Final Fantasy Tactics – Best Game Ever Made?
The true best Final Fantasy , the one that most people overlook, doesn’t even have a number. Made during Square’s creative renaissance in the late 90s, Final Fantasy Tactics for the PlayStation marks the highest point of the series as well as Square’s apex in general.
The Debate Over the Final Fantasy Series
What’s your favorite Final Fantasy ? The most common favorites are VI and VII, but opinions vary wildly. You ask someone to rate any game in the series (whether you’re online or off) and you’ll never get two of the same answer.
No one can agree on which Final Fantasy games are good and which ones aren’t, let alone the best and worst. The below (in-character?) rants give you just a sample of the snide comments you’ll see on the internet when you bring up the subject. Everyone has an opinion on every game, especially VII, whether they worship it or despise it. Whatever Final Fantasy you like, people on message boards will line up to tell you your opinion is wrong.
I thought about just using this pic as the whole review. It’s more succinct.
Two Total Failures With a Lot in Common — Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z and Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2
This is a 2014 game in a long-running series many know and appreciate for its punishing but reasonable difficulty. The series has had its share of sequels, spinoffs, remakes, and re-releases. It began in Japan in the late 1980s and continues to churn out new iterations to this day due to its relative popularity. The newest entry in the series is a U.S.-made attempt to revive flagging sales. It is a terrible, dumbed-down, Americanized (in both gameplay and writing), grimdark, QTE-riddled, unenjoyable mess. Notice that this paragraph could apply to either of the games in the title of the article.
Ultra Rapid Fire — Riot, All is Forgiven
I’ve been critical of Riot Games’ League of Legends and its infamously awful fanbase in the past. I keep asking for rad stuff that they don’t deliver—variably due to their incompetence, the implausibility of my demands, and the fact that the only people who read my website anymore are my mom and Brazilian spammers.
One of the requests I’ve made frequently is the addition of new maps and modes. I realize that these are generally difficult to create and most of the users are ungrateful for their addition. (Does anyone even play Dominion or Twisted Treeline anymore? Maybe if they brought back the old, better Twisted Treeline so CrumblingCenturion could make cool videos again.)
And my overwrought responses. Oh hey, it’s time for another one of these articles. I could have sworn this was a video game site.

This terrible game made a lot of "bones" all right.
Cursed Balloons : Casual, But Not Bad
Cursed Balloons is a free browser game in which the player shoots arrows at the rising helium globes at the right of the screen. The object is to hit every balloon of certain colors while avoiding others, and your ammunition is limited in every level. Games like this have quite a long history. The oldest I can think of off the top of my head is Bow and Arrow , a Windows 3.1 title. They have become even more common in recent years as the popularity of in-browser casual games increased. Cursed Balloons is more challenging and aesthetically pleasing than most.
Don’t Step On the White Shark — Not Worthy
Don’t Step On the White Shark is a casual game you can play in your browser. It presents the player with a corridor full of black and white tiles and requires the player to press 1-4 on the keyboard (or use a mouse for slower but more accurate control) to step only on the black tiles, as touching a white tile will result in a game over. There are three modes for slightly different play.
None of the provided screenshots really show what gameplay looks like. Have some cartoon tits, though!
Slot and Dragons : Too Random, But Definitely Enjoyable
Slot and Dragons is a Puzzle Quest kinda deal. Objects appear in lines at random, and it’s your job to make something of them in order to fight your enemies. This game reminds me of Battle Slots , another fantasy-themed slot machine quasi-RPG thing made by a company from my home state.
Galaxy Storm : It’s Just Galaxian
Oh hey, it’s Galaxian . You know, the precursor to the more famous Galaga .
