Like it or not, technology has become integrated into almost every facet of our lives. Phones are one of the first and last things that we see every day, it’s almost impossible to find a building that doesn’t have at least one computer, and everything is connected to the internet at all times. But what if someone were to be ...

Introduction If you have no idea what PopoloCrois is (and why we’re “returning” to it), you’re forgiven. The first PopoloCrois game (published by Marvelous) was only ever released in North America on PSP in 2005. However, in Japan, it has a much more storied history. A manga series, a novel, and five video games all preceded the series’ debut in ...

Regardless of whether you spent one hour or a hundred hours (or even simply watched a Let’s Play) in The Division, it is hard to deny that it is a game that successfully brought together two very popular genres: stat-heavy RPGs and pseudo-realistic third person shooters. To it’s credit, The Division is a well made game overall. But even the most ...

If there is one lesson that Role Playing Games had to learn the hard way, it’s that a good RPG has to have some kind of endgame content to encourage you to keep playing the game, even if you already got the best loot possible and such. The Division is no different, and to that end, it features multiple endgame ...

Love them or hate them, reboots and spiritual successors are simultaneously the easiest and the hardest way for any movie or game franchise to make money. On the one hand, you already have an established audience (take a look at anything Star Wars related and Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary). On the other hand, this also means that you have an ...

I’ll start by being honest with you – Trails of Cold Steel is the first Legend of Heroes game that I’ve ever played. I know that means that I’ve missed out on a lot of great games, but it didn’t affect my enjoyment of this title at all. Trails of Cold Steel is one of the best RPGs of 2015, and I recommend ...

Following the update to The Division’s Ubisoft Club rewards page that led to some (reasonable) concerns over whether or not The Division will be “pay to win”, Ubisoft’s Community Manager, natchai, stated that “There will be no microtransactions, and definitely no P2W” on Twitter. Normally, this would mean that the case is closed, the mystery is solved, and everyone can go ...

This morning, Nintendo released a brand new Nintendo Direct video focused entirely on Pokémon. In addition to discussing the imminent digital release of Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition on the Nintendo 3DS eShop, a new announcement was made. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmzDL1l3Fag This holiday, we’ll be seeing two brand new entries in the Pokémon series: Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon. The video shows ...

Like most RPGs, The Division has a currency system that lets you get progressively better gear from vendors, offering an alternative to human sacrifices to the Random Number Generator god for good loot. On paper, that sounds fine and dandy in that it guarantees that those who are dedicated to playing the game will be rewarded, even if they are ...

One of the most memorable aspects of Halo: Combat Evolved is the incredibly powerful M6D pistol. Those who beat Halo: CE on Legendary know of its propensity to kill Hunters in a single shot, annihilate Banshees as if they were made of paper, and murder more or less everything that you aim it at. Naturally, it came to be the ...
