Ocarina of Time creator Eiji Aonuma has offered a heart felt apology for the games notoriously troublesome Water Temple.

“The Water Temple in the Ocarina of Time was notorious for being very tough to conquer. I am most sorry that it was not easy for you to put on and take off the heavy boots; that all the time you had to visit the inventory.”

“I am very sorry about that. I should have made it much easier to switch to the heavy boots.”

As you all know by now, Mama Soul joined us on wednesday when Zelda and I went to the New Moon premiere. I promised a whole post about all the awesome stuff she said, so here we go!
A few days previous to the big event she watched a special about the Twilight-fans in between her nightly work (No, she’s not a prostitute, she’s a nurse). That was when she saw for the first time that there were Teams -Team Edward, Team Jacob, Team Switzerland- and that many people were wearing their Team-shirts to the screenings.

Mama Soul's dream-shirt

So that was probably when she decided she wanted to have a Team-shirt as well. But she kind of didn’t really get why there were different Teams or what they stood for. She just picked her favorite Twilight movie character and decided she wanted to be on his Team. In the end she did not wear a special shirt to the premiere, but guess whose Team she chose? Mama Soul, one and only official member of Team Charlie! Yep, that’s right! Why not, Charlie’s great, isn’t he? Okay, now follow the comments she made while watching the movie for the first time.

The cliff diving scene. Bella sees Victoria, tries to swim away from her, hits her head and gets unconscious.
Mama Soul: “Uh, that was so obvious, she’s just so clumsy.”

Alice racing through Volterra aka Montepulciano. Mama Soul’s a huge Italy fan and has been there so often I lost count three years ago.
So when you see the city from above she smiles happily and says: “Hey, there in that corner is that cute little store where we once bought that great cheese!”
Uhm, yes mum, that was totally what I was thinking about too…

Edward taking off his shirt and walking out of the shadow.
Mama Soul raises her eyebrows saying: “Well, we’ve already seen that one better. I thought he was supposed to have abs…”

The scene where you see Bella and Edward running through the woods together in their Anne of the green Gables outfits.
Mama Soul: “Oh, this looks like that Brothers Grimm story, Hansel and Gretel getting lost in the woods!”

On the way home in the car: “It was kind of obvious that that Indian guy would transform into a wolf. I already knew this would happen after I saw the first movie.”
Honestly? How did she come to that conclusion after seeing Cathy Hardi’s film only once, not reading any of the books and not even having seen any trailer in order to not spoil her the surprise? And then she starts the following conversation:

Mama Soul: “But Jacob looks awesome, not the face so much, but his body, man he is buff!”
We: “Yes, and he’s only seventeen!”
Me muttering under my breath: “But legal in Georgia.”
Mama Soul: “Yeah, in the movie… but he’s older in real life!”
Zelda and me together: “No, in real life! He only turns eight-teen in february.”
Muttering under our breath: “Wow, embarrassing that we know that… not that we’re counting or something…”

Yummy! The fantabulous after-movie-meal we enjoyed in Mama Soul's kitchen... featuring our Twilight tribute accessories

She laughed throughout the cinema scene with Mike and Jake sitting awkwardly in their seats watching that super-stupid action movie. She laughed about each single dog-joke because hey, Mama Soul just loves dogs. Guess she would love to have Jacob as her son-in-law… just saying. Okay, and to be honest, she made the “OMG it’s so cheesy I think I must throw up” gesture. But only four times. That’s not often considering that the movie was kind of cheesy in some parts.

Wanna know what Mama Soul predicted as the ending of the Twilight saga? I’ll tell you in a few days. It’s probably the funniest thing anyone ever said to me about the whole Twilight business, so don’t miss it! Zelda laughed her ass off  when I told her and I want to do this great quote justice. Therefor I will feature this one in a special post. Sorry! But hey, it’s worth the wait, promise!

Mas apesar do trabalho, a gente joga lá na redação da Nintendo World. Olha só o que a gente anda testando por lá.

Zelda and I made it! We finally saw New Moon! Yesterday we went to the premiere here with a couple of friends and Mama Soul. We saw some people wearing Twilight-shirts, a couple of Twimoms and even a Twidad. I didn’t even know they exist until yesterday… And a lot of girls wearing plaid. Coincidence? A subtle tribute to Rob? Who knows? (I do!) Our premiere outfit? A blue blouse just like book-Bella, Ray Bans like Edward and the original Bella-bracelet from Italy (Great story concerning that one, I’ll tell you soon in another post!). So today we’re gonna present you our New Moon review part 1. Part 2 will follow soon… and include a lot more details cause we’re gonna see the movie about 23 more times before writing that. Just in case you haven’t seen the film yet (You better got a good excuse for that!) and want to have the real surprise when watching it for the first time: SPOILER ALARM! Starting now and ending at the end of this post. So here we go:

Taylor Lautner sometimes wears a shirt in New Moon...

First of all, down with Cathy the Cougar! Chris Weitz, do you want to marry me? What an enormous improvement in comparison to Twilight! I’m not going as far as to say it was the perfect movie, but honestly Chris, you’re so down with the kids! Or rather the Twilight-fans. Or Zelda and me. This is how vampires should look when they sparkle! Like diamonds and not that ringing and tinkling in the woods crap. Two minutes into the movie and I already love Charlie so much. How sweet when he almost started to sing, or when he came to look after Bella when she was screaming in her bed. We even got the names of the months after Edward left. Something I had really been hoping for!

... but most of the time doesn't, because he shouldn't!

