Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising is the prequel to the upcoming Eiyuden Chronicle Hundred Heroes. The successor to the Suikoden. Still with me? This is a title that combines Beat em Up action with the fantasy elements and story telling of a Final Fantasy RPG.

Creating a unique RPG that could appeal to players who both like a character driven narrative but don't necessarily want slower paced action RPG's. The problem occurs when you have a design that relies on repetitive elements and elongated quest times to help pad out an overall play time that might be too much for many.

Paradise Killer is a first person detective game that combines strong writing with a wacky world. At first glance it might appear to be very over the top and ridiculous and you would be right with that assumption. But even with its very anime style of story telling and visual art style there is a very deep detective style game here that could call out to games like Ace Attorney. However, it might also rub those people the wrong way with its traversal and convoluted clues.
