Abstract: You wake up, it's dark and you're lying in a pool. You don't remember how you got here. You stand up, stretch your aching limbs, walk towards the exit and out into the brilliant sunshine. As your eyes adjust to the light, the world comes slowly into focus...
Abstract: If you are a company like Nintendo, who is still developing video-games for longer than a substantial portion of its fan base have been alive for, ensuring that its cherished franchises do not feel repetitive must be a priority. Such is the case with The...

It's an old cliché that each console generation starts with a game that sells the hardware on its own. It's also pretty much a lie. Neither the PS4 nor Xbox One launched with must-have games – they followed down the line.The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the...
