and Reid proclaiming hope for love “if you wait.For a couple of reasons. While the majority of If You Wait straddles the line between impeccable dance tracks (“Stay Awake”, “Wasting My Young Years”, and “Metal & Dust”) and soothing songs that build in size and volume (“Hey Now”, “Sights”, “Strong”, and “Nightcall”), the album closes on the moody, piano-driven title track. The line “Hey now/ letters burning by my bed for you” on opener “Hey Now” introduces If You Wait with a plea of love Reid calls out the words “hey now” repeatedly, cognizant of the fact that there’s no response, definitely not within the song and likely not within the context of this story. It justifies the gloomier, murkier, and vaguer aspect of being emotional, of feeling disillusioned, betrayed, or vengeful. We’re emotional and we love dramatic pandemonium. How can one dance while simultaneously being moved by heartbreak, regret, and devastation? The answer, surprisingly, is simple: We’re humans. ![]() Similar to that of The xx, Reid’s lyrics, when coalesced with the band’s instrumentation, produces an almost guilt-ridden feeling. The group’s Kavinsky cover, “Nightcall”, beautifully encapsulates London Grammar’s emotional danceability - “I’m giving you a night call to tell you how I feel” - and then contrasts it with “Yeah I might speak so long/ I’ve never been so wrong” in “Strong”, at which point the trio’s exponential rise becomes understandable. She achingly recounts teenage tales with tacit regret, but makes it danceable when her voice grooves in and out of Major and Rothman’s piano, guitar, and synth instrumentation. Reid is a reflective, emotionally-driven vocalist. London Grammar is composed of young Londoners Dot Major, Hannah Reid, and Dan Rothman, they’re growing exponentially in popularity, and on their debut, If You Wait, they’re ironically talking of “wasting young years.” One thing’s for sure: Its catchy choruses, sweet bass lines, and Jamie xx’s production have, historically speaking, been (relatively) incomparable, but in an entirely good way.Ī recently conceived comparison, however, is finally here. ![]() What’s The xx’s music really like? It’s cool, yet emotional soft, yet powerful. ![]() ![]() ![]() In theory this makes sense as the menu boxes are incredibly small and would be a pain to select, but they’re only incredible small because the screen has to display the virtual D-Pad at the same time. Most frustrating of all, though, is the menu system, which relies on the virtual D-pad to navigate, as opposed to letting you use the touchscreen. The food system used to top up your maximum spell points, for instance, ends up being more of an annoyance than a feature, while a lot of the game concepts - like the DEX value for attacks or what the various resistances do - go unexplained. It can sometimes feel as if Zenonia is trying to fit a little too much in, though. Zenonia has a ridiculous amount of loot hoarding and inventory management to keep things engaging during the rare moments of peace.Įquipment can become damaged, magic items need to be identified, enchantments crafted, and the weight of your backpack carefully managed unless you want to crawl around for hours. It’s not just about combat and levelling, though. The progression does start to grind down at around level 30, but by that point the character development tree will have fully opened up, offering promises of fantastical new attacks and stat bonuses if you only. It’s also ridiculously moreish, with the next level - and therefore better stats, powers and equipment - only ever a few more minutes away. Will work for EXPĬombat is fast, frantic, and always entertaining, with even the more grindey sections of the story made palatable by the sheer pace of the action. You'll even see a comic-book style ‘Ka-Boom!’ appear when a critical hit lands.Īll these graphical treats did stress out the G1 I was reviewing the game on, though, and this will probably be the case for most low to mid-range Android handsets.ĭisabling the sound from the in-game system menu sped things up considerably, albeit at the cost of some excellent retro music. But Gamevil wraps this simple gameplay in some simply stunning graphics, animation, and pyrotechnics that put 99 per cent of the Android Market’s other games to shame.Įven the simplest strike in Zenonia is accompanied by huge explosions, with numbers zipping away from the monster. It sounds basic and un-engaging when written down, and in the hands of a lesser developer it would be. There’s the occasional stab on a quick-slotted special move or potion, but otherwise your right thumb gets a hell of a workout. The different characters don’t make too much impact on the gameplay, though, as it mostly consists of hammering the 'attack' button whatever character you choose. The Paladin can heal, but his powers are costly to use the Warrior is the heaviest hitter, but is slow to swing the Assassin is quick to strike, but doesn’t last long when surrounded. Character buildingīefore the plot kicks off, you have the choice of picking from three character classes, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. No points for guessing where this occurs.īut while the plot does at first appear to conform to Generic Fantasy 101, like with so much of Zenonia it belies an intelligence and cleverness that puts most other titles in the genre to shame. Zenonia kicks off, rather predictably, with your 16-year-old protagonist called - say it with a straight face, please - ‘Regret’ coming to terms with his father’s death at the hands of a demon. ![]() ![]() ![]() Not only would I run the very real risk of accidentally being the chosen one with dormant powers and a tragic past, but my place of residence would have a better than even chance of being the site of an evil supernatural attack.

Its genuinely enjoyable story is serviced by a varied and intriguing set of worlds to explore – along with the ability to play as Sly's whole crew, including the powerhouse Murray and the tech-savvy Bentley.
