Void Terrarium: A Heartfelt Roguelike

July 17, 2020

JRPG/Nintendo Switch/NISA/Roguelike/Video/Video review/Void Terrarium/void tRrLM(); //Void Terrarium

Video by Matt S. Void Terrarium is the latest from NISA, and it’s a beautiful and melancholic traditional roguelike. As someone who has become hesitant with the genre (every indie game thinks it’s a roguelike these days…), it is still one of my favourite genres when it gets things right,…

News by Matt S. I know we already went over this with the original Danganronpa releasing on mobile, but where’s our Switch port of the series, Spike Chunsoft? Danganronpa 2 is so good, too. Many would go as far as to say that the second was the peak for the…

Review by Matt S. Who hasn’t wanted to catch the attention of a succubus? I mean, other than anyone that remembers what succubi actually represented across the various religions that they pop up under in one guise or another… and what they were meant to do to the hapless souls…

Review: Paper Mario: The Origami King (Nintendo Switch)

July 15, 2020

JRPG/Nintendo/Nintendo Switch/Paper Mario/Paper Mario: The Origami King/Reviews/Switch Review

Review by Matt S. The performance of the Paper Mario series (and the Mario RPGs in general) has been patchy. The first two – Paper Mario on the Nintendo 64 and The Thousand-Year Door on the GameCube – are rightly considered in the upper echelons of Mario’s very long career.…

Developer Q & A: On what to expect from Gust’s upcoming Fairy Tail

July 15, 2020

Fairy Tail/Gust/Interview/Interviews/JRPG/Keisuke Kikuchi/Koei Tecmo

Interview by Matt S. Last year, three titles in the Atelier series released in a single year. In that context it is almost surreal that we’ve had to wait this long for Gust to drop its next game, but now it’s just around the corner. Fairy Tail is a licensed…

Review: Waifu Uncovered Nintendo Switch

July 15, 2020

action game/eastasiasoft/Nintendo Switch/Reviews/SHMUP/Switch Review/Waifu Uncovered

Well then. Waifu Uncovered is certainly a thing. A thing I never expected Nintendo to allow, in this state, onto the Switch. Publisher eastasiasoft certainly deserves credit for somehow making that happen. To stop beating around the bush, Waifu Uncovered is strip SHMUP, and while it doesn’t go quite as…

Ghost of Tsushima: A great history misfire

July 14, 2020

Ghost of Tsushima/history/Japanese History/open world game/PlayStation 4/Sony/Sucker Punch/Video/Video review

Video by Matt S. Ghost of Tsushima is Sucker Punch’s latest, and it is a really good open world action game, in just about every way. Combat is fun and fluid, the world is a technical marvel to explore, and the black & white mode is a lot of fun…

Review: Ghost of Tsushima (Sony PlayStation 4)

Review by Matt S. For a fraction of a second, I almost thought that developer, Sucker Punch, was going to surpass my expectations and deliver a game that genuinely understood and respected the samurai mythos. The opening moments of Ghost of Tsushima feature a small group of samurai facing down…

Gadget review: EPOS Sennheiser GSP 670 Wireless Headset

July 14, 2020

Gadget/Gadget Review/Gaming Headset/Hardware/Hardware Review/Headset/headsets/Sennheiser/Sennheiser GSP 670 Wireless Headset

Hardware review by Matt S. Now we’re talking. Last week I reviewed the relatively modestly-priced EPOS Sennheiser GSP 370 headset, which offered excellent sound quality through the speakers but let itself down by lacking key features and having a microphone that wasn’t useful for anything but the most casual gaming applications.…
