The reason I had second thoughts was that it was looking increasingly likely that Death’s Door was going to be another indie game that embraced … Continue reading Death’s Door Review

Please send help. Author's Note: Video version can be found here. As the title blatantly says, I can’t stop playing Ghost of Tsushima on the PS4.

Yakuza 3 Remastered Review
Video version can be found here. Kazuma Kiryu, family man. SEGA has made me a liar. Although I usually don’t appreciate being made the fool, I’m willing to forgive SEGA this time.

The Final Fantasy Revitalization Plan
FFRP for short. Almost one year ago, I wrote about how I thought that the Final Fantasy series had been badly mismanaged over the last ten or so years and how that mismanagement has hurt the brand. In case you haven’t read that post (you should if you haven’t), I will briefly summarize it here. … Continue reading The Final Fantasy Revitalization Plan

Onimusha: Warlords Review
Samurai and demons and princesses, oh my! Whenever a remaster of a classic game releases on modern hardware and is reviewed positively, one has to wonder if nostalgia plays a large part in it.
