Sony what the hell is this, a handheld that only streams games and spits on the legacy of the great PSP. I’m not really this upset about that but what I do have a gripe with is company’s blatantly selling us garbage. In my opinion streaming games isn’t really worth the price these companies want […]

Final Fantasy 16 Review after 150+ hours.
This review is written from the perspective of someone who values the combat system the most. So I will be focusing mostly on the combat throughout this review however I will also mention a few thing about the world and story.

Game Design Discussion: Shortstop.
