Star Ocean The Second Story R Review
Star Ocean The Second Story R Review

Star Ocean: The Second Story R has brought a cult classic into a new era. It’s been thoughtfully retooled, but it’s still packed with all the heart and soul of the original. Graphically, it’s gorgeous, and the new quests and features range from fair to fabulous. It’s one of my favorite video games in even finer form.

Front Mission 2: Remake Review
Front Mission 2: Remake Review

A rough localization and some familiarly frustrating RNG-related issues bog it down, but Front Mission 2: Remake is probably worth the headaches overall.

Baldur's Gate 3 Review
Baldur's Gate 3 Review

Baldur's Gate 3 is a triumph, offering an incredible level of scope, depth, and reactivity that only comes around in role-playing games a couple of times a generation.

Star Trek: Resurgence Review

Dramatic Labs' narrative-driven entry in the Star Trek canon is a rocky ride, but a welcome one.

Front Mission 1st: Remake Review

Forever Entertainment's modern crack at a classic strategy RPG has its highs and lows, but I walk away from it feeling stoked for the Wanzer warfare remakes to come.

Digimon Survive Review
Digimon Survive Review

For a game that places so much weight on its cast and writing , Digimon Survive struggles to engage with poor characterization and weak storytelling.

Horizon Forbidden West Review
Horizon Forbidden West Review

Thematically rich and bursting with content, Horizon Forbidden West is a beautiful and bloated behemoth of a game.
