Hey all, you know the deal...
The other thread hit over 1,000 posts and we have server issues when that shit happens so here she be, a fancy new mega thread.
Anyway, just a quick rundown.
Post anything and everything gaming in here. Console games, handheld/mobile games or PC.
Playing something you love or maybe hate? Find a hidden gem on Steam? Let us know via a review. Try to make sure you give a good rundown on it. Graphics, sound, storyline, overall gameplay and replayability. Let's keep it at a 1-10 scale.
Thanks to all that left me awesome rep comments/posts and even pm's thanking me for the many reviews I wrote.
Just an FYI, developers do read our comments in here I guess. CD Projekt Red (of Witcher 3) was one that stopped by.
Anyway, thanks all for your input and as always, no griefing. [Reply]

never heard of it or played it; haven't played it yet. anyone have thoughts on it?
Its totally worth fucking around with, and even modding if you are on PC. Lots of shenanigans to be had and just a good time for a while messing about and not even doing the story. [Reply]
Metroid Dread is a great game and a cool throwback to old school side scrollers. No easy mode so it felt like an accomplishment to finally get the last boss down. Took me a few hours and a few choice words but I finally got his ass. [Reply]

I would have been all over it for $40 or less. I can't justify dropping $60 for a sub 10 hour game, when we live in the age of Hollow Knight (this game is a god damn masterpiece) for $15 and 25 hours of gameplay. [Reply]

I知 usually with you but Metroid brings back so much nostalgia for me that I paid full price. I値l get more than my money痴 worth though because I値l play through it at least a few more times. [Reply]

Hell yeah, sorry I don't want to shit on your good time, and definitely want to play it. [Reply]

I need to check that game out. I got it free one month, but haven't played it yet. It is sitting in my library waiting for me to eventually play. [Reply]

If you are a fan of metroidvanias (Metroids and Castlevanias of the world), I honestly think it's the greatest of all time. It certainly isn't an easy game, and you'll have to get used to the lack of hand holding especially early on. Stick past the first hour or two and you'll be immensely rewarded. [Reply]

Play it! Play it NOW!! Goddamn masterpiece is putting it mildly. It is the best side-scroller ever, and up there in competition for best video game ever. The hype is real. Not hyperbole :-) [Reply]

Agreed. One of the best games ever and it really felt like an accomplishment when I beat it. Everything about it is truly great. [Reply]
