I also totally hated Phantasy Star 1, which I know many people think of as a classic. This may just be because I have absolutely no patience to grind nowadays, and I may have loved this if I has played it during the same time I enjoyed DW1. Phantasy Star 1 requires way more grinding than DW1. The f...

Building your own party is great, it allows for a far more customizable and replayable game. Playing an all mage party feels like a totally different game than a mixed party. I agree that the MP system in FF1 is fairly bad, though. The GBA remake uses a modern MP system, but also ruins any degree of...

And even with the glitch it still takes FOREVER to level your skills. The whole game's a mess.

DW1 isn't a great game, but it's one of the first console RPGs, it has great monster designs, and it's coherent. I can excuse it for not being very fun because it's a first try. Sequels/more recent RPGs that screw up even the basic elements that DW1 got right deserve more criticism. Final Fantasy 1 ...

It sounds serious now that we've heard about this, but we talked when he submitted the review and it was a joke.

I loved the world of 7th Saga, and I was a big fan of FFX-2's battle system. The least fun I've ever had with an actual, working game (so excluding things like the Terrible Game Review games) is the NES Final Fantasy 2. It takes SO GOD DAMN LONG to get stronger, there's no interesting plot, and I fe...

Gilbert was joking in his review, which makes it kind of funny to learn that there's actually something wrong with the file.

I downloaded it and didn't bother playing it after I saw it was a .exe, but if that's the case I'm taking down the link.

Review: I Made Dis Too

Reposted from HamsterSpeak #20: http://superwalrusland.com/ohr/issue20/imd2/imd2.html Gilbert's original I Made Dis remains one of my favorite OHR games of all time. I had no idea he was working on a sequel all these years later, so when it suddenly hit I was pretty damn pleased. I'm going to write...

In spite of a last minute scramble for content, we managed to pull together a pretty nice issue. We've got reviews of three new games, an exclusive download (only online until November 3rd, so hurry), the conclusion of Covered With Dust, and more.

Hey guys we got almost no feedback on this issue in spite of it having some really damn cool things, so if someone could tell me their thoughts/answer the News section questions I'd really appreciate it.
