Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 1st)
Pik us a winner
Well, we're halfway though 2023. That's quite a thought, huh? The first six months of the year may be behind us, but Nintendo is showing no sign of slowing down. This week, we asked you to rank every N64 3D platformer in celebration of Banjo-Kazooie's 25th birthday, while we went head-to-head with Horace the Horse in our Everybody...

Feature The Biggest 3DS Games of 2015 - Q4 Edition
Gaming on the go to finish the year
Every few months of each year we do lists of what we consider to be ten of the biggest games on each system that are still on the way.

Feature A Tale of Adventure and Totemic Chaos in The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes
Three brave heroes seek triumph
This is the tale of identical triplets living in a quiet, uninteresting corner of Hyrule, each with an earnest desire to escape and see the world. Their section of Hyrule isn't on the lavish maps produced in honour of their hero Link, but is off the edge and out of view. Not even smashing pots is much fun in their...

First Impressions Linking Up in The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes
Wisdom, Power, Cosplay
While saving Hyrule has traditionally been a one hero job, multiplayer adventures have become a fan-favourite subset of the Legend of Zelda series since Four Swords made its début in 2002, and we were ecstatic to see The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes - an all-new co-op title for three players - revealed in Nintendo's...
