Pet Quest
I downloaded this mostly because I wanted to get a feel for what was already out there when fishing for ideas for Jerako: Walk With Me! Sometimes knowing what’s already out there helps you understand what people expect and therefore want to see. And for what it is, it’s cute, but not really the sort […]

Retro is not good; last-gen is not bad
I’ve seen a couple videos lately on the Jak and Daxter series and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion saying they have to be enjoyed as a product of their time because they just aren’t good by today’s standards, and in both cases they made the admission that it wasn’t graphics they were talking about. The […]

Why The Legend of Dragoon isn’t being remade
Let it never be said that fans of The Legend of Dragoon aren’t a tenacious bunch, with them having just jumped on yet another remake project asking for this one-hit wonder to get some love instead.

Long story short, this is a game I found seeing just how dead my Razer Forge was after I realized Razer was no […]

In an environment where Skyrim has come out on everything but baby monitors and the market is flooded with HD remakes like Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning and all of […]

Digimon World: Next Order
This is a game I’ve owned for a while now, but never quite understood or thought I’d like. A former housemate of mine did play it extensively, but the description of the systems didn’t sound at all appealing because the idea of my mons dying has never been an appealing one. That said, something clicked […]

Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth
Fair warning, this game is rated T for Teen and so is this review. Since Digimon Survive seems too much like "Digimon meets Digital Devil Saga" for my tastes, I probably will not be playing it, though in its own way it does sort of sound like the original show aged up for a more […]

Buffers Evolution
The game I got a WonderSwan for, based on a random YouTube video on the WonderSwan. It’s an original WonderSwan game owned by Bandai and outsourced to Koto Laboratory, releasing near the end of 1999, which means it’s purely in monochrome. Still, the off mention of it on YouTube caught my attention because it certainly […]
