Video Game Review: Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster

Paired with that strong narrative is the excellent sphere grid leveling system. Here, each character begins at a specific point on a massive grid surrounded by class-appropriate nodes. These can then be activated by moving to an adjacent point and using the correct sphere (power spheres for strength and hit point bonuses, ability spheres for new skills and so on). It holds up incredibly well in creating a feeling of perpetual advancement, and there’s a fair amount of freedom for customization once you move past the early stages of development.

Video Game Review: One Piece: Romance Dawn

/ Uma Smith, Video Game Reviews

Surprisingly enough, this Nintendo 3DS title is not presented in 3D. But it shouldn’t be that big of a deal, right? Well, the cut scenes themselves consist of static images with text appearing on screen. Here, they drag on for a very long time and can be painful when there’s nothing exciting or enjoyable to watch. Then when you jump straight into the gameplay, you’ll quickly notice the grainy texture quality and bland environments. The graphics wouldn’t be that bad if the 3D effects were to kick in, but once you remove that it’s pretty much downhill from here.
