White Knight Chronicles story trailer - (USA)
From Tokyo Game Show in 2007 until now, White Knight Chronicles has been a small blip on the radar of all the major games being released. As Level 5 has talked more about the game, interest levels have increased. Today, they released a trailer that highlights a bit of the storyline for this new, unique RPG experience. White Knight Chronicles may not have a release until Winter of 09, but it has easily become another reason to own a Playstation 3 if you are a fan of RPGs. The trailer is fi

Inq. of the Week: The Most Wonderful Time of the Year - (USA)
Last Week’s Poll Last week, we asked about what non-RPG content you’d like to see here . A strong pluarality of you want to see more about board games , which is fine with me, since I go off and play board games every week (and occasionally design them). Video games were second, which thanks to MDoggie , we have been trying to get more of here. Overall, you wanted more games, which makes sense, except there was no love for poker, so consider it gone! The mysterious “Other” option somehow

When I die…. - (USA)
When I die, I don’t want my last thought to be, “Why oh WHY didn’t I grind out another thousand AAs when I had the chance?” Etha, 67 Druid, 191d 3h played Tipa, 71 Rogue, 254d 12h played Brita, 75 Cleric, 181d 8h played Tipa, 68 Ranger, 9d 1h played Those aren’t even all my EverQuest characters. Six hundred and thirty five full days playing just across those characters. I could add my 65 mage or 58 shadow knight to that. At eight hours a day, that would be five and a quarter years .

Another Facebook RPG Controversy - (USA)
It’s a story that is likely familiar to readers of this site. An artist discovers his work being used in a Facebook-based RPG game and, after alerting various communities, other works are discovered and a storm of controversy is created. It happened back in February with the RPG game Hammerfall where many works from the deviantArt community were found to be used in the game without permission. The game eventually, after much controversy and a protracted public battle, removed the works in qu

Will Visual Novels Ever Escape Obscurity? - (USA)
I am probably treading on the outskirts of the gaming homeland by attempting this topic, and perhaps even overstepping my bounds, but I cannot help myself. It all started with the recent release of Chrono Trigger for the DS. With that came this past week’s 1up Retronauts podcast. With that came a renewed ambition to play Square Enix’s delightfully obscure Chrono Trigger semi-sequel, Radical Dreamers. Radical Dreamers is a game that, if you describe it as a sequel to one of the finest RPGs e

Gaming on the Cheap - (USA)
Gaming can be one of the least expensive hobbies you have. A movie is close to $10 these days. For the cost of two movies for yourself and five friends, you could buy one of the most expensive RPGs out there (the D&D 4E core books) at full retail price , and have far more than a few hours of alleged entertainment. A new videogame is $40-50. Unlike the CRPGs of the late 90s, most of today’s games can be completed in 20 hours or so, and some of them require a thousand dollars w

"FABLE II": EXISTENTIALISM AND XBOX - (USA)
BRETT MCCALLON | AT PLAY | November 23rd 2008 Most video games don't involve morally complicated choices with real consequences. But this is starting to change, writes Brett McCallon ... Special to MORE INTELLIGENT LIFE A few months ago, this column took Roger Ebert to task for his assertion that video games could never reach the status of "high art". The film critic argued that because players essentially control their game experience, the video game auteur is secondary. But the fact

BLEACH The 3rd Phantom: Hands-on impressions - (USA)
One of the two DS titles on show at the SEGA Summer Sizzler was the upcoming Western version of BLEACH The 3 rd Phantom . Now some of you might have to bear with me on this, because I know bugger all about BLEACH - something that two of the SEGA reps told me to resolve post-haste, as they jabbered on about some of the anime’s storylines. Well I did listen to them and have now seen three whole episodes of the anime (woo hoo!). While that might not be enough to be considered an expert on

Cons: General path finding issues, and touchy control scheme Verdict: Buy this if you like the classic Metroid or Castlevania gameplay When you look back at the annals of gaming history, an era that is rarely explored is the time where the Aztecs where at the peak of their power in Central America.

Drow vs Mind Flayer Judging Panel part 1 - (USA)
I just got back from a few days in the mountains where I spent some time recharging my batteries. Wow, I feel a lot better, but I now realize how much work I have to get done before I have to head off to Gencon, and then my beautiful wife and I plan to hit the road on our motorcycles and take in some of the lovely views around the U.S. countryside at the end of the month. I'm going to be VERY busy the next week or so!! As is often the case, you come back from vacation with all kinds of expectat

Giving Thanks. To Stuff. And RPGs. - (USA)
I’m thankful for a country that finally participates in their government again. I’m thankful for my job and my new apartment. I’m thankful for the money I’m blowing on more video games. And I’m thankful for Chrono Trigger DS. So let me get that non-spoiler first impression of Chrono Trigger DS out of the way. Zero spoilers will be listed. Ahem: OMGZ I can’t believe I’m playing this game again I’ve played it over 30 times and I’m back in the game all over. Oh look there’s the carnival, t

Just for fun: “HRmageddon” - (USA)
Test out your backstabbing skills in HRmageddon We recently came across a new game online that is so fun that you should already be considering banning it… or taking a secret 10 minute break to give it a try. Maybe both. It all depends on what kind of administrator you are. The game is called HRmageddon , and it’s a free Flash game that can be played spontaneously through your browser (no downloading required). All you have to do is point and click to command a team of office workers

XSEED: How An 11-Man Firm Plants Japanese Hits In US Soil - (USA)
Jimmy Soga was not a hardcore gamer when he joined US publisher XSEED three years ago — and unlike his ten compatriots at the tiny company, he has never worked for Square Enix USA. But when he got back to his Los Angeles home after a stint as a Japanese interpreter for Tokyo Disneyland, he knew that he wanted to help build world-class entertainment; and was given the chance right here in sunny California. But really, that’s what XSEED is all about — finding hit Japanese products with Western

Never again will I play seemingly embarrassing games in public - (USA)
View Poll It’s 1:43 AM here in Japan and I cannot sleep for the life of me at all so I will tell an experience I had in the community room here in the dorms. Never again will I play Idolm@ster there. I really didn’t want to be stuck in my room playing a game when I could just play it on the community room TV, but obviously I seem to just get weird comments and faces. I really got the same kinds of comments when I bought Princess Maker 5 on the PSP. For the first time in my life it really felt l
