Drakengard 3//First impressions

You know the feeling you get when it seems like you have got nothing to play eventhough your backlog thinks otherwise but then you stumble upon something that makes you excited again? That's Drakengard 3 for you. The moment the previews for this title emerged I immediately knew I wanted it. There are several reasons …

Wishlisting #christmas

https://twitter.com/BozenaGlow/status/537493711551086592 I have always been a wee bit obsessed with all sorts of lists especially wishlisting hence th'day I've decided to come up with what I personally would wish to put my hands on. Some of it might seem like an unattainable dream since I usuallly seem to be getting infatuated with titles exclusive to …

GOTY 2014?

It's almost that time of year already, isn't it? I think November makes it safe to begin the game of the year chats (& the christmas wishlisting). My annual picks are usually rather questionable because it is always either something that is a relaunch/remaster/remake so technically it should not count or something that was released …

A beautiful tale about nothing in particular #Tales of Xillia

I believe last time I spoke about this title was months ago when I was not too far into the game. I remember liking it but wishing it would have been more exciting ... . Fast forward 4 months, and I have made a good chunk of progress but I swear it feels like the …

On Henry #SilentHill

It's ok ... it's just a dream. If there's anything other than undeafeatable ghosts Silent Hill 4: The Room is receiving the most negative feedback on it is the main protagonist Henry Townshend. A soft-spoken introverted tenant who clearly does not stand out. Very little there is to know about him at the very first …

Why level design is what matters

As it's been mentioned before exploring is probably my top favourite thing to do in a video game. Therefore design or style direction is crucial. It's something I could talk about for days. It's what I notice first and pay the most attention to in my titles. And that involves both the outdoor backgrounds, landscapes, …

A Gamer Grill ft. @gunbladeproxy01@BradBraddington

This month I thought of doing something a little bit different and let the fellow gamers do the talking. Today's questionnaire's featuring @BradBraddington & @gunbladeproxy01. Prologue. What was you first memorable gaming experience? @BradBraddington My first gaming experience would be ... When I was about 6 years old my sister was baby sitting me and …

The notes. #September

This month has delivered a good handful of interesting news and updates so far including my highly anticipated releases. Persona 5 being at the very top of my list has finally got a proper trailer featuring possibly the main protagonist. God Eater 2 Rage Burst has been announced for the PS4 as well as Vita …

Plot or gameplay?

I often find myself wondering if I enjoy video games for the right reasons mainly because most of the time if not always I tend to focus only on the way a game is designed, what the sound is like or who the characters are and why they are who they are. If I enjoy …

Tales of Xillia & Silent Hill:Downpour impressions

Tales of Xillia This one has been my introduction to the 'tales of' series for a few weeks now. I haven't really felt head over heels with it eventhough I believe I'm well over half way into it and there's plenty of outstanding aspects of the game. Combat and interface/design are probably my favourite features. …

The notes. #August

That's no moon. It's a #supermoon! Tomorrow's full moon: 14% closer to Earth & 30% brighter http://t.co/GnuRamoFTC pic.twitter.com/ZgywPHMtYA — NASA (@NASA) August 9, 2014 Looking forward to that. Sadly there's not been any major gaming this month ... yet. As usual my inability to stick to one title at a time is here to blame. …

The Next New-in #rpgmenu

It seems like I'm awfully late to the party but I never knew the sequel to one of my favourite PSP releases is out and has been for a while. The good: it is out for both PSP & PS3 & possibly PC in the future. The bad: The likelihood of me ever experiencing it …
