Final Fantasy is one of the oldest IPs in the industry and over the years its rich JPRG content has been constantly enhanced with each new installment. Whether it was the combat system, the way the characters developed or simply the beautiful story that held everything together in perfect harmony, a FF game always came with the underlined promise of progress, of taking the whole series one step further on the evolutionary ladder. So it comes as a surprise and not a pleasant one to see the game not following its own rules and going for a simpler and accessible approach, especially for a debut on the PS3 and Xbox360 consoles that has been anticipated by fans for so many years. … More

There isn’t much happening on the MMOG market at the moment. There are a few new titles under the consumer’s magnifying glass and the ones released in last two years are still gathering under their banners a decent amount of subscribers. But overall there is nothing out there that has the chance of becoming the next big popular thing. Warhammer Online is a bitter-sweet memory, Aion is as bad as it was hyped and Star Trek Online will probably be assaulted by a large number of trekkies, but has failed so far to impress anyone else. Of course, there is always EVE with its share of fanatic supporters willing to constantly bash any other MMOG while hiding inside a shroud of elitist arguments and constantly turning a blind eye to the game’s large amount of flaws and lack of accessibility. So, with my choices highly limited, I decided to revisit World of Warcraft … More

Don’t take my word for it, look around you: regardless of your field of interest, there are more people tossing around opinions then there are those with original ideas. And that’s not bad, it’s actually quite good. We fought so hard and for so many years for freedom of speech it would be a shame not to exercise it just because any individual with a brain the size of peanut can benefit from it also. The internet boosted our voices to a super power level and now everyone with a keyboard and a decent ISP can share his thoughts with the world. There are no more age, gender or race boundaries we need to overcome in order to be heard. We tore those walls down brick by brick or all at once with a large enough quantity of dynamite and now we are enjoying the infinite possibilities provided by such freedom. Hurray for us! … More

Have you ever dreamed of saving the galaxy… twice? Well now you can, as the highly anticipated sequel of the famous BioWare RPG is finally out. Two years have passed since Commander Shepard has defended the galaxy from the Reaper threat and saved all organic life from annihilation. Not much has happened since. The newly formed human controlled Council is wasting no effort in burying any Reaper related information and shifting the public’s attention towards the artificially created life form known as the Geth. All inhabitance from some human colonies based in the Terminus Systems are mysteriously disappearing and no one has a clue as to why or how. A new alien race, The Collectors, makes its dramatic stage entry. Oh yes, and there is also the small matter of your death which functions as the main catalyst of the whole sequence of events that hold Mass Effect 2 together. … More

King’s Bounty: Armored Princess, the sequel to King’s Bounty: The Legend, is a turn-based strategy game with a few drops of RPG. Developed by the Russian based studio Katauri Interactive and published 1C Company, the English version of game was launched on the 20th of November 2009 and ever since we haven’t stopped playing. Armed with great patience, unbelievable courage and unquestionable skill, we took on the greatest challenge the game had to offer and… failed vigorously just before the last boss. But after two months of constant struggle and bloody battles, after 1.2 million skeletons turned to dust, 398 thousand demons sent back to hell and after 471 spells cast, we now know enough to give you the most highly detailed review possible. … More
