Tales of Zestiria Review (PS3, PS4, PC)

            Ah, Tales of Zestiria. Practically every recent title in the series, especially this one, has seen some form of controversy or another among the fans. I’ve spent the time up until the American release with nothing but mixed feelings about what I’ve been hearing in regards to this title. Now that I’m about 15 hours into the game, I can confidently say that Tales of Zestiria is one of the best modern titles in the series (except for maybe Graces or Vesperia).

A Look at the Modern Tales of… games

            Many would say that after Tales of Vesperia, Namco’s JRPG series began to decline in quality. With Zestiria just recently released, let’s take a quick look at these games and their flaws.

Batman: Arkham Knight Review (PS4, Xbox One, PC)

I've never really been a superhero fan. But if you were to ask me now which one was my favorite, the answer would undoubtedly be Batman. Over the past several years, Rocksteady rose to fame by developing the critically acclaimed Batman Arkham series. And now, the series has come to an end with Arkham Knight being the grand finale.

My thoughts on Square Enix's recent actions

Square Enix as a whole seems to be listening more closely to its fans lately. When Final Fantasy Type-0 HD was released, it came with an almost sickening camera system with absurd amounts of motion blur. For a while, there was no hope of it being fixed. But on the day Episode Duscae's patch launched, the camera for Type-0 also got patched, addressing the game's biggest issue. And the fact that Episode Duscae, a demo, got patched at all seems to signify that Square wants to make sure the final game turns out well, and that they don't want to repeat their mistakes from Final Fantasy XIII.

Final Fantasy Type-0 HD Review (PS4/Xbox One)

In 2011, Square Enix released a PSP title called "Final Fantasy Type-0". Those who imported it claimed it was one of the few modern titles in the series that could be called great, and others went as far as to call it one of the best Final Fantasy games they ever played. But differing opinions aside, everyone wanted the game to be localized on the PSP or Vita. Several years after its initial release, the West finally got the game... on the PS4 and Xbox One.
