MegaTagmension Blanc+Neptune Vs. Zombies PC Review
MegaTagmension Blanc +Neptune Vs. Zombies
Developer:Compile Heart
Publisher Idea Factory International
Release Date: October 3, 2016
ESRB Rating: T
Thank You Idea Factory International for Providing a Review Copy
MegaTagmension Blanc+Neptune Vs. Zombies originally released on the PS Vita back in May. I found the game to be quite enjoyable, but felt it was held back due to the limitations of the PS Vita. Recently, Idea Factory International has released a PC version of this game, which begs the question: does the limitless potential of the PC help negate some of the original game’s flaws? Let’s take a look.
Paper Mario Color Splash Review-Splash Hit or Dud?
Paper Mario Color Splash
Developer: Intelligent Systems
Publisher: Nintendo of America
ESRB Rating: E
Release Date: October 7th, 2016
MSRP:$59.99
Paper Mario: Color Splash has to be one of the most controversial games releasing this year due to the continuation of the formula its predecessor, “Paper Mario: Sticker Star” started. Did this game do enough to improve upon what Sticker Star did?
Sonic Boom Fire and Ice Review-Boom or Bust?
Sonic Boom Fire and Ice
Developer:Sanzaru Games
Publisher:SEGA
ESRB Rating: E
MSRP:$39.99
Thank you SEGA for providing a review copy of this game.
“Sonic Boom: Fire and Ice” is the latest entry in the Sonic the Hedgehog sub series Sonic Boom. It is also the follow up sequel to last year’s standalone game Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal. In this game, Sonic and Friends must get to the bottom of why the area’s weather is going through strange cycles, and it seems like Eggman is behind it all once again.
Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse Review – Another One
ESRB Rating: M
Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse is in a sense a sequel to the original Shin Megami Tensei IV. It’s in a sense because it’s an alternative take on the neutral path in IV where Flynn decides to take on both Lucifer and Merkabah only for a third faction to come into play – the Divine Powers. They declare that everything will destroyed by the next full moon for the sake of humanities salvation. The difference doesn’t stop there either, in this game you don’t play as humanities Liberator Flynn. Instead you play as a hunter apprentice named Nanashi. On the road to becoming a real hunter, you die only to be revived by a demon by the name of Dagda. In exchange foryour life, Dagda wants you to become his Godslayer since Angels and Demons can only seal each other away.
MeiQ: Labyrinth of Death Review: Boredem Does In Fact Kill
ESRB Rating: T
It’s September, meaning the holiday season has begun. In terms of what’s to come to the Vita, one of the first games on the chopping block is a game known as MeiQ: Labyrinth of Death. This game is the second game produced in the Makai Ichiban Kan series with the first being Trillion:God of Destruction. These games share nothing in common outside of key members of the development team. Unlike Trillion, which was a mix between life-simulator and rouge-like, MeiQ is a Dungeon Role Playing Game through and through.
Hatsune Miku Project Diva X: Review – Dancing All Night
ESRB Rating: T
Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X is the latest entry in the Project Diva series – a rhythm game based around music from the phenomena known as Vocaloids and the music their fans produce for them. In this one, Miku aside, our digital singers have lost the ability to sing. It’s up to you to guide Miku to restore the prisms to give them the strength to sing again. After the first prism everyone will be able to sing again, but that’s just the beginning.

Thank you Atlus USA for Providing a Review Copy
The King of Fighters XIV is another entry in the Japanese fighting game franchise by SNK. Does the combination of fast paced action and story driven plot meet the standards of the fighting game genre? Let’s take a look.
( For this review, a PS4 dualshock controller was used to play the game.)
Metroid Prime Federation Force Review

A Review Copy was Not Provided by Nintendo
Metroid Prime Federation force is a new spin off of the critically acclaimed Metroid Prime Trilogy. Taking place after Metroid Prime 3 the Space Pirates are up to no good again and it’s up to the Galactic Federation to find some way to counteract them. Does this controversial game excel at what it does? For this review the game was played on New 3DS and used the Zero Suit Samus amiibo.
Fairy Fencer Advent Dark Force Review
Fairy Fencer Advent Dark Force
Developer: Compile Heart
Publisher: Idea Factory International
ESRB Rating: T
Release Date: July 26, 2016
Thank you Idea Factory International for providing a Review Copy.
Fairy Fencer Advent Dark Force is a remastering of Compile Heart’s PS3 game Fairy Fencer F. The game boasts better visuals and the inclusion of two different story paths for you to experience as you go through your adventure. That being said, even though this is a remastering, I never played the original Fairy Fencer F game on PS3, so I will be treating this review as its own game instead of a remastering.
