This was the first game I played on PS4, and my impressions of this platformer are rather mixed. On the one hand, it's a PS4 exclusive, but on the other, it's the same game that was released in 2013 on PlayStation Vita. Simply put, it's a remake **** that was released two years (!) earlier. I have no idea why they did this, except perhaps because the Vita was briefly abandoned, and to fill up the PS4's already meager library at the time, but oh well. This platformer is incredibly boring. Frankly, if the goal was to make a game "for kids," then kids simply wouldn't be interested in playing this. The story itself is boring, and the adventure is disjointed and vague. They pretend the player creates the adventure, but that's not true. We influence small details that don't reflect what's happening in the game itself; it's an illusion of richness. The graphics are certainly stylistically cool, but the soundtrack is disgusting and tasteless (in my opinion). The gameplay is very lazy and simple – no punishment for death, the level design is tailored to the Dual Shock 4 gamepad, but it's only fun for the first five minutes; after that, it just gets annoying, making you wish for proper controls. And the enemy combat – it was initially decent, but then the difficulty curve plummeted – no bosses, and the remaining 25% of the game is played without any combat at all, essentially a standard walking simulator. Actually, I would have given it an even lower rating for the crafting and appliqués required, which were enough for me in elementary school. It's genuinely interesting to interact with the gamepad's unique features, but alas, the idea never really took off. A passable game for a one-time playthrough.

I played this game not too long ago, and what can I say? It's the game about everything and nothing at the same time. Is it an immersive sim? Nope, but it tries to be one. Is it a first-person shooter? Nope, but it got some elements of it. Is it a beat-em-up? Nope, but it got some elements in it. As you can see, this game aims to be a unique adventure game, but it falls short of delivering a good experience in all aspects. Sure, the story is intriguing at first, but then you understand at some point that it's a total mess. First, we started as a Half-Life parody. Then it's like some anime, and at the end, a typical time-traveling mess. Like, there were several scriptwriters, and they all worked on different periods of game development. The biggest issue for me, that the game is taking too long and it's stretched out, but brings no new content in game design. But it's got 2 bosses on this entire long game, and one of them is a helicopter ( lol). To be honest, it's not the best Xbox exclusive out there, and I will never gonna touch this game again.

I expected anything but didn't think the result would be so good. This is an amazing platformer that takes its atmosphere and narrative. In addition to the amazing sound design, there is also a very interesting story. It's amazing how strong the narrative is in the game, about relationships and finding oneself, about inner fears and fighting them, about those who help us survive the most difficult moments in our lives, and all this was told to me in an indie platformer! I don’t see such a plot in many AAA games, therefore, I got the maximum pleasure from passing the game. P.S. - bonus levels here, it's something else fun. The game is made with talent, and caring, albeit with little crooked hands. I recommend it to all. Glory to Ukraine!

One of the worst games I've ever played. It's hard to even call it a walking simulator. This is in fact a very weak installation, which in fact is a very short 2D-3D cartoon without puzzles, which can be clicked on in an hour. If there was a good plot, I would forgive her the almost complete lack of gameplay, but the plot here is very mundane, banal, boring, and very badly presented (no spoilers, but the main character is a very vile egoist) I do not recommend it. Glory to Ukraine!

There really is nothing to discuss here. This is the simplest isometric twin-stick shooter, with small rogue light elements. Everything is done in a futuristic theme with robots, we have 4 ships to choose from, which have different main weapons. Of course, why would you do that if you could just make it detachable modules, but oh well. So this is a simple shooter. Nothing special, but nothing bad either. Done simply, few levels, enemies too. Yes, they are nice to destroy, but no more. There are only three bosses, there are also few levels, although there are many variations of levels, but they all feel the same. The idea is not bad, but the game as a whole feels mediocre and insipid. You can try, but only for fans of the genre and only if all other games have already been tried. Glory to Ukraine!

Despite the fact that I didn’t like the first part for the most part (for various reasons), the second one, although it caused ambiguous feelings, left quite a good impression. As for the plot, the game has a very good beginning and middle of the story, but towards the end, everything let us down a little. There are many holes in the plot, and there are 4 endings, but in fact, they are all the same with minimal differences. The weakness of the plot is also manifested in additional tasks that are not very interesting (although there are exceptions), and in additional activities that get boring very quickly. The gameplay itself seemed pleasant to me, but not without flaws. The music in the game is as unobtrusive as possible, but at the same time tasteless in my opinion. There are also a lot of glitches and bugs that directly affect some secondary quests and additional activities, as well as prevent you from collecting loot in some places, it's a little annoying. In all other respects - a good game, but not worth the money. Wait for the largest possible discount, and in a year or two you can take it. I recommend. Glory to Ukraine!