And the e-mails for Alice idea to show how Bella feels, what an incredibly clever move of you, Chris! And I loved that Harry Clearwater, the king of homemade fish-fry, died as a hero trying to protect Charlie from Victoria. And oh how Rachelle looked awesome with her flaming red hair. Zelda totally liked the cliff diving scene. When Bella first sees Victoria under water and then there’s Edward beside her… epic! And the funny stuff, like the cinema scene or the “You like older women, huh?”. Not exactly as funny as the spider-monkey line but still… And Jasper and Emmett were so much… uhm, cooler, cuter? Whatever, better anyway!

Ok, there were a few things that were kind of strange and I think we got to mention them as well in order to try and stay honest. Sometimes it was a bit too cheesy. Cheesier than the books. I even felt kind of 2nd-hand-embarrassed for Edward being so hardcore romantic. I noticed that Edward’s abs seem to have looked a lot better on the pics from the set we saw a few months ago. In the actual Volterra scene, they were barely visible. So what happened there? I mean, isn’t Edward supposed to have at least a six-pack? Jacob even got an eight-pack, so in comparison to that… sorry to say Rob, but Taylor wins this one!

Caius Malfoy and his Volturi friends

Did anyone else think Marcus and Caius looked like Denethor, Faramir’s dad from Lord of the Rings, and  Draco Malfoy’s older brother? Did the Volturi fight scene between Edward and Demetri remind you of the Gandalf vs. Saruman battle in the LOTR?

And there’s another thing. Not your fault Chris, this is just how Stephenie Meyer wrote Bella and the reason why this girl sometimes annoys the crap out of me in the books: Who do you think you are, Bella “don’t hurt him, kill me instead” Swan? Why should the Volturi treat Edward’s life against yours? You’re nothing but a weak clumsy girl, okay? Sorry to say, but deal with it!

All in all, we got everything we wanted… Well, almost. Taylor Lautner wore a shirt in at least three scenes. BIG FAIL! Sorry Chris… But don’t worry, Zelda and I enjoyed the movie a lot. We’re probably going to watch it over and over again for the next few weeks… Only because of important blog journalism of course so that we can present you a more detailed review soon. Wanna know what Mama Soul said about New Moon? She made so many great hilarious comments that she will get her own post this week. Don’t miss it! There’s no better way to watch this film than sitting in between her and Zelda. We’ve got enough stuff to write about for at least four weeks, so keep coming back to check what else we got in store for you!

Off to call Zelda and ask her when we’re going to the cinema again

Personnellement, je n’ai jamais réussi à construire un truc potable avec des Lego. Que ce soit un véhicule, une base pour mes personnages ou des créations abstraites, tout ce que mes mains parvenaient à assembler ressemblait vaguement à un tas difforme.

Alors quand je vois cette plaque Link et Zelda (époque NES) réalisée par Naneto avec les petites briques de couleur de notre enfance, forcément, je pleure. Parce que c’est beau, et parce que je me dis que j’étais vraiment bidon quand j’étais jeune. D’autant plus quand je tombe la minute suivante sur la casquette New Era réalisée par Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, que je trouve tout simplement dingue. C’est décidé, à Noël je rachète une boîte de briques.

Da vent’anni a questa parte, ogni volta che la Nintendo annuncia un nuovo episodio di “The Legend of Zelda”, si vengono a creare aspettative ed ansie elevate. Ogni episodio che vedeva protagonista il nostro eroe in verde si è rilevato un pezzo di storia dei videogames, quindi è giusto che gli utenti se ne aspettino altro.

Le premesse sono veramente ottime per il seguito del precedente successo “The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass”. La prima novità riguarda l’assenza della barca come mezzo di spostamento; infatti ora vedremo Link nei panni di un ferroviere, che userà il suo mezzo di locomozione per spostarsi in tutta Hyrule.

L’anticipazione scioccante che la Nintendo ha fornito è LA MORTE DI ZELDA nei primissimi istanti di gioco!! Infatti durante una cerimionia, in cui Link avrebbe dovuto ricevere il titolo di Ingegnere Reale proprio dalla Principessa, il cancelliere Cole si impadronisce del suo corpo per poter resuscitare il Demone Supremo. D’ora in poi sarete accompagnati dallo spirito di Zelda, che vi accompagnerà nell’avventura. Il resto non è dato saperlo, però probabilmente il solito lieto fine è proprio dietro l’angolo…..

La presenza dello spirito di Zelda aggiunge molto al gameplay. Infatti vi aiuterà nella risoluzione degli enigmi e nell’esplorazione dei classici Dungeon.

FINALE

Come detto ogni Zelda ha il suo fascino e sicuramente Spirit Tracks non sarà da meno. La Nintendo ha voluto mantenere l’eccellente struttura del gameplay di Phantom Hourglass, dove il touch screen faceva da padrone, ma nel contempo ha voluto dare una nuova svolta alla trama, che potrebbe dare nuova linfa ad una serie già nella storia.

DATA DI USCITA: 11 dicembre 2009

There are many sounds which make me smile, and a few that make me laugh out loud.  However, there is one noise that generates a response in me, like no other, and I have just heard it coming from my TV in the living room.

The sound is my old friend Link, a boy garbed in green, opening another treasure chest – the very sound that warms my heart and cradles my soul and there is a new adventure coming, just in time for Christmas.  The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, and that is all the information I need to make my purchase.

I don’t know why I love Zelda so much.  I’m quite  sure that I’ve only ever finished one of the many games available, but it still resonates with me as one of the greatest games series ever created.  Sure, it could be argued that they’re all predominantly the same game, re-hashed and re-skinned.  In fact, I would argue for that very point.  Like an old friend you’ve not seen for a while, with whom you strike up a conversation, and it’s like you’ve never been apart.  That is one of the reasons why for me, Zelda is  the king of the action RPG, but how would I cut it going up against the original title released in Japan in 1986?

