This is the perfect game to sit down with on a weekend. The story is interesting. The graphics are stunning. I finished this in 4 hours, but didn't find everything there was to find. Still, it's short enough to go through in one sitting but long enough to be satisfying. For the most part it is an open world and you are free to explore or get straight to the story. Either way, this is the kind of game that you will want to take your time with to enjoy the scenery and the sounds of nature. Get some over ear headphones on, pick up a controller, and sit back and relax. You will frequently have to descend/ascend the mountain and climb up/down small ledges and the animations and speed of these actions are a little slow so it almost forces you somewhat to take it slow anyway. I listened to the soundtrack long before I actually played this game and really enjoyed it, so experiencing it with the atmosphere and how it ties in to the game so well was really nice. I love it even more.

This game is most certainly worth a few dollars when on sale. I haven't fully explored all the different missions and all it has to offer, but I can say that it is a well-made game. I love the environment, especially during the main story campaign when it's dark and raining. It's enough of a challenge to sit down and play something relatively short and work toward unlocking some achievements. There isn't much of a long-term commitment because of it's length.

Purchase this through the Game of the Year bundle. It is worth it. It is a very interesting puzzle that is worth it. I never encountered any issues with this game or any of its DLC so I can't relate to the negative reviews.

The Turing Test is an excellent game and 100% worth what I paid for it. The graphics and soundtrack are excellent. Put on some over-ear headphones are surround yourself in this game. I don't use a controller all the time, but this game works really great with one. The story is very interesting, and one that you want to follow through with to the end. The game overall is captivating, and though sometimes frusterating, is something that you want to finish. The puzzles are simply briliant. Sometimes the simplest ones are the most difficult. Just think outside of the box.

Overall, this was one of my most favorite purchases here on Steam. Amazing graphics and soundtrack. The game played the best parts of the soundtrack during moments like walking through crew quarters, times where there was just story and some slow walking.

I still do not understand all of the negativity surrounding this game. While this WAS in fact a step backward, I found Ghosts to be a good game overall. The story is alright, but It is very familiar to the Modern Warfare Trilogy in terms of look and feel. I personally am not at all into the whole zombie thing that Treyarch is famous for in WoW and Black Ops, so this is another reason why I enjoy this game. The Extinction mode is fund and challenging, though I have yet to explore it further as I only own the first DLC.

I cannot justify purchasing this for any lower than, say $10-20. I purchased the Gold Edition for $9.99 which was a steal. I also cannot comment on the multiplayer, whether or not it is still alive or not. I haven't really played it much. I enjoyed playing through the campaign, which has some of my favorite missions in the Call of Duty franchise. Taking out the oil rig and when you are controlling the tank (I forget what all the missions are called) are two that come to mind. Maybe I like it because it doesn't feel just like a Call of Duty game, but a mix of Battlefield as well. I find Battlefield to be far superior in quality when compared to the most recent Call of Duty releases. This could have been another reason why some hated it. And then we come to the whole "ghost" thing, which everyone has already heard of before.

I enjoyed this game, and while some may hate it, I recommend relying on your own preferences/instinct when it comes to deciding to buy this or not. I highly discourage completely blanking this out because of what you have heard. I also would discourage paying the unreasonable full price for this. If you are interested, I would search/wait for a deal.

I am not a big fan of the whole Hitman series, nor have I played any. I got this for around $4, which is something I couldn't pass up. I played through the campaign and thought that it was excellent. My reasoning behind not liking the idea of the Hitman series is the whole hitman thing. I do not necessarily like to go out and kill a bunch of people in a game, but prefer a strong, story-driven experience. This gave me that. The story was excellent, the length was just right, and the maps provided so many opportunities. I have not yet reached 100% completion yet, but I plan to.

I tend to be far behind in the game world, getting into them 2-3 years or so after their release, mostly because I am late at becoming a gamer. Regardless, I still enjoyed this game and hope to explore all its numerous features.

I honestly was not sure whether or not to get this game. When I saw that it went on sale, I could not help but purchase it. Firstly, I will find it hard to play other games without my superpowers, unlimited ammo, no fall damage, etc. This game is awesome! While there are some innapropriate themes in here, I would not recommend this for a younger audience.

In any case, it was a blast going through the game. I cannot believe how much time I put into this game. Since this is my first Saints Row game I have played, I am not sure about the whole story surrounding the Saints, but oh well. It is still fun. A great game to play for those times when you just want to sit down and blow everything up. You are really overpowered in this game. At times it is too easy, but there are enough challenging aspects of it to make you work a little.

Ther is much good that can be said about this game, but I would not recommend purchasing this title unless you are not into the whole online multiplayer thing. Every time I try to connnect, I always receive a message stating that there are no games available. I have re-installed this without the DLC map packs and get the same message. I would recommend this for console only. Apparently there is either not very many players or a big problem in the servers for the PC version.