The main problem of the game, in my opinion, is its attempt not to be an independent cooperative zombie shooter (which in itself is not very relevant), but the fact that in an attempt to jump over your head and create a "Left 4 Dead killer," they did not succeed do. Despite the fact that the game has beautiful locations, the level design itself is very simple - it's a straight corridor without any branches, where everything happens strictly according to the same script, which greatly kills the variability. Shooting at enemies feels pretty bland, there are few unique enemies and they do not pose any particular danger, the plot in the game is from the category of nothing, there is only one company in the game and it is short. There are 3 additional acts, but each of them is sold separately (!), which is unacceptable with such a high price tag for the standard edition. By the way, online is dead and you can’t play in other modes except for the company, and in the story company, we couldn’t find anyone, especially with a friend. I do not recommend it to anyone. Glory to Ukraine!

Despite the good prospects of being a very good quest, this game is not good, or at least minimally acceptable to play. Yes, the atmosphere here is sustained very well, and the plot is even outstanding and interesting at first glance. But there are two things, one of which fundamentally breaks her perceptions. The first, and not the most important, is to leave one of my two native languages - Russian and Ukrainian. The game only has English and French. What is very unusual for quests, they used to be localized in more languages, given how much this genre is loved in my country. But the second problem is more serious. The game has very complex and almost illogical puzzles. And I decided on one of them was out of order, just by a random selection method, and it’s not clear what to do next. And so the whole game - it is clear that the game design was done very badly. One atmosphere and a good plot are not enough. I would hardly recommend this game to fans of quests. Glory to Ukraine!

I don't know what drugs it takes to enjoy this, but apparently, these people rather than game developer friends, are tasteless. But still, this game is terrible in my opinion. First of all, playing it is painful just due to the constant flickering on the screen, you can get an epilepsy seizure while you playing it, so it's not good for your health. But even if the game would is barely good enough to play, and just a very hollow shoot-em-up game with no taste or some interesting game innovations. There are much better games in this genre, trust me. Do not recommend it to anybody to play. Glory to Ukraine!

To be honest, this is a very mediocre cooperative game. It has more disadvantages than advantages. Minuses: - The game is very short, you can complete it in 2 hours, taking into account frequent deaths. - There is no language other than English in the game. Sadly, given the fact that there is a puzzle in which you are required to know English. I have them, but most of my acquaintances and friends do not. - Riddles are simple, few, and boring. The most difficult of them are solved by sorting. - No local co-op, only multiplayer. Pros: - There are few cooperative games, so you can go through them once. For one time, if you and a friend from another country or another city have nothing else to play. Glory to Ukraine!

Before giving my honest opinion on DW9, I would like to say something about Metacritic. Guys, I certainly understand everything, but you shouldn't take other players for idiots. If you have corrected the rating of the game, then everything is very clear on Steam, and honest reviews of other players cannot be erased there, so your trading activity will not hide the truth. And the truth is that DW9 is the smallest game in the entire main line. If there were questions to other parts (sometimes), and DW3 was just a masterpiece of its time among the created slashers, then DW9 is the sunset of the Dynasty and a very shameful one at that. There are a lot of elements in the game, and absolutely all of them are either broken, do not work as they should, or they do not save. Many with someone that the game is broken and has terrible optimization. Yes, it's true, but it's scary, not even that, but the fact that the graphics are at the level of a 2007 game, and that I can name a dozen games from 2007 that are better written than DW9. The animations are just terrible, the open world is empty and lifeless, like any graphic component. The music in the game is good, but not epic enough, as in rare parts. Many complain about the voice acting of features, they say, it is terrible, here I do not agree. Firstly, the game has 3 sound roads to choose from - English, Japanese and Chinese. Secondly, there are a lot of actors in the English voice acting, and their voices seemed organic to me. The problem is not in the voice but in the text. All the text in the game is written by mediocre graphomania who does not know how to script, from the word at all. The game still has a lot of problems, but the root problem is the gameplay. Destroying threats and secretions with them is dull, and few in number, they also cause their AI to be at a very low level, which is why you don’t get any pleasure from excretions with them. This is the end of the franchise, but I hope it's for the best. Glory to Ukraine!

