The dents I put in my wall while playing this prove just how fun it is.

This 15 Minute demo is better than the past 2 seasons of Doctor Who combined... But then again that's not saying much is it?

One of the best Film Tie-In games I've ever played. Enough said.

Don't think many people will be reading reviews here... Seeing as the game won't be available through steam until next year. But I thought I'd give my two cents anyway.
Metro Exodus is a truly a passion project from 4A games, you can tell they invested their hearts and souls into crafting the world of the Metro, and sure... Just like everything it's not perfect, but It's pretty damn close. The story had me on the edge of my seat the entire way through and Is full of heartfelt and touching moments. (The ending had me in tears. Which is pretty rare for me!) The gameplay, while on the surface looks and feels like your run of the mill FPS actually has a lot of nuance to it and can take quite a while to master. (Especially on the harder difficulties)
If you've never played Metro before I recommend you should play the originals before you tackle this masterpiece, and if you're a seasoned Metro dweller looking for more time in the world of Dmitry Glukhovsky I say don't hesitate, buy the game... Even if it means having to buy it on the Epic Store.
This is an experience that I will remember for years to come and hopefully will come back again and again to make more fond memories with Artyom and his Spartan friends.

If you like games that leave you thinking for a long time after completeing them. This is the game for you.

Wolfenstein 2 is great for those times you want to go out and do some good old fashion Nazi Killing

Prey is a refreshing break from the average shooter that we have come accustomed to. If you're looking for a game to bring you back to the early 90's or 2000's this is for you.
The open ended map is refreshing and the story is engaging.
8.5/10

I'm not usually a fan of horror games but this game has something for everyone. At times it can make you question you're own sanity all with a deeply claustrophibic atmosphere. The story is top notch, although the pacing can be a little annoying at times often making you feel like you're not making any progress what so ever. And the monsters are also more of a nuisance than an interesting game mechanic. The game would be better as a walking simulator like Firewatch rather than a horror game.
All in all it's a great game that I reccomend you play. Now, even years after completing it I'm still left pondering about this game, it embeds itself into you and certainly isn't a game you'll be forgetting about.
So yeah, give it a go. You won't be dissapointed.

As my first introduction to Call Of Duty, I'll admit. I was genuinly surprised! The game was great fun and kept me on edge the entire way through. Although I'll admit, some performance issues on my multi GPU setup did cause me issues. But in the end was defininitely worth playing. Kevin Spacey's performance is remarkable. Love to see him play the villain. Especially with what's going on in the media at the moment. Worth playing if you're new to the franchise and a fan of story driven FPS games.

Where do I start with the Half-Life franchise? It's fantastic... From the amazingly well thought out gameplay to the beautiful visuals that still hold up to this day it really is a masterpiece. What the game lacks in visual fidelity it certainly makes a comeback with its great story and its entertaining gameplay... Whether it's killing Combine Soldiers with toilets using the Gravity Gun or shooting down a Gunship using an RPG, the gameplay is satisfying.

Pro's:
Entertaining Gameplay.
Rich cast of characters.
Deep story.
Diverse gameplay.

Cons:
No Half-Life 3 yet
