Final Fantasy XVI (its first four hours) have been sent to big website writers, and the preview notes are in. As we have discussed before Final Fantasy XVI will feature a much darker, more mature story, coupled with fast paced action combat. The previews have been largely positive, and most writers have loved the new…
Main (Nintendo EAD developed) Zelda games are never just good, they are either very good, or great, and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (so far) has proven to be the rule, rather than the exception. The game holds a 96% Metacritic rating as its average score from 87 reviews. That makes it…
On May 12th, one of the most anticipated video games of all time (when has a new The Legend of Zelda game not been a highly anticipated title?) arrives in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. With over 30 million units sold, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, is not only…
Xbox’s history in gaming now spans over two decades. Hard to believe that PlayStation, as a brand, is only about 5 years older. Still, the Xbox didn’t perform badly on its freshman debut, as the original Xbox (24 million units sold) managed to outsell Nintendo’s GameCube (21.7 Million units sold), and had a bunch of…
So, I know that trading games (JRPGs in this case) at GameStop will seem like a thing of the past to Generation Z gamers.

Video Games based movies might be shaking off their decades long reputation for being ‘bad’ films in recent times. Sonic The Hedgehog’s two films are entertaining, and for the most part, loyal to the source material of Sonic games. Unlike the Sonic films, Super Mario Bros. Is a full CG film, no live actors, and…
Final Fantasy XVI producer, Naoki Yoshida, is not shy about making big waves on the news. After going on a strange rant about how the term “JRPG” was discriminatory; a rant that stirred controversial takes amongst the JRPG fanzine. Yoshida takes controversy to a new level, yet again, by suggesting that Final Fantasy XVI took…
It’s no controversy to suggest that for over a decade, Sonic the Hedgehog has experienced a major slump in the standard of games produced. Sure, Sonic Colors and Generations garnered praise from the majority and games such as Sonic Riders and Sonic Unleashed had its fair share of admirers, but not to the level of…
And so, the eternal “is it a JRPG or just an RPG” discussion might be coming to a sudden end, as Final Fantasy XVI Producer, Naoki Yoshida, doesn’t want to box its upcoming game in the popular JRPG (there I said it!) franchise within the “JRPG” stereotypes. Yoshida, in a recent interview with Skill-Up, as…
