Overly hyped, bug ridden mess, terrible UI system so I would suggest strongly to avoid for 3-6 month until patched, personally no further interest in the game Any review showing 90+ scores have clearly been paid and bribed to push it

First off yes, the game needs a very good PC to get the true experience, I'm playing on a i7-9700k with 32GB ram and RTX 3090 ASUS TUF, and everything is on ultra with full RT and DLSS on quality. Basically I've been a gamer since the mid 1970's and have played nearly everything over the last 40+ years on one platform or another, but Cyberpunk is almost exclusively made for PC to it's full potential, not even the PS5 or Xbox Series X gets close to the level of detail or immersion this game can do on a PC. Now firstly comparisons, the game is a blend of the original Deus Ex game from 20 years ago, mixed with Fallout 3/4, and maybe a bit of GTA5. It literally has the best of each of those games, backed by a fantastic developer that doesnt belive in crippling the experience with DRM, and that supports their games usually with 5 years of free content and patches. Now it is true that the game is riddled with bugs, but I've logged about 30 hours now and it's been very minimal, I can point out maybe 5 times I spotted something (NPC standing in the T position seen twice, NPC clipping through others again about two noticable times, seen a bin fly 10 ft off the ground up due to scenery clipping, and occasional flickering in photo mode, and thats it.... nothing game breaking or beyond what I would expect from a game of this time at launch). I'd imagine a lot of the early reports here were due to playing before the official 1.04 update and unlucky hardware/driver combinations, cos for me it's close to flawless. CDPR made the correct descison to go full first person, it made the world look amazing and personal, and not just another 3rd person game made for console audiences. It pays of hugely even just wandering around and seeing the sights as it is breath-taking at times, especially at night when Ray tracing really shows off the quality. It has definately been worth the weight. I've seen the console versions benchmarks on youtube and frankly they shouldnt have ported it to the last gen consoles as they simply cant do it justice, so I would avoid the console versions entirely. For me this is game of the decade, not Red Dead 2, not Last of Us, not Ghost of Tashima etc. The Witcher 3 which they made previously held the title for me, and has now finally been pushed off the top spot.

It never ceases to amaze me reading all the negative feedback, the vast majority being about the download size (127gb for 2020 isnt that big, get over yourself), or that they have issues on the Steam edition for much the same reasons. The fact is it is quite frankly the best PC game of 2020 thus far, even if you hate this type of game, down-voting because you have a potato that can't play it is childish, would you rather have hot steam garbage like TLU2 take GOTY on a console?? I thought not.

Seems a lot of negativity for this game, as someone that has enjoyed watching Wrestling on and off for 35 years, and played a lot of the games in that time too... well it is pretty decent on PC. First off the game is definately an improvement in many ways over 2k15 and 2k16 much in the same way small tweaks happen in other franchises like FIFA every year without much overhaul overall, this is very true here also. Graphics - I play maxed out in 4k60 without any issues and the game looks very nice with it's updated lighting and visuals over the last 2 PC installments. The animations have been vastly upgraded, faces now look better and have a lot more actions, taunts have been vastly improved and look more natural to the Tv shows now. Sound - Less buggy than the previous years without a doubt, 2k16 had an annying glitch on the sound for custom characters not playing all the crowd fx, this seems fixed for 2k17. Solo modes - Decent choice and revised mini-games is a welcome thing, definately feels sharper and more responsive this year, again compared to the only 2 PC games available for the last 15 years. Multiplayer online - TBH i never buy these type of games for web play cos bad pings would ruin the fluid gameplay, although I have tested on a private friends only match and seemed fine to me. Bad points? PC owners have to buy the DLCs this year... definately a crappy point for a late release vs console... also annoying glitch when custom characters sometime bomb the game to desktop when editing, but thats about it. I'm reviewing Digital Deluxe steam edition.