This is a very good FPS, not in vain I have been waiting for it for a whole year. In general, I liked the game, but there are too many rough edges in it, it’s clear that they made a shooter for the first time. Despite the very bright graphics and excellent design of everything and everything, including the level design, the musical accompaniment is not always good. More precisely, it is good in everything except the battle with enemies. I don't know how they overlooked this moment, but playing against enemies sounds like a terrible cacophony. The plot in the game is not bad, but there are a lot of unnecessary and completely unnecessary dialogues, there is a classic drama from scratch, and the same empty resolution of this conflict, and a completely disappointing ending spoiled the impression quite well. But the most important thing is the artificial stretching of the gameplay for repeated exploration of locations, where the reward for this is insignificant and insignificant. Fights with enemies are mediocre, although the bosses are original and it was really interesting to fight against them. In general, I recommend the game, it is still a good story shooter, of which there are very few now. Play with Game Pass and buy later at 75% off. Glory to Ukraine!

This is a seemingly simple puzzle game where you need to combine the same numbers into one with a higher rank, thereby gaining points. There are a lot of similar games on mobile devices, so it’s a big mystery to me that such a game has been forgotten on a stationary console. But to be honest, I liked the game itself. In the story mode, each level gives you a certain task, which gives strains your brain convolutions, which is very good, but I would prefer to play such a game through XCloud, but I still recommend this game. Glory to Ukraine!

At first, for a very long time, I did not know what rating to put. On the one hand, the game seemed incredibly boring and unsuccessful to me. But on the other hand, if you look at this situation from a different angle, this is a very touching message to your parents and an expression of their respect and boundless love. Well, this is also the first review of the Xbox Series S, so we need to start on a good note. In fact, this is a 3D puzzle platformer made in a "paper" style, with cuttings from secret documents in the spirit of the mid-50s of the 20th century. The plot here is presented on behalf of a woman who suspects her parents of being Danish citizens in the secret service and is trying to get all sorts of information from them about it. The premise is interesting and would be great for a documentary semi-fiction book or amateur documentary, but making a game out of it? It came out very weak, in my opinion. The game has very inconvenient controls, and a meager filling of locations for details, the game is voiced in Danish and translated into this language, which is logical if the authors are from Denmark, but I don’t understand why, in addition to these languages, there are only Italian and English. A game with a deep story should be translated into 10-15 of the most popular languages ​​at least + Russian, taking into account the theme of the Cold War and a reference to Khrushchev himself, who spoke Russian in the game. All in all, it's a very clumsy project with a lot of flaws, but I'll give it the green light because it looks like a loving daughter made this game for her elderly parents. Glory to Ukraine!

To be honest, I've been waiting for this game since last year, and when its release was delayed until today, I was at a loss, to say the least. The developers said they postponed the game because they redid the entire gameplay from scratch. As for the atmosphere, yes, it is powerful. The game runs on XSS at a stable 60 fps, which is good news. Also in the game, there are very juicy sounds and a rare soundtrack, pumping up the atmosphere. This is where the pluses end. The first disadvantage is that the game is short. You can go through it in 3-5 hours, and there is no replay value at all. The second negative is the complete lack of a plot. We do not know what happened, what happens during the game and the ending of the game, to put it mildly, will disappoint you. This is what I said softly. In general, this ending is to be expected if you've watched anime like Dark Myth. The atmosphere is the same. Well, the third minus is the gameplay. He is primitive. It's just a walking simulator with almost no variability, with puzzles like "poke until it solves itself" and some combat, and the most scripted + most of the opponents will simply disappear forever if we step back a little. In general, you can get acquainted by subscription. Buy for the money that they ask for it - in no case. Glory to Ukraine!

There's not much to say here. The same as the second part, only without content. Online is practically dead, despite working servers and good graphics. It seems to me that this game is one big scam that sold the same game twice, only one had content, and this one was cut out. Overall, it was fun to play, but there is no plot, just a couple of weak rambling missions. And so is multiplayer. This game should for good go in a bundle with the second part, and not be sold separately. Recommended only with an EA subscription. Glory to Ukraine!

Very good and solid indie horror toy. To be honest, I sincerely searched for at least something in it for which I could rightly lower the rating, but I didn’t find it) This is good asymmetric horror, the spiritual successor to "The Ooze", the Sega Mega Drive exclusive, Only unlike its spiritual predecessor, here everything was done correctly and it was a pleasure for me to play the game. Good location design, atmospheric music, and a good balance between outright parasitic villainy and difficult battles with stronger opponents. We need more Metroidvania like this, I definitely recommend it. Glory to Ukraine!

