Game Reviews

Record of Agarest War arrived at my door in an inauspicious, unmarked brown box. I’d hoped to purchase this particular game since it contains a mousepad with protruding breasts/wrist-rest and a pillowcase featuring a yearning anime babe, and thus would provide an amusing anecdote worthy of a review intro. Instead, I accepted the innocuous parcel from the UPS deliveryman. The box promised guilty pleasures, depicting anime ladies struggling to eat a huge sausage or an ice cream cone only to have white goo melt all over her hands and face. While the game itself isn’t as filthy as the box promises, it does offer a familiar and numerically thick tactical RPG that some will enjoy. However, most won’t find any pleasure in Agarest – guilty or otherwise
