Why I can’t review Martha is Dead

I don’t believe topics should be ignored in games, but I do believe that certain issues need to be handled delicately; things like mental illness, sexual assault, and war are not topics to be taken lightly. LKA is, to me, best known for approaching some very sensitive topics in The…

Google/Nintendo/Nintendo Wii U/Street View/Wii U/Wii U Street View

For the longest time I’ve been saying that my main issue with Nintendo’s consoles has been how focused they are on games, to the exclusion of other forms of entertainment. Yes it’s good that Nintendo is committed to games with its consoles, but Sony and Microsoft have both shown us…
