I was hoping this year would be a little more eventful and tough to pick a top 5, but it really isn’t. Sure, the top 5 are EXCELLENT and there are a few good runner ups, but there are also a lot of terrible MMOs and poorly thought out mobile games. There are 81 games […]

Comments Off on RPG of the Year – 2011Sequels I Would Love To See
October 14th, 2013 gunsage Sometimes you play the fuck the out of a game to the point that there’s literally nothing else, you’re left still wanting more.

How about the fact that it has excellent music, visuals, difficulty, demon auctions, and a […]
The Fantastic World of Japanese Games – Episode 1
January 23rd, 2012 gunsage People who understand emulation, even to a small degree, know all about the fantastic world of translated games that never left Japan.

I’m sure Valkyria Chronicles is awesome. There, I said it…but I don’t know personally, so I can’t put it […]
