Robert’s Pick: Both Valkyrie Drive: Bhikkhuni and Cave Story+ are tempting titles, but ones I have played on other systems. Seeking a new experience, my pick this week is God Wars: Future Past. With a storyline that incorporates ancient Japanese folklore, turn-based tactics with characters capable or learning hundreds of skill moves, and creature design from Sawaki Takeyasu, a veteran of Devil May Cry and Okami, God Wars has undeniable potential.
