If you look up ‘intrepid’ in the dictionary, there’s just a
picture of Link. Well OK, in the Hyrule dictionary... The
little guy sure gets around and this adventure, regarded
by many as the best of the Zelda games, comes to the
Wii U after sorties into the worlds of Gamecube and
waggly Wii. It also comes from right here in Australia,
where it’s been lovingly recreated in HD, boasting
many an improved texture, gameplay tweaks (the GamePad really
comes into its own here), and also amiibo support. For those not up
with the story, basically Link is turned into a wolf and has to restore
light spirits in order to save Hyrule. Yay intrepidness!

Rings are like SO last century! The Octagon is where it’s
at now, and this new UFC outing from sports maestros
EA is the best way to get in on the action this side of
risking serious ouchiness for real. A mass of new game
modes have been shoehorned in, along with an impressive
roster of both chick and bloke fighters that boasts both
current and former stars – plus the odd ringer such as ear-
chomping legend Mike Tyson and, with some work, the
king of martial arts, Bruce Lee. With more stunning characterisation than
ever, tweaked controls and a shiny new physics engine,
UFC 2
is... wait
for it... a knockout! (Try the chicken, we’ll be here all week.)

Ifyou’ve invested in
Hyrule Warriors
on the Wii U, you
may wish to look away now... OK 3DS people, now that
they’ve gone we can give you the brilliant news. The ace
collision of
The Legend of Zelda
and
Dynasty Warriors
where all manner of beloved characters go the biff has
not only been shoehorned onto the portable system,
but it also comes with all the original DLC, two entire
new chapters andthe ability to switch between characters on the fly.
Then there are the new playable characters, including a female riff on
Link, Linkle. She’s really going to confuse those who for some reason
still think that Link is Zelda...

the USA via banknotes. Society collapses and as a member

online third-person RPG shooter, you’ve an open world NYC to
play in, including such landmarks as Madison Square Garden
and Times Square. From firefighters gone bonkers to violent
escaped convicts, lowlife street crims and Wall Street private military contractors,
there’s plenty to be wary of. Then there’s the quarantined multiplayer playground
that is the Dark Zone. Ah, New York, New York – a helluva town!