Where the legend began.

I have to say that the original NES title  is just as much fun now, as it was then.  I have lost the original map so I have been mapping my own progress, with only one rule to abide by whilst I play. No looking at any game guides or FAQ’s for help – what idiot came up with that idea?

It’s amazing how ‘open world’ this game feels, long before the term existed.  You can go anywhere, as there are only a few areas that you can’t access from the start of the game and I even strolled into the seventh dungeon before I’d found the sixth – which is where I am at present.  The games have become more linear over time, as the stories have become more heavily involved, but there are always numerous side quests in the later games to keep things interesting.

One thing that certainly stands out is how hard this game is, and it has made me realise that the series has become easier as the stories have progressed.  I have replayed the sixth dungeon numerous times now, having to go back up to the Hyrule overworld, grinding my way through many battles to collect more Rupees, to afford more medicine, so I can have another crack at the dungeon.  Really tough stuff.

Who lost the map?

I can only surmise that my fourteen year old self had more skill, agility and patience than I do now, which is a shame, and perhaps the only Zelda game that I have finished will now finally defeat me, whilst laughing in my face.

Perhaps that is the point.  Perhaps I don’t want to finish it.  I never want it to end.  I want to wait a few months, then replay it again from the beginning like I have done with so many of the Zelda games.

Perhaps it does just come down to the fact that I really love opening chests.

The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks will be released in the UK on December 11^th 2009 for the Nintendo DS.

Today’s the day. We thought it might never come but now it’s finally here. Today Zelda and I are going to see New Moon. Wow, just writing it down makes me almost go completely fangirl-crazy… But of course this is a special occasion and you cannot simply walk into the theatre, sit down, watch the movie and then leave again. For something this huge you need to be prepared properly! So this is why we came up with a “ten things we absolutely need for the New Moon premiere” checklist. We tried to pick only stuff you can hide away in your handbag easily so no one will envy you because you thought it all out so well… uhm, actually we thought it out so well, but whatever. So now we proudly present the ultimate New Moon premiere survival package aka everything Zelda and I are trying to stuff in our handbags before we leave tonight.

I may or may not have disguised our New Moon premiere tickets as swan lake ballet tickets...

1. Our tickets! Most important of all and therefor our number one. Because if we forget them we’re going to get into huge trouble when we try to sneak in undetected… I got them four weeks ago just to make sure we get the best places, the VIP-seats so to speak.

2. A camera so we can take pictures of ourselves kissing the Edward and Jacob cutouts all the crazy fangirls, wearing their best Twilight-outfits, which are sure to be there.

3. A paper-bag in case we’re going to hyperventilate because of all the half-naked smoking hot guys in New Moon aka the wolfpack. Okay, and maybe also because of Edward in the Volterra “I wanna get killed because I sparkle” scene.

Are you already hyperventilating? Because I know that I am...

4. A pen and

5. A note block so we can write everything important down in order to write an amazing post tomorrow with at least 100 details you couldn’t remember after seeing the movie for the first time. But in reality we will write zero stuff in it, absolutely nothing at all. Because we will be so occupied watching Chris Weitz’ masterpiece that we will completely forget about the awesome note blocks we brought. And then we will have to write a typical “What we thought while seeing the movie for the first time” post and go to the cinema again to catch up on all the details… which we will, trust!

6. Our Team Edward (probably Zelda) and Team Jacob (probably Soul) hankies in case we have to cry during the whole breakup scene (*false, we don’t have special hankies but I bet if you search through the internet you’re sure to find someone who will sell them*)

7. Our special Tayrob tribute movie meal consisting of a bottle of Heineken (for Rob) and a bag full of meat-patties (for Taylor). Yeah, who wants popcorn if one can have this?

8. A pillow to muffle up a.) your sobs during the breakup scene and the “Bella’s a zombie now” part b.) your screams during the birthday / jasper’s hungry scene, the Volterra scene and everytime Taylor Lautner or any other member of the wolfpack (ahem…Alex Meraz…ahem) takes off his shirt and shows us his awesome abs for basically no reason. Hey, you don’t hear me complaining…

The Rob Pattinson plaid earmuff collection

9. Very important: earmuffs! Just in case ,plaid earmuffs,Rob Pattinson collectioneveryone goes completely fangirl-crazy about the huge amount of abs shown in the movie and you can’t bear it any longer without becoming deaf. Simply put your earmuffs on and enjoy the picture on the big screen. Best get them out every time as soon as Taylor / Jacob’s hands go anywhere near the rim of his shirt…

10. Okay, this one does definitely not fit into our handbags but I got to mention it anyway: my mom! Yes, my mom will come with us to watch the movie. And since she’s one of those people who absolutely hate spoilers, she hasn’t even seen the trailer yet. And didn’t have time to read the book. And therefor has zero idea what’s going to happen. Another reason why I absolutely need number one, the camera. So that I can take super sneaky pics of her anytime something unsuspected (well, for her at least…) happens. Like Jasper trying to eat Bella. Or Edward leaving. Or Jacob taking his shirt off (probably not so unsuspected after the 5th time…). Or like Paul and Jacob transforming into wolves. That’s probably my favorite, cause she doesn’t even know there are wolves at all in that movie… This is gonna be great! I will write a post about that for sure! Souls mum freaking out during New Moon, coming soon… for sure!

