The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds Review (3DS)

In 2013, Nintendo unexpectedly announced and released a new Zelda game that used the classic top-down perspective.

And thanks to the innovations and mechanics this title introduced, it's the best Zelda game so far.

Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Review (PS3)

Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch was yet another JRPG that was unlikely to see release in the U.S. and Europe. Its first incarnation in Japan was a turn-based RPG for the DS that came with a large book known as the Wizard's Companion, which contained information needed to progress further in the game. A PS3 version was later made that changed the story and battle system drastically. Fast forward to 2013, and the PS3 version was released in the U.S, with Collector's Edition including the Wizard's Companion despite it being stated that it was the biggest obstacle to localization. However, what's really notable about this title is that it was developed by both Level 5 (the developers of Dragon Quest VIII) and the legendary Studio Ghibli. And the game they produced is an unforgettable experience.

So, Square Enix has finally released Final Fantasy Type-0 HD and bundled the Final Fantasy XV demo with it. Finally, fans will get a chance to play a game that's been in development since around 2006, nearly a decade ago. Of course, being an action RPG (and merely existing after the Final Fantasy XIII era), fans are skeptical as to whether this game will be worth playing. I can definitely say that from what I've played in the demo so far, Final Fantasy XV looks to be very promising. You can check out some of my gameplay footage here.
