I totally adore SH1, it’s my favorite game in the series even after all these years, and I’ve played it a good 30+ times. However, I can with clear consciousness say that it, and its first two sequels, are so damn well designed, built and written games, that liking them is not only up to “nostalgia”. I’ve witnessed (/…

...what, no SH1, aka THE best game in the series, and the game that has the most important part in the whole story? Especially SH3 does not make much sense + spoils lots of things if you don’t play #1 first. I’d even say SH2 feels kinda boring without SH1.
SH1-3 are the must have. SH4 was the last Team-Silent game, and while kinda different, still great and atmospheric in many ways. Ignore EVERYTHING released later on.
SH Downpoor is THE worst SH game up to date. One extreme case of buyer’s remorse right there. It does just about every single element wrong.
This horrible misunderstanding, or rather choosen ignorance, is what’s wrong with so many wannabe “SH-fans” nowadays.
You know... I’m pretty sure this game’s made with the ancient “FPS Creator” program. Those straight 90 degree angles, minimalistic lighting, the “Press Enter to open”, that goddamn sitting skeleton... it really all seems familiar. Didn’t expect someone to try and sell something made with THAT thing a whole decade…
...and the endless addition of BRIDGES AND FERNS.
inb4 & after 10,000s of people who don't know what "Yandere" is, calling people playing this psychos.
The overall interface at the start was pretty much the same as seen in the Accel World anime, where everyone's linked to AR online systems 24/7
...And that's why I keep my PS3 offline. :)
Never played any of the WORMS games?
Worked just fine for me. Got the PAL version in the Zelda Collection.
As someone who witnessed a total first-timer play and beat the original MM for the very first time just months ago (without much issues), I can say that the game SOUNDS more complex than it actually is. Just about all the stuff told in this article I would expect ANYONE to figure out sooner or later, not to mention…
It's kinda weird if you haven't, since the original Manga series if from late 1980s, this "egyptian arc" was adapted into OVA series in 90s, there's several fighting games made out of the series for arcades and PS1, and they started a brand new TV-series in 2012 that's been going through all the arcs in chronological…
Well I learned of the resolution drop simply by plugging my old N64 to my current HD TV one day, and played both OoT & MM on it. These modern TV screens really aren't gentle for 5th gen console game graphics, so every oversized pixel really shined.
it ran at lower resolution. It's very clearly visible if you compare OoT and MM side by side.
You really should NOT start with Clear Sky. Not only it is a "sequel" (story-wise a prequel, but whatev), it's also considered by most to be the worst game in the series. Definitely the buggiest.
launch up the original N64 version if you can. I bet you'll be horrified to notice how low-res it is. It literally is running at lower resolution than Ocarina of Time, and we're already talking sub-240i here.
If you weren't playing games in the 90s, you might not remember tank controls, a movement scheme best left to history
Actually both OoT and MM are locked to 20fps, which translated to ~17fps in the PAL region because of the 50hz transition. On top of that MM had some minor slowdowns at times.
