World of Final Fantasy Review

Also Available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One (including an enhanced version World of Final Fantasy Maxima)

Two years ago, Final Fantasy released a most interesting game that flew under the radar named World of Final Fantasy. It was announced at E3 2015 in both Sony’s and Square Enix’s show. It was one of the only mentioned of final fantasy, but got overshadowed by Hitman, Just Cause 3, Final Fantasy VII Remake (still not out), Kingdom Hearts 3 (Also not out) and more The fact is what was shown was a cutesy video with chibi characters, and it definitely slipped under the radar. So it actually came out the following year in 2016 and didn’t get much attention. Was it a missed opportunity, or a silent failure? We’ll see.

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain Review

Played on Windows and PlayStation 4
Also available on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Xbox One.

Oh boy, so we come to the last game of the Humble Monthly Bundle of December 2018, and it’s Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. This is a big game, and I feel that it’s impossible to divorce this review from the company who made the game, the man who made it, and the situation surrounding it. In fact, any attempt to do so at this point would not be properly judging Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.

So we tackle the second Early Unlock of the Humble Monthly Bundle for December 2018, and it’s Cities: Skylines. I’m actually thrilled to talk about Cities: Skylines because I picked it up in 2016, and spent over a decent amount of time with it and now have a reason to pick it up again. But is it really that good?

Also available on PlayStation 3, Xbox One, and Xbox 360.

So we begin the Humble Monthly Bundle Reviews for December 2018 with Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes, which is a mouthful, so I’ll probably just call it Ground Zeroes for brevity’s sake. It’s a game from 2014 that was to introduce people to the new Metal Gear Solid 5 system and the brand new Fox Engine. Now it can be found bundled along with Metal Gear Solid 5: Phantom Pain definitive edition. Let’s talk about just the Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes game.

One Piece Pirates Warriors 3 Review

Kinglink
Played on Windows
Also Available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, and Nintendo Switch

When One Piece Pirate Warriors 3 originally released, there was already 8 main Dynasty Warriors games, as well as many offshoots. In addition, there was a number of Samurai Warrior games as well as three Warriors Orochi games by this point. I say this simply to allow the reader to understand the momentum behind One Piece Pirate Warriors 3, and realize that it is yet another Dynasty Warrior game. But is it a good one?

ICEY Review

Kinglink
Played on Windows.
Also Available on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, iOS, Android.

I received ICEY as part of a bundle with the Steam Link. Actually, I bought the Steam Link and got ICEY with it, but I was curious about why it was the game to be featured in the Steam Link Bundle, so I put it in my queue, though near the bottom. Well, it’s time to finally look at ICEY and figure out what’s so special about it.

Headliner Review

Kinglink
Played on Windows
Also Available on Linux and macOS

Headliner caught my attention with a simple tagline “What if you control the national news?” Interesting premise and a question that made me wonder “What if I did control the national news?” Fact-based reporting? No slant? Spread the writings of Thomas Paine’s Common Sense… I could do so much. So what would Headliner allow me to do?

Action Henk Review

Kinglink
Played on Windows
Also Available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Linux, and macOS.

I’ve said this a few times in videos, but I found Action Henk because the image caught my eye. I wanted to see what this game was about based off that, and that’s why I’m here reviewing. That’s probably not the best reason for me to choose a game, but it was something that was worth trying once. Let’s talk about what I found.
