Weekly wrap-up: After hours edition

Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Image

Another week in gaming has passed us by, and with that week came some good reviews, previews, and editorials. And despite the fact that it’s after hours, I’ve decided to stay up late anyway and bring you, the GameZone faithful, this week’s wrap-up. Check out the latest movies reviews, hands-on coverage, and opinionated pieces right here. Also, Ni no Kuni!
