They improved upon the last game & didn't stray to far from a winning forumla, just added some new layers to what was there as far as gameplay & progression go. That is a huge plus in my book as I highly enjoyed the last TR. The story is very intiguing as well so they did not slack there either. All in all this has been my favorite game released this year so far, I highly recommend it!

I can finally recommend this game as they have patched it sufficently enough to run within the stated requirements. I had pre ordered this since RE is one of my all time favorite games. Well on release it was a terribly unoptimized mess, I'm running an i7 4700MQ 2.40MHz, GTX 770M 3GB, & 16GB of RAM & had to actually turn the res down to 720p to get playable framrates. I just gave it a check to see if they had patched it to resolve any of the problems & can say they have. I now can play this at 1080p max settings & keep a stable 60fps with v-sync enabled.

That said the game itself is great, if you have already played the original RE, RE Director's Cut, or the RE remake on Gamecube you know what you're getting into. If not I strongly urge you to get this game as it is on of the classics, that IMO everybody should play through at least once. Especially if you're a survival horror fan, this is the game that started the whole genre.

A great little indie horror game here! Not a ton of content but there is 4 different endings so the replay value is high. Mostly this is a walking sim with a ton of atmosphere but the way it is put together & it's story being open to your personal interpretation gives it a unique feel among similar games. I'm not gonna BS you, the game is short & lacks any type of real gameplay (i.e. no way to fight back against enemies, not much interaction with the enviroment) so if you're looking for horror game with action this not for you. On the other hand if you're looking for a unique horror experience & not adverse to more of an experience than a game this may be for you. IMO the only real con about this game is the price, I feel that $15 is a little steep for what it offers but if you can get it on sale I highly recommend this game.

Shadow of Mordor is one of the most sastifying games I've played in quite awhile. Yes the story gets a little confusing, yes the gameplay mechanics are borrowed from other games, but you play this game & get your 1st execution then none of that matters. The fighting in this game is by far the most fun I've had with a game in some time. I actually have had trouble moving the story forward cause it just so much fun to run around & pick fights with random capitans/warchiefs. Not to mention the plethora of side missions to do & collectibles to find.

I highly recommend this game to anyone considering getting it. Unless you absolutely hate 3rd person action games you will find this is a great game with tons of replay value. Don't fall for the it's Assassin's Creed/Batman with a LotR skin on it argument. While this game can be described that way, you'd be doing yourself a horrible disservice by passing it based on that. I can not understate just how much fun it is to play this game.

All in all IMO this one of the few games from last year that is actually worth full price, if it's on sale it is a must buy. You really can't wrong with this game & it will provide you with many hrs of gaming bliss.

If you're a fan of South Park this is a must have game! Ignore my Steam hrs., I have already beat this on PS3 & 360 so I have finished the game before. It is just such a good game I wanted it on PC also if that tells you anything. This game is actually written by Trey Parker & Matt Stone so it is not just another money grab on the SP brand like SP games before it. It's almost like playng a few episodes of the show, the graphics look identical to the animation in the show.

The gameplay itself is excellent, good & responsive control scheme (I use a 360 controller to play), good loot & upgrade systems, & as a bonus the junk you acquire to sell for in game currency is things from the show's history! You can pick up an Okama Gamesphere, Butter's book "The Poop That Took a Pee", the Shake weight, etc.. While it is just junk that you sell I found some of the items hilarious & they reminded me of some of my favorite SP episodes.

The story is what is the best about this game though, as I said before the creators of SP wrote this game & they do not dissapont. I don't want to give any spoilers so I'll just say they put as much care & attention to detail in the game as the would any episode. Definitely one of the funniest games I've ever played. Bottom line, if you like RPGs & the show just buy this game. You will be glad you did.

Well what can I say that hasn't already been said about this game. It is definitely the gold standard for rouge like games IMO. So much different stuff to aquire & so many different ways to beat it the replay value is through the roof. Also one of my favorite things about this game is the fact that it is good for a quick 10 to 15 min. session or a multiple hr. session.

What really shows me how good this little game is, is the fact that I have almost all the newer AAA titles on PC & PS4 right now & all I have been playing lately is this game. No going back & forth or giving pros & cons with this one, just get it you will not regret it.

Edit: Still standing by this review just without the latest DLC factored in.

Haven't gotten to much time on this yet but from what I have played so far I'm loving it. Great graphics, responsive controls, no stability problems for me, & the story seems well thought through & very interesting so far. I'll update this review as I progress through the game, but if your on the fence about this game I'd say go ahead & buy it. As long as your a fan of horror you will not be dissapointed.

Interesting story, great graphics for an indie game that costs $5, fairly solid gameplay. So far I have had my interest piqued by this game, a bit of a DS clone but that's not a terrible thing IMO. All in all for the price it seems well worth it. I'll update this review as I progress through the game, but I recommend it so far!
