A copy and paste of the first game with a few minor tweaks and adjustments. I would give this a mixed review but the cons outweigh the pros.

This game has and still does have potential to be something more with an existing foundation that works well and does its job. But overall feels like it lacks soul and passion, the race tracks are repetitive and boring with no real sense of enjoyment or adventure. The obstacles are the same as before, the waypoint races are abysmal due to lack of direction and everything is just mediocre because it offers nothing new in comparison.

The career map features tropical jungles, huge cities, deserts, snowy mountains and suburban towns BUT, hardly any of these themes are actually present in the tracks themselves. instead we are offered with an ugly gas station, a lifeless dinosaur museum, a basic back yard with a little interior, a colourful arcade and a mini golf course. None of which fully incorporate their features to their potential, even in terms of what appear to look like shortcuts that aren't actually shortcuts.

Adding something as simple as more variety in themes, for instance driving through tubes under water or through icy glaciers and volcanoes. Implement time and weather features, imagine how awesome driving a lit up track in the night would feel? Let's go a step further, add in some rain as a difficulty tweak.

The bosses aren't even bosses, just a race track that require you to drive through a set number of targets and that's IT! Instead why not make the boss a 1v1? The winner gets their car as a prize and it makes winning feel rewarding by earning something exclusive and special instead of some XP and a race track part... Making progress feels boring, sluggish and underwhelming even with the AI set to extreme difficulty, there's no sense of competition.

If you own the first game, I wouldn't recommend getting this one. If it's your first time playing I would suggest this game with a pinch of salt.

This game was once incredible, but has long since felt abandoned and forgotten in preparation for KF3. No new content has been released in a while and the servers are unstable, item servers are inconsistent and basically restricts access to content that should be readily available regardless of the servers status.

Multiplayer is nearly unplayable because custom lobbies are almost impossible to host with friends as you are more than often forced into a preexisting lobby that is hosted in a completely different region, forcing you to play with over 100+ ping most of the time.

The workshop maps are incredible, they definitely add to the replay value but unfortunately can only mostly be played in solo offline mode because hosting them is impossible and the same applies for trying to find them in the server list.

The "Ultimate Edition Upgrade DLC" also doesn't work during the time of this review and so none of the content advertised in that DLC is available/unlocked in the game.

Watching the game change over the years and hardly seeing improvements is unfortunate for such an enjoyable premise. The community is arguably the most toxic out of any I've seen, and the cheater/hacker problem isn't being solved any time soon.

The game itself is incredibly fun, but most of my hours are from playing the Bloodweb minigame. Progression doesn't feel rewarding and events are lacking in content. Generally the only time I was excited was during the Silent Hill release update and that was a few years ago.

With all of that being said, I would still suggest this game since although survivors have a lot of options, loops, pallets etc. You get to play as a nurse that can teleport and finish games quicker than it takes to find one.

BBQ & Chilli is obviously the main reason to buy the killer, however the other two perks: Franklin's Demise and Knock out, can also be viable. I would however say that Knock Out can be rendered as useless if the survivors are SWF.

Bubba himself is an enjoyable killer with his anti-pallet chainsaw and easy dying states. The chainsaw can also hit multiple survivors in one charge, making it perfect for the basement or multiple people at the gate. It is also very difficult to miss unless the survivors use sprint perks or are able to successfully confuse you with 360's.

If you use or main the Hillbilly, I would recommend this killer even more since although he lacks the speed, he can beat chases and loops far more effectively.

For the price of the DLC, I'd certainly recommend buying it (or maybe just wait for the Steam Sale).

Dark Souls 3 was different to what I had first anticipated. Although the game wasn't as difficult as I had expected it to be, it did prove to be a new type of challenging experience. The New Game Plus feature is fantastic as it increases the difficulty every time you complete the game, always making the game more difficult. Dark Souls 3 has fantastic replay value because it's addictive, challenging, and beautiful.

