Starpoint Gemini0

Buggy, unfinished, crashy mess with Russian voice actors who have absolutely no understanding of English, but that doesn't stop them from attempting it. The writing is really poorly translated and ends up making the whole thing just a confusing mess. Avoid at all costs.

Game Dev Tycoon0
May 14, 2013
Absolute garbage, beyond the idea and interface. This is essentially a knockoff of the iOS game Game Dev Story and it makes no effort to hide it. The major issues with this game are that the ways to make a successful game are almost completely nonsensical, and a viewing through the raw data is the only way, excepting extreme luck, to have much success. These include such oddities as the fact that any non-action title on the NES or SNES will flop, or how the PS2 is apparently only for action games and RPGs. The only thing notable about this game is the guilting of pirates the devs have done in an attempt to get attention, which I find ironic considering that they've done something far worse than piracy, they've ripped off another game. Avoid this, play the original game (Game Dev Story) instead.

Cry of Fear0
Apr 26, 2013
Absolutely moronic "horror" game. Unless you're the kind of person that gets afraid when things get dark, and then suddenly you see a goofy face and hear a loud scream, then this isn't for you. That's all this game can muster in the "scares" department. It's an HL1 mod rereleased, and it shows its age. Not much has been done to it, not even enough to get co-op working correctly. Zero effort, zero scares, zero entertainment. Skip on this.

God Mode0

Boring, bland, poorly made multi-player only third person shooter. You and three other crappily designed characters wander around a small area that looks like it belongs more in one of Painkiller's many shovelware standalone expansions. You stand in place mostly, waiting for the same few enemies to pop up to be killed, then you get to move on and do the same. This isn't a $10 game. There's about 40 minutes worth of content and a surprisingly long list of bugs compared to that small amount of content. Overall I'd say asking anything more than $2.50 is ridiculous.

Easily one of the best games ever. Awesome soundtrack of the best metal songs ever, awesome hack n slash gameplay with platformer and RTS elements, amazing voice actors ranging from Jack Black and Tim Curry to Ozzy Osbourne and Lemmy. There's absolutely no reason not to play this game.

A Game of Dwarves5
Oct 28, 2012
Don't get the complaints, this is one of the better minion management games I've seen since Evil Geniuses. The art style is nice even if it is simplistic, the tutorial teaches you all you need to know, it's true that you can't turn the camera up to look at the ceiling but you don't need to. Ever. Seriously, ignore the reviews complaining about that, you build in -layers- in this game. Just go up a layer, that's how it works. I've seen some idiotic reviews outright complain that you can't build much above ground. Uh, duh? Do you complain about not being able to walk in Mario Kart? About not being able to knit in Street Fighter? This is a game about dwarves building subterranean kingdoms, -subterranean- -dwarves-. The dwarves are a -bit- dumb, but I've encountered far dumber in the genre. I mean they're smarter than the Tropicans and the minions in Evil Geniuses, but not on par with the minions of Dungeon Keeper 2. They're just dumb enough that you have to manage them, but not so dumb that they'll screw you over or get themselves killed. If they're getting stuck and dying of starvation, it's because -you- messed up and trapped them.

Utter garbage. Can't rebind the controls, change the resolution, or change any graphical settings. The only gamepad support it has is for the 360 gamepad. No multiplayer, no level editor, more graphical and physics glitches than you can shake a stick at. Easily the worst PC port I've ever seen in my life, and that's saying something.

DO NOT BUY **** keep it short: No fog, no rust, very bright, well lit, worse voice acting, numerous graphical, audio, and gameplay glitches.
Worst port I've seen in years, even worse than that RE4 PC port that didn't support keyboard and mouse.

Postal III0
Jan 15, 2012
I hesitate to even really call this a game, which saddens me deeply as I was a huge fan of Postal 2, and have recently bought and replayed it off GOG.
First off, if you're surprised to find Postal 3 even came out, especially last December, well, there's a reason for that. Never before have I seen a release so heavily botched. Even Valve seems to be unsure of it's release, as they've been debating over how to handle the unlocking and the store page. You can get a steam code for the game in only one of two ways due to this: 1. By paying an RWS guy $40 and waiting for him to, eventually, email you a code or 2. Buying it from one of a few smaller online download sites and getting a Steam code from them. You can't get it from Steam, as they've even decided to drop the store page.
Beyond the horrible release issues, there's the horrible gameplay issues. The game crashes constantly, it freezes, there's weird graphical bugs that range from just being annoying to being downright hilarious, there's a wide variety of gameplay bugs that prevent the player from even continuing the game...
Aside from the bugs, they've also removed the freedom Postal 2 had. Now, instead, it's a level-based linear game reminiscent of the expansion pack to Postal 2, only a lot less funny. The humor... I swear to god it's less Postal 1 & 2 and more Uwe Boll's Postal film. It's trying too damn hard to be edgy, and in the end it feels less like a fun, raunchy experience and more like a little kid that just learned some cuss words and ethnic slurs.
Go grab, say, Bulletstorm instead. Hell, even Duke Nukem Forever. Postal 3 honestly makes Duke Nukem Forever look like Duke Nukem 3D.

