Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization Review

Mark Fajardo — Wed, 23 Nov 2016 04:08:49 +0000

For many, the dream is for video games to hit a point where virtual reality can match reality. This is a scary concept for some and something explored in a number of anime/manga series. Among the most recent is Sword Art Online, a series that makes a seamless transition from series to game. With the […]

World of Final Fantasy Review

Mark Fajardo — Tue, 25 Oct 2016 04:00:37 +0000

Over the years since the first Final Fantasy game was released on the Nintendo platform, fans of the series have seen how the franchise has evolved. Starting as being a JRPG we all loved, the series has received all sorts of spin-off. We’ve seen the series take the fighting-game approach with Dissidia, a Monster Hunter-esque […]

Odin Sphere Leifthrasir Review

Grant Gaines — Wed, 01 Jun 2016 16:47:31 +0000

The past has many great or at least well known games, but many of them have aged quite poorly. Seemingly okay systems were later seen as terrible, frustrating, poorly designed and other negative things. These choices have resulted in many newcomers overlooking classics because they’ve aged so poorly. This certainly holds true for Odin Sphere, […]

Atelier Escha & Logy: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky Plus Review

Grant Gaines — Wed, 27 Jan 2016 17:15:41 +0000

Following in the footsteps of the PSP, the Vita has been the go to place for remakes/updated ports of popular JRPGs. These range from titles like Disgaea to more niche series such as Neptunia. Among the more surprising choices is the Atelier franchise. With Atelier Escha & Logy: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky Plus being the […]

One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 Review

Grant Gaines — Wed, 02 Sep 2015 14:41:56 +0000

Over the years, Omega Force has found a lot of success applying the Dynasty Warriors formula to other series and franchises. This worked fairly well for Mobile Suit Gundam and Hokuto no Ken, but not so much for One Piece. The first Pirate Warriors was too barebones and the sequel added a lot, but it […]

Resident Evil Revelations 2 (PS Vita) Review

Mark Fajardo — Wed, 19 Aug 2015 11:34:25 +0000

With the lack of support and games the PS Vita has received in the past year, Resident Evil Revelations 2 is one game that will finally be released for the forgotten handheld. Porting the full episodic game that Capcom released several months ago on consoles, many have high hopes for the PS Vita version. Now […]

Operation Abyss: New Tokyo Legacy Review

Wed, 10 Jun 2015 23:10:13 +0000

At long last, the Generation Xth series of RPG’s has begun its transition out of Japan and into a more global audience. Operation Abyss: New Tokyo Legacy represents not just one, but rather the first two titles in the series thus far rolled together into one complete package for the Vita. Nearly seven years since […]

htoL#NiQ: The Firefly Diary Review

Fri, 27 Feb 2015 05:30:36 +0000

If you had told me about htoL#NiQ: The Firefly Diary a year ago, I would have been completely onboard. NIS America-published platformer with a cute handdrawn motif to match? I’m in. Now, after getting my hands dirty with quite a few levels, I’ve started to see why this game received a CERO D (17+) rating […]

Criminal Girls: Invite Only Review

Mon, 02 Feb 2015 23:01:09 +0000

NIS America’s latest RPG for the Vita, Criminal Girls: Invite Only, is no stranger to controversy. A frequent topic of discussion about the game was whether or not a game focused on reforming school-age girls through various forms of punishment could actually make it out of Japan. As a remake of a 2010 PSP exclusive, […]

Atelier Ayesha Plus: The Alchemist of Dusk (PS Vita) Review

Thu, 29 Jan 2015 08:25:07 +0000

With the Arland trilogy officially wrapped up, it was only logical for Koei Tecmo to start releasing the updated Dusk trilogy for PlayStation Vita. The first title, Atelier Ayesha Plus: The Alchemist of Dusk, revisits the classic PS3 rpg from back in June 2012. Can Atelier Ayesha Plus charm a second time around, or is […]
