Arcadey sports games are mostly found in the indie space where it's tough to find them. All of the big name simulation sports games are usually the same experience repackaged each year, with a focus on microtransactions. What happened to all of the sports games that were just...fun?

As time goes on, more and more we have to ask ourselves...what is the point of a faithful game remake? When a game can either be ported or entirely transformed with modern touches a la Resident Evil 2, a faithful remake sits in a weird position where it hardly seems to make anyone happy.

For many millennia, the GameCube hasn't had anyone question what its best game is. As the years rolled by, all of its games went to get better versions on other platforms. Today, our leading team of scientists uncovered these games and used due process to deduce which is the best one...a process so intensive that we've only scratched the surface today.

It sounds obvious to say that some games aren't fun without a player, but some are designed to be a sandbox that almost require a player to bring their own imagination, creativity, personality, or some other form of personal input to make them fun.

Typically, we'd urge that gameplay is king in a video game. However, things aren't always so black and white. Sometimes the gameplay is just OK, but we can't help but push through just to see where on earth the game is going. Heck, sometimes it's good, but wears out its welcome over the course of the game. We wanted to talk about said games, and even some cases of putting up with a story just to get back to the gameplay. MORE PLACES TO FIND US Crubscribe ► https://bit.ly/Crubcast Get the show ea...