From my experience of completing the first run, the game takes longer than the average game to complete because it contains a large amount of content and exploration.

I would recommend either playing this game offline or only with friendly phantoms enabled due to there still being cheaters in PvP. I have experienced players that have had minigun crossbows that fire hundreds of explosive arrows per second, super speed, and are invincible.

Dark Souls 3 is a fantastic RPG and I would highly recommend buying this game. The DLC's are a great addition to the game, however they're very short for the price. If you want the full experience, wait for a Steam sale.

Praise the Sun!

This game was originally free when first released, however the small price for this game is entirely justified as there is access to additional content through the Steam Workshop and the release of a free DLC containing additional maps and vehicles.

The developers created this game as a passion project and they intend to keep updating and improving the game with even more content.

The gameplay itself is very smooth and easy to learn. However, I highly recommend using a controller because using a keyboard is far more difficult to play this game with. The soundtrack is fantastic and it really puts the whole game together.

If you've ever played Wipeout on the Playstation, this game is essentially that but with online multiplayer, improved graphics, and mods. I would highly recommend playing this game.

Let It Die is a high-risk high-reward, hack and slash, set in the post-apocalypse. As a fighter, your objective is to struggle and contend floor by floor up the tower of barbs obtaining various types of weapons and armour in a quest to reach the top of the tower. For every 10 floors there is a Don that represents each 4 factions within the tower that all have their own unique gear.

The game has involved a consistent and smooth frame rate even on ultra settings, no graphical or technical problems and the experience has been satisfying. Microtransactions aren't necessary to revive your character because you can just recover your character back with in-game money for a reasonable price. The premium currency (Death Metal) so far has only seen a few uses and that was for increased storage. You can also obtain the premium currency with methods other than just buying them with real money such as completing challenges, taking part in TDM (Tokyo Death Metro), and sometimes you are rewarded them as a daily reward so you aren't restricted to methods of obtaining them.

After "completing" the game or defeating the fourth and final Don of the tower, the game becomes extremely grindy. You unlock the Battle To The Top feature, adding an "endless" amount of floors containing exceedingly high level enemies with some of the strongest gear that exists in the game. However the rarest and strongest crafting materials are also contained there necessary to max out your gear.

The game is free so there's nothing to lose if you play it. I also highly recommend you play this game using a controller (This game originally released on the PS4).

The AI is so poorly designed that they have a habit of crashing into you which can devastate 10-20 minutes of a race, forcing you to retry and have it happen again.

The penalty system can be easily exploited such as being able to cut corners which should have been penalised but don't, allowing the player to gain an easy lead.

Winning doesn't feel rewarding enough and so there's really no reason to play this if there is nothing worth achieving. The game is a broken mess and there is definitely better racing games out there to play. I would not recommend playing this game at all.

For being almost 6 years old now, it still holds up pretty well as a video capture and editing application. Unfortunatley the software is out of date and therefore the models available, including maps and such are far from up to date so you will have to put it into your own hands to import them or download them from the Steam Workshop.

The features available can vary to suit the most experienced programmers and the new ones such as the option to use pre-made model poses or animations for beginners, to being able to position the models and create animations yourself.

Although out of date, the software can still allow for making impressive posters and animations. Source Filmmaker is free so i'd recommend trying it out.

If you have ever played Left 4 Dead, and like survival horror, you'll certainly enjoy this game. No More Room in Hell requires high resource management, improvisation, teamwork, and puzzle solving skills. You can either survive solo or as a team to escape the zombie infected streets.

Players have a chance to become infected with the virus and have to find medication to slow down the rate of infection before it's too late. This mechanic adds urgency and difficulty in creating decisions to escape alive.

When playing online there is an equal chance of toxic behaviour and friendly behaviour in the community. Some players will attempt to kill you to steal your equipment even though you have to survive together whilst others will be generous and give their gear if you need it.

l highly recommend playing this game if you enjoy survival horror.
