River City: Rival Showdown Review

Just when you thought your girlfriend was safe from the punks in River City, think again. Ricki’s gal has been kidnapped and Kunio must find her in three days. Seriously, Ricki needs to keep a better eye on his girlfriend considering how often this keeps happening.

The Alliance Alive Introduces Its Combat

The Alliance Alive joins up in North America and Europe in just a couple of months. Atlus USA released a new trailer showing a few of its combat aspects.

Detective Pikachu Begins Investigating in March

All right, it’s not an RPG. However, more than enough RPGamers are likely to be interested in the exploits of Detective Pikachu to give its worldwide release a mention

Monster Hunter Stories Review

The franchise faithful will probably still feel at home here, but others may need to decide if they can stomach the guesswork combat system or rote mission structure before committing to this game.

Etrian Odyssey V: Beyond the Myth Review

It’s time to scale the heights of Yggdrasil, mapping everything along the way and surviving whatever nasty critters decide to get territorial. Be prepared for a long but very engaging journey upward. How high will you go?

Ever Oasis Review

In a world where Chaos strives to overcome all life, a plucky water spirit and a wind champion nurture a fragile oasis. This setting might seem an improbable place for toy enthusiasts, but one is nevertheless here. Those are nasty scarabs.

Mercenaries Saga 3: Gray Wolves of War Review

Once again a trip into the depths of the 3DS’s downloadable library reveals something worth experiencing. Unlike its predecessor, this one features its cast being called dogs on a regular basis.

Mercenaries Saga 2: Order of the Silver Eagle Review

Rooting around in the recesses of the 3DS’s downloadable library is not for the faint of heart, but occasionally something worthwhile is hidden there. This little tactical item is rather entertaining to find.

Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia Review

A continent divided in half between those who indulge pleasure centers nonstop and those who ceaselessly strive to root out any signs of weakness was bound to have problems. It should surprise no one that conflict is the means of resolution. Jedah is no fun.

Dragon Sinker Review

Giant dragons appear to like being given human sacrifices to relieve their appetites. Admittedly, this game and the movie Dragon Slayer aren’t a conclusive survey group, but there’s a definite pattern. A merchant, a baker and a revenant maker.

Exstetra Import Review

With all the awesome reviews lately, it would seem like the gaming scene is all hugs and love these days. Leave it to FuRyu to provide the kiss of death in the form of an innocuous little game.

Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King 3DS Review

In the annals of curses inflicted over the years, being turned into a green monster without mental or physical deterioration may not top the all-time list of infamy. King Trode steadfastly refuses to accept any suggestions that his plight is not horrendous, however. Also, Medea is a well-groomed horse.

Dragon Ball Fusions Review

Many faces from the various eras of Dragon Ball appear in this game. Unsurprisingly, the lineup does not include a playable version of Namek’s gargantuan elder Guru. Ginyu Force action!

Etrian Odyssey V Import Review

After four years, the next mainline entry of Atlus’ popular series finally comes out. But how much can really be done with such a entrenched formula?

Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past Review

Once upon a time playing the seventh Dragon Quest required a PlayStation, plus a lot of spare time. Now that the game’s 3DS remake is available outside Japan, at least one of those requirements has been removed. Wholesale slime destruction will result.

Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse Review

Selling your soul to a demon is hard work, especially when that demon thinks humanity is filled with idiots. We all know which almighty demon should be sided with: King Frost for president!

Fire Emblem Fates – Revelation Review

When made to choose between loyalty and lineage, sometimes the best option is to run away, forge a new path, and convince others to join. Either that, or choose to participate in the newest Super Smash Bros. You’d think I’d be sick of hearing “you are the ocean’s grey waves” after all this time, but you’d be wrong.
