Yet another feather in the 3DS's very well-adorned cap.

If you don't have any of the Wii consoles, and you're interested in seeing what all the fuss is about, then I can't recommend this highly enough. Most gamers can expect over 80 hours of gametime, fantastic characters and voice-acting and some of the best graphics seen on a Nintendo handheld. Whether you buy this for your home console or your New 3DS, it's one of the better JRPGs to have launched in the last few years.

Everything you loved about Bravely Default, but with more interesting characters and a more captivating story.

9 / 10.0 - Stella Glow
Mar 11, 2016

Needless to say, I had a ball with Stella Glow. From the opening moments in Mithra Village the game had me hooked to it's satisfying story, rich characters, and rewarding strategic gameplay. That writing this review is the only thing keeping me from continuing my adventures with the 9th Regiment is perhaps the best way I can convey the utter delight I feel while playing. While the knowledge that the company that brought this game to life are defunct is sobering, at the very least the team at Imageepoch got to say goodbye with a fantastic effort. Who would have though witches and upbeat pop music could be such a winning combination?

For best results, equip Kanji with Dangerous Briefs.

If you like JRPGs (and maybe even if you don’t), you’ll want to find time for this game, though. Falcom haven’t tried to reinvent the wheel, because they wheel doesn’t need reinventing. Instead, they’ve set out to make the most magnificent damn wheel they could, and have succeeded with flying colours.

If this is to be the Vita’s swansong, it’s a fantastic one.

9 / 10.0 - FIFA 17

FIFA 17 feels like an evolution, rather than a marginal update.

9 / 10.0 - Bound
Aug 16, 2016

Bound is an ugly game, but it’s the most powerful, most enchanting kind of ugly. It dares to reject videogames’ obsession with “looking good” and instead focuses on using visual design to complement the core themes and emotional hook of the game. It’s an ugly game because, by taking those ugly fragments and piecing them together, we might just be able to find something beautiful.

Not so much a sequel, as the second episode in an epic saga.

You don’t often play an 80+ hour game that earns every second of the time it demands.

Half Dragon Quest, half Minecraft, all delightful.
