The real-time, first-person combat of the Bethesda Fallout games might not make for the ideal handheld experience, but the older titles from Interplay Entertainment are just the thing for portable platforms. It's a wonder why these weren't brought to the PS Vita or Nintendo Switch in the past. Though the newer games have a big audience, some fans prefer the classics for the unforgiving difficulty and deeper RPG mechan
X-Com: Apocalypse is arguably the most forgotten main-entry in the XCOM franchise. This game is the most ambitious XCOM title ever that revolves around a major city and managing multiple organizations instead of simply stopping an alien invas
That is because XCOM 2 lies to the player about a character's hit percentage. In actuality, the game gives players a much higher chance of hitting than what's on display. On easier difficulty settings, an 85% chance is closer to a 95% chance according to an interview with Jake Solomon , the lead designer for XCOM 2 . As for why 100% hits can miss, the game rounds up if a shot has half of a percent chance or higher of hitting. Don't expect this sort of percentage leniency on Legendary difficulty , however, as this percentage favoritism towards the player is disabled on higher difficulty setti
In short, it's a system that finally forces players to shuffle their rosters as the game progresses, and a clever solution to those who send the same soldiers into battle again and again. The challenges of maintaining a healthy roster of skilled soldiers adds plenty of surprising depth to the XCOM experie
Many XCOM fans were shocked that Firaxis announced and released a new XCOM game within the same month. XCOM: Chimera Squad is a strange title that changes much of the core XCOM formula. Regardless of someone's stance on the game's changes, it was intended to be a giant experiment and entry point for the ser
There'll always be some luck involved in an XCOM game, but many attacks will just miss when you most need them and your Ranger can often just end up killed if any move fails. As a result, they can be extremely risky without a whole lot of extra upgrades and attention put on t
Even though the XCOM games are famously difficult , they are all turn-based. As a result, players have plenty of time to plan and think about their moves. XCOM: Chimera Squad is currently only on PC, so Steam Deck looks to be a great way to play this beloved title . XCOM: Enemy Unknown is available on the PS Vita, but it plays poorly. XCOM 2 is available on Nintendo Swi
An Ōkami cover art featuring on this list is fairly ironic, as the franchise is known for having one of the biggest box art botches of all time. When the Nintendo Wii version of the game was released, eagle-eyed fans noticed that a barely visible IGN logo was included due to the artwork being taken from the si
The other class in XCOM 2 that isn't an improvement on the one that preceded it. The Grenadier has some utility and a lot of great damage options. Grenades are extremely helpful during a playthrough to get chip damage and destroy co
Other Quantic Dream games available for PC would also count in this entry. Initially a PS3 exclusive , Heavy Rain eventually made its way to Slg pc games. Though quick-time events are a part of the gameplay, a majority of the game is making decisions and cinematics . One's appreciation of these games varies depending on personal tastes. They are all technologically impressive, so seeing them on a handheld will be a novelty regardless of the games' qual
With over 30,000 games available to purchase on Steam, there are a plethora of options for gamers to choose from to try on this new console. As there is such a staggering amount of options available, players will want to find games that would work especially well on the new handheld to try fi
As this list will show, cover art is similar to band names. The Beatles and Rolling Stones may not sound great on paper, but they're iconic because they're attached to iconic bands. The same can be said for box art, where the game's quality affects how the cover art is percei
However, the cover art for The Last of Us has had the opposite effect in some ways. Because of how accustomed gamers are to The Last of Us ' post-apocalyptic world and the characters Joel and Ellie, it's easy to forget how striking the game's cover art is, with a young girl carrying a large rifle and a man with a gas mask seemingly unfazed by the car next to them with a dead body ins
The Chosen can be defeated by performing a series of covert operations and a tough final assassination mission, a process which takes some time. Don't take too long, though: these aren't static enemies. The longer they exist, the more strength they have. That isn't to say they don't have weakness either, as they follow a nemesis system that takes heavy inspiration from the likes of Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor . They're easily the most difficult addition to the game, but they add plenty of flavor to the experience and much satisfaction when they're finally taken d