To be honest, the game turned out to be not so bad, and such ratings from users on Metacritic are extremely unfair at the moment, but even calling this game ideal is not even a language. The company in the game is not required at all and is only needed to get acquainted with the many abilities of the game + a couple of heroes + a couple of space fighters. The story itself is extremely secondary and boring. It was especially humiliating to play as Luke Skywalker, who just cut down bugs, it's ridiculous. The arcade mode is downright dull, including the scenario, which is just for practice for multiplayer. The multiplayer is a little better, but looking at the general situation with class customization, one thing can be understood - the community lost, although it naively thought that it won. There are very few modes active online, there is an imbalance between the forces of Darkness and Light in favor of Darkness, there are few cards, and there is very little variety and tactics in battles. Microtransactions have not been removed from the game, there are two currencies, and cosmetics are not imported + there are no new updates and game support is at a minimum level. This is not a loss for EA, it is a loss for the community. Although I played for a couple of weeks, I'm fine. For once. Glory to Ukraine!

For a long time, I have not experienced such wonderful emotions as those that "Unravel" gave me. This is a puzzle platformer, executed extremely beautifully, with beautiful Swedish folk music and a very touching story of an elderly old woman. It's amazing how much love was invested in the creation of this game, but the developers did not join the gaming industry and left us, making another sequel. It's very sad when such talents come and go. The only thing that was a little annoying in the game itself was the difficulty jumping back and forth. The first two levels were great for learning and immersion, but the third level, in the swamp, is unrealistically difficult! And then ... again, the levels are easy, and in the end - very difficult, the battle with the blizzard and hide and seek from crazy crows was especially filled. But she had fun, in the end. I love this game very much and recommend it to everyone to get unusually kind and positive emotions. Glory to Ukraine!

I played the game on Game Pass, and honestly, it would be better if they added other, better horror games than this one. It's just a nightmare, I've never seen worse controls in games, and I've played a hundred hours of DayZ on Xbox Series S, so I know what I'm talking about. Right there, it's very bad. The gameplay is terrible, the most unintuitive and artificially complicated, everything is scripted, so it doesn’t scare (except for the first time), the technical side of the project is at a very weak level, there are no 60 frames at all, although why is a mystery, the game looks like the last century. Riddles are illogical, but running around the same empty corridors here in bulk. But the style of the game is not bad, but only in moments. I do not recommend. Glory to Ukraine!

It's amazing what a cult status this game, is and how badly Vasho is in it. As a horror - the game is very weak. The local "horrors" are rather not frightening, but wildly annoying. The game has a very weak plot, full of ambiguity and holes, of all possible languages ​​there is only one - English, which is not good, given that many notes are written extremely illegible. Visually, the game looks like your very first Unity work. In general, not too good, it’s a real problem with lighting, the light scatters like that, neither in real life nor in normal games, as it happens here. Well, the gameplay itself is the pinnacle of despondency - just a boring walking simulator, run, and collect something around the area, running away from Slender. This is tiring already in the first hour of the game, and you still have to suffer for 4 hours, at least. One of the worst experiences in this genre, do not recommend it. Glory to Ukraine!

I am always amazed by "profile" publications, which for some reason leave their reviews like ordinary users. And then, the game does not deserve such high ratings for one simple reason - it is a multiplayer isometric shooter in which there is a dead online. And playing with bots is extremely boring, because the mechanics of a la stealth with dark zones do not work, since the screen is solid, it is extremely difficult to notice yourself on it, and bots, of course, do not have such a problem. Yes, the game has stylish and cool music, but that's where the pluses end. There is no one to play with, training must be completed for all weapons ideally for gold for a while, which is extremely infuriating. I thought that they would not put challenges for a time in training in 2019, but apparently, I was wrong. The game is rubbish, I do not recommend it to anyone. Glory to Ukraine!

I don't remember such a bad first-person quest in a long time. At the beginning of the 2000s, there were a lot of such quests. Yes, there were bad ones, but there were many more good and even good ones. Now there are apparently no good ones, normal ones too, since the genre is not popular, but once a year a bad quest comes out, like this. The puzzles are primitive, the storytelling - well, you can complete the game in 5 minutes (!) if you know what you are doing. Do you know how I found out? There is an ending that can be obtained if you manage to get to a certain point in 5 minutes. All endings, except for the secret one, are full of tragedy and hopelessness, like in the game "Soma". The visual component is rough and primitive, the music is not bad and atmospheric, but it is difficult to enjoy it - the game is very short. I do not recommend. Glory to Ukraine!

Very boring and dull game. As for the walking simulator, the graphics are too terrible and there is almost nothing to look at. The characters are all silent, there are no subtitles, it is completely incomprehensible what is happening. One word - trash. Glory to Ukraine!

