Sadly, when one googles “Apprentice”, they are not presented with a great video game. Well, if I had my way, googling anything would yield a great video game. But no, in this case you would find some TV show about a rich narcissist who yells at people who aren’t rich because if he feels their [...]
Odin Sphere defies all logic. Sure, we still see 2D games on the DS, but this is different. This is a full budget PS2 game with high-res graphics and flawless animation.

In other, less important news, a Nights sequel has been revealed by Swedish Magazine Game Reactor. No confirmation from Sega yet. Given Sega’s recent Wii support, I humbly speculate it will come out for Wii. Maybe someone who knows Swedish can shed more light on this.

One Life Left or OLL is a gaming podcast actually worth listening to. No, really. It’s an hour-long British public radio program filled with subtle wit and regular jabs at gaming and the games industry. What sets it apart from countless other podcasts is the paid talent and recurring features. The [...]
To tie in with the recent FF6 release, Player One Podcast has an interview with FF6’s translator, Ted Woolsey. The interview goes in depth and examines every quirk of the old SNES translation. Did you know he had only 30 days to do it and the dialog was all out of context? [...]