Oracle Chronicles Ages Ep. 18 – Cranium Lair 3

by kirsybuu (Category: Entertainment)

So I arrived home from work today and checked my post, and sure enough sitting there, in my mailbox, was the latest issue of Game Informer – the 200th issue no less.  In honour of their 200th issue, the team over at Game Informer decided to publish their list of the top 200 games of all time, so I thought I’d share some of the results with you.

Don’t panic, I’m not going to list all 200 with their reasoning, you’ll need to buy the magazine if you want that, but I thought I’d pull out a couple of highlights…

So, let’s begin at the beginning…  The top game of all time, the ultimate in gaming, the best there ever was?  Read on to find out…

Taking the top spot and pushing out all the rest was, from 1987, arguably unsurprisingly, The Legend of Zelda.

I realise there may be many cries of “Oh but we’ve come so far since then!  What about X, Y or Z?!” but they make some pretty good points in their justification.  As they stated, the Legend of Zelda is responsible for the creation of many lifelong gamers, not to mention future game developers.  This blast from the past may seem primitive in its style now, but it provided the starting point for many future developments, and for the 80’s it was pretty impressive! Shigeru Miyamoto can rest easy knowing that he did indeed create a level of greatness in the gaming industry that others could at that time barely aspire to, and that many have since credited this game as their inspiration.

So what else made it?  In their top 5 are others such as Super Mario Bros (#2), Tetris (#3), GTA III (#4), and Half Life 2(#5) – all very well known and pretty well respected games – it’s almost enough for me to have another bash at Half Life 2, which if I’m honest, never really grabbed me.  “But,” I hear you wail, “where is Mass Effect?!?!”  I know, I know, that was my response too!  So I scoured the lists, I turned page after page until I found it, and they do indeed bill it as “one of the greatest interactive tales we’ve ever experienced” but sadly, and clearly in an horrendous misprint, it only comes in at number 58!!  Despite my now clear disagreement with their positions, I read on anyway to see what else they had come up with…

Perhaps somewhat oddly, given their reasoning for Zelda winning overall, Ms Pac-Man made it into the top 10, whereas Pac-Man itself was held back at a mere 52nd place.  The various Final Fantasies pretty much all made it in, with FFIII the best of the bunch apparently at #8.  The various Mario games all seemed to rank pretty high, with good ol’ Sonic not getting a look in til #34.  Otherwise there are very few surprises, though one or two did make me raise an eyebrow…

Perhaps the biggest shocker personally (other than ME’s clearly incorrect placement) was Batman: Arkham Asylum.  Yes, I know it’s Batman, and yes, I realise to those who are not very discerning that automatically makes it super cool, and yes, the graphics were fantastic, but dear lord the gameplay is shocking.  One button takes out 5 enemies, and to me, that’s just not what this sort of game should be about, so seeing it at #104, above the much loved (by some) Borderlands for instance was a bit of a surprise.  Modern Warfare 2, for all the hype, only made it in at #181, and Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! was in the top 20!?!

So there you have it, a very brief summary of a very lengthy article.  I have no doubt that others will have their opinions on where things should or should not have been included, and which games should have been higher than others, so buy the magazine, read the full article and feel free to let me know what congratulations or exclamations I’ve overlooked, but don’t think you’ll change my mind on poor old Shepard…

A couple of months back, Felix penned a curious article listing the top ten gaming allies: those staunch supporters, wondrous wingmen and brilliant bros who never failed to watch your back, and you can find said article here. It got me thinking, however; how many times have TV screens found themselves with a controller shaped hole through their centres as the result of some serious NPC irritation? There were a couple of Felix’s fondly loved sidekicks that I couldn’t help but disagree with, and suddenly a Top Ten started forming in my mind.

More often than not, the hapless characters alongside you are just well crafted bullseyes for enemy fire, or instructors with less appeal than a sat-nav voiced by Hitler. For every Aeris there’s a Natalya; for every Dante and Nero there’s a Jak and Daxter; for every Army of Two there’s a compelling character witness to make the case for saving the world on your own. These are those most insidious of nemeses: these are the cretins who try their hardest to ruin everything….and they’re supposed to be on our side!

Want to check out the Top 10? Hit the link to read the rest at Dealspwn.com

The Holiday 2009 issue of Nintendo Power magazine is now out and includes a handful of pieces I wrote.  Awesome! Not sure how it happened, but two of my Community articles made it in this time. The first is a piece on Papercraft Museum curator Haywan Chiu’s simply outstanding life-sized papercraft Link from Twilight Princess. I was blown away by his meticulous work, and you can check out the inside scoop on how he put it all together in the article. Seriously. Nice job, dude. The second piece is on Matt Laboone’s giant SNES controller. So cool. This issue also includes my first review for the magazine, Bookworm DS, which I’m psyched about. I have many other Community pieces in the pipeline, so stay tuned.

So I wanna get this tattoo, but I can’t decide where for sure.  I’m thinking about going just above my knee and doing it the same size, but I could obviously make it smaller and put it almost anywhere.  Any thoughts?

E um novo Top 10 está chegando dessa vez trazendo uma questão 100% pessoal: Meus jogos favoritos, foi muito dificil fazer esta lista (menos o 1º lugar obviamente) já que existem tantos games classicos, profundos, ou simplismente divertidos dos quais já joguei; então confira os meus favoritos e já pense nos seus em mais um Top 10!

10º Legends of Zelda A Link To The Past

Aiaiai, Zelda, Zelda, Zelda… bom como posso descrever o que sempre achei dessa serie? Chata… serio, não sou o maior fã de Zelda do mundo, menos ainda da Nintendo, a unica serie que gosto pra caramba é da gata da Samus: Metroid.