Let's start with the most important points regarding the Xbox Series S version: - The "Quick Resume" function does not work. - From localization only English, although 10 languages ​​are available in the Steam version. Now about the game in particular - a very bad horror about space from the first person. The plot and setting are very similar to "Dead Space". It wouldn't be a bad thing if it wasn't a FULL carbon copy of the first DS, right down to the cover of the game preview in the store. The game barely works, I had to restart the level a couple of times to pass it because the bugs were critical for passing. The soundtrack of the game is so-so, the character models of the game are also at a low level, as well as all the dialogues and the plot in general, which is very secondary and almost completely copies the DS. You can praise the game for the interesting design of the ship itself and the various cabins, but the game itself is too short to fully enjoy them. There were a couple of simple puzzles in the game and one impossible one without going through YouTube (because the numbers were not displayed due to terrible lighting in the game itself, because the optimization is very bad), battles with enemies range from very easy to unusually long (with giants), but extremely not needed, because these giants are easier to bypass, they cannot actually harm you, except for one, which, if you do not kill, you will not go further. In general, the impressions are very bad. The game is short, but the experience was extremely negative because almost everything in the game is poorly done. I do not recommend it. Glory to Ukraine!

Honestly, this is a very low-quality quest. Yes, he attracts with a unique visual style, but that's about it. The story here is divided into three episodes, one main and two short ones. But there is no solid narrative here, no dialogues, nothing. Just a set of screens that want to impress us with their grotesqueness, but leave behind only negative feelings. There are also two types of puzzles - either very simple or very illogical, where there is no logic in the solution. Just poke until it resolves itself. Also, the musical accompaniment is not very good, but at the same time there are no voiced dialogues, there are no dialogues at all even in the text. I don't recommend this game to anyone. Glory to Ukraine!

Dandy Ace is a small bagel from the Brazilian studio "Mad Mimic", which I even liked in general. But it has a number of shortcomings that spoil the game a little on repeated playthroughs. The graphic style in the game is pretty colorful, a bit rustic in the animations, but it will do. The game also has a pretty good soundtrack, but the problems begin in the gameplay. This is a roguelike that you need to complete 4 times on different difficulties, but there is no point in going through more than normal difficulty - you will collect 85% of all improvements for the first full playthrough. The rest will fall SO RARE that I've beaten the game 4(!) times and still haven't collected all the upgrades, simply because they don't want to fall. Also, if you pump all the improvements for a special currency (mirror shards), then they will simply accumulate in your pockets like scrap. They can neither be converted into gold nor can you buy strong cards with them. This is a gross miscalculation, like many little things in the game. Starting from the fact that the animations of the attacks of the enemies in the priority are higher than the animations of your dodges, and the fact that there are only 4 bosses in the game, which do not become stronger with increasing difficulty, they just deal more damage. There are many builds with weapons and accessories in the game, but it turned out, as always, that only 1 combination of trinkets is effective, and 2-3 combinations of combat cards. Overall, it's nice to play once, only take on a discount or with a Game Pass subscription. Glory to Ukraine!

That's what happens when you try to combine two genres and you can't do either. Making a dungeon crawler and a dating sim in one is a very ambitious idea, but one idea is not enough - you need a good implementation, and, alas, there is none here. Like a dungeon crawler - there are only two (!) dungeons, FOR THE ENTIRE GAME! Yes, they promised to add an update with three more partners and a third dungeon, but even if it were, this is negligible. Dungeons are simple, they have a total of only 3 (!!!) bosses, the simplest enemies, and the most boring mechanics. If there were, let's say, 20 such dungeons per game, then there would be no questions, otherwise ... It's very scarce. As for the dating part, that one is even worse. Let's be honest - most video game players are straight guys. Well, that's how it is with us gamers. That's the way most of us are. And when I, as such a guy, am given partners to choose from - 4 gay guys, one of whom considers me a beauty (!), One non-binary guy, one cat and only one girl, and so bi and for an open relationship ... Sorry, and who should I romance? For me, relationships, even in games, are serious, and this approach is not at all to my liking. The characters themselves are flat, as are their jokes. I haven't seen such uninteresting characters in games for a long time, especially in visual novels. Although the very idea of ​​​​romancing your weapon, with which you then go to the dungeon, is a good one but poorly executed. The only thing I can praise in the game is a pleasant visual style, albeit rustic, but pleasant, and a cool soundtrack, quite atmospheric. Everything else is rubbish, not worth your time. I do not recommend it. Glory to Ukraine!

Probably the worst zombie survival game I have ever played. It's even worse than DayZ. Terrible graphics part, the sounds in the game are so-so, but it is played in 30 frames - just awful. Nobody has optimized the game, and most likely never will. In principle, the same as Minecraft, from which all enemies were cut out, except for zombies, and all other activities, except for basic survival. Extremely boring and not a pleasant experience, I do not recommend it. Glory to Ukraine!

