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.…

More Thoughts From Me #139: Final Fantasy 7 Spoilers
Final Fantasy 7 is coming to the Nintendo Switch next year. I dreamed of writing those words but I never thought it would actually happen. Final Fantasy 7 on a Nintendo platform!? Final Fantasy 7 on Nintendo’s console/handheld hybrid?! No way! Yes way. Its happening. And so I felt that now might be a good time to talk about my favorite moments of the game. If you’ve never played it before, don’t read this article. There are spoilers in this…

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 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…

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.

Read MoreSuper Dungeon Tactics
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…

Ever wanted to sink a shot from so far downtown, you might not even be on the basketball court anymore? Think of those viral videos of Lebron James lobbing full court shots in practice, throw in some opposition players, and a close score of 97-94, and you've got the makings of an exciting finish. Although full court shots won't be a prerequisite for scoring a 4 point shot, it does paint a nice picture, doesn't it?

Read MoreFinal Fantasy 15 Pocket Edition HD Review-in-progress Part 2
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…
Read MoreDark Souls: Remastered – Keep calm (video)
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…
