Bloodborne
But Bloodborne is more than just gameplay systems and stats. There’s a real sense of accomplishment and player growth that I haven’t even felt in the other Souls games. I started Bloodborne scared and unsure, quaking in my boots every time a new enemy showed its ugly face. I was...
So what’s the verdict on this incredibly anticipated new Final Fantasy? It’s not a perfect game, and it has its fair share of flaws. But having completed the original twice and nearly completed this new one (which has a secret unlockable video!), I can say it’s safely one of my...
Amusing while thought provoking, The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 combines a curious mix of regular fantasy fare and topical black humor that often had me reflecting on current affairs and humanity.

While this title originally released in 2008 has certainly withstood the test of time, it’s not Game of the Year. Valkyria Chronicles was a worthwhile trip that I wholeheartedly enjoyed, and I regret exactly zero minutes of my time spent with it. I will likely remember some of the characters...