At first, the first third of the game evoked only positive feelings in me. Very beautiful visual, everything is atmospheric. A good soundtrack is here too, and even the plot seemed to be interesting - knowing oneself in an artistic inner journey. But after going through the game to the end, a slight residue of disappointment remained. The most important thing is, of course, the almost complete lack of gameplay. In fact, it's a very dull walking simulator that for some reason chose a 2D platformer as its shape, and added more visual novel elements that also do not work, because our choices in the dialogue wheel do not affect anything. The platforming itself is very weak and boring - there is no challenge for the player. The whole essence of an artistic escape into oneself is overcoming a creative crisis and a very hard struggle. And according to the plot - we are simply the best because we are the best .... and that's it, the end. I do not recommend buying, except through a Game Pass subscription to try. Glory to Ukraine!

Bleeding Edge has a lot of problems. And yes, the argument that it is allegedly "free" for Game Pass subscribers - the game still costs money, and given that it is from the Overwatch convoy and Team Fortress 2, then I evaluate them by those standards. There is practically no content in the game, you don’t want to hang in the game, there is no soul in it. There is also no role distribution in it - I always picked support Ziro Kul, or if he was taken, tankess Butercap, but somehow it turns out that I have 2 glanders in the team. Is always. In 4 vs 4 battles. Why in 2020 I can’t choose a role and a character at once and look for a game with this - it’s not clear to me. There are no cosmetics that you want to knock out, there are no rating games, interesting modes. There is nothing. But there is bad no-code and lags. First Ninja Theory fail in my memory. Hopefully the last one. The game is stillborn and will not stand the test of time. Glory to Ukraine!

This game gives me very mixed feelings. On the one hand - Yes, they did their best. If you are a fan of Ridley Scott's first Alien movie, then this game will not disappoint you. You get literally what you want - the authenticity of the film's universe, which was expanded (and skillfully), with great atmosphere, and sound design. But what's bad about the game is the gameplay itself. The artificial intelligence of our enemies (including someone else's) is very weak and predictable, and the plot is stupid - especially the ending. Plus, even now the game is being sold for fabulously expensive money with all the DLC. She's clearly not worth it. You can play at once if you are a fan of the first Alien movie. The rest can be passed. Glory to Ukraine!

One of the worst farming games I have ever seen. Crossing rough - like with farming like **** Valley was a very bad idea. The game has a terrible and unattractive visual and soundtrack, but also the gameplay is so fast, chaotic and chaotic that it is impossible to play adequately at all. The question is - why is this game so praised by everyone? My version is as follows - people played for 2 hours or less, did not understand anything, but decided to support the developer. And it needed to be sorted out. I do not recommend anyone to play this, not even with a Game Pass subscription. Glory to Ukraine!

This is a very good puzzle platformer! I did not find a single flaw, especially since it is distributed in Game Pass. This is more than a good deal. The game has a wonderful visual component and the atmosphere of such a construction site and an industrial city as a whole. Good soundtrack and I really like the gameplay. But I couldn't get through to the end, I'm getting bored. This game is great to play through XCloud, lying on the couch, or on a tablet or phone. You can’t play such games on the console for a long time, except for an hour a day. I recommend. Glory to Ukraine!

Despite the fact that the game looks very nice on the outside and it should be a very good royal battle (in the third match, I won the rating with my team, what can I hide), I can’t put a higher rating than this. This is a protest against such a monetization system. I believe that if the game has a monetization system similar to mobile games (donate for all things, two currencies, one of which is very much needed and needs to be bought for real money, and very large ones, I must say), then the developers and publishers do not have any moral right to demand payment for the purchase of the game, and even more so not to have 3 different types of publications, given that they do not work. You can still use the Game Pass, but I don't recommend buying it. Glory to Ukraine!

This game was a very big surprise for me. Indeed, the spirit and atmosphere of Zelda with the combat system of Dark Souls. A lot of it depends on the study of the world and the collection of the game manual, which is very creative, I have not seen this in any game. The very cool soundtrack and the visuals in the game are simply at the highest level, however, there are minor problems with the combat system. The hero is not very mobile, and often, boss battles are very difficult, not because the bosses are difficult, but because you don’t get into the timings as a game, and it’s forgiven the bosses, and the damage always goes through you. And the shield blocks damage only from one enemy, and from the other on the side, at least a couple of degrees - no. But it was not this that killed me in the game, but getting the second, true ending. The first one is false, but to get the second one, I can assure you that you will have to read and watch a lot of guides on YouTube. But it's worth it, although puzzles for superintelligent beings. I recommend in general, Glory to Ukraine!

