It's not a game for everyone- however to those that need it, it will be the most memorable game they have ever played. It's very much artistic work- music, animation, story, even the game design is very unique.

Nearly perfect. The gameplay is overwhelming to beginners new to the genre but those that stick it out can not only enjoy one of the best soundtracks of all time- but a rewarding progression system that allows creativity when building a team to fight any enemy.

I hate to say this, but they did fumble the landing. It is very well produced, and it has an excellent cast that completely immerses you. Unfortunately, I personally felt the last episode was rushed and felt very predictable. It also unravels a lot of previous tensions but still leaves a lot unanswered. I have done two runs choosing two wildly different options and feel the same at the end of both runs.

Eve is a bland main character, and with that the story is also dim-witted. The worlds are detailed but feel empty. The combat is repetitive sadly. The music is surprisingly epic, the bosses are...nothing special. So, if you want to look at this game's biggest "assets" (and boy she has got them) while fighting with a big sword in a post-apocalyptic world you have it right here. I will say it was fun to collect all of Eve's costumes and outfits.

It is much better NOW then when it first launched but it's still unacceptably buggy and the servers are not as stable as I would like. Hacked leaderboard times on a "competitive" game? The game has endurance racing formats but replay mode only lasts 15 minutes? The game sounds good, looks good, drives good, but there is awful progression. The car roster is grand but underutilized due to the "meta", meaning only a few cars are worth driving online.

Potentially, one of the greatest racing games of all time. What you get from this game that not ANY game made today is sense of speed. You are FLYING in this game. It's also an incredibly frustrating game because as you're flying if you hit any barrier or car its instant death of your race, the A.I. will win, no doubt about it- so it rewards perfection which keeps you on your toes. ONLY COMPLAINT is this game is FAMOUS for its awful rubberbanding and the last 1/3 of the career.

When I think of Resident Evil, I think of Survival Horror where traversing a hallway is both terrifying and a strategic decision. This game is MOSTLY Call of Duty Werewolfs and Witches with a busty vampire lady DLC included. It's not the scariest game for the most part. Thats not necessarily a bad thing but it's also not the most intuitive shooter. I was satisfied at the end but not blown away. Worth a play, form your own opinion it might be the right game for you!

A lot of fun but a TOTAL sensory overload. Some events are incredibly challenging due to sheer speed but if you like these sci-fi arcade racing games, you cannot go wrong with this.

This game deserves its flowers. It's that good. I can't say anything without it being a spoiler. If you like horror mixed with deck building, play it.

The puzzles are absolutely BS towards the end, BUT the gunplay is satisfying, and you get a lot of useful tools to change things up in your favor. This game is creative, it has wonderful music, it's scary, its story is interesting. It pays homage to older titles like Resident Evil and Silent Hill but has its own identity due to its sci-fi atmosphere and the way characters tell their story through items you find in the game. Hidden details reveal a lot, take your time exploring. Enjoy!

This game is not for everyone. It will kick you in the nuts repeatedly if you ****. And you will ****. Thats the point, it's fun to figure out how to drive fast by starting out like the worst driver in the world. You will learn the difference between asphalt versus dirt versus gravel vs snow. You will learn to hear what 100m and 200m means when your co-driver calls out a crest coming up WHILE you are mid-apex at 100mph going off a jump. Its surreal how hard this **** satisfying.

If you can't drift the cars, you'll hate this game. If you didn't play old school Burnout back in the day which always emphasized taping the handbrake or brakes to drift, you'll be lost. YET I love this game. This is a very good remaster of a now decade old game. Solid 60fps, all the DLC included, and working multiplayer servers that are reliable and did not crash once on me with all my friends playing. We had a great time! It's good ol' cops and robbers with a little bit of weapon mayhem.

It's an average arcade racer, but to its credit- you drive really well modeled Hot Wheels and the locations you race in are very interesting and well detailed (even if there aren't many) There is also a track editor which is rare for modern racers. There is a heavy emphasis on DLC but it's not mandatory and it's not "pay to win." I wish it had better music; I wish the cars sounded more aggressive; I'm not sold on the drifting mechanics- the cars feel too loose. Still worth a play though.

