Read MoreReview by Clark A. It’s no secret that the original Corpse Party is an older horror game. The latest entry in the franchise is a polished version of that release and retains the original’s overall aesthetics and mechanics. What’s fascinating is that, 20 years later, Corpse Party is still a…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. XSEED had a heck of an E3, with titles such as Shantae, Corpse Party, Trails of Cold Steel‘s sequel, and Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns all showing the publisher’s versatility, and its understanding of the kind of niche experiences that people want to play. Among…

Read MoreReview by Clark A. Senran Kagura is a franchise known for its busty women just as much as its frantic, fast-paced brawls. The series has raised many an eyebrow for reasons you can decipher within seconds of viewing just about any screenshot, but it has always struck me as being…
Read MoreReview by Clark A. Akiba’s Trip: Undead and Undressed surprised me and likely not for the reasons you suspect. Yes, in a game where the player is permitted to indiscriminately shred the clothes off strangers in broad daylight, my biggest takeaway was not the liberty to don the stat-boosting panties…
