Devil May Cry 5 has been out for quite a few weeks now, and by now there's been enough time for most players to complete the story and start on some of the higher difficulties.With that in mind, I requested a few of my friends, ZeroAsher (Sam) and AShadowLink (Matt), join me for a discussion about...
I make no secret of the fact that Ubisoft and I have an on-again, off-again relationship. Every now and then they create a game like Assassin's Creed: Origins, that I can easily sink 50+ hours into without thinking -- sure, it may have its flaws, but there's clearly a level of love and care imbued...
Welcome back to the Kingdom Hearts Primer. This time, we've moved on to Chain of Memories.Thanks again to AtRiley for allowing us to use his cut for our purposes.There's not much to say about the overall story yet, because even in a story that's largely build-up to Kingdom Hearts 2, most of the...
At long last, we have arrived at the first finale of our Kingdom Hearts Primer.It's a shame that Gamer's Little Playground had to change the music in the end for copyright reasons, because that finale had me bawling as a child.There's not much more that I can add to our commentary on this episode....
And now, the most famous scene in the entire franchise:But enough about that, let's talk about Kairi.A lot of plot twists occur at this moment in the story, but one of these reveal is that Kairi has been with Sora this entire time, locked within the confines of his heart. And now that she's...
Welcome back to the main plot.I know we've spoken about the big twist well before it came into play here, but I still think it's a really great moment. The big reveal that Sora was *never* supposed to be the hero. His status as a keyblade bearer, and his numerous successes, can be attributed to a...
And now, back to plot!Sora and Riku serve as very good foils for each other. Both are essentially after the same thing. All they want to do is rescue Kairi and go off on awesome adventurers with cool people.It's fairly typical for this type of story, but it works. Their voice actors deliver solid...
Today, we arrive at the best world in the game:This is another one of those episodes where he just kinda have some fun with it, because not much plot is going on.But it does have some cool moments, like the touture chamber and manor boss fights. The former of which is probably my favorite boss in...
This time, we go Under the Sea in Atlantica.I don't have much to say about this level, surprisingly enough.There some interesting parallels between Ariel's desire to explore other worlds and the same desire that started Sora, Riku, and Kairi's original journey. Even better, the writers saw fit to...
Ready to enter the bowels and intestines of a giant whale.......Yeah, me neither.Sam and I make fun of Riku a lot, but I like his character a lot. As it goes on, he does progress and becomes one of the more interesting characters in the series. We'll see it later on as we move into Chain of...