Absolute masterpiece of a platformer. Short but extremely sweet. Do not kid yourself this is Playstation's Mario Killer or at the very least a direct competitor.

Even an hour in it feels shallow in its story and gameplay. It does a neat twist breaking the mold of a 2D side scroller and temporarily becoming a 3D game but in the 3D space the game wasn't very clever with its puzzles and frankly unrefined. The story is told to you like you're five years old, and to be fair this game is likely intended for younger audiences but even then, the combat is one dimensional.

For an arcade jet fighting game, I did not expect to put in well over 20 hours of gametime into it. The singleplayer is SOLID! Lots of missions and variety, I love that you can customize the weapons on every jet and the jet itself for more speed or control or stealth, etc. It means you can really get strategic with your choose of aircraft (which there are a lot of) and weapon combo. Multiplayer w/ friends was fun but repetitive BUT the silly laser cannons were hilarious!

Coming from the "rags to riches" era you have to earn all the supercars and work your way up the bosses in the festival- this is the last time you'll see that gameplay in any Forza Horizon game. After this game the developers started handing out hyperarcs like Halloween candy. Horizon 1 runs at 30fps and it is solid but, come on. 30fps? Gross by today's standards. The lighting is bad too- shadow quality is awful. Otherwise, one of the best open-world racers ever.

You play as the "hero" character in a bunch of misfits traveling the world and enjoying fight after fight to try and rescue your younger sister but as you discover there is deception to the world you live in and a sinister realization as everything you know is wrong. The gameplay has been improved in this remake, but you do a lot of backtracking. The ending will rock your world. The character writing for the most part is satisfying- you will likely be emotional at the end.

The developers have improved from the last game, BUT- it still has a glaring issue. Progression. There is none. Yes, you have "missions" scattered around that you have to unlock or and beat in sequential order, but this will take you only a couple to a few hours. They are too easy and go by in a blink of an eye leaving you this vast, empty, open world that quickly becomes stale and pointless. YET, I still like driving in it- because it feels good to drive and sounds amazing.

Scattered races in a bland open world that provide no incentive to repeat after beating once. There is no rages to riches progression in this game. You get a hyper car within the first hour of playing. Is it pretty? Yes. Does it handle well? Yes. Is there a lot of content? Yes. But man does this game get stale after even...15-20 hours. You just experience everything far too quickly. A racing game needs progression this has none, which is a shame- it has potential.

Because this game relied so heavily on its multiplayer community, I can't say this game has aged as well as everyone else thinks it has. Sure, it has a lot to do, and a whole lot of quality content to experience BUT, the A.I. is weak compared to modern games so you will eventually get bored. The graphics have aged.... alright but nothing to write home about. What makes this game stand out, is the sheer number of cars and tracks, Jeremy Clarkson, and hours of things to do.

Potentially, one of the greatest racing games of all time. What you get from this game that not ANY game made today is sense of speed. You are FLYING in this game. It's also an incredibly frustrating game because as you're flying if you hit any barrier or car its instant death of your race, the A.I. will win, no doubt about it- so it rewards perfection which keeps you on your toes. ONLY COMPLAINT is this game is FAMOUS for its awful rubberbanding.

I'm sure for kids and especially if you want to do couch co-op with your kids its excellent- it's an adorable platformer, I'm an adult and it wasn't that there wasn't any challenge, but it wasn't really enticing me to continue through the game. I put about 10-12 hours into it. You play to earn enough points to buy cute little costumes for your "sackboy". There is some clever level design, but the movement is too slow.

It is unacceptable how the default controls make the cars absolutely undriveable on a wheel OR a gamepad. AFTER you Google (or YouTube) correct settings for your wheel or controller, THEN it becomes more interesting. The track design is impeccable, audio of each car is visceral. The singleplayer is customizable to your tastes however the "safety rating" mechanic for multiplayer needs fixing, the "safer" lobbies still will have dirty drivers. Play w/ friends is preferred.

