7 games and series with fantastic worlds

Games truly bring fantastical worlds alive by letting us literally run, jump, and shoot our way through them.

Completely agree. The entire reason I'm interested in the Bioshock series is because of it's world and aesthetic, because normally I don't like shooters.

THR1LLHOUSE4544d ago

Lots of good picks in there. Bioshock of course, but those Mario and Luigi games do seem to take place in some kind of alternate Mario universe where everything is somehow *more* weird.

NagaSotuva4544d ago

The worlds in the NES Little Nemo game were dreamy.

going way back I like the Panzer Dragoon series. I know alot of people missed out on the series, especially the RPG masterpiece Panzer Dragoon Saga, but it has some of the best atmosphere and epic music score in the history of gaming.

I think zelda:wind waker should be on this list

Pikmin 4 is great. The new camera system made everything better.

I like the concept of this game but it really gets boring in the long run. Nintendos flagship could be F-Zero, they really need to bring it back

I’d prefer a StarFox spin off like the GameCube Adventure games. I found them to be fun despite being different to the main core games.

@-Foxtrot

I'd love a new Star Fox game done in a similar format to Starlink, but with a better story and better enemy variety.

Nebaku63d ago

Every subsequent F-Zero sold worse than the prior.

If it's a flagship title, I think the flag will sink with the ship.

I love Pkimin 4, but wish they'd lean more into the rts aspects of the game. Would be interesting if you were using pikmin to gather resources and building stuff. Wouldn't mind if it strayed a iittle bit away from the cozy game territory. Atleast in spin-off.

MrBaskerville63d ago

Everyone hated the rts sections or what?

ifinitygamer64d ago

The "next gen console update" part of this is so clickbaity. The Nintendo president offered an update that they have nothing to update us on.

Crows9064d ago (Edited 64d ago )

I'm all in for a new Nintendo generation if they can give us

New smash
New Mario party
New Metroid
New Zelda both in 3d and 2d
New starfox
New IP
New and better pokemon game that really advances the IP

ifinitygamer63d ago

So you want all new Nintendo games from every franchise lol
Not making fun but it's like every major franchise, minus Mario for some reason?

talocaca63d ago

I live in Japan and Pikmin 4 did surprisingly well. Tons of collaborations and marketing. Even now they play ads on the trains.

One of my favorite franchises ♥️

The movie was absolutely garbage !!!
BH needs to do better - since Halloween Ends - Exorcist , Freddy is Shyte - STOP IT !!!!

Garethvk169d ago

Didn't the creator write it? It also made a fortune based on the budget so from a business standpoint it is a massive success.
