In any case, if you want to introduce Final Fantasy to someone younger with a recent game, because they think all 2D games look bad, I think going with the Kingdom Hearts series is a better choice. Or, you could give up entirely on Final Fantasy, seeing how the latest...
Dark Souls Remastered on the Nintendo Switch is a tribute to the Souls series and everything it stands for. Playing the game on the go allows you to really revel in the moment to moment successes amid seemingly hundreds of failures. While I love everything this port stands for, I'd...
Ultimately, Earth Defense Force 5 boils down to a very shallow entry in a series that I've typically enjoyed in the past. Single-player only works in short spurts, as this is a title that's meant to be enjoyed with others. I think it's time for Earth Defense Force to evolve...
I really do like Battle Princess Madelyn, and while I like the way the story mode feels, I'm more partial to the Arcade mode. This is simply because the story mode can be rather unforgiving and rage-inducing, but at the same time, it's also sweet and innocent. Battle Princess Madelyn...
There aren't a ton of games that can make a two-decade jump and remain unscathed, but Spyro Reignited Trilogy does just that. While it won't do anything to challenge the status quo of gaming, no one says it has to. This is a game made for you to unwind with and is...
While Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight is weak on content, the game does a great job at celebrating the absolutely stellar soundtrack of the third entry in the iconic JRPG series. It's an easy recommendation for hardcore Persona fans and a great reason to dust off that PS Vita one...

We may all be different, speak different languages, have different educations, but we all have Tetris. Seven small blocks called tetrominoes that make lines. It’s so pure in execution, people sometimes call it Tetris when they stack their groceries perfectly in their trunk. Tetris is a great equalizer. I think...
First impressions can often leave you feeling like it’s a slow, groggy mess with too much to manage and too many tough survivors working against you. But once you get deep enough into the game, only then does it start to feel more enjoyable, which sadly isn’t how it should...
I had the feeling while playing through The World Ends With You: Final Remix that with some more time, Square Enix might have made a combat system that utilized those darn buttons that the Switch has while still fitting everything on a single screen, which is wider and clearer than...
I'm ultimately sad to see that I have grown out of a franchise I once loved, with underlying problems that I may have not noticed as a child building on top of one another to make LEGO DC Super-Villains much less enjoyable than I thought it would be. I may...
While there may be plenty of things I'd like to change in Gal Metal, the core of the game is an unmistakably fun time. With so many heavy hitters on the market in 2018, sometimes you need to just sit down, unwind, and out-play alien invaders with electrified versions of...
