REVIEW: Hoshigami DSJune 28th, 2007Jason Glick |
Shouldn’t there be more of these out there?
By “these” I mean Japanese turn based strategy games for the DS. With the system having all but consumed the market in Japan and still burning up the charts over here, you’d think that we’d have seen more of these kinds of games on our shores. I could be wrong, but “Hoshigami: Ruining Blue Earth Remix” is probably the first of its kind to make it to this system in the States. That’s definitely good for the game itself, since it’ll be judged a bit more forgivingly by its target audience. While I can’t say that the game needs every bit of help it’ll get, it’ll certainly tide people over well enough until something better comes along.

REVIEW: Atelier Iris 3 — Grand PhantasmMay 29th, 2007Jason Glick |
Let me level with you, this wasn’t a game that I requested to review. The way I wound up with it mainly went like, “Atelier Iris 3, it’s a sequel to a fantasy RPG series I’ve never played before, huh? Well, I’m not looking at anything else at the moment, so go and send it my way. It can’t be that bad.” Sounds like a recipe for disaster, right? Well much to my surprise, I wound up enjoying this game a lot more than I expected to. The turn based battle system and alchemic item creation system have a lot of depth to them, making them really fun to use. Unfortunately the story, and game world aren’t nearly as deep.

REVIEW: Odin SphereMay 22nd, 2007Jason Glick |
I have to admit, I was really looking forward to tackling this one. The advance buzz indicated that it would probably be the sleeper hit of the summer thanks to its fantastic graphics and intense 2D action. Now, after having sunk many hours of my life into it I can say that the buzz wasn’t quite all that. The game is undeniably beautiful, and the 2D action is intense, but the gameplay isn’t varied enough to avoid repetition if you’re hell-bent on playing through all the game has to offer. I’m not saying you shouldn’t buy the game, as I did have a lot of fun with it, but don’t go in expecting “TEH GREATEST CULT HIT EVAR!!1!”

REVIEW: Etrian OdysseyMay 16th, 2007Nate Aguilera |
Atlus’s Etrian Odyssey takes exploring to another level. The main focus of the game is literally creating your own map on the bottom screen using the stylus. You begin your adventure by making a guild, making your characters, accepting missions, and then exploring and mapping out the dungeons.

Odin Sphere Impressions!May 16th, 2007Jason Glick |
As is the case every summer, when the temperature outside starts rising the flow of quality game releases starts drying up. Unless you really like playing games based on the latest summer movie blockbuster, then expect to wait until August before the quality starts ticking up again. It doesn’t mean that there won’t be any good games released this summer, you’ll just have to look a little harder to find them. That’s what “Odin Sphere” is counting on.
