April 16, 2014

Final Fantasy/Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn/JRPG/MMO/PlayStation/PlayStation 4/Reviews/Sony/Square Enix

Review by Matt S. It’s hard to consider Final Fantasy XIV a true new release. Where you could argue that Tomb Raider or the upcoming re-release of The Last Of Us on PlayStation 4 require so much work that they deserve to be treated as original releases, Final Fantasy XIV…

Review by Sam M. Killzone: Shadow Fall was one of the two exclusives available on the PlayStation 4 at launch (the other being the rather terrible Knack), and as a competent shooter, it has remained high on the PS4 playlist for many since. The The Insurgent Pack DLC pack adds…

Review by Matt S. Of the “great American sports,” I appreciate Ice Hockey and Baseball the most. I like Ice Hockey because it’s a sport of sheer speed and aggression. Seeing a great play executed is a demonstration pure skill; it’s a sport that features speed, grace, elegance, and strength.…

News by Matt S. A game that apparently took over 10,000 hours to develop, SanctuaryRPG is an ASCII art RPG that will cost you precisely nothing to download. People who have fond memories of the likes of Zork and Nethack will appreciate the art style of the game. It’s old…

Review by Matt S. The Football Manager games have never had any right to be entertaining. Think about it; when we talk about hardcore simulation or strategy games, we often like to joke that they’re “spreadsheets;” a series of numbers and variables that can be manipulated to optimal effect. But…

News by Matt S. FINALLY! As much as we love Civilization (and we really, really do), strategy fans have been waiting for ages and ages for Firaxis to head back to the stars… the same place that served as inspiration for the truly awesome Alpha Centurai. And so I think…
