14 Video Games You Won't Believe Are Turning 14 In 2014

6. Final Fantasy IX (November 13, 2000) The ninth instalment of the JRPG genre's premier franchise, Final Fantasy IX is memorable for its departure from the more realistic style of the preceding games. The game mechanics had also been simplified somewhat to reduce the steep learning curve, allowing new comers to more readily get to grips with the series' complex combat system. While this resulted in the inevitable negative response you would expect from the series' die-hard fans, it was a commercially beneficial move as the game sold many hundreds of thousands of units. 5. The Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask (October 26, 2000) Often regarded as possibly the darkest instalment in one of the gaming community's most beloved series, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is now in its 14th year of life, so don't expect its hitting puberty to lighten it up. Though Ocarina of Time is more fondly remembered for being the first 3D-styled game in the franchise, there is a cult group of Zelda fans who favour the steeper challenge and more intense story offered up by Majora's Mask.
