I’ve never played The World Ends With You. I saw some previews for the game on the DS and didn’t think the game would be for me. Now that the game is coming to the Nintendo Switch, I’ve been looking at some previews and what I’m seeing is very interesting. Check out the latest trailer for Nintendo and then please come back here for my thoughts for it. The battles in The World Ends With You look intense and very…

Shadows: Awakening Review
Released just over a month ago, Shadows: Awakening is an isometric dungeon-crawler RPG with a rich storyline and intriguing game mechanics. Brought to us by Slovakian developer Games Farm, Awakening is the second installment in the Heretic Kingdoms saga. If you’re suddenly worried that you missed the first game, don’t be – this game plays great standalone and you will do just fine treating this as a solo game. For gamers who have dabbled in franchises like Diablo or Path of Exile but didn’t stick around because of the repetitive grind, lack of puzzles and ...

Read MoreXenoblade Chronicles: Torna -The Golden Country Review Part 2
Check out part 1 of my review-in-progress. In part 2, I talk about Torna’s battle system. I’ve already said that its better than Xenoblade Chronicles 2’s system. Why is that? How do you improve on something that is already so good? I’m usually not a fan of auto-attacking combat but Xenoblade Chronicles 2 made their battle system very interesting by giving players options when it came to special attacks for your main person and sometimes other people in your group.…

Adam Roffel, GamesReviews.com’s editor-in-chief, asked me if I wanted to review Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna -The Golden Country for the Nintendo Switch. I said yes right away. I had played Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and liked it. I wasn’t sure if I’d ever get to play Torna though because I had been busy playing other games. I have a free slot of time now and I’m more than ready to take a trip to Torna! Here is part 1 of my…
Read MoreDragon Quest 11 – Review Chapter 4 – Need More Musicians in Dragon Quest
As we move onto Chapter 4 of our review, we've only had glowing things to say about Dragon Quest 11. The voice acting is fantastic, the environments beautiful, and the story-to-date has been top notch. I was wondering if GamesReviews would be handing out another elusive 10/10 score to this title, but after about 25 hours of gameplay I'm realizing one major flaw. The music in Dragon Quest 11 is atrocious, and I can't imagine how this was overlooked, when everything else is so, so good.
