Mercy has found a way to fill her time now that she's not going on missions! And apparently that's harassing people in other dimensions. We all need something to keep us busy.

Quick Critique: Mega Man Legacy Collection
In an attempt to justify my having bought not only the Mega Man games for yet another time but a collection of Mega Man games for yet another time, it was on sale. The games are what they are so I won't spend much time drooling over my life with Mega Man. Mega Man is a great game but they were working out a lot so it's kind of unfairly hard in lousy ways but it has heart. Mega Man 2 is one of the greatest video games ever made. Then they j...

Our review this week is for EDF 4.1 and if you give me a jet suit, I will wear it. Skirts and heels be damned!
Quick Critique: Earth Defense Force 4.1
I reviewed one of the earlier EDF games before and you can probably just cut and paste most of that review, because the games are pretty much all the same. Big. Dumb. Explosive. Cheesy B Movie Sci-Fi Fun. Although, 4.1 is laid out a lot better than the previous game. It has much better early missions and objectives a...

Our Mercs What If picture takes a look at what would have become of the hero of Whistleblower if he lost that secretary job. And I suppose I'M that idiot. So thanks for making me feel bad, bonus art.
If you missed the story the first time, make sure you read it or the other illustrated stories in the Mercs gallery on the site!

Let's ring in the new year with a new Mercs illustrated story! Enter a world of corporate intrigue, unethical scientific experiments, and terrible marketing!
Patreon members get the story AND the illustrations at their full size!
2017-01-03 15:27:22 +0000 UTC View PostI really liked the original Witch and Hero for what it was. It's a super simplistic game that has two or three neat ideas and it executes on all of them well in a game that's short and to the point, but that's also priced accordingly. WH2 follows on those same lines with a twist... Witch can now move! You control Hero with the stick and Witch with the buttons, so it's by no means an elegant control scheme, but it serves its purpose. Other than that, it's kind of the same game, but that's okay. T...

Happy New Year, New You, folks! We're ringing in the new year with part 1 of a new batch of Mercs comics with a new team and I'm sure their new client is going to have a new outlook on life. Hey, it's New Year's Eve, not New Year's Steve.
Thanks to all the members that supported the comics last year and have stuck with us as we brave whatever 2017 has coming our way. At least on the Mercs side of things, it's going to be ladies, super science, the super natural, maybe some magic or curses, and...

We end our bonus arts for the year with a commission thanks to the generosity of our Patreon members. It's only right that as she joins the team, Sam gets her own gallery image. But despite her cuteness, she's probably planning on throwing those snowballs at Ruth or something equally mischievous.
Our Patreon members get the image at a larger resolution and WIP sketch from the artist.
The artist for this commission is Grimay and you can visit their site at:
Quick Critique: Shantae Half Genie Hero
I wasn't a Kickstarter backer so I had no skin in the game on this, outside of just buying it. I actually thought their campaign was pretty sleazy. The offerings were overpriced and if your company has been around for over two decades and put out 70 games, if you can't fund your next project, that speaks to some fundamental company mismanagement and you shouldn't be relying on fans to accept the financial risks while you reap the benefits. Bu...

It's tough finding the exact monetary value of sacrifice and a human life, but Mercy is going to work hard to discover that and have one heck of a leg up on gifts exchanges until she hits that number.

Shilling for friend of the site, Lachlan! You may remember him from when he and other friend of the site, DK, put the Mercynaries in Gender Bender DNA Twister Extreme and ensured their places as official Cool People. Lach later worked on another game, Max's Big Bust, and now he has another game in the works, Alluna and Brie and the Tentacle Menace!

Now that all the mawkish thanking and togetherness is gone on both the Canadian and United Statesian side of things, it time to get on to the season of presents and consumption!

I think I have my work schedule figured out to where I can go back to the previous frequency, so the Sins are back to updating on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday AND Mercynaries is updating on Friday too. Crunch time is definitely coming at the office, but I think I have it worked out to at least keep the comics coming. Hoorah!

The Sins are still trying to latch onto the former glory of Sega and Sonic. The Greeds are just not cool with having to be Tails, but as long as you have the loopy feet, you're like 95% of the way to being Sonic, as far as I'm concerned.

Disgaea 4 represents some rather nice steps forward in the series's gameplay but continues D3's huge leaps back in terms of characters and the quality of the writing. Almost the entire cast is completely unlikable, and not in the Disgaea 1 they're likable because they're jerks kind of way. The D4 cast is almost completely made up of one-note characte...
