Abstract: While traditional role-playing games have their perks, they're often loaded with hours of tedious grinding and dozens of melodramatic cutscenes that take as long to watch as they do to unlock. Half-Minute Hero eschews all that in favor of fast-paced a...
Abstract: When I began reviewing Half-Minute Hero, I tried to describe it to some of the other GamePro editors and failed miserably. The description usually went something like this: "It's an RPG, but it's not long. Well, it is long, but you only have thirty sec...
Abstract: Despite the title, Half-Minute Hero is a full-length game that is anything but short or half-baked. Take a classic, old-school RPG and trim the fat and inject some extra genres and you`ve got this lean, mean, action machine. It`s everything that you li...

Abstract: Games in these genres promise great storylines and eye-popping graphics but also feature tedious and repetitive fighting of monsters or enemies.Half-Minute Hero (HMH), which combines shoot-em-up and tower defence genres, eschews the time factor yet all...
Abstract: Grootse veldslagen, meerdere verhaallijnen, een experience systeem, verzameldrang naar wapens en uitrusting en een held. Wat meer mag je van een role playing game verwachten? Maar wat als dit alles maar dertig seconden duurt? Welkom in de wereld van Ha...
