The controls are a bit clunky, but the style is there and that soundtrack is straight up BANGIN'. JET SET RADIOOOOOO/5

The bad thing about this game? It ended.

+ Rich, vibrant atmosphere and environments
+ Great soundtrack
+ Believable voice-acting and characters
+ The story keeps unfolding and unfolding and is a thrilling ride all through-out
+ Morale system that made me pause quite often to really contemplate my actions, choices and their consequences - multiple endings add definite replay value

- Clunky camera (often blocks out important bits around you...) and controls (par for the course for adventure games like this, possibly awkward due to sticking to KB+M)
- Stuttering, glitches and bugs galore, game froze in odd spots a couple of times
- The character models can look a bit off - maybe due to the engine or the dub I used (English), lips fell out sync and the emotions expressed visually didn't match the lines and what not

Despite the glitches, crashes and awkward character models in places, I'm hoping the devs come back to continue the story of Blacksad through video games - it's been way too long since the last novel, and as a fan I felt the same thrills as when I binged the novels for the first time with this game. Pick this up if you miss Telltale, you like/are interested in the world of Blacksad, and/or you're just looking for classy furshit or film noire-thrills.

Detective Smirnov is also a total hunky musky bara-daddy <3

Great soundtrack, addicting and tough-as-nails gameplay, a story that's actually worth the payoff and filled to the brim with mystery and great lore, and a stylish coat of neon-colours, animal masks and drug-induced mayhem, this game truly was worth the 3€ i payed for it. Damn it, it's worth the entire price. It's great fun to play through, but don't go and hyper-ragequit like me and slam your headphones on your table so hard that the plastic-thingy on the hinge of the left ear-cup would manage to break off. This game is a blast to play through again and again, and it certainly isn't as balls-to-the-walls crazy difficult like the sequel, Wrong Number. That game was just pure and non-filtered bullcrap compared to this one.

Also, expect it to run on almost any potato-machine that you have. And as you can probably tell, i highly recommend this game. Just don't expect to master it during your first playthrough. You will die. A lot. This game is like that bag of sour candies that will make your tongue go numb and get your eyes watering, but the fruity flavour under that cover of powder is worth the pain. Turn up the volume on your speakers, dimm the lights and prepare for a bloody and cocaine-y journey to the 80's.

CS:GO is trash compared to this. ♥♥♥♥ Valve for removing the wacky physics from Counter-Strike after Global Offensive. ♥♥♥♥ Valve for making Counter-Strike a skinfest. This is my jam right here.

You don't play DOOM like a normal shooter, since DOOM is not a normal shooter. DOOM is a legend, DOOM is a god amongst men, and DOOM has been cultivating its gore and guts all around the world for around 23 years. DOOM has shocked us, it has appalled us, but most importantly, DOOM is a great game.

As of the moment that i'm typing this, my heart is still pumping, my veins are still throbbing and i can feel the primal urge to scream nonsensical swears and roar out of plain ecstacy, just like Papa. So, what is it about this game that it makes me feel this alive?

Doomguy wakes up in Mars. Everything has gone to hell. You crush some poor demons skull against your own grave. You get a pistol. And within the lab that you just woke up from, there's your armor. You put your helmet on, take a deep breath, and smell the hell-ish smell of carbon monoxide, metal, and rotting flesh. You grab your shotgun, and you're ready to roll. Nothing else matters. You just shoot, crush, punch, kick, slay, and just like in the every sense and meaning of the word, kill demons.

Remember how i said that you don't play DOOM like a normal shooter? I ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ meant it. Turn up the difficulty, connect your 5.1 surround sound system, dim the lights and prepare for a journey to Hell and back. You'll go in as a whimpering, quivering mama's boy, but you'll come out covered in blood, guts, and with a lust for demon flesh that can only be satisfied by the kick from the barrel, and seeing as some Imp-bastard turns into a pool of giblets, blood, blood, bLOOD, BLOOD. MORE BLOOOOOOOOOD.

DOOM might kick you in the head and rip you apart like a pinata filled with guts and intestine, but it just makes you want more.

"YOU'RE HUGE! THAT MEANS YOU HAVE HUGE GUTS!" - Doomguy

Rip. And. Tear.

+ Gunplay feels more responsive and beefier than in 3 or New Vegas.

