The Nintendo company is continually pushing innovation. The graphics aren't as good on paper as gaming juggernauts like Xbox and PlayStation, yet polished art design makes these games relevant. The Nintendo Switch has accumulated numerous first-party games since its 2017 launch, some of which rank among the publisher's greatest-ever releases. What are the best first-party Switch gam

Judging from the trailers we’ve seen thus far, Breath of the Wild 2 is going to be rather similar to its predecessor - at least in terms of moment-to-moment gameplay. The version of Hyrule we explored in the last game is making a return, with Link stumbling across familiar landmarks and enemies with an outfit and movements we recognise from the last game. I imagine towns have been rebuilt and the region is a little more alive now Calamity Ganon has been vanquished, but the layout is likely similar. Because of this, the way in which we explore this world should remain recognisable, so returning players feel welcome and newcomers aren’t alienated by a sequel that challenges some of its younger sibling’s most daring and creative ideas.

Strange as it might be to describe any Mario game as "underrated," Super Mario 3D World comes very close to fitting that bill and it is frequently in the running for the best game on the system . Released on the underperforming Wii U, Super Mario 3D World is the brilliant sequel to Super Mario 3D Land . While staged like the classic platformers, these games add another dimension, basically serving as a link between Mario 's 2D and 3D e

Like the majority of Breath of the Wild’s design ethos, fashion is always something dictated by the player. Much like Dark Souls, I overlooked stats and buffs in favour of how fabulous something looks, preferring to look amazing as opposed to being a giant chunk of metal who walked with the pace of a snail being drenched in salt. Once I donned the Gerudo gear in the sunny desert sands, I seldom took it off, opting to take on the Divine Beasts in such an outfit because Link looked cute and wasn’t afraid to express an aesthetic that went against the generic definition of masculin

If not, just give me more outfits to wear and more opportunities to make them my own. In terms of character design, Breath of the Wild is easily the best game in Zelda history. Link, Zelda, and the ensemble that stands alongside them were brought to life like never before, and now Nintendo has a chance to build upon that with something even more substantial. Me and millions of others are ready to lose ourselves in Breath of the Wild 2 for months, so I hope the journey is able to accommodate each of our distinct definitions of adventure, whether it be through epic battles, ambitious exploration, or simply looking fabul

If this ends up being the case, a remake of _ Code Veronica _ would not only have far more impact, it could be used as a jumping off point into a full length game that focuses on Chris & Jill putting an end to Umbrella once and for

In the end, if Capcom is truly developing a remake of Resident Evil 4 , then it stands to be the best one out of all the survival horror remakes, given the experience Capcom has gained with the reimaginings of the first three Resident Evil games. Additionally, the Resident Evil 4 remake is rumored to release at least a year after Resident Evil 8 so Capcom could also use that game as a testing ground on what works and what doesn't even if RE8 is an original game. As of the moment, it is still unclear where the rumored Resident Evil 4 remake will be released but it is likely that it will see the light of day on next-generation platforms alongside the

The real wildcard is the new landmass that floats in the sky, a location that could throw everything we know out the window and incorporate a playstyle that is completely different from anything we’ve seen before. Link ( or could it be Ganon or Zelda? ) is capable of morphing through solid objects and flying through the air, so perhaps the need for climbing is obsolete in these circumstances. There are so many questions, but even now it seems Nintendo is acknowledging some of the previous game’s flaws and instead of removing them, is introducing diverse new gameplay ideas that provide other avenues of movement and traversal. Don’t just ditch the encumbrance of climbing in the rain or fragile weapons - instead, provide alternate ways of movement and combat that force you to rethink previously frustrating moments in a new way. Blatant removal feels like cowardice.

_ Code Veronica _ , on the other hand, builds up on plot threads established by the original trilogy in order to tell a story that was meant to set-up a final confrontation with Umbrella. While Chris and Claire don’t have much in the way of character arcs, they contrast nicely with the main villains, leading to surprisingly poignant classist them

Enough time has passed since both the original _ Resident Evil _ remake and _ Resident Evil 5 _ where Wesker isn’t exactly a presence anymore as far as the franchise is concerned. His legacy may be alive, but Wesker is long gone narratively. Which is why remaking _ Code Veronica _ might raise more questions than answers. Modern audiences won’t be able to attach themselves to the intimate history between Chris and Wesker. More importantly, Wesker’s role in _ Code Veronica _ simply has nowhere to go unless Capcom plans on remaking _ Resident Evil 5, _ which seems unlikely given how well the game still se
