Bioshock 2 is the best Bioshock game.

Wow, I disagree with you So Hard, FF8 was an awful time for me. But that's the whole point of this hill-to-die-on thread, so you win. Good job picking what I consider the most controversial opinion here.

Regarding the Remakes/Remasters, I think it depends on how the developers do it. Dead Space, Shadow of the Colossus, Demon's Souls and (IMO) Final Fantasy 7 are excellent. As much as I love The Last of Us, the Part 1 remake wasn't worth the full price. There's probably more examples that I can't think of right now but that's just my two cents.

Breath of the Wild is a legit 3/10 that did next to nothing well, it wasn't innovative at all, had no influence on the genre and was a poor game from both a Zelda standpoint and an open world standpoint.

It was only reviewed well due to not having a mainline Zelda game for so long and the fun experience of it being a launch title on a revolutionary portable home console.

Ubisoft would have been ripped to shreds for making BOTW

I had just graduated high school when it came out. It was garbage then too. Games like that are why games like Symphony of the Night were so popular at the time: 2D was still waaaaaay better.

But it's literally the one that set the foundation for all the ones you named. Without 64, none of the others would exist.

Yeah it doesn't hold up great now, 27 years after it's release. But at the time it was revolutionary and set the standard for 3D platforming.

The price of new release videogames hadn't increased for two decades. I remember when they jumped to $60 from $50. To be honest the $70 price tag, while obviously kinda sucks, shouldn't be surprising at this point, especially considering how inflation has hit basically everything else.

Definitely the best story.

Resident Evil 2 is a Metroidvania.

Super Mario 64 is crunchy, borderline-unplayable, polygonal garbage. Don't believe me? Go play Sunshine, Galaxy 1 and 2, 3D World, and Odyssey... then go play that. It was a prototype they went ahead and sold.

opinions like this one never seem to go away.

I didn't even think this was a hot take. BotW is a good and fun game but it's a bad Zelda game. If that makes sense

I personally feel like the way weapon degradation makes you swap between weapons and creates mini “quests” on the fly never got old. I hate it in 99% of games, but in BotW it worked perfectly for me.

I'd honestly rather just have my trusty sword. The breaking thing didn't bother me or stop me from playing but as soon as I got the master sword I never switched from it

The last of us part 2 has a terrible story that undermines the first game, despite its incredible gameplay

PC is better in every way

Lol, imagine spending $500+ on a console when you could've used that to buy a mid-tier rig that plays just as well or better!

The pompous superior characters, like Revali and H.B., are some of the best characters ever.

Also, Revali is the best champion. I will fight you on this

Just because you don't like a game, doesnt mean the game is objectively bad. In contrast, if you enjoy a game you can still be critical of its flaws/shortcomings/disappointing bits.

BotW is a terrible Zelda game

That every open world game should be half the size it is. Give me quality over quantity.

There should be no end game content. All content should be integrated as part of the main game.

Dota is better than LOL

Wasn't there also the concept of keeping the prices for the console lower, but rather I crease the price for the games?
