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.

Before checking out this final review-in progress, please go check out part 1, part 2, and part 3. I’ve beaten Final Fantasy 15 Pocket Edition HD now. What do I think of the game? I love Final Fantasy 15 Pocket Edition HD. The story hooked me from the start. Yes, there were confusing aspects, but I liked what I understood and most of all, the friendship of the main characaters carried the story through both the good and bad parts.…

In part 1 of my review in progress of Final Fantasy 15 Pocket Edition HD, I talked about the game’s story. In part 2, I talked about the game’s battle system and exploration. In part 3, I will talk about some of the faults of FF15 Pocket and one of my favorite things about it. Final Fantasy 15 Pocket Edition HD has bad load times. When you first start up the game, every time, there is a black screen for…

Armed with turn-based tactical rpg gameplay, Super Dungeon Tactics invaded the Nintendo Switch last week. I have a review copy of it and I’m finally ready to let you know whether or not you should check out this game. Is Super Dungeon Tactics worth visiting? The story in Super Dungeon Tactics isn’t that great. Its very basic actually. What saves it from being boring is the game’s sense of humor! The character dialogue is pretty funny. The story and dialogue…

In Part 1 of my review-in-progress of Final Fantasy 15 Pocket Edition HD, I talked about the game’s story. In part 2, I want to focus on the game’s battle system and exploration. How much does the battle system feel like a traditional FF experience? What about the exploration? Final Fantasy 15 Pocket Edition doesn’t have a turn-based battle system. I really wish it did. The battle system in FF15 isn’t horrible, in fact I’ve been enjoying for the most…

Over the weekend, I got to play the Dark Souls: Remastered Network Test. I had never played Dark Souls before. And…I found out that I really suck at the game. The following new video from Nintendo UK is a very accurate representation of how I felt while playing Dark Souls! The Dark Souls Remastered Network Test has come and gone. I thought that the graphics were really good. The gameplay seemed good too. Although… I did not get very far…

Earlier this week, I provided my first impressions of Final Fantasy 15 Pocket Edition HD for Nintendo Switch. I have continued to the play the game and wanted to provide some more thoughts. For part 1 of this review-in-progress, I wanted to talk about the game’s story a bit more. Am I still enjoying it? I really like Final Fantasy 15 Pockete Edition HD so far. There is a lot to like about the game. And one of my favorite…

Many turn based role playing games have drawn from the experience and development of the Dragon Quest series, and true to the original release, Square Enix has actually done very little to overhaul the battle system they have implemented. Sure, there are a few new ways to deal damage, and a new movement option in Dragon Quest 11, but it's mostly stuck to the core mechanics that have made the franchise so successful for so long. And that's not a bad thing.

The Tokyo Game Show is going on now and we can expect some game announcements and new trailers to be shown. Square Enix has already shown a few new trailers, including another look at World of Final Fantasy Maxima! Check the new trailer out below and then please come back for my thoughts on it. I really like the look of World of Final Fantasy. The bigger characters look like the human characters from Kingdom Hearts, meanwhile the smaller characters…

Last night, Sony announced that they will be coming out with their own mini console (like the NES and SNES Classic). The Playstation Classic will be a small version of the PS1 and have twenty games built in. Check out the video announcement below, along with more details and my thoughts on the device. Playstation Classic will be coming out on December 3rd, 2018. It will cost $99 US (CAD$129.99), have twenty games built in, a USB cable, an HDMI…
