Earlier this year, various news outlets came out and said that the Nintendo Switch would receive two revisions in 2019. A smaller, more handheld version was all but guaranteed, and in July 2019 Nintendo confirmed the Switch Lite’s existence and September 2019 release. The other revision was referred to by most…
I am nearly four months late writing this, but better late than never. I will preface this by saying that prior to this I had never seen anything related to Ultraman. In fact, my experience with even the tokusatsu genre is extremely limited. Power Rangers is the closest I’ve gotten, and yet, it formed the basis for…
It has long been the dream of Halo fans to get either a proper Hollywood film or, failing that, a television adaptation. It was practically a no-brainer that such a project would star the Master Chief, it was also a given that the show would be set during the Human-Covenant War Era (2525 - 2552). All we’ve known up…
Microsoft has a very hit or miss past with the PC platform. Some of their franchises never hit PC in the first place, while others released one or two titles on the platform and no more. With Microsoft’s newfound commitment to the PC platform and bringing all future exclusives to it, long running series are finally…
UPDATE 7/10/19: So, in an unexpected turn of events, Nintendo officially announced the Nintendo Switch Lite. Not the Switch Mini, not the Switch 2 Mini, but the Switch Lite. Same concept really. So how does it stack up to the rumors on which this article, written only a day ago, were based? Poorly, quite poorly. The…
When Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio announced that Yakuza 6: The Song of Life would be the final installment of Kazuma Kiryu’s story, I was understandably worried about the series future. After all, Kiryu is one of the greatest protagonists in all of gaming(in my opinion), and while the individual stories of each were hit or…
While E3 isn’t quite over yet, all of the major press conferences have come and gone, including the after shows like Nintendo Treehouse and Inside Xbox. You’re unlikely to see anymore major announcements from publishers. At the very least, I’ve seen all that I need to see, and while a good chunk of what I hoped to…
E3 2019 is only a week away and there’s plenty to be excited about going into this years show. Sure, Sony won’t be attending this year, but we’ve still got everyone else and even Square Enix is getting in on the fun with an actual conference. Now, I’m not here to make predictions for once. This article is entirely…
(There will be spoilers. You have been warned.)
Yesterday, Wall Street Journal Japan came out saying that sources inside Nintendo claimed the console maker has not one, but two Switch revisions in development, both to revealed sometime around E3, and released mere months later. One is intended to be a budget model, while the other is meant to be an enthusiast…
Over four years ago, Microsoft and 343 Industries, the current custodians of the Halo franchise, announced and released Halo: The Master Chief Collection. This collection contained the four numbered entries of the Halo series, including the Anniversary editions of Halo 1 & 2. There was also a functioning online…
When the Nintendo Switch was first revealed as a home console-handheld hybrid device, it was inevitable that Pokemon would make the jump from the 3DS to the Nintendo Switch. Many expected this game to release in 2018, but instead we got spin-off titles while the core titles were given extra time. Speculation was…
We’re almost a month and a half into 2019 and we have yet to have a proper Nintendo Direct for 2019 to show us what we should be looking forward to this year for Nintendo Switch(Sorry 3DS, you’re pretty much done.). It’s not that we don’t know a few of the games slated for release in 2019, but their release dates are…
I’m a fan of visual novel developer Key’s works, both in their original and animated forms. They’re beautiful romance stories filled with life and laughter. The emotions begin to hit you not too long into the stories, but both Kanon and Clannad, the two I’m familiar with, are longer form stories so there’s plenty of…
Tetsuya Nomura, director of the Kingdom Hearts series and the current director of the Final Fantasy VII Remake, is known for longer than normal development cycles. Before work on Kingdom Hearts III began, Nomura was the director of another project at Square Enix, the long delayed Final Fantasy Versus XIII which…
Sometimes, games are great when everything is set in stone and laid out before you. And sometimes, games are even greater when they let you define how you relate to other characters in the game. When I first played Fire Emblem Awakening I was immediately sucked in by the support system, not just for the bonuses in…
So, full disclosure, I’ve never played a Resident Evil game before, not unless the demo of Resident Evil 6 counts. Though depending on who you ask, RE6 isn’t a true Resident Evil game anyway. Despite being born in 1996 and owning a Sony PlayStation, playing demos of games like MediEvil, Metal Gear Solid, and Tomb…
Over the past two years, even before the Nintendo Switch was announced, there were rumblings of a SKU that was more powerful than what we ended up getting at launch. These rumors have persisted throughout the last two years with many claiming that “inside sources” have confirmed the existence of a newer Nintendo…
I went to go see Dragon Ball Super: Broly when it first hit theaters in the US this past Wednesday, and it’s one of the best Dragon Ball films, if not THE best. But while I was riding the hype train throughout, I failed to pick up on a few things that, thankfully, TeamFourStar did and pointed out in their spoiler…
Over the last 5 months, the conversation surrounding Battlefield V has been dominated by the developers inclusive, yet divisive decisions regarding the multiplayer portion of the game. And to be honest, despite how much I wanted a World War II Battlefield game, the game they were advertising just wasn’t what I had…