Art, Its art. It's a Greek tragedy. The story is outlandish and maybe too far symbolic or metaphorical for most but for me and what I got out of it- I shed a couple tears by the "final" (or complete) ending. You don't need to play the prequel Replicant to enjoy but it is a 10% better experience story-wise if you do. AS A GAME, it also slaps- Bayonetta/DevilMayCry fans will heavily enjoy this.

There's a lot of content in varying quality. Lots of interesting tracks, fantasy and real, lots of car variety, fantasy and real. The sound design is impeccable, the weather effects are superb- being able to play the campaign in co-op with multiple friends AS WELL AS join multiplayer races MID-RACE by taking control of an A.I. is such a brilliant idea. The physics are not realistic at all BUT it's fun! The story mode is short but there is post-game content that will take many hours to beat.

It STILL terrifies me when the quarantine lights go off and the xenomorphs crawl out of the walls and vents to try and impale you with their blade hands. This game is really dark- both in a literal sense and a story sense. This game is NOT for everyone, people aren't killed they are ripped in half, chewed apart, exploded, they go crazy and commit suicide, guts and blood everywhere. To me I focused on how fun it was to shoot the infected apart- it's so satisfying to kill the monsters you used to be afraid of.

I'll be honest I never got to experience the original, but if we just look at this version- it still is an absolute masterpiece of a survival horror. I'm struggling to think of anything it does wrong. You fight all types of enemies with all types of weapons, you get scared, you laugh, you have to be precise and methodical in your approach to tackling objectives and exploring rooms. Its satisfying to play and even replay.

You should play this game at least once. It tells a compelling story and really shows off how the videogame medium can almost be a direct substitute for a modern movie or book. The combat feels perfectly weighted- especially chucking a big ice axe into some dude's head and then ripping it off said guy is VERY satisfying. It's perfectly violent but also wholesomely family friendly, an odd mix but it meshes well with the theme of the story. An epic tale! You should experience it.

This game kicked my butt!!! It was my first "Souls" game, so this might taint my view because what I understand about this title is although it looks like a PS5 game it still is mechanically a PS3 game. So, it handles clunky and has odd level design and balancing problems with certain boss fights. I did beat the whole game- I'm not sure it was worth it. If you're nostalgic to this get it otherwise I think you're better off playing the newer titles.

It's beautiful, its artsy, it has a wonderful soundtrack, but I got bored about 10-15 hours in. A lot of people will like the stealth missions but to me- there were too many. The approach was the exact same method. Sneak in, kill everyone, mission ends. Except maybe this one mission there are 1-2 more archers or guardsmen that block your path, or you cannot get caught once or a hostage dies. What I really enjoyed were the story elements between characters. It was written well- just too many repetitive side missions.

If you're into super in-depth RPG mechanics and dungeon crawling, you'll probably like this game. I'm very driven by a good story and I just can't get on board with this one. I don't necessarily care the people I come across. The only cool part of the game is the Lilith cutscenes which is a shame because they hint at a very good story. But the game takes far too long getting to the finale. Fun with friends for a while.

The gameplay was highly improved from Borderlands 2, but that's just not enough to keep me interested in this bland title. There are plenty of good FPS titles... this is an average FPS. But it is a good "looter-shooter", unfortunately this game's plot also isn't executed well. There are good ideas but there are also extremely unlikeable characters. The finale is anti-climactic, and the story "twists" aren't that interesting. The worlds are good, and this is good fun with friends for a short while, but you'll get bored quick.

I cried like a female dog at the end, I've never been so moved by a games story. This game has very good progression in its gameplay, its story, the way you develop relationships with the game's characters. I LOVE the music, absolute bangers. This game is funny, it's sad, its joyful, its degrading, its hopeful, its art. Not everyone will enjoy it's a 100+ hour game, but I sure did, I wanted more!

Going back and experiencing a core title in Persona history was a great experience. The music is funky, the characters are above average, the story is interesting enough. You run into a lot of the same style of enemies in the last 1/3, but the ending was satisfying. I like these games because of the limited time in-game. You can only do so much before the game ends, meaning its re-playable.

