In the world of Red Dead Redemption, regret hangs heavy over the heads of our protagonists. Roads not taken, choices made poorly, lives never lived. John Marston's sins are so great, he can't accept that he'll ever find salvation.

CONKER’s BAD FUR DAY was one of the last Nintendo 64 games to be released, but its legacy was cemented via its clever and raunchy humor! A cartoon cavalcade of irreverent comedy!
Who else had this controversial game on the N64?

METAL GEAR SOLID 2 gets rightly praised for accurately predicting the future. But let’s not forget that the rest of the MGS franchise has some poignant writing between all the wacky sci-fi action. Is it possible for connection to emerge from destruction? Otacon’s question feels painfully timeless.
