Video game reviews, fan fiction, gaming news, and more! Since 2003. We especially love JRPGs, RPGs and the best of the rest. Never Ending Realm: Where your favorite games live forever!
So, at this point, it is well known in the gaming world (it has been nearly 26 years), that Aeris (now known as Aerith) died (was murdered really) in Final Fantasy VII. Gamers born after the fact, or near it, will not quite appreciate the shock and awe factor, of watching a heroine, or better…
Twenty years ago, I was 17 years old, and had an extreme passion with playing JRPGs and reviewing them in written form. In reality, some of my oldest reviews were written way before 2003, and on an actual ‘word processor’ typewriter. Reviews for games like Suikoden, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and Final…
Cyberpunk 2077, at one point, was the most overhyped RPG in history. Its hype, was mainly based on CD Projekt’s stellar reputation as a great developer with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. Despite the fact that Cyberpunk 2077 was set in a world that couldn’t have been more different from The Witcher’s and that it…
If you have read my work on this site, you will know that I like the Fable series, and that its reboot is one of my most anticipated titles on the Xbox Series X. Microsoft, so far, has had nothing to compete against Sony’s Ghost of Tsushima and Horizon series in the open world role…
And so, a year and a half after our historically successful (yes, we went viral) April Fool’s Joke about The Legend of Dragoon’s remake; the hate mail keeps pouring in. Despite the fact that we hinted plenty of times during the article/interview spoof that it was an April Fool’s joke, and it was published on…
Final Fantasy XVI’s new trailer, aptly titled, “ambition”, is out. I had to watch it a few times to digest certain aspects of the much awaited entry; an entry which further distances itself from the older traditional style of turn-based party combat. The new entry, helmed by Naoki Yoshida, seems, at least in my view,…
Now, the heading above, will sound hypocritical to some who have read our reviews over the past 20 years (the site turns 20 in 2023). Until very recently, I did not like Final Fantasy VIII; at least, not nearly as much as I did its legendary predecessor. Final Fantasy VIII was the first video game…
Role-Playing Games are known for their epic stories, and convincing fantasy worlds. On this top five, I will try to list the RPGs that I have replayed the most over time. These games are from different eras, and some might not be as replayable today, as some of the more modern games. However, these games…
Generally speaking, the mid to late 1990s are considered the golden age of the Japanese Role Playing game genre. High Quality JRPGs flooded the PlayStation in quantities not seen since on any system. Amongst the sea of stars, some of these titles were poorly received by critics despite the fact that they were quite good…
The Suikoden series has been dead for over a decade. Slow sales of traditional JRPGs during the tail end of the PlayStation 2 era played a part in the franchise’s demise. And yet, not all hope is lost. Konami announced last week that a remastered bundle of the Suikoden I & II is coming in…
