Steins;Gate (PSVita)


Categories: [blog]

Wow. If you've seen the anime you probably know what I'm talking about, I haven't, I've only played this game. I'm not sure how worthwhile it is to play the game after watching the anime.

It's another time-travel-based visual novel (surely we don't need more of them? Oh yes, we certainly do). So a...

Dangan Ronpa 2 (PS Vita)


Categories: [blog]

More of the same as Dangan Ronpa 1 - which means crazy characters and plot twists. I'm not sure which I like more, though the mini games (during class trials) of the second are a bit more annoying, and I had a couple of times when I couldn't really work out what they wanted me to use, even though I...
