Review by Brad L. “Tonight I’ll die here, and I’ll take all of you sons of bitches with me” (you just threw that line in there so you could use swears in your review, didn’t you? – ed). Akane sets the tone for this slashfest right from the get go,…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I’m all for game developers and publishers bringing back the more obscure older titles for re-release on modern console. Games that perhaps didn’t get a fair outing the first time can be “discovered” by people a second time around, or games that proved to be influential…
