That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Isekai Chronicles Review
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Isekai Chronicles strives to retell a chunk of Rimuru’s story, but does so through this medium to limited success.

Visions of Mana is the first mainline Mana game in nearly two decades and, despite some issues, is a great step forward for the series.

This new installment in the gunpla action RPG series is like watching an old friend rebound from tough times; it may not be as great as its mainline predecessors in some regards, but it is a solid course correction from the last few dire entries.

Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader Review
Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader is an uneven yet engaging game that's brimming with things to discover and a uniquely compelling narrative that is at times both hopeful and poignant.

The most beautiful cutscenes and gorgeous environments, surrounded by a plague of frustrating design choices and performance issues.

Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail Review
While it hasn't completely lost its luster, Dawntrail proves that it's about time for Final Fantasy XIV to change.

Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn Review
Although Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn has satisfying combat, this entry-level souls-like RPG is held back by some bland questing and a forgettable narrative.

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess Review
Capcom's Kagura Action game mostly sticks the landing with its unique gameplay, though an identity crisis hold's it back.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak Review
Despite my issues with some of the characters, Almata, and the underlying Xipha system, I still enjoyed my time at Calvard, seeing old friends and meeting new ones, and I am eager to return to one of my favorite long-form fictional works.

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Review
Shadow of the Erdree is an excellent expansion to Elden Ring. Poison swamps, giant swords, and fingercreepers return, better than ever.

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance Review
While the Vengeance re-release doesn't fundamentally change what Shin Megami Tensei V is, numerous adjustments and improvements allow SMTV to be the best version of itself.

Cryptmaster is a great idea, yet it stops just short of great execution
by James Galizio on 02 June, 2024
System Shock's remake is an enjoyable and well-made immersive sim that runs well on PlayStation 5, but the new gamepad control scheme leaves a lot to be desired.

Dread Delusion sets out to create a haunting open world, evoking RPGs of the past - and succeeds.

Megaton Musashi W: Wired Review
Level-5's giant robot action RPG is one of the most fully-featured games in the modern era with a compelling story, fun gameplay, and loads of in-depth customization systems that makes this hidden gem, unexpectedly, one of the best games of the year so far.

The spirit of Soul Sacrifice remains, but Thirdverse's successor doesn't quite stick the landing.
by James Galizio on 02 May, 2024
Stellar Blade is a substantial and gorgeous-looking action RPG with exciting combat, but its narrative is undermined by flat characterization and frequently lifeless storytelling.
by Josh Tolentino on 26 April, 2024
SaGa Emerald Beyond is a bold celebration of the series' past and present, warts and all.
by James Galizio on 24 April, 2024
Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes Review
While there is room to improve and some blemishes throughout, Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes has excellent presentation & nostalgic charm, and I cannot overstate enough how glad I am that it exists.

Neptunia Sisters vs. Sisters Switch Review
Neptunia Sisters vs. Sisters on Switch is a decent port if you're looking for Neptunia on the go, but there are much better home options available.

The Legend of Legacy HD Remastered Review
I'm not sure what to feel about The Legend of Legacy HD Remastered. I don’t really mind the game's minimalist approach to narrative, but the dungeon design, repetitive battles, and difficulty walls I hit made it hard to press on.
by Paige Chamberlain on 09 April, 2024
Unicorn Overlord seems allergic to risk-taking, and it makes for a safe and enjoyable product that fails to introduce anything new. So when I was given just a passable game, I couldn’t help but be let down.
by Cullen Black on 02 April, 2024
Team Ninja's ambitious open-world action RPG is one of the best games about the Bakumatsu era ever, but its repetitive, uninspired open-world activities bog down what is an otherwise captivating experience.
