Fate/Samurai Remnant Review
Fate/Samurai Remnant has a pedigree that I am completely unaware of. Often a blind approach can be the best one when reviewing games in a long-running series. The Fate series has been circulating since 2004 with various forms of media including manga, games, CD dramas, and even a stage play. Scanning through the dozens-long list I recognized a handful of names that had passed through my periphery ...[Read More]
Wild Hearts Review
And we are back! Welcome to the actual review of Wild Hearts from EA Originals and KOEI Tecmo / Omega Force. We have been continuing with this title since our preview on Monday and, folks, I gotta tell you, it’s a helluva game. While Wild Hearts doesn’t check every box that we had hoped, faltering in some minor areas, it’s a huge step forward in the hunting game genre. With gigantic worlds to expl...[Read More]
Wild Hearts Hands-on Preview
When EA and KOEI TECMO announced a partnership to create a hunting game called Wild Hearts, I was a bit skeptical. First, what type of hunting game was this going to be? Didn’t Cabela corner that market with its deer hunting ventures? Why would these companies have any interest in going this route? Second, what could both publishers possibly offer each other in this type of partnership? KOEI TECMO...[Read More]

Persona 5 Strikers
Persona’s contemporary operation as a rigid series of turn-based role-playing games hasn’t prevented it from twisting and contorting its identity into the guise of disparate genres. Arc System Works combined sequels to Persona 3 and Persona 4 into pair of 2D fighting games. Atlus itself leveraged Etrian Odyssey’s labyrinthine dungeon descents into a couple of competent side stori...[Read More]
Dragon Quest Builders 2
I hate Minecraft. I hate it. I hate the fact that it essentially took the idea of LEGOs, sprinkled in a dash of Little Big Planet, and then called itself the best idea since sliced bread. That bothers me to my very core. I get that it has turned creativity ‘on’ within a generation (or two), who has freshly kept the game alive, much like the PC industry has kept alive Skyrim, but as a traditional g...[Read More]

Dragon Quest Heroes II
Adorable Dynasty Warriors has returned! This time the world is a bit bigger, brighter, more detailed and definitely tougher. I had to remind myself what the heck Dragon Quest Heroes II was before reviewing it. It has been a little while since playing the first and during the wait Dragon Quest Builders came and went (superb game, by the way). My easily confused mind was mixing up a block building g...[Read More]
