If you’ve been missing out on Pillars of Eternity, be it because you don’t own any of the platforms it’s been on in the last few years or for simply not knowing about it, now’s your best chance to get into one of Obsidian’s best games ever.
Wolfenstein: Youngblood misses what made the modern Wolfenstein games so great by introducing convoluted and wholly unnecessary gameplay mechanics that get in the way of the action.
If you’ve been looking for a good excuse to jump back into Mutant Year Zero, you’re in luck.
This technically inferior version of the game is only recommended to those whose only means of playing games is the Switch or that are desperate to have it on the go.
Since Nintendo refuses to make a new version of their fan-favorite series, it’s up to third party developers like Area 35 to deliver the goods.
If it looks like Contra, plays like Contra, and smells like Contra, it’s probably Contra, right? Well…
Don’t try to hurry things along, or you’re very likely to fail.
That banana. Follow it.
