Announced since 2019, and delayed from an originally intended summer launch last year, Namco’s 17th installment in the long running Tales series, Tales of Arise, certainly has us intrigued. Thankfully, it seems that we won’t have to wait much longer in order to get a feel for how the newest entry will play, and fit,…
We have been doing a bunch of ‘top five game’ articles for weeks now. Some of these turned into top ten lists, as we would round out the lists with “Bottom 5 of the Top 10” features. But what about the worst games for each platform, and genre? Fear not, the wait is over. We…
The PlayStation 3 had many great Role Playing Games. We listed the Top Five RPGs according to critics a few weeks ago. This week, we are doing to the same thing but from the Users’ (gamers) perspective. As always, the amount of user reviews isn’t taken into consideration unless two or more games have the…
The Star Ocean series holds a special place in my heart. The second game in the series (The 2nd Story) remains one of my favorite J-RPGs of all time. The series is one of the longest running J-RPG franchises that continues to receive a console entry. However, in my personal opinion I feel that the…

Legrand Legacy: Tale of the Fatebounds is an interesting, and relatively cheap indie RPG that can be purchased on the Nintendo e-shop (and Xbox Live, and PS Store). What makes Legrand Legacy unique is that it is essentially a Japanese Role-Playing Game developed by a team of 27 western developers (Semisoft). During its two-year development…
Not too long ago, we did a list of the best PlayStation J-RPGs according to critics. Today, we are ranking the best PlayStation J-RPGs once again, but this time we are ranking them according to the games’ “User Scores”. Disclaimer: We are ranking the games based on their average global user score rating on Metacritic. It…
For all intents and purposes, Shenmue was billed as the game to save the Dreamcast. Shenmue was meant to be an ambitious multi-chapter saga set in an open world environment. According to multiple sources Shenmue and Final Fantasy VII hold the records for the most expensive games made in the 1990s. It is hard to…
Not much can be said about the PlayStation (the original console) that has not already been said over the past 26 years. The system turned ‘Video Games’ into a hip and cool hobby for all ages, and expanded the video gaming market in ways that few would have expected. But, which were the system’s best…
