Back in December 2008, Japan got a new RPG title called The White Knight Chronicles. A new Role Playing Game developed by Japan Studio and Level-5 (the same guys who brought us such titles as Dark Cloud and Rogue Galaxy) and published by the good old people at Sony Entertainment. Almost two years has passed since the release in Japan, then finally in north america on February 2nd 2020, the game decides to show up on game store shelves, then [...]
Last year we saw a miniature uprising in the games industry. Casual gaming made an all time high with the release of both Wii Fit and Wii Fit plus, with Wii Fit becoming the biggest selling game of all time. Both the Guitar Hero and Rock Band franchises went into overdrive, releasing a grand total of two new Rock Band titles and six new Hero titles (including Band Hero and DJ Hero). 2009 also saw some great gaming titles too, such [...]
As a big Final Fantasy fan, I’ve been keeping a close eye on Dissidia: Final Fantasy. Last Friday it was released and I went to my local GAME store and picked up my own copy – the Limited Edition at £39.99 – pricey, but I’m a collector. Before long (after having to wait for my PSP to charge and update firmware) I booted the UMD and began my journey through the world of Dissidia. You may have read my previous [...]
This year, I’ve felt that the good game releases have been very sparse, few titles actually giving me any genuine interest or excitement. However, lately there has been a huge influx of gaming news that have peaked my interest, although sadly most of them wont be released until next year or possibly even later. Anyway, here’s a round up of what I’m looking forward to, and when the current release dates are scheduled for. Let me also point out the [...]
Ever since the start of this year, gaming for me has always been about the next generation, the only games I would play were my Xbox 360. If I wanted to go down memory lane I would usually play Castlevania on my DS or go to the Xbox live arcade and play something like Doom or Sonic 2. Ever since I have finished Uni I have been a bit strapped for cash, not really knowing where the next game is [...]
I would expect that unless you have no interest in gaming whatsoever (in which case, why are you reading this?), you’ve more than likely heard of Final Fantasy, maybe even played some. However, if you haven’t played it, I’d think it could be a bit daunting knowing where to begin – currently with twelve main titles and even more spinoffs, choosing which title to play first could be a difficult decision – would you start from the first title? It [...]
Well, its a game thats been on my mind for some time now – Final Fantasy: Dissidia, Square Enix’s PSP fighter starring a hoarde of characters from the Final Fantasy series. Taking a single hero and villain from every numbered FF title up to FFX, plus a couple of others, Dissidia has an all-star cast spanning two decades of RPG feuding. So for the first time ever, players can pit Cloud against Kefka, Squall against Kuja, or Jecht against Sephiroth. [...]
Being a huge Final Fantasy fan, I naturally have an interest in the upcoming Final Fantasy titles – Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Versus XIII and Final Fantasy Agito XIII – collectively known as Fabula Nova Crystallis or “The New tale of the Crystal” as it translates to English. The set of games do not tie in directly as such, but are more set in the same single universe – assumedly similarly to the “Ivalice Alliance” of Final Fantasy XII, [...]
I have breifly touched on this subject in a previouse post. Just to recap, when it comes to role playing games there are only a few that really get me hooked and i play through to the end. I love rpg games but in my opinion there are not many out there that keep me entertained for long enough to f
Finlay a good game for the PSP!!
