SaGa Frontier, is a somewhat strange Japanese Role-Playing game that found critical success in Japan in 1997. The 32-bit era RPG is getting the ‘remaster’ treatment despite the fact that its critical reception stateside was mixed to say the least. The title was not a hit with American audiences, as its 71/100 Gamerankings’ meta score…
As we previously reported, Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla’s release was plagued with bugs, and glitches on every platform. Many gamers were particularly bothered by the awful screen tearing on Xbox consoles. Worst of all, some bugs were even breaking the game on the PlayStation 4. Ubisoft released a massive patch on Thursday (Thanksgiving Day) that solved…
The 23rd of November (three days ago), marked The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time‘s 22nd birthday. Yes, it has been a whooping 22 years since we first got our hands on what in my opinion remains – to this day – Nintendo’s finest gaming moment. It is only natural that today’s throwback section takes…

Arc The Lad: Twilight of the Spirits, might just be the best PlayStation 2 JRPG that almost no one ever played. In fact, in terms of its plot, it might just be one of the best JRPGs ever, period. The 2003 game, is the sixth installment in the legendary Arc the Lad series. The series…

The Xbox Series X, and the PlayStation 5 are finally here, and we are grading them based on technical specifications, games, and services. Both, Sony and Microsoft offer new,…
It is Xbox Series X’s launch week, and the week wouldn’t be complete without some of Phil Spencer’s quotes and musings on Xbox and Halo. The Xbox Series X, so far, has had a very successful launch for Microsoft. GameSpot sat down with Xbox Head, Phil Spencer, and we have taken the task of summarizing,…
Let’s get this out of the way: Dragon Warrior VII, by far, is the worst Japanese Role-Playing Game that I have ever played. In some ‘throwback bit’ sessions I have remembered the great, but today, it is time to look back at the other end of the spectrum. Now, Dragon Warrior/Quest (Quest in Japan, and…
Final Fantasy X‘s protagonist, Tidus, is one of the greatest leading men in the history of SquareEnix’s long running Japanese Role-Playing Game (JRPG) series. He is certainly better than Final Fantasy VIII’s Squall. The previous sentence shouldn’t cause much controversy, as Squall’s bland, lone wolf persona was absolutely mystifying, and at times, frustrating. If it…
Melodies of Life Final Fantasy IX turns 20 next week. It is hard to believe that it has been two decades since I first booted up the game on my old PlayStation console, but time sure flies. Just like its soundtrack (which is Uematsu’s favorite), and its main theme song “Melodies of Life”. Final Fantasy…