Mas porque pombas A Link To The Past tá nessa lista você está pensando? Bom, eu também não faço a minima ideia, nunca gostei muito da ideia da serie Zelda mas quando resolvi dar uma chance para este jogo já antigo ainda para SNES mas que é classico (por pedidos da minha prima) eu senti uma certa… magia! serio, gostei mesmo do jogo, dar espadadas em soldados, ganhar alguns poderezinhos legais, reunir a Triforce, tudo isso é muito legal nesse jogo! Lutar contra ganon e vence-lo é ainda mais gratificante; e por esta magia que o jogo me fez ele ganhou o 10º lugar em meu coração.

Então por que não jogou mais? você pode estar pensando, bem eu até tentei, peguei alguns mas em todos tive a mesma sensação: ZZZZzzzzZZzzZZZZZ…. E até hoje me sinto um pouco estranho por Zelda me ter hipnotizado, bom vamos ao nono!!!

9º Guitar Hero 3

Cara que jogo foda!! Quando vi pela primeira vez tive a sensação: “Meu isso ai deve ser uma porcaria” nunca fiquei tão feliz por estar enganado, Guitar Hero é divertido demais, um jogo viciante, claro não é pra todo mundo mas é muito show, ficar acertando as notas cada vez mais dificeis em musicas que não saem mais da minha cabeça é a melhor coisa que tem!

E olha que eu sou um cara que não gosta de jogar um jogo nem duas vezes seguidas, sabe quando você gaha mais armas, munição infinita ou qualquer outra coisa que o jogo ofereça? Gosto de terminar o modo historia na raça e printo, me glorificar no espelho por ter vencido um jogo realmente foda! Mas este Guitar Hero foi o unico jogo da minha vida em que sempre que alguem me chamar pra uma partida ou sempre ue meder na telha eu vou topar de primeira! Coisa que nunca faria com um jogo de futebol, por favor, não me chamem pra jogar fifa tá certo, eu não gosto nem de jogar de verdade quanto mais com bonequinhos quadrados.

8º God of War

Estava pensando em colocar o Devil may Cry aqui mas eu vi o quanto esse jogo me fez bem em joga-lo, tipo Kratos é um cara fodido da vida que matou a mulher e a filha, vendeu a alma pro Aries, virou putinha dos deuses só que tudo o que o cara quer é o perdão de Zeus; coisa que ele pode fazer derrotando o cara que tem o poder de sua alma, Aries, não percebe a linda metafora neste jogo?

Além de ser um dos melhores jogos de pancadaria que já joguei com lutas sangrentas, e humor negro burlesco God of War mostra a vida de algumas pessoas que fazem de tudo para ter o que querem mas depois olham a cagada que fizeram ebuscam por redenção, mas sempre existe algo para impedir, uma barreira que parece intransponivel mas que sempre pode ser quebrada! Cara fui profundo nessa ein! vamos logo mudar pra 7ª ou vou começar a chorar feito um fã do NX Zero… é brincadeira viu pessoal, nada contra não!

7º Megaman Zero 3

Ao contrario de Zelda sempre fui meio fã de Megaman, o jogo é dificil,  é estrategico, o personagem é legal pra caramba, tem um carisma danado pra mim e uma historia sem sentido nenhum que ainda sim pode ser profunda e divertida; meu esse é um segundo Sonic pra mim!

E apesar de adorar o megaman prefiro como muitos o Zero, e a melhor coisa que a Capcom fez foi criar uma serie só pra ele depois dos legais X, Megaman Zero é divertido de mais, não conta com armaduras ou poderes é só você e sua eximia habilidade de dar pulos incriveis e matar chefes impusiveis! Podia ter escolhido qualquer um dos 4 jogos da serie pra colocar aqui, porque o 3? por que é muito foda, o primeiro chefe é um robo gigantesco e coisa só vai subindo de nivel, você luta contra uma versão burlesca dele no final do jogo, depois uma versão ultimate de um robo que tem as faces de Megaman, Zero e Axl da serie Megaman X (qual é só eu percebi isso?) e no fim o unico cara que pode mesmo derrotar Zero, o verdadeiro Zero! Demais!!!

6º Call of Duty Modern Warfare 1 e 2

Essa serie é sensacional, realmente sem palavras, os jogos não tem muito enredo mesmo, mas o gameplay é exelente, os graficos são supimpa (mais o que é supimpa?), e é simplesmente outro jogo que me deixou hipnotizado ao começar a jogar até o fim deles que são sempre sensacionais de sua propria forma!

Porque eu coloquei os 2 juntos ao inves de escolher um só? O Top 10 é meu né, e eses jogos são sensacionais, a fase do Rio de Janeiro é incrivel, os caras gritam em portugues meu, muito massa veio! bom, não tenho muito mais a falar desse então vamos pro proximo:

5º Resident Evil 4

Poxa é Resident Evil cara! tinha que estar aqui; mas quero deixar claro de novo, essa não é uma das minhas series favoritas, sempre gostei de Resident mas passei a olha-la com outros olhos quando coloquei a 4ª edição no meu PS2, o jogo trazia toda a atmosfera de terror e suspense; o jogo dá um friozinho legal na barriga, os encapuzados falando coisas estranhas dão medo, e quem não deu um pulo quando o maluco da serra eletrica decapitou você? Esse é um jogo em 1 milhão, é muito bom, quase perfeito! E fica muito melhor quando nós zeramos ele do lado do melhor amigo como foi meu caso!

