With Left4Dead 2, the zombie apocalypse doesn't get old. Still enjoyable after a decade especially with the modding community still active.

Great for those who prefer either single player or multi or both. Most of all, it's still cheap even BEFORE a sale.

This VN is very well-made for its (cheap) price.

The artwork is incredible. The music soothing. The story is short, yet sad and touching.

I recommend this to anyone with at least at least two hours to spend. Personally, I'm hoping there'll be a sequel or follow-up.

It's about f***** time I gave this game a well-deserved review. What else is there to say about this game that others haven't already discussed? I'm on my 4th playthrough of the game.

A great combination of action, RPG elements (of course!) where your decisions can *really* affect the story.

So many years after its release and it still kicks ass! It plays pretty much like Fallout 3, but I bet the devs of New Vegas found inspiration from fan mods that they incorporated them into the game.

It's not perfect of course (no game is), but you can thank the modding community for dealing with some of the flaws and improving on many factors such as gameplay and quests.

Definitely something worth putting in your games library especially if it's on sale!

Sometimes "less" can be "more", and the simplicity of Shan Gui is what counts here in my opinion. The voice acting borders on average, the music is touching and the scenes are breath-taking. The plot itself involves a female tourist being guided by her mysterious friend (another girl) to real locations in the mountains. (Think "Go Go Nippon!" but in China).

The whole experience is like reading a short romance comic while listening to classical music in the background.

Personally, I can only wish that the friendship (relationship) between the two main characters was explored in greater detail. This can be somewhat of a disappointment especially for Yuri fans, unless the writer intends to make a continuation!

All in all, it's as short and straight-forward as a kinetic novel can get. There are no choices to be made to influence the story. Depending on how fast you read, you can finish the entire novel in an hour or less, at the same time, take in all the achievements with no effort. These factors may be pros for some, and cons for others.

Considering the novel's length and it's price (it's better when on sale!) then Shan Gui is a good deal.

Two in the morning ... ok ... one more round ... then I'll go to sleep ...

The artwork is amazing and the very backgrounds are breathtakingly beautiful. The game really appears to put you in the shoes of the protagonist while you figure out how to solve the puzzles and to navigate the world she is in. It truly reminds me of the innocent cartoons of my childhood. The only "cons" in my opinion is the lack of a story, especially a background story of the the characters and the world they live in, the lack of dialogue and there is little replay value. Still, giving the game a shot is worth the time. I'd love to see a continuation or maybe an update!

KIlling Floor isn't just your average FPS. Improving your stats, and not to mention, surviving the game takes a lot of patience and even more teamwork. The replay value is high thanks to Perks (character classes) that take an incredible but worthwhile amount of time to level up, a wide range of weapons to experiment (or toy!) with and different maps. A good deal of knowledge about the game mechanics is necessary to make it through the extermination runs, but that's where friends come in handy. When playing with a team you can trust, then win or lose, the experience is just amazing!
