Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles review

The story of Ramza Beoulve is presented to you as a historical accord - an account of a tale recorded by one historian and told to you by another. It's subjective, an interpretation of loose facts collected by an archivist with a notable bias: to celebrate the achievements of your protagonist, a man whose influences and inspirations have been concealed by the church. As such, different readings of this story... Read more

Pokémon Legends Z-A is essentially an action game, but might not be a particularly great one

Revisiting Pokémon Legends: Arceus before this preview of its sort-of-sequel, Pokémon Legends: Z-A, I couldn't help but be struck by its almost singular eeriness. Legends: Arceus is deathly quiet, thanks in part to the total lack of voice acting - a long-running Pokémon quirk continued again here in Z-A, even in the lengthy cutscene we were shown at the start of the preview - but also, more intentionally and more...
