hands down i love all the metroid game but having a remastered version on the 3ds from the gameboy dude i tell you what! i loved how they made the gameplay and how smooth the game was made the game 100% more funner than the game boy but i still love the classic regardless cause without that you wouldn't be able to get much metroid lore or know what was happening. hands down must own game for the 3ds and if it ever comes to GoG i would without a shadow of a doubt would buy it again on for pc. the combat system idea and everything else was great! i think this was the first idea they created that actually made combat more intuitive like a counter attack which you could do on the nintendo switch metroid dread game as well. having that extra oomph really makes the game that much more battle fluid better.

Silent Hill 3
Silent Hill 3Silent Hill 3 is the third installment in the Silent Hill series. Like the previous entries, Silent Hill 3 is a survival horror combining action-based combat and puzzle-solving, but is somewhat more combat-oriented than the preceding installments. The main character is able to side-step and block some attacks, but in general shares with the other protagonists of the series their relative ineptitude in combat.

Discworld
DiscworldDiscworld is a game released for PC (subsequently Mac, and Playstation) by Teeny Weeny / Perfect 10 studios in 1995. The game was released both on floppy disk and CD-Rom. The latter featured a commentary team created of many veterans of famous Brit-Coms. This included Monty Python's Eric Idle, Radio 4's (later to be more famous) Rob Brydon, ex- Doctor Who John Pertwee, 70s pop singer Kate Robbins, and Blackadder star Tony Robinson. The game is a riff on the Discworld title 'Guards, Guards', however many elements of the text have been shifted, not least the inclusion of Rincewind as protagonist. The game featured puzzles which were considered far too difficult and obtuse for gamers of the time, but the game itself has had a lasting legacy, now being accepted into such emulators as SCUMMVM.
