The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (2011)

  Skyward Sword is a prequel to the entire Zelda series and while the story isn’t too dissimilar to the storylines of the other games (Zelda is kidnapped, Link must travel around Hyrule searching for items in order to help find her and prevent evil rising) there are still a lot of reasons to buy this game Firstly, […]

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (2006)

  This is the thirteenth game in The Legend of Zelda series, and takes place a few hundred years after the events of Ocarina of Time. This game is quite a bit darker than others in the series (aside from Majora’s Mask) and also is the game which has the most realistic art style of any of the games

The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask (2000)

  This game is a direct sequel to Ocarina of Time, but, as with the majority of Zelda games, no real knowledge of the other instalments is required to be able to enjoy it. The story begins with Link searching through the Lost Woods in order to find an old friend of his. This search goes very badly,

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (1998)

  This game is one which is often listed as the greatest video game ever, which is something I would say is a bit of an over exaggeration, but I do agree that is a game which is certainly worthy of very high praise. In this game, you take on the role of Link, just

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (2003)

  This is a sequel to Ocarina of Time, and while it is really quite different in some respects, it’s very similar in others, giving it a good blend of old and new. In this game you are a new Link and Ocarina of Time happened thousands of years in the past and has become a legend. After

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (1992)

  A Link to the Past is actually the third in the Zelda series (or fourth, if you count the Game & Watch title) but it is the first one to give the series the shape which it would retain to this day. You could almost look at this as a template for later Zelda games. The game starts with

Bayonetta (2010)

  Bayonetta is a game which is really rather a wonderful. It’s full of over the top action sequences, extreme violence, wonderful Japanese music and creepy religious iconography. In a way, it’s a little hard to talk about because it is a very unique experience, but I shall do my best. I will say, simply though,

New Super Mario Bros. U (2012)

  New Super Mario Bros. U is the fourth game in the New Super Mario Bros. series and by this point it’s starting to feel increasingly mistitled. The gameplay and art style is exactly the same as it has been since the first game and, if you’ve played all of them up until this point, you may understandably be starting

New Super Luigi U (2013)

  I’ve complained in the past that the New Super Mario Bros. games are all the same and this game is literally the same as New Super Mario Bros. U but with some level changes here and there. Guess I must really hate this game then, right? Wrong! I actually like it even more than New Super Mario Bros. U as I feel

Mario Kart 8 (2014)

I always loved the Mario Kart series – the previous games had already been pretty amazing. Mario Kart Wii and Mario Kart DS are two games which I’ve had hundreds of hours of enjoyment with and which I continue to love to this day. So it should mean a lot when I say that this one blew them out of the
