GamesFiend's Zeth walks the path od puzzle based adventure one last time with everyone's favourite British gent in this review of Professor Layton and The Azran Legacy on 3ds.
gamrReview's Xavier Girffiths: "Puzzle games come in many different forms but what they share in common is an ability to captivate gamers by challenging their brains. In 2014 the best puzzle games had us step out of Mario’s shadow to play as Captain Toad, experience an unlikely mash-up between our favorite video game detective and lawyer, free children stuck in a park, and embark on a globe-trotting adventure to investigate a living mummy.
After solving hundreds of puzzles our minds feel that little bit sharper and our thumbs slightly more agile and reflexive. Here are the games we have to thank for that."
Great nominees, deserving winner. Shame such great games of the genre are getting overlooked by all the chav fodder saturating the market.
As good as these games are, did you completely skip The Talos Principle? Easily the best puzzle game in years.
OXCGN:
"Every gamer has a game that swallows up time, keeps them fixated and amazed and is destined to be a personal nostagia trip for years to come. It may be the incredible world that you are immersed in, the gameplay that keeps you amused, or even the multiplayer action you experience.
This generation of consoles have provided a wealth of different games but not all of them have been big long-term attention grabbers.
OXCGN’s staff looks at the games this gen that they have spent the longest time playing, and would love to hear about yours in the comment section below."
I love my RPGs: it's no surprise that there are RPGs in that list! I agree with Oblivion and ME.
omg i played that for what...100 hours already. and ive had it for 3 weeks only
RPGs make up probably 80% of my gaming in general.
Mass Effect 1 & 2
Oblivion
Fallout 3
Dragon Age (80 hours just to finish one time through)
The Witcher: Enhanced
I need to get back into Demon's Souls.
(t seems Mass Effect 2 has won many ppl's mostr played games, but then again, not everyone is the same.
I myself enjoy racing games or certain styles of FPS, but it does seem that RPG's grab a great deal of attention from a huge % of gamers.
I have never loved an IP as much as I love Mass Effect. Lets hope the franchise does not end at a Trilogy and some spain off is made.
Commander Shephard is KING next to Master Chief.
Oblivion for me! I guess there weren't many other games to distract at the time, but it was a world that made 'next gen' seem to mean something. Of course now it is an old 'this gen' game, but a classic!
I agree. I spent lots of hours on Oblivion. Can't wait for the next Elder Scrolls!
Bring it on...but I hope it doesn't have a world like Shivering Isles...too 'otherworldly'. I liked the towns etc. of Oblivion with the occasional visit through the Oblivion gates.
forme is oblivion. i spent almost 4 month playing that game no lie haha.
but when i buy a new ps3 it would be mag.
I believe in you because I spent even more time than you!...God the game is almost infinite!
I have played through every God of War game at least 5 times, and played both uncharted games 4 or 5 times.
But I gotta say I played KZ2 the most; tons of time spent on multiplayer, and the single player 3 times.
Final Fantasy 7 um who didn't put in a ton of time on this one.
3DS deals and sales on eShop, Walmart, Amazon, Newegg, Best Buy, Toys "R" Us, Groupon and Cowboom.
3DS XL Mario & Luigi Bundle + DS Game for $169.99
Why do the best deals always happen when I am broke? That deal is insane O_o
I really really enjoyed devil survivor. I never finished, but want to. I might pick it back up tonight.
