Difficulty in Games for Younger Gamers

"I recently reviewed two games: Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I Don’t Know! and Ben 10 Omniverse 2. These games have a few things in common: They’re both based on cartoons, and they share a publisher. The one thing these games do not share is a difficulty level; completing everything Adventure Time had to offer was difficult, and it took a couple of weeks to complete all of the game’s content, while Ben 10 took fewer than ten hours over two days to complete and required minimal effort."

There's no problem with this, just play Nintendo games they have it all worked out. Follow that guide line.

The 7 Best Video Game Remakes of All Time

Remaking video games is not a new trend, but it is more popular than ever. Which are the best video game remakes of all time?

shinoff218374d ago

It's a crime star ocean 2 remake isn't on this list. Jeez

kevco3373d ago

There's so many remakes coming out these days, I'm sure many people's favourites won't have made the cut!

jznrpg72d ago

I agree with you. It’s was so good I finished it way faster than I wanted to.

ApocalypseShadow72d ago

Where's the 2D love? Like Strider and Bionic Commando Rearmed? Some of my personal Remake favorites.

LightofDarkness72d ago

Those games were excellent, especially loved that Strider reboot back just after the PS4 released.

Links awakening was fun, but it STILL runs very poorly. Slowdown all over the place.

DefenderOfDoom272d ago (Edited 72d ago )

For a 90s video game remake I would put QUAKE 2 at the top. Nightdive did a amazing job . And Machine Games added awesome new content.

Soy72d ago

Dead Space over Mario All-Stars, esp since All-Stars was just a graphical upgrade. Otherwise.....can't quibble much with that list.

Ben 10 Omniverse 2 - One Good Game Doesn't Deserve Another

Ben 10 Omniverse 2 followed the commendable original title with a lacklustre cash-in. Such a shame for the kids.

Star Fox, a Thirty Year Reunion

WTMG's Leo Faria: "I respect the hell out of Star Fox for what it was setting out to do in 1993. You gotta love how feisty Nintendo was being, proving the naysayers wrong with their whole “bit wars” schtick. That doesn’t mean I have to like this game… as a game. It’s just not very good. It was a proof of concept, a big fat tech demo. If anything, we ended up getting Star Fox 64, one of the best games of all time (don’t at me) four years later, so that alone is enough to validate the original Star Fox‘s existence. It also marked the beginning of arguably Nintendo’s most neglected and disrespected franchise alongside F-Zero. One I sure hope won’t die with that disgraceful Wii U title as its swan song, its last hoorah. Happy anniversary, you weird, ugly, barely polygonal monstrosity. At the end of the day, we still love you."

I would love it if Nintendo finally did a Chorus type Star Fox game at this point. I think with their characters and their "Nintendo Appeal" - whatever that is - they could bring back Star Fox as a main franchise.

The Chorus game design, or even a Crimson Skies style to a lesser extent, would make for a great template to get Star Fox up and running again and get the franchise out of the rut it's suffering from.

Sure, they can go back to the SNES/N64 era gameplay but...really? Meh. Maybe they can use that corridor gameplay style for a smaller game, released between the big releases, or as Boss Levels at the end of each free roaming chapter for that added "Cinematic Flair".

Star Fox certainly deserves better.

Godmars290395d ago

Don't you mean a No Man Sky, only not really. Bit more scripted with an open world after game just in the Lylat system.

SimpleSlave395d ago

No. The game Chorus is the perfect way to bring Star Fox out of the old ways and into the new while still retaining the charm of the series. No need to bloat the game design with a No Man Sky type of open world. That would be counterproductive and just too much of a departure for the series. We'll have another Dinosaur Planet/Star Fox Adventure in our hands and tank the series once again. No thanks.
.
Go watch a walkthrough of Chorus. That's a design Nintendo could excel at with this franchise while keeping the charm and concept close to the series origins but also moving it forward enough that it can flourish in a bigger scale. It's perfect.

"It’s just not very good."

You wash that filthy mouth!

--It really was something you had to be there for and experience during the early 90's, I understand haha
