Considering it was originally a spinoff of Atlus’s Shin Megami Tensei, the Persona series has grown into its own well-established franchise, with the mainline title already in its fifth game. Like its predecessor, The Phantom Thieves has enjoyed widespread popularity since Persona 5 was first released in 2016. Related – Read our Persona 5 Tactica Review You would see them pretty much everywhere, from anime to Japanese stage plays and even collaborations with other videogame series. They’ve become household names with their charming personalities and iconic masks, and even a simple glimpse will definitely steal your heart (in a good way). But the work of a Phantom Thief is never done. In line with the release of Persona 5 Tactica, Joker and the rest of the gang invaded Moon Rabbit Café & Restaurant for a one-of-a-kind cafe collaboration that’s set to unite fans and newcomers alike. Manila played host to…
Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 Review One of the more anticipated video game remakes coming soon is Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. Or, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater as it was just recently announced. Despite its rather straightforward announcement, it did its job spreading the word that one of video games’ most iconic franchises is coming back. While the excruciating wait could get unbearable, Konami has released Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1, which contains the first 3 mainline titles of the Solid series: Solid, Sons of Liberty, and of course, Snake Eater. It’s no secret that Metal Gear Solid 1-3 were amazing games, revolutionary for their time even, but with a Snake Eater remake already in the works that could potentially restart the Metal Gear franchise anew, is it worth revisiting this series of titles that started it all? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ej-I-Qv8UkE Metal Gear Solid As…
Sonic Superstars Review After a romp through a vast (Sonic) Frontier, Sonic is back in a brand new and more traditional adventure, and he’s brought along his friends for the ride. Let’s see how Sonic saves the day along with Tails, Knuckles, and Amy in Sonic Superstars! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsL9pKdJ1A8 He’s back! Dr. Robotnik is up to no good (again) and he has set his eyes on the Northstar Islands, home to a bunch of large animals that he would love to add to his army of Badniks. This time, he’s hired a familiar face to help him round up this collection of large critters. Fan favorite character Fang the Hunter is back and ready to do Dr. Robotnik’s dirty work, for the right price. Helping Fang, albeit reluctantly, is Trip, an inhabitant of Northstar Island who had the rotten luck of running into Fang. In true Sonic fashion, the blue blur…
Fate/Samurai Remnant Review The original Fate/Stay Night anime may have aired way back in 2006 but it had a lasting impact even today thanks to its storytelling and memorable characters. It spawned a massive franchise where numerous anime, games, and novels were released, and the Fate series has endured even further thanks to the memes (People die when they’re killed, right Emiya Shirou?) and waifus. On the other hand, Omega Force’s Musou games are just as legendary. Ever since its Dynasty Warriors game switched from a one-on-one fighting game to a crowd combat hack-and-slash style of gameplay, succeeding games retained the latter mechanic and have become the main series’ signature feature. If you’re a fan of both then you’re in luck as Omega Force is bringing you the best of both worlds with Fate/Samurai Remnant. With so many series getting the Musou treatment, it was only a matter of time…
Final Fantasy XVI has enjoyed success since it launched last month, selling over 3 million copies in just a week despite PS5 exclusivity. While fans of the series have been quite divided over its direction, which went further away from its turn-based roots, one thing that most players agreed on was the quality voice acting of the game. The Final Fantasy XVI English voice cast, in particular, provided stellar performances, prompting many (including us) to play it in its default English setting instead of usually switching it over to Japanese. The Final Fantasy XVI English voice cast captured the essence of these characters perfectly and really elevated the game experience to new heights. Without further ado, let’s meet the Final Fantasy XVI English voice cast!

Resident Evil 4 is considered to be one of the best Resident Evil titles of all time, and the recent release of the Resident Evil 4 Remake further cements that status. Receiving rave reviews across the board from critics and fans alike, Capcom has put out another masterpiece that will surely receive many accolades. Part of the reason why the Resident Evil 4 Remake was well-received by the public is because of the performances of the talented voice actors. Both the English and Japanese voice cast put in some impressive work bringing the characters to life, and while there may have been some controversy over some internet trolls harassing one of the talents, it’s arguably a small blemish compared to the overall success that the cast gave to bringing the Resident Evil 4 Remake to life.

Resident Evil 4 Remake Review If you were a Gamecube owner and Resident Evil fan back in the early 2000s, consider yourself lucky since you got to enjoy not only the vastly improved remake of the first game but also the next mainline entry, Resident Evil 4. Little did everyone know how big of an impact the game would have on the genre, and games in general. The game is celebrated for breathing new life into the franchise. The more action-oriented approach sprinkled with a good amount of horror was a fresh experience for everybody, with features like the 3rd person aiming system that went on to be a major influence in other games. It was widely considered as one of the greatest games of all time, so there was some creeping doubt that a remake could do it justice. While the Resident Evil 2 remake was a shining example…
WWE 2K23 Review While Visual Concept’s WWE 2K22 wasn’t completely a masterpiece, the game really redeemed the franchise from its dismal state a few years back. Thanks to numerous improvements made, it’s no surprise then, that we now have WWE 2K23. Last year’s showcase featured the amazing Rey Mysterio, but this year we really just can’t see anybody in the spotlight. Which just means one thing: JOHN CENA! We’ll be getting the obvious stuff out of the way here, and this year features the Dr. of Thuganomics himself. All that’s left is to see if Visual Concept is able to keep up the momentum of what they have started the year before. Here’s our review of WWE 2K23. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fc819wHw6I The Gang’s (Not) All Here This latest entry’s roster will likely be a mixed bag, just like last year, and your enjoyment of WWE 2K23 will really depend on the eras…
Tales of Symphonia Remastered Review Bandai Namco’s “Tales of…” series came back with a bang with the release of Tales of Arise. Being the latest entry in a long line of games, it wasn’t hard to imagine that newcomers would want to revisit the previous titles. Having played Tales of Destiny and Eternia way back during the PlayStation 1 era, very solid and fun JRPGs in their own right, it was time to try out other entries. Considered a favorite in the series by many, Bandai Namco gives us Tales of Symphonia Remastered. Originally released back in 2003 for the Gamecube and a re-release in 2013 for the PS3, the title went on win the favor of many. With the remaster seemingly taking things and making them better, surely it would be a hit amongst modern gamers. Right? For the record, I have no prior experience with Tales of Symphonia,…

One Piece Odyssey Review When we last left the Straw Hat Pirates in the One Piece Odyssey demo, they’d gotten themselves into quite a predicament. Apart from being stranded on the legendary island of Waford, they’ve also bumped into one of the island’s inhabitants, Lim, in an unfortunate encounter. Luffy and company will need to escape Waford to continue their adventure to find the One Piece, but right now, they’ll need to scour the island for Lim.
