The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past	Nintendo	1991	[30]* [66]Japanese version [32] [64]Also reviewed in Nintendo Player #7 without score. [46] [37]European version [29]Japanese version [29]* [27]**A Link to the Past (LTP throughout) was a ground-breaking game for the Zelda series. Besides being the first Zelda for the SNES, it was the first to have a semi fleshed-out plot. By semi fleshed-out, I mean something more than collect crystals and kill Ganon. Instead, it had a retrieve 3 pendants, collect the 'Master Sword,' kill Agahnim, _then_ collect crystals and [spoiler]kill Ganon (revealed to be Agahnim's alter-ego).[/spoiler] Despite my sarcasm, I actually enjoyed (and continue to enjoy) this game having beaten it at least 15 times and I still keep coming back for more. The wonderfully engaging plot (mentioned above) actually takes place before* the first 2 Zeldas, and so is technically a prequel. The game-play departs from the Zelda 2 RPG style, and returns to it's roots as a top-view adventure game with RPG elements. Unlike the first Zelda, communication plays a fairly important role in this installment. There are friendly, non-cavedwelling NPC's that you can, indeed are required, to get information from. Some play an important role, some are there just to annoy the living shnike out of you. Fighting is still basicly the same as in the original, as is the heart and money system. However, the overworld/dungeon system has changed drastically with the addition of an in-game map that actually shows important locations. i.e. Where you are, where you need to go, and enough detail to make getting there possible.***The Zelda Link to the Past [[link:http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/170/ Master Quest]] hack has brand new dungeons, overworlds, music, etc. [cjlee001]	SNES
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening	Nintendo (Nintendo EAD)	1993	A Game Boy fantasy adventure like no other! Nintendo's fantasy adventure hero, Link of Hyrule, returns in this new epic quest...Link's Awakening. Link's newest challenge is set on the mysterious Koholint Island, a place where dreams and reality collide. As a castaway, Link must find a way to escape from the island and return to his beloved homeland of Hyrule. But it won't be as easy as chartering a boat. The island's inhabitants have no knowledge of the outside world. One creature, a talking Owl, may know the solution to Link's dilemma, but first Link must tackle eight dungeons full of treacherous monsters and tricky traps. His goal: find the eight Instruments of the Sirens and awaken the omnipotent Wind Fish which rules the island. Link will battle new enemies and make new friends in one of the most in-depth fantasy adventure for Game Boy yet! A battery-packed memory will save up to three games so you never have to start your journey empty-handed.*[b]Version variations[/b]: in the Japanese and most other versions the anthropomorphic hippo model in Animal Village appears to have breasts which she covers up with a towel. In the North American version the sprite was redrawn without breasts or towel. In the North American version the item that the mermaid has lost was also changed from bikini top to necklace. There are other minor differences, too, see source for details.[b]Easter eggs[/b]: when entering [i]ZELDA[/i] as the protagonist's name (ぜるだ in the Japanese Version), a version of Zelda's theme starts playing. Another tune is also available in some versions of the game. It is accessed by entering the name とたけけ in the Japanese version, [i]LOLO[/i] in the French version and [i]MOYSE[/i] (the last name of the translator) in the German version. It is not possible to hear this song in the US version.*Link's Awakening was the first game in the Legend of Zelda series that had a trade sequence, * a fishing mini-game, * individual music for each dungeon. It was also the first game that took place outside of Hyrule.* [32]* [29]* [27]This is the first Zelda game to feature humans. Though their presence in the Zelda universe was implied in the Manual for Link to the Past. [Zerothis]**"The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening" resembles the feel and control of Zelda III for the SNES. Playing as Link, you must collect all 8 instruments to wake the Wind Fish. There are a variety of items and weapons, and yes, the dungeons are still as challenging as ever! [Dynamiton]	GB
Postal²	Whiptail Interactive;Resi Network (Running With Scissors)	2003	A funny thing about Steam achievements is that some of them are anachronic with the original release date of the game: for example, there is an achievement that relates to [url=http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/nope-chuck-testa]Chuck Testa Taxidermy Meme (2011)[/url]*Este juego trata de como un tipo corriente en un día normal puede armar un cristo en su pequeña ciudad residencial por cosas tan cotidianas como esperar en una cola o ir a devolver un libro. Tiene un fuerte humor negro y muchísimo sarcasmo en cuanto a la violencia en videojuegos y las manifestaciones. Lo mejor de todo es que en realidad puedes cumplir los objetivos sin dar ni un sólo tiro, pero la tentación es simplemente demasiado grande. 8 de 10Live a week in the life of "The Postal Dude"; a hapless everyman just trying to check off some chores. Buying milk, returning an overdue library book, getting Gary Coleman's autograph, what could possibly go wrong? Blast, chop and piss your way through a freakshow of American caricatures in this darkly humorous first-person adventure. Meet Krotchy: the toy mascot gone bad, visit your Uncle Dave at his besieged religious cult compound and battle sewer-dwelling Taliban when you least expect them! Endure the sphincter-clenching challenge of cannibal rednecks, corrupt cops and berserker elephants. Accompanied by Champ, the Dude's semi-loyal pitbull, battle your way through open environments populated with amazingly unpredictable AI.

