As kids a number of us played "The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past" (ALP) for the SNES. Many people (ZeldaQueen included) believe this to be the best of the Zelda games. Now, 22 years later and 1 day later, a direct sequel, or as direct as a Zelda sequel gets, has been released for the 3DS. Hyrule as we remember it from "A Link to the Past" is back almost exactly as we remember it. But does the new game have the same level of fun that the old game did?
It has been a long time since I played a Pokémon game. We are talking the Red version of the game and maybe the Yellow version. Since I last played they have added 498 Pokémon to the game. And that is not counting the ones added in this new game. With this I have decided to get back into it. I will have no clue what I am doing at first, but lets look at what I can expect.
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate is a re-release of the Wii version Monster Hunter Tri that introduced gamers to the world of monster hunting back in 2010. Does this remake for the 3DS and Wii U warrant the purchase price or is it simply a "been there, done that" type of game? Read on to find out.
On February 4th, 2013 the latest in the Fire Emblem series comes in the United States. Fire Emblem Awakening will continue the turn based series by following Lord Chrom and how he gathers an army of companions to save the world from a rising evil. Man does that sound like an over used plot device. But lets admit, it is not the destination we play games for, it is the journey. In this tradition choices you make have an effect on the game play. Say there is a character that you have become really attached to and then they die in battle? Well they are dead for the rest of the game, so be careful.
Click for a bigger view of this awesome 3DS.OK, to be honest I have never played an Fire Emblem game. And turn based games are not my forey. So why would I care about this? Well the release is part of a 3DS bundle. And this bundle, like a number of other bundles it has a special design on it. This blue 3DS has a freaking dragon on it. I don't even play my current 3DS and I want this bundle. Look forward to it at an MSRP of $199.99 in a few weeks.