Well we had the vastly superior Battlefield 4 last week, this wek see's the limping dead horse back for yet another flogging... So whats new?? well the optimist in me was literally begging for COD game to get us back to the PRE-MW & BOPS crap... guess what? I was once again facepalming at how terrible this series is becoming. The Graphics are a very nice, but nothing special by PC standards..Crysis 1 still destroys this graphically. Gameplay mechanics are the same clumsy crap we've seen for about 6-7 years now... level design is better than previous titles but the destructables are pitifully bad compared to the stuff Battlefield has been doing for 4 years now, really annoyed at CRAPtivision once again for getting my hopes up.

BF4 on PC right of the bat has one of the best (if short) campaign modes I've played in many years, better even than Bad Company 2's, most certainly better than every COD game of the current crappy console generation. Multiplayer? well server issues aside as per usual at launch, been having an absolute blast with this game, yea it's annoying to have launch bugs and glitches, but at least it's fixable stuff... unlike COD Ghosts, which played today and it's utter junk compared even to old games like Crysis 1. DICE have done a great game once they iron out the battlelog and server problems. 9/10... A MUST HAVE GAME on PC.

With so many people going on about how it's the best RPG ever.... I knowing it was a piss poor PC port on release, I ignored the game until today's steam sale, all I can say is this game is a utter pile of the graphics look like a playstation 2 game, the menus are clunky, and while the game handled ok on my gamepad... the mods that fix the graphic just dont work for me. WASTED £4.99 and feel like I was robbed blind by all the bull****ting on here that said it was good.

I've been playing Codemaster's racing games since the first TOCA games and each iteration is generally better than the last, where things are starting to get a little unstuck is the push towards DLC and workman-like ports to PC that don't fully use the resources available hardly. It's not hard to find problems in the newest game GRID2 :- WHAT WRONG: 1. Low end textures, even ultra settings use less than 1gb video ram! that just shouts low end port. 2. Day zero DLC and likely more overpriced DLC down the line... a feature PC shouldn't be charged for as we don't have a used market for our games unlike consoles. 3. Bugs galore such as crashing to desktop, framerate issues, controller lockups etc. 4. No view, although modders have strived to fix that already. 5. Lacking many famous tracks that previous titles all had. 6. Weak dreary soundtrack that quickly gets turned off. BUT.... here's the thing... even with that taking all that into consideration, it's still one hell **** online racing game, and here's why. WHAT'S RIGHT:- 1. Shedloads of cars to buy and upgrade (notice many whingers say that it doesn't have it must have pirate copies since they all failed to mention that you CAN modify and customise cars in the multiplayer half of the game). 2. Handling of the cars IS arcadey... but so was GRID1, anyone that says GRID1 was a sim racing is talking utter it never was close to being one and still isn't now. Even the older TOCA games were not really sim racing level, have a look at games due later in the year like project CARS or i-racing etc if you want sim racing you utter morons. 3. Having no view is annoying maybe but who really gave a crap using it anyway? looked good on replays but even on sim racing games I play, I find having virtual wheels in front of my real wheel looks stupid, not to mention the field of view is always set for some short arse hobbit, I'm quite tall and in a real car I don't see the bloody wheel in front of my nose EVER! 4. There are plenty of racing modes to offset the lack of tracks, many are new to the series. 5. Want stock cars? go play Dirt Showdown. Overall I'm giving this a solid 80% because the game is great online, pirates moaning about lacking single player probably missing the point entirely... thats a training mode for multiplayer.

Wasn't quite sure what to expect from a shooter based MMO, most of the stuff the game does is pretty good... the controls are sharp, the gunplay is very well done, weapon modding etc is reasonable, driving vehicles around is also mostly done well, the game plays like a mix of LOST PLANET with BORDERLANDS... and for me that's a good mix. My biggest concern is how much of the old MMO fetch quests remain in this game... despite a large amount of random quests, it doesn't quite hit Guild Wars 2's grade of fluid, but the combat is certain damn fun and would stand up as well as a single player title. I'd give them more time to get more content into the game, but they been busy fixing most of the bugs so it's forgivable.

