This is the game I’ve been waiting for SEGA to officially remaster and put on the switch.  Read more

Yep, excellent game. Loved it on the Dreamcast back then. Simple, optimistic, adventurous, one of the few RPGs that began to use voice actors.  Read more

Skies is one of my all time favorite Dreamcast memories. I hope it gets a proper release on Steam like Grandia II did.

If you want a gear-level perspective, a quarter-million probably buys you one top-end piece of crafted combat armor (which is just below top token gear in capability). Read more

How long would it take to earn that through normal gameplay? Does gold still matter in endgame or is it mostly worthless like some other mmo’s I’ve played Read more

Ugh, the final dungeon is such a pain in the ass. Darknuts are tricky even without having to worry about which way is up. Read more

This is the kind of game journalism I love. I know Reviews are the bread and butter, but I never would have heard of this otherwise. Read more

My friends and I have been playing, and it really injects some freshness into an already fun game. Read more

Absolutely delighted Sonicfox won. This is the award I had the most hope for (even though Evo got the second biggest pop out of the crowd behind Overwatch League for E-Sports Event), and I’m so thrilled such a dope guy actually got it. This is a win for the FGC in a big way, I think, because I don’t feel we get the Read more

There were so many things about this show that just felt good to watch. SonicFox’s reaction was great, and I really enjoyed the God of War team’s reaction to their wins too - they seemed genuinely shocked to win the award over RDR 2. Plus the music performances were a lot of fun! I know there will be the usual Read more

All according to the plan. Now we just need money. WE NEED MORE MONEY TO EXECUTE THE PLAN Read more

Agreed these are some really great changes. Even small things like rewards for fighting krakens and megs go a long way.  Read more

This is so true. I’ve been playing FFXIV for a while now and always thougth Healing looked way too complicated. But I played as SMN anyway, which comes with an equally leveled Scholar, so I decided to try it. And it’s so much fun! Me and a friend of mine love doing the 8-player Duties so that we can both be Healer and Read more

Mexican Standoffs should be an equal Posse option besides parlays and Feuds. Read more

Ive been having a lot of fun in RD2 Online. Only gripe as most people is how expensive things are. I really would like to get some new weapons and upgrade them. But to be fair the repeater and revolver you get from the get go really hasn’t slowed me down any. Read more

One month in and... I’m still on Chapter 3. Where do people find the time? Read more

I finished this game about a week and a half after it came out, and I gotta say that I am appreciating the ride more on my second play through than I did the first.

Kotaku’s review said it, but I didn’t take it to heart: this is a game that demands to be taken slowly. I felt compelled to move from story mission to side Read more

amazing that it was never set on fire and dunked from 40 feet Read more
