Whether they are successful at the box office or not, films around video games always make for some great entertainment. Simon West’s Lara Croft Tomb Raider, John Moore’s Max Payne, and Mike Newell’s Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time are good examples of this phenomenon. Now another celebrated video game is getting a live-action adaptation, and it is Nintendo’s very own The Legend of Zelda. The game developer is pairing up with Sony for the project, and they have just released the first look. The first look showcases the beloved characters of Princess Zelda and swordsman Link, sitting out in a green pasture, armed for the challenge that lies ahead. Both are clad in battle-ready clothes, Hylian ears, and a penetrating gaze. Benjamin Evan Ainsworth as Link (Left) and Bo Bragason as Zelda (Right).

Infinity Nikki review: a fashion-forward Zelda without violence

Infinity Nikki review: a fashion-forward Zelda without violence

Published by Webster

You know that flavor of internet conversation where one familiar item is identified as another, wholly different item in a way that shouldn’t make sense but weirdly does? Like how a hot dog could be classified as a sandwich, or because it has a filling enclosed by dough, a Pop-Tart is ravioli. Despite Infinity Nikki’s looks of a high-quality dress-up gacha game, it is actually Breath of the Wild reborn in some fancy-ass clothes. In the game, you play as Nikki, an ordinary girl who gets whisked away to the fantasy world of Miraland along with her talking, bipedal, pantsless cat Momo. In Miraland, fashion is magic and a guild of stylists use it to combat the world’s evils and one another. I had issues with its clunky, unintuitive, and at times unresponsive control scheme. Infinity Nikki having so much in common with Breath of the Wild was not immediately obvious. I started out disliking the game immensely. I had issues with its clunky, unintuitive, and at times unresponsive control scheme. The menu icon is …

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has dropped to for the first time

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has dropped to $30 for the first time

Published by Webster

Significant discounts on first-party Nintendo Switch games can be notoriously difficult to come by, particularly on landmark titles like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. However, that trend seems to be shifting with Black Friday, as last year’s Game of the Year contender has dropped to just $30 ($40 off) at Walmart for a limited time, beating its previous low by $10. Nintendo’s action-adventure RPG presents a familiar premise: you’re ultimately chasing after the malevolent Ganon in hopes of saving Princess Zelda and protecting the kingdom of Hyrule. But wait, didn’t we do that in the last game and many before it? How could she possibly fall into that predicament yet again? I’ll leave you to uncover the details, but let’s just say there’s enough timeline shifting to make Doctor Strange blush. You’ll have tons to do around the realm in pursuit of her safety, too. There are plenty of puzzling shrines to complete, weapons to collect, and open regions to explore, including floating islands and harrowing subsurface caverns. It’s a familiar trek …

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is just $40 for first-time Woot buyers

Published by Webster

If you’ve been waiting to pick up one of the all-time great games for the Nintendo Switch, you can do so now for as cheap as it gets. Woot is offering first-time customers the chance to buy a physical version The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom for $39.99 ($30 off) when you use code ZELDAWELCOME at checkout. If you’ve purchased from Woot before you can still buy the game for a solid $49.99 ($20 off) — or just make a new Woot account, we’re not the cops. Last year’s mega-hit from Nintendo followed in Breath of the Wild’s footsteps as a direct sequel, but it rewrote the formula of its open-world take on Hyrule with new crafting, physics, and exploration mechanics. It’s the kind of game that opens up all kinds of avenues for your creativity to shine — or you can just really mess with stuff in the world and cheese your way through puzzles in fun ways.

Astro Bot, EA Sports FC 25, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and More: The Biggest Games of September

Published by Webster

We’re into the second week of September and we’ve seen some major game releases this month already. And there’s many more still to come. Sony launched its first-party title Astro Bot on September 6. The platformer is a follow-up to Astro’s Playroom, the free-to-play title that comes pre-installed on every PS5 and serves as a handy tech demo for DualSense controller features. Astro Bot, however, takes it to the next level, expanding the scope to include over six galaxies and 80 levels. September is a big month for fans of sports games, too. 2K launched NBA 2K25, the latest entry in the long-running and popular basketball sim franchise, on September 6. The game features several refinements and gameplay improvements over its predecessor. EA, meanwhile, is gearing up to release EA Sports FC 25 later this month. This will be the second game in the franchise without the Fifa moniker and will build upon the foundations of last year’s FC 24. There are a couple of remaster projects for cult hit games, a new Legend of …
