Really breathtaking. They hired Hans Zimmer to compose the soundtrack and parts of it sound similar to Superman Man of Steel. The environment art is beautiful. They made a remarkable interpretation of New York. I'd compare it to Max Payne. Remedy made NY dark, dirty and it perfectly matches the plot. NY in Crysis 2 is big, daylight and offers one of the best graphics of all..." current

The best part of Crysis is surely the lighting department and the environment art. The textures, lights, theme. They had very good artists to make it. For the last Crysis they at least improved on voice acting, properly sync subtitles, properly encoded cinematic videos, a decent soundtrack. There are many many details that confuses players. For ex: in Crysis 2 the thre..." current

I remember playing Red Faction at a cousin's computer but never made it to the end. I was expecting RF2 to be better but that's not the case. This game is a showcase of destruction physics. Other FPS didn't have GeoMod. The design of this game is flawed. The AI is bad. Weapons with long reload times. Slow life regen that would make the regen in Halo feel like a rocket. Bad level design. The best part of it wa..." current

Better actors, better art, better level design, better gameplay. Fantastic soundtrack. I loved the fact that you could see the same story from two perspectives. MC and The Arbiter. I loved the characters. I felt deep sadness for Thel Vadamee. He is ashamed and then goes on a suicidal quest that will end with redemption and revenge in Halo 3. In Halo CE they clearly didn't..." current

I wouldn’t give it more because there are things in this game that don’t deserve an 8. It’s a good game, but I noticed some aspects that lower the score. I wouldn't call this an awesome game. It’s good, but I liked the story of F.E.A.R. better. The parts that scared me the most were in the middle of the snowstorm. I was terrified of freezing to death, getting lost, and a huge monster appearing out of nowhere. Indoor..." current

The image of Alice with blood was striking. I played with the HD textures mod. The music is good, but it repeats a lot. There's not much variety. One of the tracks has a sound that reminded me of the ringtone from the Japanese horror movie "One Missed Call." Another has a clock tower bell sound that reminds me of something, maybe FFVIII, but I can't remember what. Overall,..."

I played the 5th episode and skipped the rest because I already know them. This fifth episode is too hard. The difficulty is somewhat exaggerated, and because of that, there are a lot more atomic health and medkits than in the original Duke. The recorded completion times for each level are too fast. It took me much more than half an hour on each level. It shows 5 minutes recorded. What?? I didn't find..."

The only downside for me is the "hollywood-esque" script writing with heroic deaths and the falls from great heights that are completely impossible in real life. Everything else is great, excellent. The environment art, the level design, the soundtrack, the voices, the character development. They nailed the stealth, progression, upgrades, skills, difficulty. The game captured the survivor experience ju..." current

Epic gave the base game for free years ago and I decided to try it out. I played the DLC a long time after, downloading it with torrent, but the DLC is completely skippable and you won't miss anything important. This game is okay. It has its fun part and good moments, but ultimately, it's not great. I didn't bother completing every single achievement or cleaning up all the areas. You also don't have to have to..."

I didn't want a hard challenge and this expansion is already hard even on easy. Moreover, after beating some hard games in the past weeks, I was showing signs of exhaustion. Lucky me I didn't play on hard, otherwise I'd be using cheats or would had already dropped it hahaha. The level design is much more modern than the original quake.

But they have a more modern design and new textures. They break away from the previous brown dungeon-like style. However, it still feels like Quake. No characters, NPCs, dialogues, or cutscenes. Just find the key and progress to the next area as always. I'd say that they compare very well to the classic Tomb Raider games with so much to discover, challenges to face, buttons to activate, etc..." current

I played it and I'd say it's like a shoot em up game in the form of a third person shooter. The concept is more or less similar. At the end of each level there is a huge boss, much like R-Type for instance. The controls are terrible. The time it takes for the char to get up after being knocked down is horrendous. The concept of having to recharge to not die reminds me of Arcade machines. I..." current

In the beginning I was amazed by the colorful presentation, the happiness, the theme, the soundtrack, the joy of the togges. However, over time I've found out that the camera is the biggest offender in this game. The level design seems to have failed to accommodate the camera and there is lack of space for it to move around. In some places the camera's..." current

I felt like Crytek was trying to make their own Halo killer game. They created a story that combines north koreans with aliens. The environments combine Lost, The Day After Tomorrow, Predator, Independance Day and Battleship. Nothing in the story has its origins explained. You don't know where the nanosuit came from or the aliens themselves. Poor design everywher..." current

In turn, Rage 2 was worse than Rage. The geography of the island where the DLC takes place is horrible. No care taken to build a believable terrain, buildings, roads, vegetation or anything in it. Trees planted on top of buildings. The buildings themselves are placed out of the blue and have half built emergency stairs outside. There is no sense of decaying structures, bu..." current

