I'd only want a Metroid movie if we could get the guys behind Mad Max: Fury Road to do it. They'd be able to make something compelling without having dialog drive the plot like the games do. Alternatively a Metroid cartoon done by the Samurai Jack guys.
Sonic 3 and Knuckles could have got me to buy this on sale since 1 and 2 are on everything but those two still aren't on an 8th gen console. Out of these, my favorites are Sonic 1 and 2, Gunstar Heroes, Phantasy Star 4, Streets of Rage series, Ristar, and Vectorman. Also wish we could have got that McDonalds game Treasure made for the Genesis. I always love when a game is way better than it has any right to be.
An Adventure Time game structured like Dark Souls. Think about it.
I think the fact that kids and teenagers can read a book for class and still fail a test or book report says everything for whether they gate you out of the experience.
I think you hit the nail on the head as to why so many of these games don't quite match up to the classics: Those games were designed for speedrunning. Kind of an old school philosophy, where everyone had a few games to play so they needed to make them last and Super Metroid wasn't too long, so having Samus take off her suit by beating it in X amount of time was the way to keep gamers replaying it. Meaning the game needed super tight, replayable level design and twenty-four years later people are still coming back to it.
Well I meant loot made too little of a difference on Kratos. Because I had the same issue with enemies and perks felt pointless. Upgrades that don't feel substantial are an immediate turn off for me.
I think the reason it reminds you of RE4 is because it took so much from The Last of Us which took a ton from RE4.
I want to give Hollow Knight a shot eventually, just working on my backlog for now. God of War didn't do much for me. Loved the story and new take on Kratos, but combat was not fun at all to me. Camera was too close and upgrades/loot felt like they made too little an impact on harder settings while the game was just dull on easy. Didn't have fun with it.
This Genesis collection looked pretty boring to me. Already have all these games in some form and that it isn't even as complete as last gen's (no Sonic 3 and Knuckles or Ecco) makes it even less appealing. I need a Genesis collection with third party games. I'll be all over one that has Castlevania Bloodlines, Mega Man The Wily Wars, Contra Hard Corps, Aladdin, Rocket Knight Adventures, Truxton, or MUSHA.
