The games that shaped a generation: GameCube

Wii Feature | Wii

15. Mario Kart: Double Dash!! Nintendo | Nintendo | 2003 So what if this mascot racer feels a lot like its predecessors? The fast and frantic gameplay is still perfect What made it so great? Double Dash didn't revolutionize the Mario Kart franchise like many hoped it would, but the improvements here go beyond surface deep. The character and vehicle selection is huge, the new weapons are appropriately insane complements to returning classics and the tracks themselves have never been this ...

Final Fantasy week, day 2

Wii Feature | Wii

Yesterday we decided, once and for all, who was the best Final Fantasy hero. Today we're going to have a bit more fun and sift through the oceans of bodies and broken realms to determine the baddest villain in the series' history. We're not necessarily gunning for the final boss though - they have a tendency to come out of left field. No, we're considering which character causes the most trouble throughout the quest, how much damage he inflicted and the scope of his crimes. 5. Kefka (Final ...

The games that shaped a generation: GameCube

Wii Feature | Wii

20. Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes Silicon Knights | Konami | 2004 A slick remake of the revolutionary spy drama that's still considered by many to be the best entry in the Metal Gear saga What made it so great? Take the single greatest game of the PSone generation, inject a fresh graphical update and all the cool new gameplay features from its PS2 sequel, and you've got an instant classic. Developed by Canadian developer Silicon Knights and filled with new cutscenes by Japanese film ...

Final Fantasy week, day 1

Wii Feature | Wii

The central character of any game defines it. It goes double for Final Fantasy. Some characters blend compelling personalities with a tale of personal growth; some simply fade into the background and let a grand adventure take place around them. Obviously, nobody from the second category is going to make this list. No, it's a place only for the most dashing, the most troubled, the most likable of Final Fantasy leads. Away we go. 5. Squall Leonhart (Final Fantasy VIII) No hero in the history ...

The games that shaped a generation: GameCube

Wii Feature | Wii

25. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Nintendo | Nintendo | 2006 The latest and greatest Zelda of them all. Easily the most cinematic and enjoyable adventure on the system, even if it arrived just in time to watch the console die What made it so great? Everything. From its mind-bending puzzles to the intricately-designed dungeons, Link's final GameCube outing ranks as one of the greatest games of all time. Running through Hyrule one more time to save the world never once feels old, yet ...

Gamer's orgy

Wii Feature | Wii

Today we're in an especially giving mood. Why all the love, you may ask? Well, publisher THQ just had one of them Gamer's Days where entirely too much info was divulged about the games you'll want to play in the next few months. Our crack-team of journalists were deployed to the frontlines to bring you, our dear readers, the best coverage possible from this event. How does the recently announced Conan action game look? Do the fiery daredevil feats of Stuntman: Ignition get your blood ...

Ruined endings

Wii Feature | Wii

Weve compiled twenty ending videos from some of the hottest games of all time, partially so that we can trash them, but mainly to ruin the experience of earning them legitimately. If youre the type to play three-quarters of the way through a game before being distracted by something more important (like what?), nows your chance to see what you missed, or didnt miss, by being an underachiever. The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion Lost Planet Prey Halo 2 Kingdom Hearts II Gears of War Resistance: Fall of ...

Accidental victims

Wii Feature | Wii

Are you the kind of inquisitive gamer that likes to try shooting everything with a virtual pulse at least once, just to see what happens? Or maybe you take some guilty pleasure in gunning down gaming's innocent bystanders? Whatever the reason, we all exercise an unnecessarily twitchy trigger finger every now and again, so in recognition of our inner, cold-hearted killer, here's some of the victims of our 'accidental' aggression... Your squad (Ghost Recon 2 ) It wouldn't be so bad if the ...

N64: 10 years on

Wii Feature | Wii

It's hard to believe the Nintendo 64 is actually 10 years old. It hit the US back in September '96, but today is the official decade mark of the N64's UK deployment. Has it really been that long since we stood as teenagers in the then-new Virgin Megastore and watched in awe as some kid maneuvred his way skillessly across a spectacular landscape in PilotWings 64? Apparently so. Of course, as we all know, the console was eventually overrun by the PSone horde, despite N64's superior technology. ...

The Top 7... Games we wish we didn't love

Wii Feature | Wii

Last week, we brought you a list of popular, classic games... that we despise. But that's easy; for every work of genius, there's a hater (with good arguments.) This week, we're doing something much, much weirder. We've compiled a list of games that range from "totally sucky" to "mostly sucky" that we... well, we love them. A tough task? We agree. That's why we've roped in editors from three other top game publications - PC Gamer, Official Xbox Magazine and PSM to help us out. Hey, they're ...
