Ashamed of playing a 10 year old game? Hell no. In the last two months I went and beat the 3 original Spyro the Dragon games, three games from my childhood that I'd never beaten, the first of which will be 20 this year.

Sure, playing games years after release you notice that the games are rougher than they originally seemed, but if you still find it to be an enjoyable experience, why care?

Hell yeah I'll be playing it. I loved the ones on Wii U and 3DS but they suffered from systems poor online offerings, and me not having anyone local to play with hurt them for me too. Will be great to finally play a version with good online, let's just hope it get a good community behind it.

Any good games that are like Zelda 1 and to a lesser extent Zelda 2? I played Ocarina and Majora's Mask but exploration was boring in those games. Went to link to the past, too directed and bored me to death. I've never had the experience of kids growing up without strategy guides where they can find something and say they found it with any game except Zelda. If it's any help I also really enjoyed windwaker, triforce heros, and link between worlds. Looking for something like xenoblade without all the plot and rpg BS. Also I have final fantasy explorers but never ended up playing it, is that like what Im looking for? Thanks

Honestly, I'd say Breath of the Wild. It's the closest 3D Zelda to the original game, so if you have, or can grab yourself a Switch, give it a go.

So, it's come to the time where I typically renew my AVG subscription. I've never had any issues with it, but still I got curious as to what other people here are using to keep there PC's safe from Virus and other issues, and to see if anyone recommends a better one than AVG.

I've already beaten one this month, been Spyro: Year of the Dragon. Currently working on Persona 5, and hoping to get that done by the time Monster Hunter World comes out.

I think it was Super Mario Land. It was certainly my first GameBoy game, and I never owned a home Nintendo console until the GameCube. I might have played something at a friends house prior to that, but I honestly don't remember if that's the case.

I'm playing though Persona 5 right now. I'm loving the game, but I am constantly wishing I could use my Xbox Elite or Switch Pro controllers. I keep trying to control the characters using the D-Pad, because I hate the analog stick positioning.

I hope not. Nintendo has a track record in recent years of not been able to fully support two systems at once. One of them always suffers at the expense of the other. The Switch was supposed to be their answer to that, instead of having to split their internal developers between handheld and home console titles, instead everything is made for one, and people can choose how to play them.

I'll grant you that it's one of the best, probably my second favorite, but for me nothing tops Zelda in terms of music, specifically Wind Waker.

These two tracks for me still to this day remain my favorite pieces of music.

That said, Aerith's theme from FFVII is third.

Oh, and I also loved FFXV's cover of Stand by Me, by Florance + the Machine.