Por que não o 5 já que dá até pra jogar de 2? Porque não gostei muito dele; bom é um jogo muito bom, mas te entrega toda a historia e é muito curto; não dá mais o frio na barriga, o jogo se passa de dia na maior parte do tempo, Resident é a noite caramba! Resident Evil 4 é muito melhor mesmo que tenha graficos mais quadrados e não seja realistico; mas sempre digo e repito, é videogame, não é pra ser realistico! Vamos pro proximo!

4º Halo 3

Terminar um bom ao lado do melhor amigo é uma das coisas boas da vida! e pude fazer isso ainda melhor em Halo 3 já que também da pra jogar de 2! Cara Halo é sensacional, Master Chief é sensacional, o Arbitro é um alien muito foda!

O jogo é ação do começo ao fim, armas incriveis inimigos com 3x mais massa que você fazem sua cabeça pirar com tanta explosão ao lado, em portugue ainda pra entender melhor a historia é o que complementa a receita! Halo 3 é um dos melhores jogos que já joguei no Xbox 360 e também está no meu coração, só não é melhor do que:

3º Batman Arkham Asylum

É o Batman e pronto!  O jogo foi e é incrivelmente bom pra mim, porrada, ataques furtivos, clima sombrio e finalmente um jogo que honre meu heroi favorito simplismente tem de estar entre os meus favoritos por obrigação!

O jogo simplismente é bom, ninguem pode reclamar além de mega fanzassos de RPG que passam o dia inteiro grudados na tela evoluindo seus personagens pra porcaria nenhuma, Arkhma Asylum é o estilo de jogo que eu adoro: linear, porradaria, humor (o coringa é muito show) e tudo o que faz de um jogo bom! Só não é meu favorito pois os proximos 2 estão no meu coração pra sempre!

2º Streets of Rage

Muitos preferiram com certeza o segundo mas  eu tenho muitas boas lembranças com esse jogo aqui! Primeiro que ele foi o primeiro jogo de videogame que eu joguei na vida, aprendi tudo que sei hoje tentando zerar ele e o melhor, eu zerei Streets of Rage com meu pai! Hoje em dia ele não gosta mais de jogar, mas a culpa de eu ser um viciado como eu sou agora foi dele!

Agente jogava Golden Axe, Coluns, Sonic, Robocop e muitos outros mas meu favorito sempre será o primeiro jogo que terminei Streets of Rage, me lembrarei pra sempre de quando meu pai e eu pulavamos na frente da TV após derrotar o mardito Mr X! Vamos antes que eu chore como fã de Crepusculo… é brincadeira viu pessoal, nada contra não!

E agora o mais esperado… o primeiro lugar vai para:::::

1º Sonic 3 & Knuckles

Ah, esse aqui muita gente que visita o blog já sabia (aposto que você sabia Orochi!) Sonic é minha serie favorita de jogos, adoro a velocidade, o vento nos cabelos, esse é um personagem marcante, um jogo que demorei pra terminar no meu mega drive-sega cd, joguei Sonic CD até quebrar o visor do console, Sonic 2 foi o proximo, a ultima fase era muito fodastica, não tinha moeda meu! Mas nenhum jogo ganha de Sonic 3 e Knuckles (a versão que vem com 2 jogos em um só) e sua determinação em peguar o Robotnick! Serio o Sonic não para nenhum minuto nesse jogo, sei que em todo jogo linear o heroi não para mesmo mas aqui você em cut-scenes todo o trajeto que o ouriço e seu parceiro raposa fazem por toda a ilha lutando contra Knuckles e Eggman a todo momento olha só:

Ele da floresta e cai na agua, vai prum parque, a parte montanhosa da ilha, é jogado na neve, encontra a base do eggman e jogado em uma floresta de cogumelos, vai pra nave do Robotnick, derrota knuckles, ele te ajuda, vai pro espaço pra virar hyper sonic e meter um pé na bunda mais que bem dado no eggman! Esse jogo é foda demais demais! Peguar as 14 esmeraldas não é trabalho facil! mas também não é impossivel e é mais do que glorificante!

Sonic 3 & Knuckles é meu jogo favorito de todos os tempos e sempre será, nada de cidades enjoadas, lobisomens, camera horrivel, apenas grafico bonito, jogabilidade refinada, velocidade e um bom motivo pra peguar o Eggman e salvar a Ilha Flutuante! Sensacional!

Menções honrosas

Metroid Fusion

Outro jogo muito bom, como falei no começo metroid é minha serie favorita da Nintendo, Fusion é uma exelente aventura com muita ação, nenhuma enrolação é direta e reta! Só não entrou no Top 10 por que é meu 11º jogo favorito!

Devil May Cry 3

Dante é um cara muito legal, zuador pra caramba e está em otima forma nesse jogo, o titulo é muito dificil mas com um pouco de empenho é possivel zera-lo apos peguar a pratica! Por mais que eu realmente gosto do 4 este aqui é bem mais divertido!

The Champions League

É como uma mãe coruja, tudo o que você mesmo faz é lindo! este foi o jogo que nós da Games-X fizemos e eu particularmente achei muito bacana, e não percam em breve uma nova versão melhorada dele certo!

Street Fighter Alpha

Street Fighter é uma serie de briga de primeira linha meu, Alpha mostrou todos os golpes e combos exagerados e toda a potencia dos melhores lutadores dom mundo, claro nossa versão (Street Fighter Mugen Tournament) também é excelente!

Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks

Sempre gostei de MK, quando vi um jogo de aventura +  sangue + multiplayer co-op +historia inspirada no meu titulo favorito da seris (MK2) = Meu 15º jogo favorito em toda a historia!

