The Travel Log: Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn (Part 1) Hands On Preview

Hesitant about FF XIV? Understandable, but you may be surprised....

It's unprecedented for an MMORPG to get a second curtain call, but that's exactly what's happening with Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. It's an almost completely rebuilt version of the disastrous original that is going to get a second chance at life next month. After playing a good amount of the Phase 3 beta, I’m ready to believe that the game could right all of the wrongs of its 2010 release.

Time and Eternity Review

A tale of princesses and pervs, eternally retold.

In the last couple of years I’ve had to realize that I’m getting older, and as people get older their tastes gradually change. Time and Eternity is a Japanese-developed RPG that I likely would have loved when I was younger. In fact, I kind of did, as it has a lot of elements that remind me of the PlayStation 1 game Thousand Arms. With its emphasis on hand-drawn graphics and heavily anime inspired themes, Time and Eternity will likely appeal to a lot of people. It just may be that I’m no longer one of them.
