Final Fantasy Tactics. Disaega. Fire Emblem. Legna Tactica. Wait. What was that last one? Legna Tactica is a brand new strategy rpg for the 3DS eshop. Much like the other games named, you’ll be moving your characters across squares in various levels. Legna Tactica shares a lot in common with the games I mentioned, but is it a good game or just a cheap rip-off of other strategy rpgs? Legna Tactica has way too much dialogue! Its similar to Fire…

Read MoreSwords & Strategy: A Look At Legna Tactica for the 3DS
I love strategy rpgs. My favorite of this genre is still Final Fantasy Tactics for the PlayStation 1, though I am a huge fan of the recent entries in the Fire Emblem series. So when an indie developer brings a strategy rpg to the 3DS, I’m always interested. Legna Tactica is currently available on the 3DS eshop. I recently received a review copy of the game and I’ve been playing it a lot. My review isn’t ready yet, but I…

When compared to the Xbox One, the PS4 in my home gets very little use. Outside of a few great exlcusives such as the Uncharted Series, having a PS4 in my house doesn't serve much more of a purpose. That is, except for one series that I have been a fan of since the PS2 - The Tales Of series.
Read MoreLegna Tactica Battles Its Way to the 3DS Eshop Today
Kecmo has brought a lot of rpgs to the Wii U and 3DS eshop. All of these games have been turn based rpgs though. Legna Tactica, just released today for the 3DS eshop, is a bit different though. Legna is a strategy rpg! I love strategy rpgs. I may even love strategy rpgs as much as I love turn-based rpgs. The jury is still out on that one. What I can tell you is that I really love how Legna…
Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #54: Why Do I Want An NES Classic Edition?
The NES Classic Edition has been rare since day one. I couldn’t get one then and I still don’t have one now. I had the money at day one, but don’t have that now so couldn’t buy one even if I could find one. But why would I even want an NES Classic Edition? I’ve bought most of those games over and over again through the Wii, 3DS, and Wii U. Heck, I use to own the original NES. So…

I played Dragon Quest 8 when it was on the Playstation 2. I loved everything about the game, but I never did beat it. And now Dragon Quest 8 is on the 3DS.

If you’ve ever been walking along in an rpg and saw a cool building or awesome lankmark on the world…

Bringing all of these older Dragon Quest games to the Nintendo 3DS is a brilliant idea, and I'm loving every minute of it. Although Dragon Quest 8 doesn't boast the obvious improvements we saw in Dragon Quest 7
Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #52: Play & Learn
This More Thoughts From Me is about Edutainment games. You can and should learn from video games. Its great to have a fun game that has an entertaining story. We all want that escape from reality. Fun is important. But why can’t you, sometimes at least, have fun and learn something too? Most people seem to think of Edutainment as a genre for kids. Many of these games are, in fact, designed for little kids. Some, such as Brain Age,…