CO-OP is totally broken, graphics are pretty lame with bad textures on maximum settings, control glitches all over the place, contrived and poorly balanced quicktime gameplay... avoid this like the plague.

XCOM is basically a flawed classic, it needed to be made to reboot one of the best game series in the strategy hall of fame, but they have messed up in some areas, none of which spoilt the game for me. I bought my first PC as a teenager when the original UFO Enemy Unknown came out, it was that good... now about 15 years or so later the remake is out and it's pretty faithful while trimming down some aspects. The game is a lot faster paced than the original, whih is a good thing, but they took some of the freedom out of the game in doing so.... it was nice to fully customise loadouts in the original game, that is now pretty much gone and a very basic system replaces it...I don't really miss the action point system as the new mode it generally better. The biggest issues with the game are more to do with game balancing which can often be stupidly unfair and unrealstic, it seems a 90+% hit chance more often than not will statistically fail more than it succeeds, so feels like you get cheated by the game quite a lot..... Other main issues are to do with terrain problems with rendering, but most of that was fixed in the last patch.

While it lacks Diablo 3's looks with it's cartoon dayglow colours and simpler art style, it certainly makes up for it in every other way, the game is faster paced, feels more sturdy and sticks largely to the original diablo methods for skill trees and prgression. Loot side of things is right up there with Borderlands series.... theres simply tonnes of stuff, and thankfully without a god aweful action house you have to actualy earn everything. A perfect companion game to Diablo 3, different enough to feel different doing the same thing.

Free to play alone sells this game, but add to it high production values, massive maps, huge player counts, one of the most complex perk upgrade systems in any game i've seen, good graphics... the only real weak spot of the game is floaty controls but other than that, it's a must have for any PC gamer.

It could have been fantastic, it has some really good ideas but they did not include dedicated servers until well after a month after release, by which time the game became a ghost town. Thankfully it has had a massive price drop recently and with sales it may regain momentum as it deserves to do well. The game has some decent maps and good ideas... controls are a little bit floaty but generally nothing worse than other games in the price range.

Almost a perfect score, denied for a few issues that may or may not get fixed in time. Basically the game is a great all rounder... solo is fantastic, co-op is fun, and the multi is good fun too.... the problems are basically that it uses p2p game matching rather than dedicated hosting... so the main multiplayer mode is pretty much dire state due to people hosting with crap pings and low bandwidth etc. The second annoyance is custom maps made with the editor cant use ai npcs and animals or even vehicles for anything else but solo challenges, need to have them unlocked for all modes ASAP. While these are big problems it's not enough to call this a bad game, it's great.

Good fun compared to the bland War of the Roses game, sadly lacking a solo player campaign that would have pushed the score up, slightly behind warband due to that, but great fun in the short term. Needs more maps and options but I only paid £5 in sales, so no regrets

If you buy this game before reading up about how it is all a big scam by the developers... you deserve to lose your money on this steaming turd ****.

Worst game on PC I've played ever.... not a single thing about 007 Legends has been done to even a workmanlike level... seriously apart from the music there is not a shred of goodness in this game. AVOID THIS GAME EVEN IF YOU GET IT FRO FREE OFF SANTA... BURN IT...DONT EVEN INSTALL IT.