___________________________

Bom pessoal espero que tenham gostado do meu texto hoje, e també mdos meus jogos claro, me falem o que acharam! e coloquem seus jogos favoritos também!!

Claro que ainda tenho muitos outros jogos aqui no coração, mas este aqui não é um Top 100 então eu fico por aqui! Abraços e até a próxima!

Só pra fechar, uma imagem bem legal que achei quando pesquisava Sonic 3:

Wenn man im Bus oder im Zug sitzt, auf etwas wartet, oder gerade auf dem Heimweg ist, dann ist die beste Möglichkeit, Zeit totzuschlagen eindeutig Gaming. Wenn man dann noch seine liebsten Retro-Titel unterwegs zocken kann, dann fängt der Spaß erst so richtig an. Ich liste euch heute ein paar meiner Retro to go Games auf.

Dragonball Z Buu's Fury

Mein erster Tip ist gleichzeitig ein Geheimtipp. Mit Dragonball Z Buu’s Fury ist nämlich eines meiner liebsten GBA Spiele erschienen. Das tolle Action Kampfsystem mit den Rollenspielelementen und der Dragonball Saga rund um Buu macht diesen Titel für mich zu einen wirklichen Hit. Ich habe viel Zeit mit diesem Titel verbracht, auch nach dem Story Ending war es spaßig, die Charaktere hochzuleveln, die Welten noch ein bisschen zu erforschen und neue Fertigkeiten zu lernen. Sehr cool: Man kann zwischen allen Dragonball Z Charakteren, die in diesem Teil der Saga tätig sind, spielen und wechseln nach Lust und Laune.

Final Fantasy IV Advance

Ein weiteres Rollenspiel darf hier in diesem Artikel dabei sein. Dabei handelt es sich um Final Fantasy IV Advance, welches ich schon seit SNES Zeiten gut kenne. Damals hat mich das Spiel schon begeistert, heute laufe ich noch gerne mit dem Gameboy Advance herum und spiel den Teil. Busfahrten werden so nie langweilig und auch der ein oder andere Sitznachbar ist sofort still und schaut gespannt auf dem Bildschirm um die sofort ergreifende Story mitzubekommen, oder die toll gemachten Kämpfe mitzuverfolgen.

Klar, es gibt noch viele andere Final Fantasy’s auf dem GBA, aber die müssen nicht alle genannt werden. Final Fantasy Tactics Advance etc. sind alles wirklich gute Titel, aber das hier ist einfach das beste Handheld Game der Reihe!

Mega Drive Collection (PSP)

Um auch eine gelungene Collection zu erwähnen, bringen wir diese mit ein. Schon allein die zwei Phantasy Stars (II und IV) berechtigen den Kauf dieser Collection allemal. Die anderen Titel sind auch wirklich gut. Wer mehr Info’s zu den einzelnen Titeln will, sollte einfach auf Amazon nachschauen…

Castlevania - Aria of Sorrow

Auf sämtlichen Handhelds ist Castlevania nun schon erschienen, aber auf keinem konnte es mich mehr überzeugen. Aria of Sorrow ist eines der wenigen Titel, dass die Elemente von Videospielen so gut verbindet wie sonst. Die RPG Elemente und das gut umgesetzte Metroidvania Prinzip, sowie die Liebe zum Detail seitens Konami machen den Titel unheimlich gut. Man spielt ausnahmsweise keinen Belmont und peitscht auch nicht in der Gegend herum, stattdessen sammelt man verschiedene Waffen und Seelen und läuft im Schloss von Graf Drakula umher, besiegt gigantische Bossgegner und erkundet die Umgebung.

Meiner Meinung nach eignet dieser Teil sich sowohl für lange als auch für kurze Sessions, da man jederzeit in Speicherräumen sein Spiel absichern kann, jedoch auch einfach fortfahren kann.

The Legend of Zelda - The Minish Cap

Schade dass ich Minish Cap erst jetzt nachhole. Denn hätte ich dieses Zelda Abenteuer früher gekannt, wäre ich wohl öfter mit dem früheren Bus gefahren,  um dann vor der Schule sitzend Zelda zu spielen. Stattdessen darf ich jetzt daheim spielen, weil ansonsten keine Zeit für das langwierige Adventure bleibt.

Ich habe übrigens bewusst zu Minish Cap gegriffen, da mir dieser Teil von den Handheld Zelda’s am besten gefallen hat, neben Phantom Hourglass. Aber Phantom Hourglass ist noch kein Retro Game, von daher…

Pokémon - Silberne Edition

Diese Videospielreihe prägte mein Leben als Gamer. Dank ihr spiele ich jetzt Rollenspiele, durch sie hab’ ich lesen gelernt und mit ihr gehe ich gerne auch heute noch aus dem Haus. Zwar nehme ich, um nicht mit dem klobigen Kultklumpen Gameboy aufzufallen, lieber meinen GBA mit, allerdings kann es schon oft passieren, dass genau dieses Spiel im Slot steckt. Die unheilmich gute Spielmechanik packt einen unheimlich gut, man kann allerdings auch jederzeit speichern und dann ausschalten.

Wer mehr über die Pokémon Reihe in Erfahrung bringen möchte, kann sich auch gleich die Retro-Perspektive dazu durchlesen. Hier hat Edgar mit mir über die gesamte Pokémon Reihe gechattet und wir konnten neben hilfreichen Details auch einiges an Material und Zusatzwissen bieten.

Hier zur Retro-Perspektive!

Jetzt seid ihr an der Reihe, was sind eure Lieblingsspiele für Handhelds? Wo und wann spielt ihr? Postet eure Geschichten einfach in die Comments!

