JRPG/News/PC/Persona 4/Persona 4 Golden/Rumour

News by Matt S. Okay, so this is just rumour at this stage, but Gematsu has found compelling evidence to suggest that Persona 4 Golden is coming to PC on June 13. Putting aside the more innovative, genre-bending NieR titles, Persona 4 Golden is the smartest, most intelligent, deepest and…

Review by Matt S. Within the JRPG circles, it’s a weird kind of blasphemy if you fail to enjoy a Ys title. People have a passionate attachment to this series… so kick back and watch me give praise to Baphomet, because I’ve never managed to quite get along with Ys:…

Review by Matt S. I’ll play basically anything pinball. It’s something I’ve grown up with my entire life and to this day I love quality pinball action. The Nintendo Switch is well served there – even if you ignore Zen Studios’ brilliant Pinball FX3, there’s niche stuff like Zaccaria Pinball,…

Bug Fables/Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling/Indie/JRPG/PlayStation 4/PS4 Review/Reviews

Review by Matt S. Generally, when a game from a major publisher like Nintendo proves to be popular, there are efforts by the indies to participate in that success by crafting homages to the original success story. Often these end up as shallow pastiches, but occasionally the indie will strike…
