Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes Review

Every once in a while a game comes along that just feels completely out of place in its environment. As soon as I heard that Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes was to be released on the Nintendo Switch, I knew instantly that this would be one of those games. Travis Strikes Again: NMH, in all of its raunchiness and straight-up adults-only dialogue, on the family-oriented Nintendo Switch? It just didn’t make sense. It still doesn’t.

The Internet can be a cesspool of negativity and hateful rhetoric, and  while it's inevitable with politics and religion, it's always disappointing when that creeps into the video game world as well. The latest string of stupidity on the Internet stems from the launch of New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe, a remake of the Wii U game of the same name, with the inclusion of New Super Luigi U and one other important game play mechanic: the ability to play as Toadette / Peachette.

Mutant Year Zero main

Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden Review

Released last December by developer The Bearded Ladies Consulting and publisher Funcom, Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden is a turn-based tactical RPG that utilizes elements of real-time stealth and an intriguing storyline to bring an experience that can only be described as a next-level XCOM. The devs draw this parallel themselves, and with the two so closely linked, one has to wonder if Mutant Year Zero can do enough to set itself apart from its own inspiration.
