I truly don't understand why Konami hasn't made a 3rd game but at least we have this on Steam. I see multiple negative reviews saying they have issues that I haven't once run into myself. The game runs beautifully and looks great.

Solid 9/10 that I highly recommend to everyone.

During the free trial I have played 18 hours over a day and a half. If that's not enough to convince you to at least try the game I don't know what to say. Solid 9/10 with amazing developers that have created a gem of a game. If this games not your thing then all I have to offer is my cookie recipe. Every game is better with cookies.

The best chocolate chip cookies you will ever have.

Ingredients
150g salted butter, softened
80g light brown muscovado sugar
80g granulated sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg
225g plain flour
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
¼ tsp salt
200g plain chocolate chips or chunks
Method
STEP 1
Heat the oven to 190C/fan170C/gas 5 and line two baking sheets with non-stick baking paper.

STEP 2
Put 150g softened salted butter, 80g light brown muscovado sugar and 80g granulated sugar into a bowl and beat until creamy.

STEP 3
Beat in 2 tsp vanilla extract and 1 large egg.

STEP 4
Sift 225g plain flour, ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda and ¼ tsp salt into the bowl and mix it in with a wooden spoon.

STEP 5
Add 200g plain chocolate chips or chunks and stir well.

STEP 6
Use a teaspoon to make small scoops of the mixture, spacing them well apart on the baking trays. This mixture should make about 30 cookies.

STEP 7
Bake for 8–10 mins until they are light brown on the edges and still slightly soft in the centre if you press them.

STEP 8
Leave on the tray for a couple of mins to set and then lift onto a cooling rack.

Now you have some epic cookies to go along with this epic game. Let's be honest, we all know vampires survive off cookies not blood but somewhere along the way the blood thing came into play.

Forza Horizon 4 will be delisted from all digital platforms on December 15, 2024. None of the multiplayer functionalities will be disabled for the players that already own the game.

Ignore my time played on Steam. I have put over 1000 hours into this game over 5 years on Xbox.

Do yourself a favour and get the ultimate edition well it's on sale before it's gone forever.

An amazing game overall. If you enjoyed Baldurs Gate you will probably enjoy this. With that said I unfortunately can't recommend this game at this point. With the latest update they have changed the EULA.

It reads:
"The User hereby agrees that Owlcat Games may collect, store for as long as the User is using the Software and not more than 1 year thereafter, and otherwise process information on the Software being used by the User, such as Device and IP address, platform, and operating system version, Device model, timestamp of the Software usage, Software version and ID number, information concerning the hardware and software installed on the User's Device, and any other anonymous technical and statistical information, which Owlcat Games requires in order to identify and eliminate problems with the operation of the Software, to improve the Software, and for marketing purposes. Moreover, Owlcat Games may process and store anonymous information gathered by means of the Software usage outlined above for an indefinite term.

Thereby, the User hereby agrees that Owlcat Games has the right to upload software program files to User's Device, that will record CPU, RAM, operating system, video card, sound card, software and application of the other developers, peripherals, geolocation and any other anonymous technical and statistical information from User's computer. The User also agrees that Owlcat shall have the right to transfer the said anonymous information to its subcontractors, performing Game development, and vendors providing services necessary for operation of the Game."

If your cool with that the game is worth picking up but I think it's important to know what you are agreeing to.

The game is good but cheaters are unfortunately ruining a lot of peoples experience. Without cheaters the game is a solid 7/10 and a lot of fun with friends.

This game is challenging, rewarding and requires teamwork. I recommend picking it up if your'e into cooperative shooters. If you have friends to play with it's a great experience. I have enjoyed my time with the game and met some great people while playing it.

RECIPE TIPS
FREEZING THE BISCUITS
If you’ve frozen the biscuits, take them out and arrange them on a lined baking sheet. Once defrosted, pop them in a medium oven 190C/170 fan/gas mark 5 and heat for 2-3 mins to crisp up. Don’t leave them too long or they’ll dry out.

STORING DOUGH
You can keep the uncooked dough in a sealed container in the fridge for up to two weeks. Simply take some out, dollop on a lined baking tray and allow to come up to room temperature for 5 mins before baking

The game is really good to I just figured i'd give you my cookie recipe first so you could have some great cookies to enjoy with this great game.

The game has settings easy enough for a 4 year old to play and difficult enough for a hardcore racing enthusiast to enjoy. Not really into racing games or find them to difficult? That's fine you can slow the game down until it's at a pace where you can enjoy it the way you want to.

With all the things the game offers there is something for everyone to enjoy. Meet up online with friends and go cruising, spend time tuning or designing custom paint jobs for cars and upload them for others to use. If that's not your thing you can download and use others from the community. If your into virtual photography and want to take beautiful pictures of realistic cars there is an incredible photo mode for that to.

The game is a playground for you to enjoy however you decide to and that is why i would recommend this game for everyone.

Over 2000 hours and I'm still playing this game regularly. If your looking to scratch that Socom itch this is it. Please buy this game so we have more people to play with and if you cant find people to play with feel free to send me an invite to play sometime.
