Resonance of Fate screenshots something something

tri-Ace and Sega’sResonance of Fateis scheduled for a Western release later this year, and it’s a good ol’ fashioned JRPG. you’re able to tell it’s a JRPG because it’s calledResonance of Fate. Still doubt me? Just look at these new screenshots and you’ll be left with little room for argument. When it comes to tri-Ace, I am very skeptical.

Review: Chime

Right off the bat, I’m just going to say it:Chimeis an utterly compelling, aesthetically minimalistic puzzle game that rides the cusp of being entirely fantastic, faltering only at its lack of options.

It’s funny, because I would swear this is a PSN title. There seems to be a split between PSN and XBLA titles....