Alliance of Valiant Arms	NHN USA;Neowiz;Tencent (Redduck)	2007	Básicamente un FPS con un complejo existencial entre un estilo Battlefield y un Counter-Strike, y que no logra hacer ninguno de los 2 bien. Si además le sumas que a base de dinero algunos jugadores aguantan todo lo que les venga, y un sistema de comprar por días todos los objetos, te queda un Pay To Win abominable. Su única virtud es que al jugarlo ganas un cuchillo para el Spy del TF2. Bueno, y el patocuchillo. 3 de 10.*AVA is a free-to-play MMOFPS that plunges you into the middle of a world at war.

El argumento del Skyrim en comparativa es de segunda. 10 de 10Welcome to Vegas. New Vegas. It’s the kind of town where you dig your own grave prior to being shot in the head and left for dead...and that’s before things really get ugly. It’s a town of dreamers and desperados being torn apart by warring factions vying for complete control of this desert oasis. It’s a place where the right kind of person with the right kind of weaponry can really make a name for themselves, and make more than an enemy or two along the way. As you battle your way across the heat-blasted Mojave Wasteland, the colossal Hoover Dam, and the neon drenched Vegas Strip, you’ll be introduced to a colorful cast of characters, power-hungry factions, special weapons, mutated creatures and much more. Choose sides in the upcoming war or declare "winner takes all" and crown yourself the King of New Vegas in this follow-up to the 2008 videogame of the year, Fallout 3. Enjoy your stay. Key Features Feel the Heat in New Vegas! Not even nuclear fallout could slow the hustle of Sin City. Explore the vast expanses of the desert wastelands – from the small towns dotting the Mojave Wasteland to the bright lights of the New Vegas strip. See the Great Southwest as could only be imagined in Fallout. * Feuding Factions, Colorful Characters and a Host of Hostiles! A war is brewing between rival factions with consequences that will change the lives of all the inhabitants of New Vegas. The choices you make will bring you into contact with countless characters, creatures, allies, and foes, and determine the final explosive outcome of this epic power struggle. * New Systems!

Special melee combat moves have been added to bring new meaning to the phrase "up close and personal". Use V.A.T.S. to pause time in combat, target specific enemy body parts and queue up attacks, or get right to the action using the finely-tuned real-time combat mechanics. * An Arsenal of Shiny New Guns! With double the amount of weapons found in Fallout 3, you’ll have more than enough new and exciting ways to deal with the threats of the wasteland and the locals.

Minecraft - Pocket Edition	Mojang	2011	This is separately developed version of Minecraft with notable differences from the PC (Win/Mac/Linux) version.	Android
Dead Island	Techland;Deep Silver (Techland)	2011	An open sandbox zombie survival game with crafting (talking about fresh ideas) that brings both brute gory fun and great atmosphere. Pros: -Simple crafting-upgrade system. -Stamina-reliant combat and movement. -IA (specially for beings that hunt down brains) -Drowning zombies. -Leveling up with RPG-like characters and trees (Borderlands anyone?) Cons: -No animals. -No use of extra weapons for repairing or carftfing. -No swimming. -Right seat wheel car. 6 of 10*Note that Dead Island does not strictly match Zombie Apocalypse genre as the zombie outbreak is limited to the island of Banoi with an excessive military quarantine making sure nothing goes in or out of there, thus the outbreak is sufficiently contained. However, none of the events in the game take place outside the containment area, giving it the overall appearance of zombie apocalypse without actually being it.Terror. Violence. Madness. Bedlam. A holiday paradise gone mad. A tropical island turns into total chaos after a mysterious zombie outbreak. Cut off from the rest of the world, the player’s only chance to survive is to fight to the death and find a way to escape from the island. Dead Island combines first-person action with a heavy focus on melee combat, character development and customization of a vast array of weapons. All of these gameplay features are presented in a dark story inspired by classic zombie movies with a gritty and engrossing campaign that can be played with up to four players in co-op mode. Set in an open world tropical island, hordes of different festering zombies await players around every corner while they embark on a variety of thrilling missions through the holiday resort. With firearms and ammunition being scarce the player must rely on utilizing found items as weapons for self-defense and fight off zombie hordes in intense melee combat. A diverse range of items can be collected and will later serve to transform the player’s ordinary makeshift weapons into serious instruments of destruction. In addition to satisfying even the most bloodthirsty action fan’s fantasy, Dead Island also features role-playing elements which allow the player to develop one of the game’s unique character classes according to their preferences, all the while learning new skills and fresh tactics during their journey through the perilous environments of the island. What’s more, anytime during a game up to four players can seamlessly join together and experience the intense combat and immersive story with cooperative gameplay. With the all-new Chrome Engine 5 powering Dead Island, the game will use the latest installment of Techland’s acclaimed proprietary game engine, allowing the player to experience the tropical island paradise in graphical splendor with diverse environments like lush forests and detailed city environments. Key Features First-person melee combat * 4-player coop * Weapon customization * Set on an gorgeous open world tropical island * RPG elements for character development * Hordes of gruesome zombies	Windows

Minecraft	Mojang	2011	Minecraft is a game about breaking and placing blocks. At first, people built structures to protect against nocturnal monsters, but as the game grew players worked together to create wonderful, imaginative things. It can also be about adventuring with friends or watching the sun rise over a blocky ocean. It’s pretty. Brave players battle terrible things in The Nether, which is more scary than pretty. You can also visit a land of mushrooms if it sounds more like your cup of tea.*[media=youtube]MmB9b5njVbA[/media]Following concepts were removed with some versions: healing items (1.8 - re-added with 1.9) * uncolored lighting (1.8)	Windows