Totally lives up to the hype. Epic drama, intense action, heartwarming story, well-thought-out gameplay, creative bosses, hordes of lore. I think my only critique is the pacing. To level up efficiently you must do a lot of side quests, and I felt that some of the side quests weren't as executed as well as I'd like and are forgettable. For some reason, I don't see myself replaying the game, most of the magic is in how the story is revealed.

This game is all about story so let's just look at that. I came into this with an open mind, I heard about the "wokeness" of the game. I'm not bothered if someone is gay, but this game felt a little preachy about it. I wouldn't say the characters aren't written well, but in a post-apocalyptic world they seem highly unrealistic which breaks the immersion. It's not the worst story in the world but it's nothing groundbreaking.

I grew up with this game as a kid and absolutely beat the game. Except that was a lie, that was what I thought I remembered because when I loaded the game up, I didn't even start the Tournament mode (racing only), and really, I only made progress in Hot Pursuit mode (the cops) and really that summarizes the experience. Except the game controls sloppy, its unresponsive, the framerate dips, the tracks are too dark AND you can't turn up the brightness. FRANKLY, the PS2 version being SO much better just go emulate it on PC if you don't have a PS2. I wouldn't recommend the Gamecube version today, even with its stellar OST.

I'm torn, I want to give this game a high score, BUT as a single player experience this game just doesn't capture my attention as much as "City Trial" mode in 4-player multiplayer. In 2024 unfortunately, couch multiplayer just isn't as popular anymore ladies and gents. I'm sorry. So, it's a 6/10, BUT if you know some mad lads that have never tried this games multiplayer by all means it's worth the price of admission.

Persona 3 Reload and Persona 5 were better stories, funnier, better atmosphere, and better writing. They tried going for a unique art style and fantasy setting but failed to capture me, even with the incredible plot twists they never got enough momentum before I was begging for this game to finally end just to be slammed to the defeat screen over and over because of awful pacing and balancing at the end. I DONT LIKE TO GRIND!!! But it's the best combat in any Atlus game so on one hand it's a good game but fails as a story. Oh and the music is very very good (I beat the game in 92 hours)

The best horror shooter on the market period. Super replayable. Finely developed. Its spooky. It's got good progression. Player decision is top priority it's up to you to make tough decisions in order to survive, but the secret is no matter what you do you'll still progress the game. Sure, it's a Resident Evil game so it is a little campy but that's just its charm. It's a great shooter and an even better horror game. Play it.

This is peak Metal Gear Solid. The most creative stealth shooter I've ever played. Its innovative. It's rewarding. Its strategic. It's over the top. It's just fun. Play it.

Where this game exceeds is its unique "Evolution" mode. You essentially start the single player in the year 1950 and work your way up to the year 2000. You drive...EVERY Porsche ever made between those years. You drive in beautiful recreated European landscapes while driving one of the most legendary car automakers ever. It's definitely a harder game, its borderline a sim-cade. Don't let the fact its only Porsches fool you, it's a very involving racer. Play it.

It's one of those games that will leave you thinking about it for years. It's not a revolutionary FPS but it's a clever one. It tells an intellectual story; it makes you care about the characters. Its epic and its violent. The atmosphere of the world is unappareled maybe even by today's standards. Kevin Levine knocked it out of the park with this one.

Its 2024 and I beat the whole campaign, and I had a GREAT time. I even liked the cheesy story even when it went 180 degrees and became suddenly dark and "matrix"-like, that was a nice lil twist ;) yes...there are spoilers. I did get a chance back in the day to play this game in multiplayer. It was surprisingly in-depth and competitive. But even for single player use this game has a LOT for you to unlock, and a solid post-game. Enjoy! You found a hidden gem.

