A Story of a Boy.
"Last year, I brought my Wii home for Thanksgiving. Not so much to show it off, but more to give me something to do while I was there. besides, I was loathe to leave it behind since I had just purchased it. Once it was up and running I dragged my rather skeptical parents down to check it out. It should be noted that my parents' last run in with video games was when they bought my brother and I an Atari 2600 back in the day. They enjoyed it then, but only just. It should also be noted that my folks are pushing sixty (sorry, mom) and video games are not something they think of doing as entertainment."
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."
Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.
Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.
Nintendo has announced the SNES and Super Famicom games gracing the Nintendo Switch Online library this month, and there are some gems to enjoy.
Strange headline, as I thought the star of the show was Super RType. I almost bought RType Dimensions EX this last month and was just thinking, man I wish we had the SNES one somewhere on Switch. That's where I got my start w the series and I was beyond excited to see it drop this week!
i have ps3 now i am planning on getting a Wii..

after reading the Kotaku comments.
I... am a graphics snob.
I've been gaming since my first computer a Texas Instruments 99/4a. It was a hand me down but it was fun. But I always looked at my friends Commodore 64 and thought, wow that looks amazing! I wish I had that!
Then I got a Commodore 128 and it was good... until I saw the first Nintendo Entertainment system. I thought This is AMAZING! It was head and shoulders above anything on the market. It took me six years but I finally got one (Hey its hard for a little kid to raise that kinda cash).
Then I saw my first real PC graphics and things like Wing Commander. I sold the NES after six months and got a PC.
I was PC gamer for nearly 10 years, always on the buy more RAM, buy a new video card, upgrade the computer every 2 years cycle, until I realized it was just a waste of money. I swore off Microsoft and Windows and decided I was done with gaming. Until I saw the Playstation 2.
I bought the PS2 a month after launch and I've been hooked ever since. I ALMOST got an Xbox due to its superior graphics, but I just didn't trust Microsoft. I'm glad I didn't. The PS3 was a no brainer when it came out. I got mine on launch day and have loved it ever since.
Does that make me a "hard core" gamer? I dunno... maybe. I don't really fit that mode. I really just like the best graphics combined with great gameplay. I also want that balanced with longevity of my investment and reliability. No more 2 year upgrade cycles for me!
I look at the Wii... and I think that this just can't last. Maybe one or two years tops. Its not going to pull out the 6 year PS2 life I had mine for. I'd go bonkers with graphic envy! :)
Anyway, I'm glad everyone else on the planet seems to enjoy the Wii. I tried, I really did. The controls were sloppy and no where near what I expected them to be when I tried one. My PSP graphics "seem" better than the Wii's. I just can't get into it.
Good luck in three years Nintendo. Your a great company, your just not for me.
