Another great gem of 2025 for gaming and again from an indie developer. You should have playee Hades already so this is the second must play games. Great story, great music, hundreds of hours full of fun.

Game is good in overall however you can understand the intentional things to make the game hard which results not in difficulty but boring. Besides Ori series this game is a tier 2 rogue-like platformer. No need to make everything as souls-like. I also found input reading and platform clipping mechanism bad.

Developed only by one person. Absolute time killer with very interesting play mechannics. Moddability is also a huge plus.

An absolute masterpiece from an indie studio. Great game mechanics, superb lore and hours to spend in front of the screen. This game is another huge middle finger raised against greedy AAA studios.

This game is a masterpiece and should be in game of the year nomination if it was released a little bit earlir. All the new mechanics, open world, new story, etc are absolutely magnificient.

This game's optimization is beyond horrible. Using an overclocked XFX 7900 XTX, Ryzen 7 5800X3D and 4x8GB of RAM and I am experiencing FPS drops to even 30fps from 144fps. Gaming on a 3440x1440 monitor and using latest, game specific AMD Radeon 23.10.1 drivers. Completely unplayable. Nobody can make me believe that they were unaware of this kind of terrible performance. This also explains why FPS is limited in multiplayer and maps are limited to optimized ones only. Great job.

Physics are mediocre. Graphics are good. AI difficulty is terrible and rubberbanding is ridicilous. I saw that my teammate to spin out intentionally on a long straight line just to compensate my 20 position gain. Tuning is limited. AI aggresiveness is also terrible. If they would drive like that probably half of the grid would be disqualified and/or banned. Even if you play on hard with almost all assist turned off you can easily put a 5% gap between you and second. This means you can easily win at first try which forces you to play again and again just for unlocking stage 2 upgrades to proceed in career.

An incredible FPS puzzle game. Simply a brain twister and mind blogger. Also only 1 yes only ONE person did this game. Can you imagine? Truly a masterpiece.

Absolutely one of the best puzzle FPS games. Storytelling is great. Graphics are awesome. Tons of easter eggs. Had fun playing and solving its puzzles. I can easily say that some puzzles are hard but not **** If you like this one also give it a go for Portal, Portal 2 and Antichamber.

Hands down it is a great time killer. I am thinking about to quit my marketing manager job just to open up a custom PC build shop. I am that much into it. Everyone loves to try different builds, try new layouts or simply to try your next build virtually in advance you have to give a chance to this game.

As the first Hot Pursuit game was a hit, its successor had to be that good too. It was not at that level but also was a definite worth to play title.

This game is something else. It was the explosion of Need For Speed after first two games. Way better graphics, yes. Tons of new vehicles, yes. Cop chase, yes. 1998 was something different.

Was not bad but not perfect either. When NFS2:SE is launched we all understand what is a graphics card support is. By the way even it was just colors, this NFS game has the first vehicle customization option :)

Fourth addition to the series when Need For Speed was a rising star in racing games history. Still cannot believe it has been almost 25 years since I started playing Need For Speed games.

Only play-worthy Need For Speed game in years after the era of Underground to Carbon. Was fun to play and physics were not **** Really felt the action fueled pursuit like it's 1998. Only with better graphics.

Need For Speed franchise tried simulation like racing for the first time. They understood that they need to try again to fail better.

At the beginning I was thinking that ProStreet will be a **** game but it turned to a fun and lovely game to spend hours on it. I recommend new players to try this one.

Imagine that one day you wake up and see this title. We were not aware what was coming to us. Starter of the golden era for Need For Speed. Wish I can turn back time to that days.

Incredible graphics. Porsche heritage. First time vehicle modification. Porsche driving academy. A magnificient game and probably in my Top5 Need For Speed games.

Another unnecessary released Need For Speed. Terrible physics. It would be better if it had never came out of undercover.

Another magnificient game from the golden era of Need For Speed. First time introduction of teammates with benefits :) Another masterpiece within the golden quartet of Need For Speed.

Great concept (really great) and beautiful graphics. However very short game and very much wasted opportunity.

This game has changed everything for the franchise. Exceptional level of tuning, even the speedometer on screen HUD. Wide varşety of selectible vehicles, even including SUV's. All kind of race types. Free roaming. Widely compatible with all accessories. This game is the reason that we have Forza Horizon franchise today.

Somewhat playable or let's say worth to spend some time but definitely nowhere near as a lock you in front of the screen like before.

No idea who gave internal approval to this game allowing it to be released. A should-have-never- existed game.

This game stands for an exact example of how a high action arcade racing game must be. One of the best 4 games of Need For Speed franchise and number 2 for me.

Only play-worthy Need For Speed game in years after the era of Underground to Carbon. Was fun to play and physics were not **** Really felt the action fueled pursuit like it's 1998.

After playing this Need For Speed title, I was thinking that was I the one they were so angry and after to get a payback. Shame.

As a long time gamer I can easily say this is a Need For Speed you will be playing just not to say I didn't play. Again another **** arcade.

For god's sake please stop publishing new Need For Speed. Let this franchise live in our memories please. Even Criterion gave us a **** third quality action. Need For Underground with new graphics and animated cutscene can eat this game alive.

Even though I was not a huge of this game genre at that time, it made me to spend significant hours on it. Definite recommendation to retro lovers.

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

For me it is a decent FPS shooter but really got bored with repetitive enemy attacks. Puzzles are very easy and save point dynamic is just crap. Platform mechanics are terrible. I almost fall a sleep in the first 45 minutes of watchplay (not game play). However great graphics and successful weapon upgrade/craft system. Great potential to turn it into a franchise.

I was quite worried that third game would be burdened under the success of second game but it hit me like a slap.

Lacks of the tastte that other games gives in THPS franchise. Expected better was not totally disappointed. BMX was cool :)

This was another game from THPS franchise that would make you sit and play for hours without noticing it.

Another great and tasteful game from THPS franchise. Graphics would be better but it was still a quite fun.

"Here I am, doing everything I can, pretending I'm a Superman"... Wow, I was not aware of any skater's name in the world when I was 14 and now at 36 I still watch Tony Hawk, Rodney Mullen, etc. Thank you!

Not only for year 2000, maybe one of the best games of 21st century. A definitive example of how a hack & slash ARPG shall be. All I can say is this game gave me first carpal tunnel syndrome when I was 14 in summer of 2000.

Please all hail before the mighty Diablo franchise. This game created a term for average gamer: "Diablo like". Possibly ancestor of hack and slash ARPG.

The first two games was out of this world and I was expecting same for this final one. It was not bad. It was far from bad but the first two game set the bar too high so third one couldn't jump over it. In any case, a must to play in the trilogy.

This is not a game. It is a masterpiece of digital art. Incredible story + fun + great game dynamics + not so bad graphics. Probably this game changed my perspective for point & click adventures. A must try for everyone.

It was like skimming of Quake 3 Arena. I cannot say it improves too much over main game.

This is where I stopped to play Army Men. Maybe I was starting to get bored from same concept maybe this was not better as previous games. It may be worth to give a try but not a must recommendation for me.

3DO was adding to the reperoir with this game. More focusing on air vehicles and abolute fun source.

I think it is quite safe to say that this game was a great successor to its first. I recommend retro gamers to give it a try.

This one is from my very early stage gaming life. I have no idea how many hours I spent and how long was a session. It was quite challenging for me at that times but even though I enjoyed it. A must try for retro gaming lovers.

On the red corner Quake III Arena, on the blue corner Unreal Tournament. Clash of titans...

Not thrilling and entertaining as the first game but still a good one for me.

Excellent FPS game and excellent experience. Still worth to play after 20+ years.