Well I was a bit worried as this title was going down the road of COD, and being the between BF3/BF4 project using the same era and **** I liked the last MOH game so gave it a good run through last night. Basically the single player campaign is VERY GOOD, very much as good as Bad Company 2's was so thats a one up on BF3 straight away. The new leaning mechanics are a bit weird but are actually very handy once you get used to it... feels a bit like the Rainbow 6 vegas cover system without the wall locking, again **** tonne of weapons... more than BF3 and they feel less hobbled and more meaty when being used. So what about multiplayer? graphically a bit weaker than single player, but still pretty decent (running on my GTX580 in ultra) and felt very fluid if a little smudgey (probably a FXAA filter being used?). The maps are a right rabbit warren of cover and sneak zones, which feels a lot better than the previous MOH games open run and gun gamplay... although edge of map invisible walls is a bit noticeable in places, this feels very tactical in a Ghost Recon sort of way, sure it s a bit of a mashup of all 3 big name FPS games... and the majority of it works, it feels very fresh and the game modes are generally good. Maybe the reviewers should have used the massive patch fix before going into the game, 'cos to me this is a winner at least on PC, maybe not a BF3 beater but certainly up to anything I've seen from the CODMW/BOPS factory and worth a look... also bear in mind I had BF3 premium and got this game half price thanks to Origin's discount scheme. EA becoming customer friendly.... WTF ****

For PC I can not see the point of it really, we have better community mods for free that cover most of the stuff in the DLC, apart from a new branch of story based mission is there any need for this DLC not to be free on PC? I say nope.

While I can't really see any problem in this as got it for free on release, at the now £2.99 price i'd say it's a bit lame... shame as the artwork for the character is some of the best so far... but the lack of genuine new traps is a bit of a let down... I was hoping for jack in the box bombs or gags etc not just random spawn of other characters gear.

Utter trash cash in that tries very little but your patience. looks like some crappy iOS game that they couldn't be arsed to port over to PC properly and hideous camera panning and glitches, and some of the worse voice imitations ever make this worst the movie tie in of 2012.

Picked it up for about a £5 in sales recently, the game isn't great but it's okay to while away time now and then for what I paid, includes all the addons as you'd expect, so it feels a bit more fleshed out than the standalone versions. Not a patch on Dungeon Keeper that it clearly tried to imitate, sadly had they kept the originals gameplay mechanics it would have been great, as it is.... average.

The Recon series is getting worse on each iteratio, this is one of the clunkiest console ports I've seen in a long time, so-so graphics, tiny levels with poor mechanics, unlikely any patches can save this turkey....

Having played the original games when they came out I was really looking forward to the new game, it's hard to say this new iteration doesn't quite hit all objectives fully.... Single player is exactly how the game should be.. fast corridoor action game with tonnes of diving and bullet-time physics, along with excellent cutscenes that move fluidly between action and story in a way that is seemless. Where the game starts to look a bit shabby is the bolt-on multiplayer game side of things. While singleplayer is suited to the 3rd person view, competive play most certainly is not, for starters the crosshair is off centred so you often can't see the target when behind cover without exposing your arse making the cover system a bit flakey when combined with the iffy locking method it uses. The other big issues are "always on radar" which is very noob for a game with such tiny maps, sure you can earn xp unlocks to help reduce visibility but really this game should not have a radar at all as default, sadly you have to grind out 5000 kills to play hardcore mode that doesn't feature this. My final annoyances are the fairly low map count and that most of them are pretty damn small COD size crap, I was expecting at least something more in line with a single zone from GTA4 size, also they are touting a season DLC pass for £20, which is loathsome and ends up making the game cost £70 to have a complete game which is a ripoff no matter what they add. Overall a fun short term action shooter, with small scale multiplayer that could be really good if they fixed some of the console grade port **** the DLC does that then maybe it'll be good... but if its more of the same, don't bother. 8/10

Hmmm **** all the leftover offal from the recent DIRT games and make a Flatout clone.... how could it possible go wrong? First off, most people hated all the Gymkhana crap so making a game dedicated to it with some demo derby stuff is okay I guess, it'll sell by droves on consoles, but on PC? not a chance. The music is beyond poor...large collection of tired "Bro-Rock" and "Dubstep" makes you knock that off within first hour of play. The damage model is actual very minimal considering it's using the DIRT3 EGO engine... stupid beyond belief to reduce physical damage models on a game that should have it even more extreme and visually destructive. The graphics are decent but unspectacular due to over colorfulness and bland texturing, the car models are good but that's about it. So what about the handling? oh jesus christ what did they do? cars all feel like they are made from fibreglass and not metal hulks, wheelspin is terrible and momentum issues give them no feeling of weight. The menu system is utterly crap, taking far to long to chug between options and get into the races, with very laboured movement and often non-skippable waffle. So whats the good points??? well no GFWL this time around, but uses Codemasters new "Racenet" so with that being a new system it may turn out just as bad, or maybe fantastic... will have to **** that and see over time. Overall the game feels very cheap and bolted together like frankenstein's monster of DIRT giblets... it doesnt have enough in it to be considered a full game as many tracks are taken directly out of previous DIRT series games and should have been a £10 DLC for Dirt 3.

