Game Review – Blazblue: Central Fiction
Short Version: It’s fantastic. The story mode delivers in creating a strong and satisfying ending while also creating an awesome fighting game that has some great new characters and improvements to the mechanics that place it above and beyond many fighting games out there. If you care about fighting games...
Game Review – God Eater 2: Rage Burst
Short Version: It’s really good! I’ve never played a God Eater game before, but I still felt it easy to get into it. Initially, it felt impenetrable to me, but the game is really good at slowly acquainting you with the vast amounts of ways to customize yourself for battle....
Game Review – Psycho-Pass: Mandatory Happiness
Short Version: It’s really good! It’s a visual novel, so there really isn’t much in terms of gameplay. However, it’s world and story is engaging and interesting, which left me staying up super late just to see how a chapter would end. I didn’t know anything about Psycho-Pass prior to...
Game Review – Touhou Genso Rondo Bullet Ballet
Short Version: It’s not good. It’s an interesting idea that’s executed poorly. Turning bullet hell shooters into a fighting game is cool to think about, but it ended up being a boring, overly complicated chore that got old very quickly. The music could be better, the story is mediocre at...
Game Review – Gal Gun: Double Peace

DISCLAIMER: I love to play fighting games all the time, and I have reviewed fighting games before. However, that does not mean that I am a competitive player or have any knowledge about the complexities that they are looking for in games like these. I am, without a doubt, a...
Game Review – One Piece: Burning Blood
Short Version: It’s good, but not great. Its pretty much Pokken Tournament with One Piece characters. It contains all the fan service you are expecting out of a One Piece game, but don’t expect anything super complex in terms of fighting. This is very much a game where you can play...
Game Review – Yomawari: Night Alone
Short Version: A simple, but very subtle and profound coming-of-age story. Yomawari: Night Alone is a really good horror game that left a big impression on me, due to its memorable imagery, relatable setting and a simple world full of mystery and adorable creepiness. It’s a really short and easy...
