The title of this article might cause some initial confusion and maybe create some controversy. Does the “FFVII Fan” (in this case, me) want Final Fantasy VI to have been remade instead because he hated Final Fantasy VII Remake and wants FFVI fans to have to endured the same pain? Or is there more than…
Back in August last year, I replied to some of the ‘hate mail’ we received from our historic, and most popular fiction work on the site: The Legend of Dragoon April Fools Remake Spoof. Since then, the article has remained a popular fixture on our site, and we have made some new enemies, and perhaps,…
Could it finally be? A The Legend of Dragoon remake? It is hard for me to confirm that at this moment. As details of this ‘high-end’ Japanese Role-Playing Game have been scarce, in fact, ‘scarce’ is an overstatement. Mutan Insight is the development team hiring talent for said high-end JRPG remake.

Before we get into the meat of the argument, this entire analysis and its eventual outcome is solely based on the original game. Why the Original Game is the Only Piece of Final Fantasy VII Related Work that Will Be Taken Into Account Final Fantasy VII was a complete work, and it is the only…
When we think of Japanese Role-Playing Games (turn based or action), and some of its most iconic heroes/heroines most of us think of Cloud, Terra, Locke, Zidane, Link, etc. The Final Fantasy series has been the most popular JRPG franchise on the west (let’s pretend for a moment that Pokemon doesn’t exist), and as a…
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…
