Zelda ; chronique d'une saga légendaire

Cet ouvrage est la réédition augmentée de l'ouvrage des mêmes auteurs paru il y a quelques années, déjà chez Third Editions. Cette nouvelle édition inclut le 3e volet de la saga de jeux vidéo Bioshock : Bioshock Infinite.Description de l'ouvrage telle qu'elle figure sur le site de l'éditeur :"En seulement trois épisodes, la saga des BioShock a su se faire une place de choix dans le cœur des joueurs. Jeux aux contextes si particuliers et à l’atmosphère exceptionnelle, les deux premiers volets prennent place dans la cité sous-marine de Rapture. Baignant dans l’ambiance des années cinquante et teintée d’Art déco, la progression du joueur repose sur un système de jeu ouvert et intelligent, qui incite à faire preuve de créativité et à utiliser à bon escient les ressources offertes par l’environnement. Troisième volet, BioShock Infinite nous invite, lui, à découvrir la ville aérienne de Columbia dans un 1912 uchronique et steampunk à souhait."

Dive into this unique publication, presented as an ancient tome, which will allow adventure fans to finally (re)discover the amazing Legend of Zelda. Immerse yourself in this unique collection, presented in the form of an old grimoire, which will delight all adventure lovers to finally discover the fabulous legend of Zelda!EXTRACTIn the kingdom of Hyrule, a legend has been passed down since the beginning of time: A mysterious artifact known as the Triforce, symbolized by three golden triangles arranged to form a fourth triangle, is said to possess mystical powers. It is hardly surprising that this object has been coveted by many power-hungry men over the centuries. One day, the evil Ganon, the Prince of Darkness whose ambition is to subjugate the entire world to his will, sends his armies to attack the peaceful kingdom. He manages to capture one of the fragments of the Triforce, the triangle of power. Daughter of the king of Hyrule, Princess Zelda is terrified at the prospect of seeing Ganon's armies swarming over the world. She, too, seizes a fragment of the Triforce, the triangle of wisdom, and chooses to break it into eight pieces, which she then scatters across the world, hiding them to prevent Ganon from ever acquiring them. She then orders her faithful nursemaid Impa to go forth and seek a warrior brave enough to challenge Ganon. As Impa roams the kingdom of Hyrule in the hope of finding a savior, Ganon learns of Zelda's plans and has her locked up before sending his men to track down the nursemaid. Surrounded by these ruthless creatures, Impa is saved by a young boy named Link at the very moment when it appears that all is lost. As unbelievable as it may seem, Link has been chosen by the golden triangle of courage, and thus holds a part of the Triforce himself. Convinced that she has finally found the one who will save the kingdom, Impa hurries to tell him her story. Link accepts his mission to rescue Zelda without hesitation. Before confronting Ganon, however, he will have to gather the eight fragments of the triangle of wisdom, which are his only hope of gaining entry to the dungeon deep beneath Death Mountain where the Prince of Darkness hides. His quest has only just begun.

Final Fantasy VII

Certaines séries, fondatrices, ont laissé leur empreinte sur l'histoire du jeu vidéo. Si la saga Devil May Cry n'est pas la plus connue de Capcom, elle n'en reste pas moins pour les joueurs, de par ses nombreuses qualités, le monument qui a donné ses lettres de noblesse au genre beat'em all 3D. Direction artistique atypique, action frénétique et surtout gameplay innovant et exemplaire : en 2001 les aventures de Dante ont bouleversé la génération PlayStation 2. Destiné à faire école, le titre influencera nombre de jeux d'action ultérieurs, au point de devenir la norme, le mètre étalon à l'aune duquel les concurrents auront dû se mesurer. Les Editions Pix'n Love et Capcom se sont associés afin de proposer un ouvrage inédit, où l'ensemble de la série se trouve décortiqué avec passion. Sur plus de 170 pages, revivez le scénario complet des cinq jeux, explorez les mécaniques de chaque volet, découvrez les coulisses de la création de la saga ainsi que les secrets de sa fabrication, à travers des entretiens exclusifs réalisés auprès des concepteurs.
