Just when I thought this game had it's way with me, I'm back for more.

Although the always online aspect can be quite a nuisance, I'd say this game is an absolute masterpiece even in it's flawed state.

The open-world format of the game may be a bit generic to some, but there are many (many) unique elements, some borrowed from MGS games past (i.e. Portable Ops Plus/Peacewalker) that keep it fresh, entertaining and interesting. The game encourages tactical stealth gameplay but gives the player freedom to tackle combat situations in a variety of different ways. Although some found the story lackluster, I absolutely loved it.

Cannot reccomend this game enough.

This is not worth the $35 pricetag and is just a lackluster remaster in general. All this remastered version is is an HD reskin. There is NO added content (
besides PAID DLC, WTF?
), you can still abuse all the same bugs and view all the same visual glitches and there was very little effort put into updating the controls and UI (or bringing seemless map transistioning or something similar, in which case there seems to have been no attempt made whatsoever).

I bought this day 1 for the Xbox 360 and am just as dissapointed with the PC version if not moreso. The modding tools are also a joke compared to the community based one made for the original.

Fable TLC will forever remain my personal favorite game of all time due to it's signifigance in my teenage gaming days and fun gameplay, but ♥♥♥♥ Lionhead studios and ♥♥♥♥ jewaneux. I still am recovering from how absolutely trash Fable III was and they go and ♥♥♥♥ up the remaster of my favorite game of all time?

Please do not purchase this full price, I reccomend waiting for a sale (~$8) or better yet just playing the original.

p.s. Did I mention they added PAID DLC THAT ONLY CONTAINS COSMETIC ITEMS? LITERALLY THE ONLY CONTENT THEY ADDED TO THIS TRASHY QUARTER-ASSED RE-"MASTER" EDITION???

Back then: Best FPS multiplayer of all time (my favorite at least), definite buy

Now: The only servers that are left are ♥♥♥♥ and dlc's aren't bundled, so unless you want to overpay for zombies stay away

So far, this has everything the original title offered but in a much more refined and PC friendly environment. I played the first Zombie Estate on 360 with a buddy quite a lot while zoning out to music, and the sequel has implemented enough features and changes for this game to be both entertaining and challenging (although I feel the amount of chars. plus stats mixed with there being very little text present without use of context menus makes things a bit convuluted and chaotic at times). All in all, the load of content added to this sequel makes for a much more replayable and fun title. Tons of weapons, 4-5 maps, hats for stats, several zombo types and more.

This is more than a fine purchase at the asking price of $5, and would honestly say it's a bit underpriced for the content you get (which includes local co-op, which in my mind is a magnificent feature to have been maintined in the games transistion to PC).

If you enjoy killing multiple types of zombies wave-to-wave with a variety of unique weapons and need to something to play with a buddy, this is it.

Really fun game. Great FPS with very fun and exciting gunplay, and a decent overall levelling and loot system that keeps things new and interesting for a while. Played on consoles as well as PC. I'm just not too fond of a lot of the humour or the boring and very uninteresting plotline. The jokes are pretty cringe and annoying and I really just enjoy shooting things and leveling up/getting loot. I had to mute the voices actually, the only other game I've had to do that with was Call of Juarez: Gunslinger (also another excellent shooter). Don't purchase w/o DLC as that is where most of the hours come from.

Overall, buy this if you are a thorough FPS fan looking for good shooty shooty bang bang gameplay but not necessarily an engaging RPG with interesting story/characters.

Very well optimized as well, running on a Lenovo W530 laptop.

Removed CS:GO entirely without replacing CS:GO entirely. Too much graphics not enough CS.

Poly Bridge: An Insidious Push for Polyamory?

I recently played Poly Bridge, a game that, on the surface, seems like a lighthearted puzzle experience focused on bridge-building. However, upon deeper reflection, I couldn't shake the feeling that the game subtly promotes polyamorous relationships, and it left me feeling uneasy about its underlying messages.

At first glance, the mechanics are engaging, and the physics are impressive. But as you progress through the levels, it becomes increasingly clear that the game uses its charming aesthetics and playful challenges to mask a more insidious agenda. The title itself, "Poly Bridge," is a clever play on words, evoking not only the idea of multiple bridges but also hinting at polyamory—a relationship style that has gained popularity in certain circles.

The game’s design choices reinforce this theme. Players are often required to create connections between disparate points, much like the emotional entanglements found in polyamorous relationships. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for forming bonds with multiple partners, suggesting that complexity and chaos can lead to beauty. Is this truly just a fun puzzle game, or is it an attempt to normalize and glorify polyamory?

Furthermore, the lack of any traditional relationship dynamics within the game feels intentionally one-sided. There’s no emphasis on single, stable connections. Instead, the focus is on collaboration between multiple elements to achieve a goal. This might be interpreted as an encouragement to explore non-traditional relationships, subtly influencing players to rethink their views on love and partnership.

In conclusion, while Poly Bridge may be a fun and visually appealing game, I can't help but feel that it is more than just a puzzle experience. It seems to be pushing an agenda that normalizes polyamory under the guise of entertainment. For those of us who value traditional relationship structures, this game can feel like a disorienting experience that challenges our beliefs. I urge potential players to approach with caution and consider the messages being conveyed behind the colorful graphics and engaging gameplay.

I liked the part where you could run over people in Nice.
