So when word reached me that they were going to be contributing to the design and animation of a video game, I was pretty stoked. It took me a lot longer than I would have liked to get my hands on a copy and finally play it but once I did, I enjoyed it immensely. Now, Ni No Kuni: Wrath o...[Read More]
Collection of Mana (Switch) Review
The Mana series, known as Seiken Densetsu in Japan, is unique in gaming. Even the way the series started is a tale of gaming history where an attempt to make a game in which the combat happened on the same screen as exploration ended up creating not one but multiple beloved games.

My Journey with Kingdom Hearts
Back in 2004, my blossoming and eager young mind was bombarded by the things that happen to a boy of that age. I bought a PS2 with some birthday money.