Having played through all character types on normal, I have to say this game feels very close to the original games in terms of gameplay, story and audio quality, okay so the leveling and buffs system is all new but it seems to work pretty well and the auction house is handy for folk that can't be bothered with grinding for that "perfect fit" gear. Personally I never suffered any timeout or lost saves or server issues whether in solo or co-op modes but can appreciate how crappy that would be due to its drm method which is a bit over the top, also the huge price by PC game standards (Most games are £25 on release these days, but thankfully I only paid £20 for my D3 2 days after release so can't moan there either). Will Torchlight 2 be better? who knows but I'll be buying that as well since it's dirt cheap and has most of the missing stuff PC gamers demand.

I remember playing the proper RTS syndicate games as a teenager, and whiel this has a smell of the concepts, it falls way short of being a decent reboot of the series and simply feels like Deus EX HR done on the cheap to keep console fans happy. It not a boring game, but its not a headliner either... settled for mediocre generic shooter skinned to look better than it is with its pretty run of the mill texturing etc by PC standards. Deus EX HR may not be perfect but it does everything this does better.

While it doesnt have the looks, the sheer creativity sandbox aspect is a very big selling point, if you ever liked lego bricks as a kid this game is for you, chuck in some mods that add new visuals and things to play with, play on a co-op multiplayer server with friends and you have best reserve a lot of your real life time for this. Simple and Fun, and runs even on the **** PC.

This game rocks, just about everything about arkham Asylum has improved, the graphics are stunning in Dx11 ultra, bigger playing area, tighter control system, more enemies and unlocks...I don't understand the problems people are having, works perfectly on Dx11 maxed out on mine, not come across any game killing problems at all, maybe the people with negative comments dont know how to config a PC properly or just have rubbish PCs.

Well it certainly delivered the goods on PC with it's DX11 effects, it's just stupidly good fun on a 64player map with all the **** happening...feels like a real war with the perfect sound, graphics and playabilty mix. Single player is a bit so-so, it's not terrible but it does feel a bit COD-like with its short small levels, but take that as a minor issue as single player battlefield isn't what your gonna buy it for. There is no way MW3 will get close to this title for sheer destruction and mayhem.... a must buy for all FPS fans.

The last TRUE COD game, the series ever since has been dead to me, full of hackers online with zero skill needed other than twitch speed bunny hopping to dodge bullets.

100+ hours of content before you even added the DLCs, decent graphics for the release year, okay combat system, very atmospheric music and sound, totally moddable so you can get updates to just about everything. Just about the perfect RPG of the decade.

Baseball getting 96% are you **** me???? I was a fan of old classice like hardball on the Amiga back in the day when swinging a bat and hitting a ball was considered gameplay.... but nowadays it's probably one of the most boring sports to make into a video game. Seriously need balancing scores.

First attempt at a 3rd person shooter and it shows, some of it works well but theres little new that hasnt been done to death in GOW except the Warhammer universe as a backdrop, just seem to lack that vital ingredient that keeps in pushed into tthe also ran clone games, rather than a genre leader

Improved slightly over 2010, suffered same day zero bugs (not a good thing ever!) as 2010 edition, with some pretty major issues even after patch #1, (such as the 11/11 setup cheat thats layed waste to multiplayer with other humans). Overall the handling is far better, the weather system now works properly and looks slightly better. Could have been done as a DLC TBH.

