Is Final Fantasy XIV Really That Bad?


REVIEW

Following its release last September, Square Enix's latest entry into the famed Final Fantasy series was met with a decidedly negative response. Now in its fourteenth iteration, a game with Final Fantasy sprawled across the cover is usually indicative of a genre-defining role-playing experience. The series is home to titles that many consider to be the greatest of all time, but recently the response to Square Enix's flagship role-playing game hasn't been what the series has come to expect. The long-awaited Final Fantasy XIII was criticized for being too linear and boring, and the announcement of a second MMORPG bearing the twenty year old credentials didn't exactly set the world on fire. Rightly so, many would assume after looking at early reviews, but is Final Fantasy XIV really that bad?

It Looks Terribly Familiar: Legend of Martial Arts Review


REVIEW

Legend of Martial Arts is Perfect World Entertainment's (PWE) improved version of Q-world, a game exclusively released in Asia several years ago. The result is a cute, colorful and cartoony 3D fantasy MMORPG with a semi-Oriental theme. Legend of Martial Arts is very easy on the eyes with its anime-inspired characters and vivid visuals, a feature common to other games like Luna Online, Flyff, Rose Online and its sister game, Ether Saga Online. With that being said, does Legend of Martial Arts offer something new to be able to stand out in the slew of other cutesy and casual MMORPGs?

Spending A Bad Day In Neverwinter


REVIEW

Previously, we discussed the positive aspects of the Neverwinter Nights series, and the diversity to be found within either title in the franchise. One of the reasons the games are so heavily praised is due to them filling a niche in the gaming market that no other title has attempted to break into, or that many publishers even know exists. If you were to look at this from another perspective though, if no-one else is clamouring to make the next spiritual successor to the Neverwinter Nights franchise and there isn't much of an outcry for these sorts of games, are they worth making at all?
