Dragon Quest XI S: Definitive Edition (Switch 2) Review - Great Game, Small Upgrade (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Square Enix has been aggressive in their adaptation of the Nintendo Switch 2. Not only are new games coming to the system in droves, but a huge roster of their older titles are hitting the Switch 2 as well. For many of these games, the Switch 2 is their first chance to really shine on a Nintendo console. Dragon Quest XI S is a little different. We’ve seen this game in all its glory on the original Switch. So what’s different about the Switch 2 version? Not a whole lot, as it turns out. If you’ve
Marvel's Wolverine Review - Mutant Murder Machine (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Wolverine is an incredible character with a rich history all across Marvel’s comics, movies, TV shows, and games. Yet, for much of that same history, fans have been forced to imagine, to speculate. He’s got those wicked razor-sharp claws, but when do you really see him let loose? Wolverine’s action scenes have always been muted and restrained. His cuts are clean, or carefully edited to spare us the bloody details. Even the comics are rarely allowed to display his dark work without any kind of ce
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (Switch 2) Review - New Look, Same Great RPG (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 was my first foray into the gigantic JRPG series from Monolith Soft. It’s a colossal game crammed with, perhaps, too many ideas for its own good. If you found yourself overwhelmed by the original release, then I have terrible news: the Switch 2 edition has even more content included. The visuals have gotten cleaned up, Pyra and Mythra have new outfits, and the cutscenes are improved, but yeah. This game is somehow even bigger than it was before, which is a preposterous bar
Beast of Reincarnation Review - A Beautiful Struggle (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This game is gorgeous. There are tons of weird little systems to dig into, the plot is melancholy and weird, and the combat is delightfully dense. Yet somehow, Beast of Reincarnation feels like it’s missing something. Maybe an emotionless protagonist is too hard to relate to. Or maybe the story is all crumbs and no bread. Regardless, I had a great time with this game, but it always felt like I was chasing something. An experience forever around the nearest corner, never to connect with my graspi
Disgaea Mayhem Review - Incredible Combat, Surprisingly Short Adventure (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I love Musou games and I love Disgaea. To that end, Disgaea Mayhem feels like it was made for me specifically. These are two great tastes that go so great together, it’s wild that we took this long to get here. The resulting fusion is a fantastic time, albeit a weirdly short one. The action is intense, the character models look amazing, and every weapon feels unique. And yet, if you’re a Disgaea fan of any caliber, you might find this an unsatisfying experience. You play as N.A., a mercenary sum
