- This RPG, which features perhaps gaming’s most well known character, had a remake released last year, two decades after the original came out.

16
- This sequel went in a more action packed direction than its predecessor, possibly foreshadowing the direction the similar, more popular franchise from the same developer would also take.
- By killing enemies, you earn extinction points, which can be used to buy new weapons, ammo, and health supplies.

15
- This title made a cutesy character even more cuddly.
- This followed on from another character from the same company also being turned into a soft material.

14
- For the first time in 3D, you’re able to use a power up that dates back to the first game in the series.
- This power up allows you to throw fireballs.

13

08
- That’s an awful lot of water

07

18: Resident Evil 4

17: Thousand Year Door

13: Breath of the Wild
