IGN plays through the first third of Samus Aran's latest adventure. Detailed impressions and 60 glorious 480p screenshots.
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.
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).
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!
"Prime 3 boasts some of the best boss battles in any videogame, period" - IGN
Maybe that 10/10 from Nintendo power wasnt so far fetched after all?
This is a VERY good preview.
Read the IGN preview....now read the 1up preview...you will see a major damn difference..1 up sucks a$$
That is an absolutely stunning preview.
All of the quotes that can silence Wii naysayers...
"However, the truth is that Corruption is the best looking Prime game to date and very easily Wii's flagship visual stunner."
"Corruption plays better than any of its predecessors due in large to the new Wii control scheme."
"It yields the fastest and most responsive first-person controls in any Wii game to date -- possibly in any home console game ever -- and it alone makes the experience so thoroughly enjoyable that you won't want to put the Wii remote and nunchuk down."
"Critics have complained that first-person games on Wii have yet to prove their control superiority to those on other consoles, but we really do think that Prime 3 will open some eyes."
"...it's an amazing experience both mechanically and visually. If this is truly the end of Retro's magnificent trilogy, Samus Aran will have gone out on a very high note indeed."
This is what I like to see. Now we know that there's a use for all of those achievements, as well as application of WiiConnect24. This game is looking to be the Wii's killer app. The screens look nice too. Rundus looks strange in his PED suit, though.
I expect to be saving some major Federation Trooper butt on the 28th :D
P.S. New videos on the preview channel tomorrow! Even one titled "dark samus"!
