Since 1995, the Tales series has graced consoles every generation (from the SNES to the Xbox Series X/PlayStation 5). Namco’s Action-RPG series has managed to outlast Suikoden, Lunar, Grandia, Wild Arms, Legend of Legaia, and maybe even Star Ocean on home consoles. In fact, apart from The Legend of Zelda, Pokemon, Dragon Quest, and Final…
The Xbox was Microsoft’s freshman console; its entry point into the console industry. Launched back in November 2001, the XBOX was mainly known for its brute hardware force (and Halo). Its specs far surpassed those of the PlayStation 2, and even Nintendo’s GameCube own technical numbers. The console was also known for some of the…
No one should question how great the Disney/Squaresoft Kingdom Hearts union has been, at least commercially. After 32+ million units sold (as of 2019), Kingdom Hearts, as a franchise, is one of the biggest names in the industry. I Wasn’t Big on the Union At First Truth be told, as a child, I wasn’t a…
After Tales of Arise marked Tales’ 17th Main entry (these main entries are complemented by a nearly uncountable number of remasters, and ports), the Tales series has established itself as one of the biggest JRPG franchises around. Now, it is as good a time as any, to reminiscence about the series, and what better…
The newest entry in the Ni No Kuni Series (Cross Worlds) is a mobile multiplayer game. Level-5 (Ni No Kuni, Dark Cloud, Rogue Galaxy) announced a few months ago that it was leaving the U.S. market in order to focus on the Japanese market, and the rapidly growing mobile gaming space. The move has paid…
The 1990s were awesome. Music was great, the Power Rangers were cooking, and video games had entered a new dimension. Magical times, indeed. Because the video game industry was in its infancy stages, genres that today are either extinct, or have gone into a niche segment of the gaming population, ruled the day during the…
Link and Zelda looked on in shock. It felt like a mere few seconds ago when they were in pursuit of this masked figure. However, it seemed like the tables had radically turned, with them as the captured fugitives of the masked figure. But something seemed very different. The attire the masked figure was…
Tales of Arise’s stunning commercial success (1 million copies sold in 7 days), assures that the series will continue into the future (yay!). So far (I am writing the game’s official review for the site), Arise, is by far, the best Tales game that I have played since Tales of Vesperia. That said, Namco clearly…
Unlike our previous ‘Best Nintendo 64 Games‘ list, which was mostly objective (we just listed the game based on professional critic averages score). Today’s list is -nearly – fully subjective. These are my personal favorite Nintendo 64 Games. The criteria used for the placement of these games is the following: How good (and impactful in…
Breath of Fire III is often remembered (perhaps, rightfully) as the more legendary game of the pair of PlayStation entries in this series. However, I truly found myself enjoying, for the most part, Breath of Fire IV. A Mid Tier RPG? One of the reasons why I enjoyed Breath of the Fire IV, is that…
