As Black Friday draws to a close, it's hard to dispute that it has been a good haul for gamers. This year has seen a good selection of top-rated games from earlier in the year, such as Resident Evil 4, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, Street Fighter 6, and Metroid Prime Remastered, all with similar discounts. Although there is no physical copy of Baldur's Gate 3, the deals for a PlayStation 5 for £360 make up for it.
The Thursday letters page of the gaming magazine has sparked an interesting discussion. It suggests widening the net for Knights Of The Old Republic developers, as a reader enjoys Daytona USA 2. It's likely that the remake of Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic won't be seen for another four or five years, if ever. The suggestion is to commission a new game from someone that knows how to make action role-playing games. It is also suggested that Lucasfilm should look beyond the American market and consider Capcom or Koei Tecmo.
The idea of a Zelda Cinematic Universe is also gaining traction. An Ocarina Of Time remake that looks roughly like the animation is the obvious way to continue the old formula, but why not explore the Zelda timelines and have them combine into one? That way, each of the games can be remade and have connections to make them part of an ongoing story.
Finally, in response to the question of the next best Mario Kart after 8, the suggestion is Mario Kart: Super Circuit. It is praised for its spot-on course design, size of characters and karts in relation to the courses, and playability. However, the king of all kart racers is said to be Street Racer, though there is no remaster or re-release of this yet.
It's been a busy Black Friday, and it's time to take a break from new releases. With everything purchased this year, it's time to take a little break and enjoy the games!
It's been a good haul for Black Friday this year. There's been lots of discounts for games, consoles, and accessories. I managed to stock up on some top-rated games from earlier in the year such as Resident Evil 4, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, Street Fighter 6, and Metroid Prime Remastered. Unfortunately, there was no physical version of Baldur’s Gate 3 which would have been a great deal. I'm unsure which of these games is the best deal, but since Resident Evil 4 is the only one I’ve played so far, and it’s great, I’ll give it the title.
The Thursday letters page suggests widening the net for Knights Of The Old Republic developers, as a reader enjoys Daytona USA 2. The remake of Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic will take a few years to make and it's proving to be a difficult task. My suggestion is for Lucasfilm to find someone else who knows how to make action role-playing games, such as the Lies Of P team. They have the talent to make something great, without copying From, and should be given the chance. Lucasfilm should look outside of America for developers too, so why not ask Capcom or Koei Tecmo?
A reader asked about the best Mario Kart after 8. My favourite and contender for best in the series is Mario Kart: Super Circuit. They got the course design, size of characters and karts in relation to the courses, and playability spot on with this one. I'd also like to see an Ocarina Of Time remake and Final Fantasy 7 Remake approach, where the stories are changed and connected into one. The 2D games could be made 3D, like Link's Awakening was, which would be the best approach.
Finally, I picked up some indie games, such as Teardown and The Invincible. On the Switch, I got Zelda: Link’s Awakening and The Case Of The Golden Idol with the DLC packs. I've also platinumed Alan Wake 2, which was enjoyable despite the combat. With all these games, I think I'm done looking for new releases for a while!