It's a great game, but it's also full of flaws that you'll notice if you compare it to games that came after it. It can't be helped, sometimes a game is exploring a new genre and because it's the first there ought to be flaws and some things won't age well. I didn't had the opportunity to play this game when it was new. I only played it in 2024. It was also my first time playing a third person shooter that..." current

This game is short and can be completed in one hour, but the design of it is so lame that I couldn't continue. The team who made this game clearly has no experience at all in making shoot em up games. According to wikipedia the studio behind this game has members from the original studio that developed the previous R-Type Final game. Well, this game clearly lacked proper direction because it feels so amateurish. The leve..." current

Gears of War 2 retains the same gameplay and art of the first. Same soundtrack style. Same direction. The story has more details and more dramatic elements. They deepened the character development. This game pushed the limits of the xbox 360's hardware. In short, they went for grandiosity with dramatic moments. I really felt riding some boat..." current

I'd say that Gears of War 3 picks up the best from Gears 1 and 2. In comparison to the previous title in the series I'd say that the previous was smoother. Gears 3 didn't feel it had the same smooth transitions between acts and levels as in Gears 2. To better explain why I consider Gears of War 2 a bit better in some aspects I'd begin by saying that in Gears 2 they made the experience smoother. The transitions..." current

From all the segments, the one near the end when you have to defend the doors of the laboratory was the highest ranked one for me. I think that the developers were tired after making Halo CE, 2, 3 and ODST. According to their contract, one more Halo game was required and for the last one they pushed in directions that they didn't in the previous games. I loved the soundtrack..." current

For me Halo is Microsoft's version of Star Wars. It combines great characters, actors, setting, soundtrack and gameplay. The design of the Ark is beautiful and much more enticing the Death Star that is just a sphere. The gameplay clearly evolved from Halo 2. The pink needles gun can no longer be dual wielded. It was overpowered to do that in Halo 2. New..." current

The health items are so small that it's hard to spot them. They tried to make a more story driven game, with a much slower pace. I appreciated the soothing jazz / blues music that plays in the city and the atmosphere of mystery. Somehow it reminds me of some tune from Parasite Eve, some flashback scene from FFVII and some anime. The story takes place in the mid..." current

I didn't like the jokes, the dialogues, the plot, the progression. The soundtrack lost the grandiosity of the previous games. They captured the essence of Gears of War and tried to bring in the new. New characters, new dynamics, new enemies, new locations. It has better graphics to take advantage of the better hardware, but why drop the desaturated aspect of it? M..." current

Even the villain has the same face. Both games are so similar that it's almost as if the same developers made them. Rage 2 feels very different from the first Rage and after playing Red Faction Guerrilha I understood why. The last mission of both games is pretty much the same, except that Red Faction Guerrilha doesn't have giant mutants. Also, no super powers in Red Faction Guerrilha. comp..." current

It's one of the most successful transitions from 2D to 3D of all time. The mechanic to reverse time is one of the most fun mechanics ever created. The level design is excellent. They did all that to run on the PS2 with 32MB of RAM. My computer has one thousand times more RAM than a PS2. To explain why I didn't give a higher score.

I read the title and thought it was an official expansion to Max Payne 2. One of the developers was one of the designers in Max Payne 2. I had high expectations which were all severely frustrated. Awful level design and combat design. The scale of the environment is all wrong, including stretched textures. The story is about Mona being hired to assassin one character.

Comparing it to Resistance 2 I felt that Killzone 2 was more cinematic and more grandiose. In Resistance 2 you can only carry two weapons.

On one hand they pushed the limits of the PS2's hardware. One the other hand they made this game quite exhausting. Better HUD, more powers, more combat tricks.

If you want to learn game design and puzzle design, do play Portal and listen to all the developer commentary. It's a big lesson. Compared to Limbo I felt more challenged by Limbo than by Portal. Even though Portal is 3D, Limbo had harder to solve puzzles. The voice acting of Glados is just fantastic. It's amazing how they've done a character that is not..." current

It borrows all the complexity of PoE. Gems, sockets, affixes, amulets, skill tree. They created an ARPG in first person with excessive complexity. In Shadow Warrior 3 they changed it back to simplify the game. The interface in Shadow Warrior was crude, as if they were emulating brush strokes. It had its charm.

The excessive complexity of the second was ill received and they decided to abandon it. The game is short and they opted for a pure linear game. No secondary routes or hub city.

The character does not have facial expressions, but the two bright eyes and the animation make it one of the most charming characters ever made. This game taught me a lesson.

Borderlands offers more fun than Red Faction Guerrilha and the only exception may be the destruction physics of the latter. In some aspects I'd say that Borderlands is better than Rage 2.
