Review: Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age

To put this plainly, Dragon Quest XI is the BEST RPG I’ve ever played. Period. It’s not just the best Dragon Quest game or the best game I’ve played in 2018. It’s the best RPG that I’ve ever played. I say this with the utmost confidence that Dragon Quest XI is better than Chrono Trigger,

Review: The Missing

Revelations Some of my favorite games and stories are the ones that subvert my initial expectations. The ones I go into expecting one thing, only for the game to pull back the curtain and reveal its true self. I’m not just talking about games including plot twists (although I do enjoy a good twist every

Review: The Midnight Sanctuary

Open the Floodgates How often do you look at games that release in Japan, hoping and praying that they’ll eventually make their way west? Games that look intriguing or exciting, but, for one reason or another, nobody decides to localize it, so you’ll never get to play it?

Review: Forza Horizon 4

Motorhead Almost everyone has one or two hobbies that they are passionate about and/or obsess over. Music, film, sports, whisky, anime, and so on, there seem to be just about as many fanbases for things as there are, well, things in existence.

Review: Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner – M∀RS [PC]

Space! Action! Story! So if you know me at all on this site, this review is going to be a bit different from usual. I admit I went into this one mostly blind – Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner – M∀RS (PC version played for this review, also on PS4) is a port

Review: Yakuza Kiwami 2

Dueling Dragons Kazuma Kiryu has seen quite a bit of exposure over the last couple of years. Recently, we’ve seen the end of his story with the release of Yakuza 6: The Song of Life. It’s honestly safe to say that this franchise has been experiencing a bit of a resurgence thanks to these solid

Review: Senran Kagura Reflexions

[Note: Due to the fanservice-heavy nature of this game, some of the screenshots in this article may be considered NSFW.] Shake It Up The little rumble motors in our controllers are things that we have come to take for granted over the past few console generations. What was once a pretty interesting gimmick offering a

Review: Freedom Planet [Switch]

Break Out of the Mold When it comes to entertainment media, creators are often asked what influenced them in their creations (a question which I’m guilty of asking often during interviews…). Did another person’s works help guide their thoughts, or maybe a specific movie or game struck an idea in their head.

Review: 20XX

Tongue, Meet Cheek 20XX is a sarcasm-filled rogue-like parody of Mega Man that strokes all of your favorite memories of the series’ gameplay in fast chunks. There’s no real overall story to 20XX, but it’s got just enough going on to give you a reason to kill experimental robots over and over again. The game

Review: 2064: Read Only Memories Integral

Robo-Sapience You have to admit, there is a certain type of charm to point-and-click adventure games. While I personally didn’t dive headfirst into these games when Sierra ruled the roost in its heyday, I’ve enjoyed the fruits of of the modern resurgence of the genre that’s been led by Telltale as of late. Specifically The Wolf

Hardware Review: PowerA Enhanced Wired Controller for XBox One

Stay For the Third Party Third-party controllers have gotten such a stereotypically bad rap that it’s pretty much a meme nowadays. With official controllers for consoles often being quite expensive, though, it was pretty common for someone to own just one or two standard controllers, leaving their siblings, friends, or enemies with horrifying, yet affordable

Review: Sleep Tight

The Perfect Playroom There are many things that can affect one’s opinion of a piece of media, but I think one that often goes unnoticed is the environment one is in when consuming said media. An easy example I can roll out is concerning movies. After all, how many times have you or someone you

Review: ZiQ

ZiQ Be Nimble A runner game on PC? Typically this type of game is encountered on mobile platforms, but here’s one for the casual PC crowd. ZiQ ($9.99, Steam PC/Mac available now, Switch coming soon), by Midnight Sea Studios and published by 3D Realms, is a pretty standard entry into its genre: You run down

Review: Mothergunship

Pick Up the Pieces The sense of satisfaction that one can get from creating something can be a drug like no other. Spending time putting random pieces of stuff together into a functional and useful item, being able to point at it and say “I made that,” can give you a wonderful feeling of accomplishment.

Review: State of Decay 2

Back in May, Undead Labs released their follow up to the cult hit State of Decay, bringing with it a new multiplayer component that lets friends tackle the zombie apocalypse alongside their friends. Schedules were a little hectic at the time, but now that things have settled down, I’ve jumped back into State of Decay
