LAG - "Silent protagonists are video game heroes who never speak. Whether or not they make noises, perform actions, or are completely void of any expression, they are all silent protagonists, so long as they do not speak words. Despite being unable to speak, some of them have plenty of personality, while others succeed in forming a connection between the player and the character/game. This list names the top 10 silent protagonists, whether they found their way to the top 10 through charm or effectiveness is irrelevant."
Nintendo's classic action-adventure game, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, is set to receive a fanmade port for the Sega Dreamcast.
Gary Green said: Being a writer exclusively for PlayStation is immensely rewarding, yet it does have its drawbacks. It was easy enough to distance myself from the ever decreasing number of Xbox exclusives, yet parting ways with Nintendo was hard, and it only got harder over time. Sooner or later, I knew I'd be back, and as I frantically search for the most efficient and cost-effective ways to play the Nintendo classics which I've missed out on over the years, revisiting the best of the best comes first.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time came out during a time where every console had its charms. Whether you were team Sega, Nintendo, or Sony, everyone knew the game's potential, and the players who invested in Nintendo's chunky N64 console were not disappointed. Like Sega's ill-fated Saturn, it may have been a console which lacked in quantity of games, but the quality was certainly there.
Ocarina of Time was a game that was hard to put down. We would bounce home excitedly from high school, ready to wander the lands of Hyrule once again to find another secret or two, before preparing ourselves to tackle that next intimidating dungeon. It's time to retell this story. Ready your ocarina.
Yes, this is one of the true masterpieces that I believe every core gamer should play.
It even holds up to this day.

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.
Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.
The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.
Isaac Clarke was an awesome protagonist
And then he had to talk....
Freeman, Freeman, Freeman!
R1, Nathan Hale
Jak and Daxter, Jak.
LBP, Sack boy/girl
to the point where I'll deliberately avoid buying a game that has one. There's just no reason for them to exist in this day and age.