Indie games have always been a source of new ideas and interesting gameplay solutions. Alas, UMURANGI GENERATION is a very cheap and low-quality craft. They promised an open world and the opportunity to be creative in this post-apocalyptic photography simulator, but in fact, the game is low-poly and ugly, the world is divided into levels with very small locations where you are required to take specific photos with specific objects on them. Also for a while, otherwise you will not receive a bonus. The only thing that is done well in the game is the soundtrack, but with general weakness in the gameplay and visual style of the game, this does not help. I do not recommend it. Glory to Ukraine!

Despite the very high degree of fun in the game, a lot of shocking moments (in a pleasant way), and the general lightness of the mood, the game goes very quickly. In less than 4 hours, I went through the game and knocked out all the achievements in it. There is an optimization to Series X / S, but this is more false than true. For the game goes to unstable 30 frames. And the game has very little content, and it is unreasonably expensive at the moment + has the audacity to sell DLC with a minimum of content at the cost of the game itself, and it is sold separately, you cannot buy the full version. You can play on the Game Pass in the evening, but only once, I do not recommend buying it. Glory to Ukraine!

One of those games, the release of which was waiting for a long time, but when it came out and I played it, I was extremely disappointed. On the one hand, everything looks very nice and the optimization did not let us down. But here's the plot and gameplay - complete darkness. Two friends, and the one for whom we play, and the one that the captain of the ship are boring and not at all interesting, the general plot of the game is dull, and the gameplay ... Well, we run, we routinely clean it from dirt, we fight with very rare opponents. Zero variety and dynamics. Of course, indie projects are good, especially when budgets go to optimization and graphics, but why do I need a game without good gameplay - I don't understand. I do not recommend it. Glory to Ukraine!

I remember there was a very strong hype around this game, but when I actually played it, only one disappointment remained. Yes, the Groundhog Day idea is interesting, and the first hour of the game was very interesting, but then everything went in cycles. There are no explanations of what actions in the game can work and what don't - it's all trial and error. The characters in the game are boring and uninteresting. Why was it necessary to invite celebrities to this business - no idea. The dialogues here are very idiotic, and the main character behaves like a weakling and an outright fool. I won't spoil the ending, but it doesn't make any sense. In fact, this is one more disappointment. And yes, one of the achievements can only be obtained at the beginning of the game, but you will not be able to do this, because the game simply cannot be started from the beginning. Here's a taco. I do not recommend it to anyone. Glory to Ukraine!

As a Sonic fan, how can I rate this game lower?) But seriously, this is the easiest, and at the same time, the strangest fighting game I have ever played. For its time, it was made very well, good music, a simple but effective combat system, the techniques of some characters counter the techniques of others. The arcade version is very fast, except for Metal Sonic. Terrible mini-boss, I hate him. There are working online servers, it's a pity no one else plays. By the way, in one playthrough, I knocked out 11 achievements out of 12, and knocked out the last one with my girlfriend in a versus battle. Glory to Ukraine!

The first snowboarding instance of Box turned out to be very outdated in fact, to be honest. A very annoying interface design, the musical range is very random pop-rock of the early 2000s, and most importantly, in addition to the fact that the notorious power and graphics of Boxing look weak here, to put it mildly, new mountains with tests open only when you gain a lot of points for freestyling. And taking into account the fact that the Persian is not pumped and always falls to the fifth point, somehow I don’t really want to replay the same section. I don't recommend it in general. Glory to Ukraine!

At first, I thought, like everyone else - a small shooter from a lonely Chinese developer who proved to the entire gaming industry that with a minimum of budget and features, you can make a good game. I bought the game, like everyone else - to play something like that and support the guy. In fact, he was deceived, like many others. The graphics are not outstanding, everything around is gray and dull. The game design itself is very weak - the heroine's abilities, just like the arsenal of weapons, do not match the arenas and opponents that are thrown at us. As a result, the experience gained from the battles here is meager. The sound design is also poor. But even this could be simple, if not for one BUT! This is a demo version, for which the developer is still asking for money. He promised that he would release a version of Infinite, with a full story and all, but the full version was only released on Steam. And all Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S players were ripped off. Very nasty experience, do not buy this game for money - if you do not want to pay money for demos in the future. Glory to Ukraine!

Surprisingly, the sequel was weaker than the original, in my opinion. Despite the fact that the cutscenes here are made just like games of the level of the mainline of the series, the graphics in the game itself are quite simple and not shiny at all + an epileptic seizure is possible, since very often the cutscenes are very torn. The company is very short, and as usual, we are given the opportunity to play only for representatives of one faction out of two (in the last part, the company was for one faction out of three) There are two more companies, but I do not know if it is possible to play for a new faction there or no - they are sold as separate DLC. It's just great, remember how you used to buy an RTS strategy as a child, and they're all the companies were available as you progressed through the game? So, forget it. I think that this is disrespectful to the players and at times worse than microtransactions. Compared to the first part, where all the content was included in one game, this is a step back. By subscription Game Pass - you can buy - I do not recommend. Glory to Ukraine!

