I recently replayed my way through Final Fantasies 1 through 6 on the Pixel Remaster remakes and wanted to share my thoughts and journey! So without further ado… Let’s begin…

Maneater Review
These days, I find that true open world western RPGs are a better fit for me than non Soulsborne/Zelda Japanese RPGs. Playing Maneater and its cheap Expansion to the very end within a week is confirmation of the growing chasm between myself and modern JRPGs. I shouldn’t have enjoyed Maneater as much as I did, but…
Aidyn Chronicles Review: The Forgotten N64 Open World RPG
If you have read my work on the site, you know that the Nintendo 64 is my personal favorite home console of all time. I loved its games (even some of the bad ones), and its pure polygon crunching power which far surpassed that of its contemporary rivals (PS1, Sega Saturn), and at least until…
Spider-Man 2 PS5 Review: A Passable, but Inferior Sequel to a PS4 Great

Final Fantasy XVI Review: The Most Entertaining Final Fantasy in Decades
Yoshida, and Creative Business Unit III, crafted an experience in Final Fantasy XVI, that in my opinion, delivers a storyline, and audio/visual presentation on par with some of Sakaguchi’s best work. Yes, in my opinion, Final Fantasy XVI is a worthy successor to Final Fantasy X (XI, and XIV were online entries, FFXII was great,…
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Review
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is a continuation of Breath of the Wild’s gigantic world, and powerful engine. Given its six year development cycle, TotK is larger, and more enthralling than its predecessor. It is marvelous feat of game design on a machine that really belongs in 2013, in terms of technology….

Sonic Frontiers (PS5/XSX) Review
My 6 year old son’s obsession with Sonic is what drove me to purchase, and play Sonic’s newest entry with him. Truth be told, while I have played nearly all of the entries within the Sonic series; I haven’t been excited about a Sonic game since 1998, and Sonic Adventure’s Dreamcast reveal. Sonic (Despite its…
God of War: Ragnarok (PS4/PS5) Review
2018’s God of War is one of the best game of all time, and certainly, one of the best games on the PlayStation 4’s stellar catalogue of exclusive games. Its sequel does nothing to take the series somewhere new. It is a continuation of the first game’s storyline, and its gameplay mechanics. Raganarok is slightly…
