@SigourneyBeaver It just takes a while for the wheel to be fully turned and that is why steering can feel like it's lagging. Again, you can get around this by enabling motion and using your controller as a steering wheel. They obviously just brought the controls over from their mobile games.
Steering in this game is digital, even with the analogue stick. The longer you hold the left or right direction buttons or the analogue stick, the sharper you turn. The only thing the analogue stick seems to do is make the turning faster, but if you hold the analogue stick slightly in one direction, you will start steering sharper and sharper until you let go.
The only way to get proper steering is to enable motion and use the controller as a steering wheel. The game is so much better this way. It's just unfortunate that the game will not allow you to use a single joycon in a Mario Kart wheel and that is my biggest complaint with it.
I've always had search filters. This is just a new look and it appears they've added a filter for DLC, but I've been able to search by genre and by games with demos since I bought my Switch. Certainly nothing new.
I use an Anker Nebula Mars Lite portable projector with a third party Insignia dock. Works great for what it is though I wish I could adjust image parameters. Very low lag though and the brightness is good enough for a 60-70 inch image indoors with the lights on.
Not too long ago, there was a big push by snowflakes to say the Washington Redskins football team name was offensive and they pushed to have the name changed. This lasted until one of the newspapers pushing for the change finally did a poll of Native Americans to see what they thought. The results? The vast majority did not care. This made up issue died right after that.
I loved Road Rash, but this has not reviewed well. Still thinking about it because I love Mutant Football League and that game gets mediocre reviews as well (though most poor reviews of that game came from people who don't understand it).
So if you were only going to choose one, would you take Road Redemption or GRIP?
@BulbasaurusRex the dirty tricks and injuries/death add to the strategy. People expecting Madden are going to take a while to warm up to it. For one, if you suspect the ref has been bribed by the other team (dirty trick) because it seems like you are being unnecessarily penalized, you need to decide if you want to call a play that kills the ref (dirty trick) to get rid of the potentially bribed ref and take a penalty for it.....If you are wrong, you've taken a needless penalty.
@rockodoodle true, though I have a hard time rating it as high as some major titles because the level of effort doesn't need to be nearly as high as a game like BOTW or Red Dead Redemption 2. Then again, I think many games are overrated compared to games like that and if just comparing it to other sports games, I'd be going much higher. I think I might like Mutant Football more than Mario Tennis.
This is actually a fun game if you are not expecting a realistic American football game. 5 out of 10 is ridiculously low. It's a fun experience and I am really enjoying it. It's better than I thought it would be.

Also, they are asking too much for the game.

What do you mean terrible? I love my Mario Kart steering wheels.
Re: Developer Of Turn-Based Tactical Adventure Mutant Year Zero Will Consider A Switch Port "Soon"
I'd buy it in a heartbeat. I have Wasteland 2 and that game is pretty cool. This game looks similar.
Re: Gear.Club Unlimited 2 Speeds Onto Switch Tomorrow, New Features To Be Added After Launch
@MrKai It's compatible with the Mario Kart wheel...
I know, that's not the way you want to play but I think it's a blast that way.
Re: Shoot For The Stars When Everspace Arrives On Nintendo Switch This December
I think I want to try this game in VR instead.

Re: Nintendo Tries To Give ARMS A Leg-Up With New Party Crash Tournament Event
I never understood how Splatoon could sell better than Arms. Arms is original. Splatoon is just a worse version of a multiplayer FPS.

Re: Road Redemption Is The Next Best Thing To Road Rash, And It's Out On Switch Now
@TTgowings Thank you. Sounds like it's worth picking up then. I did not want to end up with a game like WWE 2K18.
Re: Road Redemption Is The Next Best Thing To Road Rash, And It's Out On Switch Now
@Pablo17 I'm guessing the trailer was based on the PS4 version of the game since it's a dual console release.
Re: Road Redemption Is The Next Best Thing To Road Rash, And It's Out On Switch Now
So how does it run on the Switch? Not one review out there...

@Stargazer Good point.

Re: Review: Mutant Football League: Dynasty Edition - Throwing Out The Rulebook Results In A Frustrating Game Of Gridiron
@SmaggTheSmug American Football is like a turn based strategy game, only both sides take their turn at the same time.

Re: Review: Mutant Football League: Dynasty Edition - Throwing Out The Rulebook Results In A Frustrating Game Of Gridiron
@rockodoodle
I was actually thinking a solid 7.5, which is not bad for what it is. I may actually prefer it to Madden....

I picked it up a few days ago. While not the greatest game ever, it is definitely worth what they are asking.
