The vibe, the music, the gritty sarcasm. It's discount ocean's eleven without taking itself too seriously. I've found it in the glory days of HOTU which of it's own is a nostalgia wormhole. There is something inherently 'cool' about the game, I can not describe it except for calling it a vibe. It's a small crook to medium size heist simulator with colorful characters you meet a long the way. Talking about you Gludo.

My goodness, this is one of the most interesting, most well-made games in this unique genre. Some of it plays like a Point&Click, but most importantly, the planning, staking out and managing of heists is just SUCH a wonderfully creative mechanic - this game has to be preserved! I believe it was mostly popular in Germany, but I hope others get to play it too!

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight PrincessThe Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess was initially developed with the Nintendo GameCube in mind, but ended up receiving a Wii port when it was released to promote the new console. This version has motion control compatibility for the sword and pointer controls for the menus, the bow and the boomerang. This version of the game has a completely inverted map and locations when comparing with the GameCube release. The change in layout was meant to adapt Link's usually left-handed design to right-handed people, given the motion controls.
