--The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was perfect when it released 28 years ago, and it's even more perfect 28 years later, though who it's perfect *for* has changed considerably in that time.

Bold, stark, innovative and uncompromising, 'Silent Hill: Townfall' is full of brilliant elements that feel authentic to the franchise without ever being constrained by it, but a terminally limited core gameplay loop will be the fulcrum on which your enjoyment hinges.

Phantom Blade Zero centers expression and spectacle over progression-halting difficulty checks. At 40-ish hours and with over 50 bosses to fight and 30 unique weapons to collect, there's a stunning amount of videogame here, and almost all of it is truly excellent.
