Final Fantasy IX came to the Nintendo Switch and the Xbox One last month. You can check out my review of the Switch version here. I enjoyed it a lot. And if you are interested in the development of the FFIX, then you should check out Square Enix’s Inside Final Fantasy IX video below. I love Final Fantasy IX. It was such a treat to play it again and review it for GamesReviews.com. Final Fantasy 7 will be coming to…

I am a huge Castlevania fan. I love the NES ones, the SNES games, Symphony of the Night, and all the GBA and DS ones. And so when Konami announced last night that there would be an Anniversary Collection of Castlevania games released this year, well, I went nuts. There will also be an arcade collection and a Contra collection! Konami has announced that they will be releasing Arcade games, Castlevania, and Contra collections this year. They will be available…

In an age of early access games and update-driven releases, it is a rarity indeed to find a game that, upon release, truly feels like a finished product. Too often are developers pressured into pushing their games out too quickly, leading to outrage from the community and an overall poor experience. The lesson to be learned here is that quality cannot be rushed, and that developers need to remind gamers of this fact and not allow themselves to make compromises for an earlier release date. Ubisoft, for its part, has certainly known for its resistance to this ...

Square Enix has released a new trailer showing off all the Final Fantasy games that are coming to the Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 (also: Final Fantasy 9). Please take a look at it and then come back for my thoughts on the games. I absolutely love this video. What a fantastic legacy of games! Most of them will be coming to the Switch and Xbox One this year. Chocobo’s Dungeon EVERY BUDDY and Crystal Chronicles will be…

If you've played a One Piece game in the past, there won't be too much familiar here outside the main cast of characters, of which only Luffy is playable. Instead of falling back on the decades old mechanics and game play of past titles, the development team decided to look to new heights, and tackled an ambitious, open world approach to the game. Does it pay of after the nearly 20 hour campaign? Let's dive in!

Right from the get-go, looking at the cover graphics of Ubisoft’s Trials Rising, you can make a good guess of what you are going to see when you first fire this game up. Cool graphics, lots of loops, jumps and racing adventure. As this game comes from a publisher which has given us epics like the Far Cry and Assassin's Creed series, I had high expectations right out of the gate. Yes, the opening cinematic and music told me there was fun and adventure to come – crack open the throttle and let's get going!

Striving to dominate the MMO console-shooter world, EA's newest title, Anthem, has landed. Anthem puts you in the driver's seat of 'Iron Man' style mech suits that you fly around in to dispatch hordes of enemies. However, as tends to happen when a game receives an abundance of pre-release hype (did you too receive dozens of ads on Twitch and YouTube for this game? I sure did!), the community has quickly revolted on Anthem and its creators. This begs the question, does Anthem really deserve all the hate? Or the hype it garnered before that? Let's take a look!

The LEGO Movie 2 was a fantastic experience when I went and saw it in theatres, and whenever there is a great cinema experience, there are high hopes for the LEGO game that spins off from that. LEGO titles over the last number of years have really been hit-and-miss, so jumping into any LEGO experience always has the potential for disappointment. The LEGO Movie 2 Videogame takes a much different route than other LEGO games based on movies, and while this isn't all bad, we felt the game ultimately shipped a few weeks - potentially months? - too early. Let's dive in!

Earlier today, Ubisoft announced the full details for The Division 2 Post-Launch content, including the entire year of free content as well as the Year 1 Pass. This content follows The Division 2's endgame focus by giving players a full year of free post-launch updates with additional Episodes, major content updates, missions, PvP and PvE game modes, and specializations. Each specialization brings a new signature weapon and an entirely unique skill tree to unlock and master as players take on these new high-level challenges. 

I usually do my best to avoid any story spoilers, but when providing context for Far Cry New Dawn, that seems a near impossible task. So here we go, an official Spoiler Alert: At the end of Far Cry 5, a nuclear weapon is detonated over Hope County. This sets in motion a chain of events that lead to New Dawn, set 17 years into the post-apocalyptic life of the same region. A new threat has emerged and taken control of the region, and once again it is up to us to stop them.
