Nice article, I enjoyed!!

Magicite3573d ago

Why do they have to mention death?

Drive-By-Stabba3573d ago (Edited 3573d ago )

Cause you can't experince a game when you're dead... so its best to do it while alive.

fonger083573d ago

I agree with most of these but if I had a list it would be:
1. The opening and ending of Ocarina of Time
2. Popping in a Tetris cartidge into an old school gameboy
3. The opening of Uncharted 2
4. Beating Mega Man 2 in a single play through
5. Watching the world change in FFIII
6. Using different plasmid combos to take down a big daddy
7. ToLU play through
8. Getting a Steam account
9. Mario 64 play through
10. Getting 4 or more friends, online, to play a COD/Halo match through the night

About TLoU, I agree completely.

Do not read if you haven't played and you don't want end ruined.

When Joel has to make that decision at the end of the game in the hospital about ellie's life/death for the good of humanity, then you break out in actual gameplay carrying her with guards chasing. And then the scene at the end when he wont tell her what happened. Holy crap. Moment of gen for me.

Oh, did anyone else kill one of the doctors on accident when sneaking in and then realize they are harmless?

fonger083573d ago

Lol yeah I killed the doctors too. I had a feeling that was what the game was leading up to... in terms of the ending, I glad they allowed the gamers to choose though. If they had just said Elle was going to die/or live, it definitely would have been as emotionally impactful (at least to me).

DeusEx-Machina3573d ago

Dang, sorry I hit disagree by accident.

TLOU had a good and fitting ending.

I butchered the doctors without hesitation nor remorse. Guess I turned a little insane together with Joel while playing the game.

Still wish they had deviated more from the Uncharted formula and had designed the gameplay less linear and predictable.

Sm00thNinja3573d ago

That wasn't even the best moment in that game!! SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER!!!!! The point where you took over Ellie and thought Joel may have kicked the bucket was the brightest point in tht game IMO!!!

EcoSos33573d ago

Good list but I have done most of it exept for 4, 5 and 7 will have to try those soon

3-4-53573d ago

Solid List Nifonge..

Good thing I'm not that far into FF7 yet, but I'm pretty sure I've already been spoiled as to what happens to a likeable character.

I'm avoiding the rest of this article incase of others as well.

* Random side comment: Would be cool if more PS3 games like uncharted collection would make it's way to PS4 or something so those of us who never had a PS3 but want a PS4, don't have to buy both.

styferion3573d ago

nice list but I'd add RDR, that moment when you first arrive in Mexico, riding your horse in the night while the song playing.

Great article!

The Aeris death scene was probably the first time a game made me cry. Everything before FF7 had been Mario and duck hunter. It hadn't even crossed my mind that a character would die in a video game.

Sh*t got real from that point on.

Nerdmaster3573d ago

To the people that played previous FF games before playing VII, Aeris death wasn't really mind-blowing. I was more shocked with Galuf's death in V because I used him during battles (not that I had any choice), and Aeris was almost useless.

Etseix3573d ago

Aeris death pleases me in a way i cannot describe /flameshield on

Spurg3573d ago

Dark souls...discovering ash lake for the first time...shitting bricks in the process.

Lou Ferrigno3573d ago

I can't exactly remember when or how.. But I remember tearing up during my play through of Grandia II for the Dreamcast..that story was epic and extreamly emotional for me at that time..
AMAZING game ..just thought i'd throw that in there.

Fallout Anthology Edition Looks Pretty S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

The Fallout Anthology Edition is coming to PC very soon, and is packaged with some very S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bonuses.

-Foxtrot6d ago

It’s an awful downgrade to the last one they did

They included physical disc back then

ocelot075d ago

Forgot I ordered this until I got the dispatch email.

Looking Ahead: The Lingering Questions About the Next Mario Kart

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."

I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.

gold_drake6d ago

there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.

nintendo needs their bangers early on