Toki Tori2
Jan 7, 2012
It's got a neat idea to it, and I'd love to see the gameplay handled by some more competent people, but overall Toki Tori is an annoying, infuriating mess brought down by sync issues, hitbox issues, and weird AI behavior that can cause you to have to constantly restart a level because something isn't behaving the way the game wants it to.

Pass on this. It's poorly optimized, buggy as hell, and lacking in most graphic options. It's a halfassed port reminiscent of Resident Evil 4 for PC. The console version's fantastic, they just put absolutely no effort into porting this.

The Wonderful End of the World5
Dec 16, 2011
TWEotW is a fun Katamari Damacy clone, but it suffers from two major things that drop my score down to a 5. First off, the game is super short. I managed to 100% the game twice (I had to do it again when the bladder achievement got added) in about 5 hours. There's only a few levels, you don't have much time on them, and aside from Cafe Internet you can A+ them all on your first or second attempt.
The second major issue is that the collision and map design for this... are pretty awful at times. The previously mentioned Cafe Internet is a good example, as one quick glance on youtube or the steam forums will show that this level will make you rage harder than anything Katamari Damacy ever did, and not even by intent. It's so easy to get literally stuck in this due to horrible collision, cramped level design, and many things bouncing you across the level as though you were a pinball. Were it not for the awful collision related bugs, you could probably beat the game and get every single achievement in about an hour. Would I recommend this? Only if you're a diehard Katamari Damacy fan, or if you're a normal Katamari Damacy fan and there's a big sale going on (I'd say this is worth $1.)
Still, it's an awesome idea and I'd love to see Dejobaan expand this into a full game, though given the negative reception this has been given, and judging by their responses to said reception, I doubt that'll ever happen. It's a shame, we PC gamers need a good Katamari knockoff, at least until some magical day when we can play Katamari Damacy on our PCs without having to rely on PS2 emulation.

This is easily the best PC game I've played in years. There's so much content here, and that content keeps getting expanded on month after month after month. It started out as a small sort of Lego game, then mining got expanded, then building got expanded, we got minecarts, redstone circuitry to make complex machines, we got more mobs to go out and fight, biomes to explore. Snowlands, huge mountains, vast deserts. RPG mechanics, villagers, -pistons-... and there's more on the way. On top of that the game is highly moddable, the likes of which I, as a big time modder, haven't experienced much of since Morrowind, Half-Life 2, and Civ4.

RAGE0
Oct 9, 2011
First off, what did Rage get right? Well, graphically, it's pretty good. It's not -amazing-, there are better looking PC games. Welp, that's all for that section. The game a broken mess of a 360 port to PC. The graphical settings are as follows: Anti-aliasing, resolution, brightness. I didn't miss an option.
There's massive texture tearing issues, even on a high end PC that can run Crysis 2 on ultra you're going to have framerate issues, it's got more bugs than Daikatana, texture caching is completely broken, the story is unoriginal as hell, the game is way more linear than id's been claiming... I'd advise against even getting it if it was free. It's near unplayable, and it'll hog around 20 gigs of space on your HDD. I think this might honestly be the worst big budget game I've seen in the last few years.

The Political Machine 20083
Sep 16, 2011
The Political Machine 2008 is, sadly, the one awful game (beyond its predecessor) to come from ****, a blemish on an otherwise good company history.
It's graphically ugly: The interface is atrocious and the bobbleheads hardly look like anyone they're supposed to.
The game mechanics are clunky and at times confusing, there's some horrible balance issues, the candidate creator is terrible...
All together this feels like an alpha for a game we never got. I refuse to believe this is really a finished game.

Sid Meier's Civilization V1
Sep 8, 2011
Get Civilization 4 and BtS instead (you don't need Warlords, BTS has all of Warlords in it).
5 has worse AI, only just barely matches the visual quality of modded Civilization 4, is much harder to mod and thus barely enjoys any modding community unlike 4, and the game is just too damn easy due to how unbalanced everything is. On top of that, there's hardly any multiplayer support.
Just get Civ4. Want more civilizations than 4 has to offer? They've been modded in. Want better graphics? They've been modded in. Hell, you can get mods that make each nation's units look unique, so that a Portugese and a Dutch unit will not be clones like they are in 5. Then to make things worse, Firaxis has actually started -selling- civilizations, putting less work into them than modders do, for $5 each.
This sequel doesn't even deserve to exist if it can't compete with its predecessor on any field.

Age of Empires Online0
Sep 1, 2011
This may just be the worst MMO I've ever seen in my life. $20 per civ, a pay-to-win system, and wonky gameplay compared to previous Age of Empires games are signs that this game won't survive long. I find it hard to believe this was even meant to be a serious game and not an attempt to just see how far you could take microtransactions, and how much you could charge for them. A season pass alone is $100.

Tropico 43
Sep 1, 2011
Don't buy this, instead grab Tropico 3 Gold Edition for half the price. This adds about 15 new buildings, no new leader customization options, minimal rebalancing, no moddability, and it honestly looks uglier than 3 unless you're running on the highest settings.
This is, at best, a $20 expansion pack, nowhere near worth $40.
