SFL Chronicle: Ah, video game plot twists! They can turn an otherwise great story into a brilliant story (think of the original inFamous here for a moment). Most of the time, however, plot twists in video games are just plain bad. Sometimes so bad that they lead to a lot of hilarity. So let’s talk about the elephant in the room; this top five is about the worst plot twists in video games…
Alanah Pearce, who was a writer at Sony Santa Monica for several years and worked on God of War Ragnarök, has shed more light on the sex minigames which cropped up in the series' earlier entries.
Other than looking like that, why does anyone care about what she has to say about anything?
Final Fantasy VII 1997 exceeds 15.5 million units sold worldwide as of February 2026, reinforcing its legacy as the series best selling title.
I’d love to know how many units have been sold of all the Final Fantasy VII franchise games, including the original, the remakes, spin offs such as Crisis Core, and mobile games Ever Crisis. I bet a fair few copies.
Modern day publisher be like: "Failed to meet sales expectations. Pivoting to live service."
It's an absolute legend of a game. And I honestly really love how the remake trilogy is shaping up so far.
Final Fantasy 7 is one of the most iconic video games of all time, with it helping to changed the RPG landscape when it was released in 1997.
If you already own it... There, I saved you the click on a deliberately misleading article.
I bought the game yesterday on steam for $4 because Square Enix is trying to replace it with a version that has no mod support.
Prior to yesterday, I had no idea the game had so many great mods until people started making a fuss out of it.
u get the switch 1 version of the og ff7 for free if you own 7 remake for the switch 2.
lol.
What the fuck did I just read?
Weird shit in there, BUT I will agree with the ME2 thing, they never touched on shepard coming back to life, if he had this crazy bouts or some shit that would have made the game much cooler, and it would have helped the dark atmosphere they tried to implement.
I don't like the thought process behind the choices. To take FFVII as an example, the choice seems to be explained by that the twist has been done before (what hasn't?), but because people actually care for this choice. Also, Aerith has as both as much personality as 32-bit and two CDs will allow. For what it's worth it was a sympatethic character, that had had a huge build up relationship with several of the other characters, that was suddenly removed from story and gameplay without pre-warning. Don't know if that's been done before.
If a list, which is pretty much the cheapest way to write an article to begin with, is going to be good enough for N4G it should have some overall point to it and be well written. Some objectivity and research wouldn't hurt either.
EDIT: The sin-gularity pun is funny though :)
did i just read an article in which the author stated that Dragon Age II was one of the best games this generation? Better than Mass Effect 2? I mean sure the endless pandering to Mass Effect 2 does get on my nerves it was a great game, but it is hard to deny that it was better than DAII. Please, if this is the world my children are going to inherit kill me now so they will never be born
Edit. Oh it was a joke post
God of war doesn't succeed in action department?