+ The artstyle is actually pretty good, not just poop-brown and rustic-black all over the place.

+ It's mindlessly fun to be a hoarder and craft stuff.

- It lacks the RPG-antics almost entirely. I don't feel like i'm in control of how my character turns out to be or how the world works, all i can do is just shoot my way through some baddies, earn a perk and that's it. There's no real progression or consequenses, just stat boots, so the "RPG-elements" are just getting perks and getting random XP-points from shooting stuff.

- The dialogue-options are horrible. I get that there's lots of dialogue to be written in an RPG, but i really wouldn't have minded the lack of voice-acting, if that meant that i could have had better dialogue. There's only "yes", "no", "sarcastic yes" and "♥♥♥♥ NO ♥♥♥♥ YOU AND YOUR STUPID FACE"..

- Half of the characters are boring as fug and seem to serve no purpose other than "ur the chosen one lulz do this and that and bring me my prune-juice lmao k thx bye"

- The crafting is fun, and the basebuilding sorta works, but having to run errands for my brain-dead allies who keep on feasting off my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ watermelons is really, really intrusive and frustratingly boring.

- It's still buggy, because the now-bloated and 10-year-old "Gamebryo"-engine is handling more than it truly can.

- Running this game properly is a nightmare, since thanks to the "Gamebryo"-engine, optimization has been thrown to the garbage bin.

- The gameplay gets boring quickly.

4/10

Overall, just get Witcher 3 or the Fallout 3/New Vegas-pack instead of this. I bought this on release-day, and i kinda regret it.

This game is like Mario Kart mixed with Pro Evolution Soccer 2005. I know, i know, usually you'd probably stop reading there and move on. But please, do read on, and i'll tell you why this game might be the biggest fun you'll have with your pants on in a while.

Honestly, in the midst of this very e-sports-centric movement of gaming, where everything and everyone wants to surround and appeal to "the e-sports crowd", it's great to have a chill, relaxed and casual game like Rocket League. Sure, you can play it hardcore, aiming to become the best RC-car-football-bouncing-driver there ever was. You can do it. But ♥♥♥♥ me, i'm glad that i can enjoy this game for what it is, instead of getting laughed at because instead of a picture of golden eagle next to two golden leafs, i have a picture of a golden AK with two leaflets. I just love tuning on my favorite show like South Park or Rick And Morty on my second monitor, and playing this game while talking ♥♥♥♥ on Skype with my buddies. It's the perfect game to play in between or before going to bed or going to school. The matches don't last longer than about 5-6 minutes, so you can hop in, enjoy a match, feel good, and do something else.

Now the gameplay. The controls might feel a bit jerky at first (i play on M+KB, it just feels better than using a controller), but soon you'll be drifting and bouncing the ball back and forth and (sometimes) into the opponents goal-post, like you're a hybrid of David Beckham and Marcus Grönholm. It's fast, fluent, and extremely easy to get into. It's also extremely fun with friends.

Sure, you'll get salty over a bad teammate or a disconnect from a game where you'll get a 300-ping. It's got problems. But those flaws are very easily forgotten, when you finally manage to boost the ball through the entire field on one big push over to the goal, winning the game by the last second. Adrenaline-packed, arcade-styled, neon-glittered and combined with an awesome soundtrack, this game is totally worth the $20.

I make hometown. I call it Ustavnaprivyatekonto. There's Sasha. Mishka. Pider. Everyone. Good friends.

We have no money. No power. No clean water, citizen all poor. Everyone not happy.

Just like in hometown.

Such is life, in Ustavnaprivyatekonto.

A peculiar, memorable and a very interesting take on the format of the typical visual novel.

A chatbot and a text-based adventure-game combined, this is what comes out. The story is pretty basic high-school/college-drama about a boy and a girl, but the way that it's presented is amusing. Remember those IM-services like Windows Messenger and AIM? Well, be prepared for a pint of nostalgia! There's only a chatbox that you need to type in, and make decisions that drift the tone of the conversation you have with your high-school crush. And suprisingly, this game isn't Japanese.

I love creative design like this. Not just because MSN Messenger was a part of my early-teen years, but also because it's so subtly designed.

Plus it's free, so give it a go if you got a half-an hour to spend.
