Eiyuden Chronicle Review (PS5, 2024)
A solid, classic JRPG that unfortunately fails to live up to its potential.
Persona 3 Reload Review (PS5, 2024)
Videogame remakes are stupid. Publishers always have games remade that were already great to begin with and didn't necessarily need the treatment, usually missing the point entirely in the process. Think of how the Resident Evil 4 Remake plays nothing like the original, or how the Final Fantasy VII remake fails to reproduce what made the original stand out. As such I avoid these kind of releases in most cases. The remake of Persona 3 is an exception because this is a game I always wanted to see improved on.
Tiger-Heli Review (AC, 1985)
A quick look at Toaplan's first classic shooting game.
Darius MD Review (MD, 2019)
My impressions on the original Genesis / Mega Drive Mini release and its later Extra Version arrange and upgrade.
Salamander & Life Force Review (Arcade, 1986/1987)
Gradius' neglected brother also has historic value. In it's very own kind of way.
Gradius (Arcade, 1985) Review
Revisiting a classic of videogame history.
Irem Collection Volume 1 (PS5, 2023) Impressions
Just my two cents on this collection because it seemed to be getting a lot of bad feedback.
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Demo (PS5, 2024) Impressions
A short review of the game's demo.
R-Type Final 3 Evolved (PS5, 2023) Review
Despite its hiatus of almost two decades R-Type managed to make its comeback with a surprisingly solid game.
Palworld's Monster Designs are Fine
The game might be an obvious cash grab, but the monster designs are more than cheap Pokémon rip offs.