This game was recently distributed around Gold, but it's more like a spit in the face, quite a full-fledged game. Perhaps, in those years when the game came out, it was a novelty - all sorts of cheap games for less than 5 bucks, which took place without fail, but complaints about them are not excluded - it's worth a penny. But the logic here is fundamentally wrong. City-building simulators are great, but simplifying everything to the level of a casual game is already an excess. Terrible graphics, disgusting game design, annoying music, and original gameplay, which is artificially complicated by very tight time limits - all this greatly spoiled the impression of the game. I have nothing against small and unpretentious toys, but they should be tastefully implemented and they should be pleasant to play with, the OUTPOST KALOKI X is unfortunately cheap and not worth my time. Glory to Ukraine!

This was the first game I played since buying an Xbox One S, and my first ever game in the Microsoft family back in 2019. I'm glad that it was both in the Game Pass subscription, and is now distributed by Gold. Despite the fact that the game is already 12 years old, the multiplayer is still alive, it’s not boring to play it, the races are dynamic, the tracks are varied and interesting, good game mechanics, and there are many modes in the single-player game, there is Navalny duck. What else is needed for happiness?) The only thing that is a pity is that there are no more such games, and Microsoft is not interested in such a thing, which is very unfortunate. Glory to Ukraine!

This is my first game in the MX VS ATV series, and most likely the last. Yes, at first it was interesting, we even managed to play with others along with other poor fellows (for other people of level 50 who have been playing this game since the day of release, I admit I can’t), but in the end - there’s absolutely nothing to do here. Yes, the music here is great and the game is graphically well preserved (even by public standards) but the lack of a career area and track variety feels very inferior + if your opponent breaks away from you at the beginning of the race - you have about 0% chance to catch up with your opponent even for 5 laps - experienced players do not get errors, and the design of those risks of the route that is here is not very good. Glory to Ukraine!

And they say there are no fake reviews. Judging by the dozens that were put up by people with the same comments in the same time period with the same nicknames, one can practically understand that the rating of the game is very high. In fact, this game is rubbish. My wife and I went through it completely, and we have never seen a more terrible cooperative game in our lives! A terrible camera that binds one player to another, and even after the death (!!!) of one of the players, the camera decides not to let the other player in for another 15-20 seconds, which entails the death of the second player, the continuations are limited to more than one player, but on all at once, passing without support with treatment does not make any sense, the weapon is weak, there is no balance. Despite the good sound design and voice acting, the game looks terrible graphically, from the character models to the entourage, despite the fact that the levels are quite atmospheric. The bosses in the game are original, but the overall game design of the game is monotonous, overly complicated, and ugly. I don't know how the game got such high ratings from critics and users. Either they took a bribe, or in 2002 there were very low-quality standards. The first part of the series is a clear failure. I'm scared to imagine a GameCube version. Glory to Ukraine!

To be honest, this is currently the weakest game in the mainline of the Halo series, and certainly not the best Xbox One exclusive to buy a console for. If we talk about a single company, then this is a very sad sight. The characters are very superficial and uninteresting, like the events in general, there are practically no interesting gameplay situations. Even in "Halo 4" there were more innovations than I saw here. No new enemies were added, except for the Promethean flying machine (a cross between the Wasp and the Banshee), and that's it. Very scarce. But God bless her, with a miserable company, the multiplayer is currently empty. In a regular rotation, no one plays the infection mode or the team siesta of large teams, for some reason the rating system is divided into many modes, of which ten-play only the most boring massacre. And the cherry on this slop cake is the conflict zone. No one plays in this mode, there are simply no players. This is a big disappointment, and 97 gigs were completely wasted. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone these days. Glory to Ukraine!

Perhaps, if you collect the collection as a whole, then this is the best thing that has happened to the Halo Series franchise in the entire history of its listening. This collection is the best example of how to start with old games in the series. You take all the old titles, the oldest of them - you improve them graphically and a bit in terms of gameplay, make live multiplayer in all parts, set the best price for the collection - and you're done! I can only cancel on my own behalf that none of the parts, with the exception of Halo 4, has been translated into Russian, even in text, which is very terrible for 2014, since I am comfortable reading in my native language, but after recent events, this, perhaps not very critical. On the contrary - in all games, the Russian language should be canceled in the main, and Ukrainian is introduced, but I think I personally will not live to see this moment) Glory to Ukraine!
