Sequels are tricky affairs and  Square Enix  is no stranger to them now; any seasoned fan still can recall the ill-fated Final Fantasy X-2  or the multiple  Kingdom Hearts  spin-offs. Despite  Final Fantasy XIII ’s strong launch on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 back in 2010, anticipation  for its successor have been less than underwhelming. There may be a number of reasons why  Final Fantasy XIII  may have lost a strong following after its release; many fans often complain about the game’s stubborn linearity, lack of “meaty” gameplay, unlikable cast, and nonsensical storyline. Despite this,  Final Fantasy XIII-2  may be the true redemption the series has called for, even if it’s not necessarily the one fans are clamoring about. Final Fantasy XIII-2  is a direct sequel to  Final Fantasy XIII , taking place three years after the events of the first game. Lightning, the heroine and former protagonist from the previous game, has disappeared entirely and is presumed to be d

Warning: players may experience deja vu. Ignited Games recently launched Rosh Online, which is an updated version of Karos Online. The game is fundamentally the same as before, with some quality-of-life improvements as well as a few new options to set it apart. The game still looks and feels like Shaiya and Last Chaos, providing high quality graphics and detailed environments. Character Creation — Still Boring Karos Online offered six classes: Mystic, Bowmistress, Blader, Paladin, Rogue and Sorceress. Rosh Online adds a new class to the mix: Gunner. Character creation options are the same, limited choices as before, giving players only three face options, four hair style options, and eight hair color choices. Classes are gender-locked, meaning you will only ever see female mystics, bowmistresses, paladins, and sorceresses, or male bladers, rogues, and gunners. Each class has their choice between two specializations. The level requirement for this job change has been r

Alliance of Valiant Arms Overview It seems that ijji is really trying hard to cash in on the MMOFPS craze as Alliance of Valiant Arms (AVA for short), is the third MMOFPS published by ijji. Even though there are already a boat-load of good MMOFPS games on the market, more and more game publishers are putting out their own shooting games. This wouldn’t be a bad thing if these games weren’t all remarkably similar. To be fair, though, even though AVA doesn’t exactly break away from the cookie-cutter tactical MMOFPS mold, it is an extremely polished and graphically impressive game that’s well worth playing. Great Fluid Gameplay Like most modern MMOFPS games, Alliance of Valiant arms looks and plays smoothly. After creating a character players will be asked if they wish to complete the game’s tutorial. Honestly though, anyone who’s ever played an MMOFPS game before won’t need this tutorial, but I recommend going through it anyway – it only takes five minutes and it’s

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 features an attack on the London Underground Modern Warfare 3 is a science fiction RPG. No wait, bear with me. The monstrous and bizarre story of Russian ultranationalists invading the US and then turning their feverish gaze toward Western Europe is essentially a re-reading of the "reds under the beds" sci-fi of the 50s – except here, the aliens actually are Reds, though they operate like nightmarish terrorists and they have the limitless technological armadas that HG Wells imagined for his Martian warlords. Meanwhile, through the game's obsession with weapons, inventories and special powers – sorry, "perks" – it is sometimes looking more toward Final Fantasy than at rival first-person shooters like Halo or Battlefield. Whatever the case, the campaign kicks off immediately after the insanity of MW2. The US is fighting back and winning ground, while the Russian president seeks to re-assert his influence and depose the m

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim ... yes, there are dragons to battle. You were expecting kittens? Every game has a single over-riding requirement for its players. Some demand lightning-fast reflexes and the commitment it takes to master the depth of their controls. Others ask for a willingness to think outside the box or some degree of intelligence for puzzle solving. tes players will need if they hope to succeed in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. But the one asset players will need above all else is time. The reason for this is that Skyrim is one of the most gargantuan undertakings gamers will experience all year. The sheer size of the adventure, both in terms of its environment and in the amount of activities available to the player, is mind-blowing. This shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. The game's developer, Bethesda, has banked a rather lucrative existence on creating open-world RPGs that are filled to bursting with content. As with Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