Spacesick gold button featured in Button-O-matic Series 10

Have you seen the Zelda-rupee-esque button in the Button-O-matic Currency Series?  Ohio-based Spacesick designs throw back to a simpler time when there were only eight bits.  About all of the Busy Beaver designs:

It blows my mind how everyone scampered off with the same theme and then came back with something completely unique to their personality! And how amazing do these suckers look as a set?

The Legend of Link’s Distractions

This has got to be the weirdest and definitly most awsome musical instrument I’ve seen in a while. I usually don’t have an musical instrument fetish, but this one totally stole my heart. I know little about it, other than it’s called a theremin, and that it uses radio waves going through the device and through you body. Obviously you can manipulate the pitch by changing your arms’ distance from the theremin.

I guess this is what they used to make that horribly awsome, yet horribly cliché UFO sound effect from all those low budget thirties science fiction films.

If I were to teach myself one really useless piece of know-how for the rest of my life, it would have to be to learn how to play the theremin. And I want to learn how to play these songs.

There is a new Zelda game in the works, but that wasn’t really that big of a surprise. What is interesting is that developer Shigeru Miyamoto’s has recently revealed that the new Zelda will be a “new experience”, whatever he might mean by that.

Nintendo has realised that the Zelda games’ game mechanics are pretty much recycling of the previous game in a new wrapping. This is, of course, something any player with a bit of a mind of his own has spotted a long time ago. Miyamoto wants to re-invent Zelda for 2010; taking the game in a new direction and, as he puts it, surprise the player.

Question is: do players really want Zelda re-invented?

The Zelda formula is definitly a good one, and it works perfectly still after all these years. It is the same old formula, and has been so since the very fist Zelda game was released, and in my opinion it is a formula that really works for the game. It has polished Skinnerian game mechanics, perhaps one of the very first games that really understood the concept of game psychology.

I have to admit, I’m not sure Nintendo wants to tinker with the basic game mechanics here. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, as the saying goes.

What might this new approach to Zelda be? Are we speaking more role playing elements? Zelda as a more defined action RPG witht he infamous leveling and loot mechanics? Or is it simply a matter of game control, where the Wiimote is used in a more intelligent way than was the case with Twilight Princess?

Your guess is a good as mine, but I doubt we’ll actually recognise any major changes in the core game design. That would be too dangerous for a market where Zelda is not only the name of a game series, but a trademark of a certain type of gameplay. Does Zelda really need to be re-invented?

If it ain’t broke, fixing it could ruin it.

It is hard to start writing about this topic; that is because of several reasons, though one dominates the others: The current video game industry has faded away from imaginative games that much that it is hard no to lose any direction about how to go on. So let me start by simply introducing what said imagination is.

To me, 3D is where everyone´s imagination ran wild. Be it developers, that created these games, or consumers, that gladly bought them. Imagination in terms of video games is not about using a lot of colors or quirky gameplay-features. It is true that my biggest complain about modern, popular video games is that they´re all dark, “cool” shooters or otherwise violent games, with a lot of nice-to-watch cutscenes. These games are missing any kind of imagination, but adding colors isn´t a solution.

Imaginative game design is about creating games that succeed to feature gameplay, level-design, characters and stories that can hold up by themselves. Games that don´t need, or rather, don´t care about popular existing concepts. Other media, like movies or anime, are much better at being imaginative. I´d recommend for you to look into Dennou Coil, Haibane Renmei or Fantastic Children. These anime-shows are that rich of unique, fresh imagination that it´s painful once it´s over. One really great example of such a game was and is the Pokemon-series. Surely, it´s become beyond popular, but when it was released in 1998 (European release), it didn´t care about any other media. There were no movies, books, or games that featured the same spirit as the Pokemon-games. Catch uniquely designed monsters that you have to train to become the best trainer in that peaceful world. Another example would be ICO, that didn´t give a damn about popular design choices. Explore a forsaken castle, help a mysterious girl and fight creepy shadow-monsters. Without a HUD or inventory or mission goals. And then we have my personal pinnacle of imagination that is the Zelda-series. No other popular series continues to shrug off popular design choices like the Zelda-games. These games don´t try to be cool or angsty, they´re not about hardcore-challenge and they´re featuring the weirdest atmosphere in any video games. Exception is Twilight Princess, which unfortunately took design choices of the Lord of the Rings, which may be one reason for why many felt that entry lacked…something.

There are many, many other imaginative games, be it Spyro, Gex: Enter the Gecko or Banjo-Kazooie, but the bottom line is: There was a time in gaming when games dared to be imaginative. Be different. Be themselves. Now, you can hardly find such games, and most of them are smallish download-games that don´t feature the high quality of a big budget game. There are a lot of reasons about why the gaming industry is the way it is today, but at the end it is us, the gamers, that lost something precious. And I have a hard time thinking of something games-related that´s more important than imagination. This industry is headed towards a Hollywood 2.0, and it is both the fault of developers that want to be directors, and gamers that only buy into these huge, massively hyped cinematic games, that things are the way they are. When this years Game of the Year-awards are over, you´ll see them filled with Modern Warfare 2, Uncharted 2 and other titles along these lines. It is the masses that want such a world, but I can but shed an invisible tear about what has become of the world of video games.

Hello!

As some of you may know im a massive computer games nut, and my favourite series hands down is the legend of Zelda!

So to pay tribute to this i painted a little scene from ocarina of time (widely known as the best game ever.)

This is Link vs Volvagia!

I honestly had the most fun in the world painting this

In other news i have some exciting stuff going on over the Christmas period, more about that soon

take care!
