LTTP: Final Fantasy VI (SNES)
I started Final Fantasy VI at least three times now.

The return to World War II was not an automatic win for me as someone who played through the many World War II first person shooters of the early 2000’s. Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, the original Call of Duty and its subsequent sequels. I was skeptical. I … Read More
