News by Matt S. Tales of Xillia was one of the most critically acclaimed titles in Bandai Namco’s long running JRPG franchise. And so, the publisher has released a direct sequel to the game. The E3 trailer from this year focuses very much on the idea of “choice,” with the…

100% Orange Juice/board game/digital CCG/Indie/Orange_Juice/PC/Reviews

Review by Jim S. 100% Orange Juice has nothing to do with Orange Juice (or Oranges for that matter). This is a board/ card/ dice game, of the old school variety where luck will come in handy. The game features characters from the Orange_Juice (the game’s developer) catalogue, such as…

News by Matt S. Metal Gear Solid has had a rocky couple of months, with Ground Zeroes not exactly going down well with everyone. We enjoyed it, but it’s been a controversial release indeed. The good news is that the game wasn’t the real deal. Metal Gear Solid V: The…

Bloodborne/E3/E3 2014/From Software/PlayStation/PlayStation 4/trailer/Trailers

News by Matt S. We had wondered how From Software would follow up on Dark Souls II. We had felt that perhaps that franchise had been tapped out as far as possible and that perhaps, just perhaps, the developer would be better off doing as it had with King’s Field…
