[Review] Generation of Chaos: Pandora’s Reflection

When Sting and Idea Factory joined forces, they had the audacity to brand their collaboration as “Super Sting.” It reeks of hubris, but if I can be honest, I’d expect nothing less from Idea Factory. On paper it sounds like a really promising venture as Sting consistently creates unique gameplay options while drudging a bit on the story. Idea Factory is a well known visual novel producer in Japan so pairing a gameplay focused studio with a story driven one [...]

[News] Disgaea 2 is Coming to PSN

The PS2 version of Disgaea 2 is coming to PSN on January 22.  For those not up to date on the Disgaea series, it’s great.  A mix of puzzle and strategy, this tactical RPG is easily one of the best values in gaming with hundreds of hours of gameplay available.  Disgaea 2, while not as good in story, is a much better game than the original and if you’ve skipped it during the PS2 and PSP years, you have one [...]

[Review] Clan of Champions

When NISA announced they would be publishing their first game for Xbox 360 with Clan of Champions, I was genuinely excited.  NISA has long been stubborn in moving to Microsoft’s console and to hear that they would branch out for the first time felt like the company would really be expanding in to new markets. Unfortunately, they then cancelled the Xbox port.  Still, Clan of Champions proves that NISA has an interest in the PC market.  This marks their second [...]

[Review] Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk2

Idea Factory is a company known for making games with good ideas.  Unfortunately, those good ideas are placed in some fairly mediocre titles.  Somehow though, the Hyperdimension Neptunia series has come out to shocking success for the company. It’s because the ideas behind the game are so darn interesting that Neptunia stands heads above their other titles. Not all good ideas however translate into good games, so with the game’s re-release on PSN, I figured it was about time to [...]

[Review] Legasista

Legasista is an odd little dungeon crawler from a creator well-versed in making odd little dungeon crawlers.  System Prisma has been working side by side with NIS on a number of projects for years.  The fruit of their experience has come together in Legasista, a downloadable PS3 dungeon crawler. This being System Prisma’s first real foray on to the PS3, much has to be proven.  Hit the jump to see if the Cladun developer nailed their console debut for this [...]

[News] Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2 Hits PSN August 7th

Set in the world of Gameindustri, you take the role of Nepgear as she battles the evil Arfoire, who has defeated the heroines of the previous game.

[News] New Trailer for Nippon Ichi’s 1st 20th Anniversary Project

The God and Fate Revolution Paradox (aka Kamisama to Unmei Kakumei no Paradox or if you have been practicing, 神様と運命革命のパラドクス) is the new game from Disgaea Team for NIS’s 20th Anniversary Project.  This will be the first of many releases from NIS for this event.  You can see the hot new trailer below, but it’s really just a teaser for the July 19th reveal.  You get your voice actors and characters represented, but I’m not sure it will sway many [...]