Graphics are just as basic as they have been since about 2007 (seriously **** texturing and low rez console grade console junk) which thankfully is saved by the best gameplay of the series so far and half decent animation improvements and faster paced cuscenes over '11. Commentary is ruined by some lisping fool who pronounces the names wrong far to often, bring back Andy Gray.

More bugs than a david attenborough nature documentary, utter stupid multiplayer modes (seriously they make a driving game the focus for multi on a FPS???) then make a 1gb patch a week after release that doesnt even fix most of the issues. The game looks like a piece of crap from 6 years ago even on a high end rig.

One of the worst games I've ever played, what the hell happened? Dungeon Siege 2 was awesome, but this was just dire **** multiplayer was merely single stages from the game with zero cohesion... avoid at any price, avoid even if its free.

Having been expecting a turkey having seen "Call of Juarez 3 : The Cartel" (using the same Chrome5 engine), I was pleasantly happy to see this is pretty good. About 2 hours into the game and I find the crafting decent (nice to see pockets are not limited for crafting parts, only main weapons), Co-Op seems to be similar to idea in Borderlands (Harder and more zombies and loot for every player that joins in) in that even solo mode is advertised as a LAN or Online game through Steam so folk can join if you want them to without need for solo and multi characters. Slighty disappointed with lack of customising on the graphics settings, maxed out in 1080p FRAPS was reporting 145fps which is impressive, but I'd rather have it limited to 60fps and better quality textures and tessalation for Dx11 owners etc. Overall the game does add a new zombie game to the collection and it's a worthy choice, unlike rubbish like dead rising 2 or resident evil 5 which ****.

Admittely they have tried to patch this rotten apple with a decent map pack, but they can't polish a turd no matter how hard they try.... COD as a series is officially dead since Waorld at war thanks to console limitations being imposed on PC owners.

Hmmm was expecting a lot more from this TBH, nearly as bad as recent COD games with the gameplay with its flakey controls and terrible plot. God I hope they don't ruin Dead Island as well, the chrome 5 engine itself produces some decent visuals for the open areas, while not epic due to some of the lowest resolution textures I've seen in recent years, it does have some nice light and smoke effects. Sadly gameplay is rubbish, feels like a rush job.

I'm not even going to waste more time explaining why I hate this, it just plain **** in every possible way... i'd rather play C&C4 for the rest of my life than be subjected to this crap (yes it's THAT BAD).

I really tried to like this, really I did! but once again turned out to be another tiny level console shooter with all it's focus on pushing teenagers egos up with dumb achievements and auto-aim gameplay... Like gingers...this has no soul.

The COD series used to stand for quality shooters, but everything after "World at War" has proven the series has lost its soul to the fat cats trying to please sad little console ****

It's a good RPG but I found the combat system was a bit of a backwards step and spoilt what remained, the graphical performance was ropey at release despite having a high end PC... and TBH the effects didn't impress me to much, could have done this on the original's engine and would have been just as good.

Utterly outstanding open world RPG Shooter that everyone should be forced to play by law, ok the graphics are rubbish by PC standards, but they work well so I can forgive them for that, the story has so many side quests that it can take 100+ hours of hunting to do them all. BIOWARE needs to take a look as their newer titles (ME2 and DA2) have fallen behind Bethesda's offerings.

Utter trash that only fanboys/girls would even waste time playing, EA need to sort out the movie game licences as they are just a utter shambles every year

Still the best of the series in my view (less dlcs yet the game is far longer than ME2 with all it's dlcs) graphically its decent enough for the age, feels better designed then the sequel, and it's still one of the best RPG shooters about. EA needs to get ME3 back on track and dump DLC crapness unless the game is 20+ hours like this title was

Still a headliner when it comes to great FPS with co-op, there's no real point having this one when you can get L4D2 as cheap with all L4D1's content now ported by Valve as free dlcs.
