How apt that in the week that Eurogamer itself celebrates its 20th birthday, a remaster should appear for one of 1999's finest console releases. With Final Fantasy 8 Remastered, the hope is to get the definitive edition for PS4, Xbox One, PC and Switch.

I think almost everyone in there was intimately familiar with 2001.

Overwatch is coming to Switch! We'd like to yell at you again, just to ensure you definitely heard the first time. And also the second.

OK, so I know Eurogamer's actual birthday was two days ago, but as is our style, the Eurogamer video team is once again Late to the (birthday) Party.

As Eurogamer turns 20, we thought, you know what? It's not all about us. It's also about the developers, the people behind the virtual magic that inspired the creation of Eurogamer two decades ago. Without the developers, we wouldn't be here. And so, we thought we'd ask a few of them (20, in fact!) to pick the games that defined the last 20 years, and see what would come of it.

Back in 2003, I was about seven and busy running around the playground flinging mini lightsabers salvaged from cereal boxes at my friends. Chances are I also played Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy at a friend's house when it was released that year - and thanks to some upcoming re-releases, we'll soon be able to play it again on Switch and PlayStation 4. Oh, and also its predecessor Star Wars: Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast, but I was probably a bit young for that.
