We love our fantasy here at ZAM.com. Stepping into a world that’s not our own is the true purpose of MMOs, isn’t it? So it should come as no surprise to learn that our ever entertaining host of The BFF Report, Mike B. aka Fony, had a hankering to descend into the depths of Hell and explore the fantastical world located within the recently released, action game, Dante’s Inferno.   

A word of warning… this video (and the corresponding video game) are not for the faint of heart, and the review features censored (but still graphic) images of blood, gore, and adult situations. But if you want to check out the latest in fantasy action gaming, make sure you check out Episode 19 of The BFF Report.

Seven years into the life of Final Fantasy XI, the development team at Square Enix decided to try something radically different -- three add-on "scenario expansions" instead of an all-out expansion pack. The first of these mini-expansions, “A Crystalline Prophecy,” was released in early 2009. The majority of reviewers seemed to disapprove of the new add-on, and the playerbase had mixed reactions to the mini expansion.

As we prepare for the release of the second add-on, titled "A Moogle Kupo d’Etat: Evil in Small Doses," we at ZAM decided to take a look back at what worked -- and what didn’t work -- in "A Crystalline Prophecy."