I grew up with this game, I love it to pieces, but. Sonic Adventure DX has been objectively obliterated by the passage of time, and this is a game that you should not buy, but it is one you should experience on YouTube. It's so bad its hilarious which is why you should watch a walkthrough. This game has an absolute UNIT of an OST. If your head isn't jamming out, you're just tone deaf. This game takes a lot of risks and is incredibly diverse in its gameplay. Unfortunately, NONE of it is executed well at all. Play Sonic Adventure 2 Battle if you want to experience a better alternative.

A total hidden Gem. Ok imagine Halo Wars but you can swap in between every unit and individually control it like a third person shooter. Badass. This game is multi-tasking at its peak. It's a silly game that will make you wanna finish the whole campaign. It is a short game however and the controls take a little getting used to. Having said that you should try it if you're into strategy or action shooter games.

Why don't people enjoy simple fun? You drive hot wheels cars, in a futuristic environment and while you're racing at 300mph you also fight to the death with weapons. What am I missing? Dis a good game.

2023 Take on the game. 9/10 Near perfect sim-cade. Gets you to love racing all over again I'm not going to do the comparison game between other forza motorsports I'm just going to talk about THIS game objectively based on the time it came out and how fun it is today. Cons -Money, if you want every car in this game.... good luck. I think you'll give up. OR maybe you're crazy like me and grind the game for hundreds of hours to afford that 60s Ferrari 250 GTO that costs 20 million credits. Hats off to you if you do it. -Difficulty, idk for me it's too easy, in this game the A.I. drive purely stock vehicles so it isn't hard until you get to the GT4, GT3, LMP cars. Thats when you have to actually try. I play a lot of Forza so maybe I'm just good :P -Unfortunately, you cannot buy the DLC for this game anymore. Which means if you have a vanilla copy you may be missing a decent amount of content, tracks and cars. I don't think Porsche is in the Vanilla game it came out as DLC, BUT there is RUF cars in the vanilla game so you will have Porsche based 911's so it's not all bad. And there is still a large collection of cars to choose from without the DLC. -You can still view online Leaderboard times, but I don't think it's possible to host online games. Local multiplayer is still fun. -Ummmm ya thats it PROS -Menu music. I'm sorry! It's so good I have to put it as the first point. I will literally sit in the menus for an hour just vibing I love it! -Car physics, it feels GREAT! Every car is unique, and it makes for an enticing way to experience cars in a realistic way. -Car sounds, cars sound amazing- especially for 2009 -Car quality and quantity, HUNDRED and HUNDREDS of superbly designed models. Gran Turismo 5 has NOTHING on this game when it came to visual quality of the cars. Not to mention EVERY car had an interior view. -Car customization, the game even rewards you for sticking to one brand by giving you discounts on upgrades. Not to mention every upgrade is branded. Meaning you don't just buy brakes you bought WILWOOD or BREMBO brakes. Those aren't just racing tires those are PIRELLI's. It adds more immersion to see the ACTUAL brands on your upgrades. It makes it feel like your car build is realistic and you could do it in real life. Finally, turning a **** into a track car is always addicting. -Tracks! Lots of racetracks, mostly real ones but a large selection of fantasy tracks that mimic real life circuits or roads and they are all fun to race on and look visually appealing even today. Some tracks are exclusive to this game. -Car variety, I challenge you to go through the car list and think of something thats missing. If you like muscle cars, sports cars, city commuters, luxury SUV's, gt racers, LMP, 90s touring cars, drift cars, historical racers, you name it. They got it. And it's a large list- I think something along 500+ cars. All customizable. -Long career mode. It will be a LONG time before you beat this game. It's got that Gran Turismo 4 length. There are soooooo many events and sooooo many cars to try and use to see which is best at each event. -Tuning, you might not care, but you can alter the dynamics of your car in a pretty realistic way. Camber, Spring Rates, Gear tuning, it's very nerdy but it's fun if you like getting into physics. Every car is important in this game. This is an era where Turn 10 really loved attention to detail. They loved cars and they loved their games they were making. This game doesn't feel rushed despite it releasing two years after the prequel. It feels great to play, amazingly even with the server's down on multiplayer I can still recommend this game. Even for people who have played other motorsports this is worth a visit. Spend some time here and you'll see what I mean. 9/10
