Top Five JRPGs I Wish To Replay But Will Likely Never Get Around to Play Again

Posted on February 9, 2023 by Samuel Rivera

The married and parenting life has many positives, but hours on end of gaming time is not among these positive perks. There comes a time in life when one comes to the sad (tragic really) realization that there are some beloved games that one will never be able to play again to their completion. It…

Top 5 JRPGs That Deserved, but Didn’t Get a Sequel

Posted on July 28, 2022July 29, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

This one was a fun article to write and one that required a great deal of thought. The 1990s were filled with JRPGs, and most titles of the era received sequels…even within the span of a year or two after the release of the first game in their respective series. The games listed here are…

Games That Will Cost You a Kidney: Skies of Arcadia 

Posted on May 9, 2022June 10, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

The Dreamcast’s greatest Japanese role-playing game, and perhaps the best JRPG of the 2000s, is not as costly as other entries on this weekly series. However, purchasing a working copy (with case and booklets) of Skies of Arcadia remains a considerable investment in both of its versions.   Skies of Arcadia the Greatest JRPG of…

The Best 5 JRPGs on Sega Home Consoles

Posted on December 19, 2021January 21, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

For about two decades now, Sega home consoles have been extinct. If you are 22 years old or younger, it is likely that you have never played (or much less owned) a Sega Home Console. JRPG fans who did own Sega systems back in these systems’ “heydays” know that they didn’t have as many role-playing…

Top Five JRPGs that Should Be Remade/Remastered

Posted on December 13, 2021January 21, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

Japanese Role-Playing Game fans have been on fire lately on social media given the news/rumors of an upcoming Chrono Cross Remake/Remaster. Many of these fans cried tears of joy at the news, while others swallowed the bitter pill of disappointment, as their favorite JRPG didn’t get the ‘remake’ call. Thus, we have compiled a list…

The Five Best Selling Sega Dreamcast Role-Playing Games

Posted on October 13, 2021January 21, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

The Sega Dreamcast, Sega’s bright (but extremely brief) shooting star was the home to many great games, including some incredible Role-Playing Games. Unfortunately, the Dreamcast did not sell well, as Sega managed to move a paltry 9.13 million units of its final console. Consequently, the system didn’t have many million unit sellers, software wise. Sonic…

Sega’s New Mystery RPG? Tales of Arise is Quickest in Series to Hit 1 Million

Posted on September 17, 2021September 17, 2021 by Samuel Rivera

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…

The Top Five Sega Dreamcast RPGs According to Critics

Posted on September 4, 2021January 21, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

The Sega Dreamcast was not necessarily known for its wide library of great RPGs. Perhaps, this (the DC’s small RPG library) was due to a short lived life cycle, and to Sony’s dominance in that genre. Still, Sega’s final machine did have some real gems, and we have taken up the task of listing the…

Throwback Bit Thursday: Skies of Arcadia

Posted on April 8, 2021 by Samuel Rivera

The Dreamcast was a weird little system, not because there was anything wrong with it, but because it launched in the U.S. (9/9/1999) in the midst of late gen N64 software (which looked pretty good), and the beginnings of a massive PlayStation 2 hype campaign.  The Dreamcast needed to be massive sales success in order to…
