This dungeon crawler is loaded to the gills with fanservice, but some neat systems can't make up for a forgettable adventure.

The gameplay may be lacking, but the amount of depth that exists plus the fantastic story makes this an entertaining adventure.

It's the console monster hunting game you've been wanting, but with a far bigger emphasis on story and exploration.

Gust's most ambitious game to date may have a few flaws, but is definitely an effort worth commending.

This may be one of the best games that I have had the pleasure of playing in years.

A near-direct port of the handheld release that delivers an enjoyable experience - if you don't mind all the fanservice.
review by Zack Reese on 02 February, 2017
Technical issues aside, this is clearly the best version of the game that does a lot to improve the main complaints of the original release.

Fun MMORPG-style mechanics aside, this game lacks much of the excitement the license is known for.

While it may try one's patience, the game still delivers a meaningful survival horror experience.

Though Compile Heart once again re-uses a lot of assets, there are plenty of new systems in work to warrant a purchase.

Though it presents a valuable entry into a genre Monster Hunter inhabits, Rage Burst doesn't do enough to differentiate itself from its prequel.

An entry that encapsulates the feeling of taking down a mighty Titan while bathing in its blood.

While it can't escape looking like a 5-year old game, this enhanced remake is one hell of a package at a low price.
review by Zack Reese on 04 August, 2016
Compile Heart has taken measures to amend major issues with the plot, but players must first endure some poor design decisions.
review by Zack Reese on 02 August, 2016
Fall in love with a game that bestows upon the player a strong sense of warmth and contentment.

It’s not for everyone, and the action can be overtly simplified at times, but Koei Tecmo crafted an incredibly addictive experience.

While Atelier Sophie makes interesting changes to the dynamic of the series, it does not leave a strong impact.
review by Zack Reese on 07 June, 2016
A strong multiplayer feature buckles under the weight of a middling single player mode.
review by Zack Reese on 11 May, 2016
While this strategy RPG does nothing innovative, its the characters and the story that makes it all worth it.
review by Zack Reese on 26 April, 2016
Despite some setbacks, players need to experience this charming and inventive adventure for themselves.

While Trillion: God of Destruction does an exceptional job in setting up its universe and having you care about the plight of its characters, the very tedious gameplay and combat mechanics left me disappointed.
review by Zack Reese on 07 April, 2016
An easy recommendation for those who watched the anime back in the day and those who have kept up with the series.
review by Zack Reese on 09 March, 2016
While there is still a decent amount of asset recycling going on, the series has never been better in this new console entry for the Neptunia series.
review by Zack Reese on 16 February, 2016
While dragged down by pacing issues and boundary restrictions, this is still the biggest and best the series has ever been.
review by Zack Reese on 30 January, 2016
The great combat system and extremely deep item crafting mechanic translates very well to Sony's handheld.
