For those who are among the younger generation of gamers, or anyone who hasn't played the original, Ocarina of Time follows the adventures of young Link. He awakens one morning to find himself hand-picked by the great Deku tree, the benevolent protector of the forest in which the Kokiri people live. His task? To venture out into the big world, meet a princess and save everyone from the impending doom being spearheaded by pointy-nosed Ganon. All a rather low pressure situation for Link. He handles it with a demeanor befitting of a hero, all the time rocking the green hat.

Some of the best games to come to a platform appear during a system’s twilight and this is definitely true of Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective. I may have skipped a few of 2010’s better releases, but for me, this was the most entertaining and engaging experience since Red Dead Redemption.
