and Square Enix's Ride 2 was not a game I expected to actually enjoy The first reason for that being – it's a racer by Milestone and Square Enix I just don't have a good history there and can be a bit bitter about it Just a bit. But it's also a moto-racer And my ability to[...]

So let's break those down for you in how they are or are not happening. Square Enix has promised that we'll be getting Kingdom Hearts 3, but we haven't heard much about that game since the official announcement back at E3 in 2015 though we did get screenshots recently So that's an almost certain release sometime before the[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Square Enix and PlatinumGames' NieR:Automata is the sort of game that likes to defy expectations Sure, it's a game where you play a silver-haired android girl who throws around giant swords in a hack-and-slash game And sure, the androids are fighting the alien machines for control of earth, But that's underestimating the depth of the game's[...]
