A remake of The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening isn't the Zelda game I wanted next, despite having massive love and nostalgia for the original. I thought it was too small, too short, too outdated to fare well against other games on the Nintendo Switch, even with a gorgeous new...
Daymare 1998 attempts to stroll through the old corridors of the 90s horror game without bringing any new idea, examining any tropes or improving any aspect of the game. While the graphics are better than the games Daymare tries to emulate, they don’t match up against the Resident Evil 2...
When it comes to utterly insane and often non-sensical plots to video games, Kotaro Uchikoshi’s usually on the tip of my tongue. His unique style of storytelling, filled with foreshadowing the most obscure of plot twists, makes him one of my absolute favorite directors of the visual novel medium. From...
NBA 2K20
The NBA 2K series has continued to dominate when it comes to buzzer-to-buzzer action, but recent entries haven’t quite lived up to their full potential off the court. Sure, loyal round ball fans have continued to plunk their cash down in record numbers, but not without a fair amount of...
Gears 5
There were moments of quiet and contemplation in Gears 5 that made evaluate how very different this game is to what I expected. Peacefully driving a skiff along an icy plane, surrounded by mountains and glaciers, leaving a thick imprint in the snow behind me. Gears is no longer a...

Paris-based studio Spiders (acquired a couple of months ago by French publisher Bigben Interactive) is an interesting example of perfecting expertise through hard, steady work. Ever since their foundation in 2008, they have focused solely on the development of roleplaying games.
Capcom’s signature monster hunting series of similar name made its first running leap from Nintendo handhelds onto the more powerful consoles (and PC) last year with a surprisingly well-paced new entry. Monster Hunter World felt familiar enough to veterans while changing up the core formula just enough to entice new...
Blair Witch
The Blair Witch Project movie changed the world of horror movies forever, bringing about new ways to make psychological horror movies even more frightening. While its sequels didn't have the impact of the original movie, the Blair Witch Project has influenced the way horror stories are told, and its influence...
Astral Chain
Platinum Games has produced, over the course of the years, some of the best action titles ever released. Starting from the original Bayonetta, the Japanese studio has always managed to produce some solid, fast-paced action titles where shoot (and slash) first, ask questions later was the norm.
Remedy always had a flair for the otherworldly, the supernatural, if you think about their portfolio of games. Even in Max Payne, their breakout title, they pioneered the slow-motion 'bullet time' effect in games modeled after the one seen in The Matrix movies. This allowed the titular character to effectively...
Oninaki
Tokyo RPG Factory still has something to prove. The studio was founded back in 2014 with the goal of recapturing Square Enix’ mid-90s magic, and, thus far, they haven’t really achieved that task. I Am Setsuna had its charms, but ultimately didn’t leave much of an impression, and Lost Sphear...
Fire Emblem has come a long way in the last 15 years. The series' humble beginnings on the Famicom and beyond are mostly lost among fans of the franchise outside of Japan, but I've been following it, like many fans, since the first few localized games on the Gamecube and...
