War never changes. When Skyrim featured in the Switch reveal trailer back in 2016, it was a statement of intent for the system. This was a big title in every sense of the word, and for the first time, Nintendo-only console owners could step into a Bethesda RPG and take it on the go, too….
Metal Gear Solid 5 famously released in two highly disproportionate parts, with its short (but highly replayable) prologue Ground Zeroes releasing roughly a year before the full-fat Phantom Pain. This has always struck me as an odd decision. Prior to Ground Zeroes’ release, Hideo Kojima claimed he split off the prologue because he wanted to…
