In an act of ultimate fan service, Link gets his own limited web comic.
Link has been in the spotlight quite a bit this year. His franchise, one of the most popular of all time, is celebrating 25 years.

We can now add web comic to that list.

You may be asking yourself, "Why did Capcom decide to remaster Resident Evil Code: Veronica X in HD?" Truth is, I'm asking myself the same question after playing it. The game is fully rendered in 3D, unlike Resident Evil 1, 2, and 3, which feature static backgrounds. This has made an HD port possible, but it hardly makes it necessary. Because the graphics have received minimal improvement and the gameplay has received none, the HD port serves little purpose other than bringing Code: Veronica to two new platforms.
What happened to "Nintendo Hard?"
I broke two controllers while playing Mega Man II as a kid. Specifically, I broke two NES controllers playing Heat Man’s level in Mega Man II. Even more specifically, I broke two NES controllers while doing the “Hell Blocks” portion of Heat Man’s level in Mega Man II.

It also didn’t hurt to have a couple of extra controllers lying around the house, you know, just in case.
