Borderlands 2 was fun. I heard great things about Breath of Fire IV. BoF III is one of my favorite rpgs of all time and a lot of people said IV was even better.

The Witness is kind of great.

Playtime seems pretty long, maybe 20-40 hours. Replayability I'm not sure. Probably not great. As far as bringing it on a trip, you'll need a controller to play the game proficiently.

I'm digging Hyper Light Drifter. It's an interdasting hybrid of Super Metroid + Zelda LTTP. Those are probably two of the top five best games of all time, so....

Ninjas are still good in 1.3. Speed in general is enhanced in value because its so important remove the AI's options before he gets a chance to act on them. It's a big trade-off though because a...

Almost all of the encounters have changed to something more challenging. There are a few funny maps where you have to fight like 10 of a class. Lancers have had their speed buffed substantially and...

Yeah, they got rid of level down traps with the mod. Also, funny you mentioned Mustadio. He's actually one of the best characters in 1.3 if you give him two swords and Arm Aim. The AI is so good...

I would highly recommend you get EPSXE and play FFT 1.3. The rebalance makes the weaker classes like Archer and Priest competitive with the original crushers like Monks and Uniques. The mega-OP...

I'm digging Darkest Dungeon. It's a pretty unforgiving roguelike dungeon crawler with a heavy emphasis on gothic themes and the frailty of its heroes.

I'm also digging Terraria since their huge...

FFT 1.3 is a difficulty/rebalance mod for PS1 FF Tactics. It's extremely good and extremely challenging.

Why did everyone love Fallout 3 so much? I played the first one, none of the expansions or anything, and I found it awful. It had good graphics, atmosphere, and story, but pretty much everything...

Is fallout 4 going to have that ridiculous targeting system where you can freeze time and shoot every enemy directly 10 times in the head?

I want to see an amorphous blob of a game that completely mixes the bag every time you start it up. Randomly-generated levels, randomly generated item and mob names and characteristics,...

What pisses me off about the that MKX video is that there's a "fatality practice mode." Back in the good old days of the early SNES and Sega Genesis, the fatalities were mysterious. Video games had...

Got back into Diablo 3 a few days ago. It is massively improved. Still pretty inferior to D2, but they're starting to approach it.

Is there a particular reason why a game would need to be 120 frames per second? I'm pretty sure the human eye cannot discern frame by frame motion at like 20-30. Seems like the only benefit to more...

It's possible that I underrate FF9 because I don't have as strong of a connection to the game itself. A lot of what I like the most about these two composers is how well they are able to create...

One winged angel is one of my least favorite of Uematsu's songs. The FF7 soundtrack is otherwise incredible, of course. FF9 soundtrack is good, but I think FF6/FF7/FF8 are better. If I had to pick...

Probably the most engrossing story of any video game of all time. The music was done by Yasunori Mitsuda, who also did Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross. He's probably an even stronger composer than...

Sleeping dogs was whatever. GTA hong kong combined with an old school beatemup like streets of rage or double dragon with neither the depth/freedom of the former nor the addictive arcade-style fun...

This is a great month for video games:

1) Civilization: Beyond Earth: it's basically a revive of Alpha Centauri (one of the greatest strategy games ever) with the Civ 5 interface.

2) Median...

Well the guitar/bass stuff is just Dance Dance Revolution with your fingers instead of your feet. It's a hand-eye coordination game that doesn't resemble playing actual instruments really at all. ...

I find most roguelikes to be overwhelming, but I found this great one called Cataclysm DDA. It's probably the most realistic portrayal of a zombie apocalypse I've yet to see in a video game. ...

I haven't played D3 in forever. I think if it hasn't happened already, they will improve it dramatically. D2 kind of sucked until the expansion when they made a lot of things better. Hopefully...

I was bored and disillusioned with Diablo III so I found a couple of far superior choices:

1) Median XL: A super extensive mod to Diablo II that changes and or enhances almost every aspect of...
