Persona 3 Reload came out on Friday and I’ve been playing it over the weekend. Here are my first impressions of the game. Persona 3 Reload is fantastic so far. The story is pretty intriguing: there is a mysterious hour called The Dark Hour that starts at midnight. During that time, most people turn into coffins and monsters roam the land. Also a tower pops up where normally there’s a school. A group called S.E.E.S. combats the monsters and wants…

Last night, a demo for Monster Hunter Rise for the Nintendo Switch came out. I have some thoughts on it. Full disclosure: I’ve never been much of a Monster Hunter fan. I’ve tried previous demos for the series and never could get into the games. I wanted to like them but they just didn’t connect with me. So why did I try the Monster Hunter Rise demo? As always I was curious. Would this be the Monster Hunter that I…

There are some really cool new features to the system though. First of all, there are now ‘cards’…

BlockQuest Maker’s mobile roots show in its console versions. From the way you choose new levels, to the way you acquire and spend the game’s currency, vote on levels and more — it…
