2D platformer/htoL#NiQ: The Firefly Diary/NISA/PlayStation Vita/puzzle/puzzle platformer/Reviews/Vita Review

htoL#NiQ: The Firefly Diary has a title that is impossible to pronounce, but it is not a random collection of letters there before the colon. That “htoL#NiQ” makes perfect sense the moment you start playing, because it is alien, otherworldly, and perfectly represents the kind of sheer, wonderful hostility that…

A fortunate number of us got to encounter one of those “special” teachers growing up. You know the type; ones that actually instilled something more profound than fractions or long division into your skull and their concepts and values helped forge your very identity. These gifted professors often adopt a…

Soundbars are all the rage at the moment. A good one is sleek and stylish, looks great sitting under the TV, and delivers a thumping, immersive sound. Most soundbars from most vendors are styled more towards the home cinema or use in TV. It’s a subtle difference to the kind…

Sitting back and watching a couple Yu-Gi-Oh! episodes with English subtitles sounds easy enough. After all, it’s an anime based on one of the most popular trading card games in the world.

Fighting game/fighting games/French Bird/NISA/PS3 Review/Reviews/Sony PlayStation 3/Under Night In-Birth EXE:Late

Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late hurts my hands to play, and I’m not entirely sure it’s worth it. The latest 2D brawler from French Bread and Arc System Works is fast, furious, and complex to a fault, and whether that is a good thing depends greatly on just how many of…

Another month, another pile of games to add to the pile of stuff we’ll probably never get around to finishing. March 2015’s release schedule is especially strong, especially for fans of Japanese games. This month we kick things off with Tokyo Twilight Ghost Hunters, a mix of visual novel and…

8-Bit Studio/Absolute Duo/action/anime/anime impressions/ecchi/harem

Every season of anime comes with its requisite ecchi and harem shows and Absolute Duo fits both bills rather nicely. So far it has presented a few notable tweaks to the formulas of genres that I feel have become oversaturated in recent years, which should appease the fans of the…
