I’ve been playing the Dragon Quest 11 S demo for Nintendo Switch a lot lately. Check out my first impressions of the demo here. But the DQ demo is so long, ten hours long, that I have more thoughts on it! What do I think of Dragon Quest 11 S for the Nintendo Switch so far? Sidenote: check out the Gamescom Dragon Quest S video below for a look at the game, even the awesome 2D mode! I have eight…

Astral Chain is coming out for the Nintendo Switch this Friday! A launch trailer for the game was released yesterday from Nintendo UK. Check it out below and then please come back for some thoughts about the game. The newest trailer for Astral Chain puts the focus on the game’s action and its story. The more I see of this game, the more it looks like an action rpg on the level of a Final Fantasy or Xenoblade. The graphics,…

Remedy has created a number of fantastic titles that don’t necessarily conform to the norm for story and game play. Think of great experiences like Alan Wake, Quantum Break, and now this year, Control. Control follows the quest of protagonist Jesse Faden, who enter the Federal Bureau of Control in search of her brother – once you step through the doors of this seemingly invisible building, things go from somewhat weird, to done right wacky. And for the most part,…

GamesReviews.com has previously reviewed Mutant Road Zero: Road to Eden for the Xbox One. Please check out that review! However the game has now arrived on the Nintendo Switch and I am taking a look at that version. How is Mutant Road Zero: Road to Eden on the Switch? I wasn’t sure if I liked Mutant Road Zero at first. I haven’t played a lot of games like it. I’ve heard of XCom and I played a little bit of…

I try hard to keep this column positive. I like to talk about stuff that I love. But sometimes, I just have to vent. I love Nintendo. I love some many of their games, especially Animal Crossing. But the truth is that their online service isn’t very good! Lets talk about why. I don’t know how anyone else at GamesReviews.com feels about Nintendo Switch online service. All I know is how disappointed I am in it. The following is my…

A demo for Dragon Quest 11 S Definitive Edition was released today! You can download it now on the NA, EU, and JP eshops. I haven’t finished the demo yet, but I wanted to talk about what I’ve played so far. How is Dragon Quest 11 on the Nintendo Switch? There is a demo out for Dragon Quest 11 S Definitive Edition right now on the Nintendo Switch eshops! This really made my day. I’m a huge Dragon Quest fan…

Remnant: From the Ashes simultaneously feels like a brand new mix of genres and a familiar title reminiscent of gaming days gone by. By themselves, the third-person combat, dungeon-crawling looting and randomly-generated playthroughs are all very comfortable and well-used elements of action-adventure games but the manner in which Gunfire Games has combined them provides an overall experience unlike anything I have played before. That being said, let’s take a deeper look into Remnant: From the Ashes!

Nintendo had their Indie World Showcase video today. You can check it out below and please come back for some thoughts from me about the showcase. The Indie World Showcase for 8.19.2019 was just ok. I suppose my expectations were too high. I think my expectations are always too high about all of these Directs, Indie or otherwise. So I was expecting some pretty big surprises and we didn’t get that. Ori and the Blind Forest wasn’t a big surprise…

Diablo and other overhead dungeon crawlers have their fans, especially on PC. I enjoyed Diablo on the Nintendo Switch a lot, though generally I’m more of a turn-based rpg fan. That said, when I heard that Pillars of Eternity: Complete Edition coming to the Switch, I was definitely interested in checking the game out. It looked very Diablo like. So is it like Diablo? Is it a fun game? Should you check it out for Nintendo Switch? Here is my…

Need for Speed: Heat was revealed today for the Playstation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Check out the reveal trailer below. Need for Speed is an arcade racer, much like Burnout. I prefer Burnout but Need for Speed is pretty cool too. I’m glad to see arcade racers like this are still around. I do wish it was coming to the Nintendo Switch though. That said, Need for Speed Heat’s reveal trailer didn’t announce a release date nor did it…
