Horizon Zero Dawn's beautifully woven and stunning narrative is among the best in video game history. A tale of urgent ingenuity and selfless humanity unfolds as Aloy, a young tribal girl, discovers the secrets of an ancient hidden history.

Delivering one of the most heart-wretching and emotional stories ever produced, Horizon Zero Dawn is a masterpiece of video gaming that left me agog and awestruck when the final credits rolled.

Aloy remains in my heart forever. 10/10

My favorite of the Borderlands saga. Colorful characters, great new guns, addictive game-play. Well worth it.

A supernatural adventure in a brutalist office building where you unravel the mystery of the Hiss. You are Jesse Faden, a woman searching for her long lost brother. Use guns and psychic powers to battle against a strange force that threatens to consume the world.

Challenging, very fun, great voice acting and motion capture acting. Control is a fantastic game.

Monster Hunter: World is a video game experience about hunting different kinds of monsters with a variety of unique weapons. It has an immense amount of content, replayability, and challenge. It's extremely fun to hunt monsters with other players and goof around in the World Hub. The amount of flora & fauna makes this game a botanist's or zoologist's dream come true.

One of the best games I've ever played. Highly recommended.

Baby Nightshade Paolumu is the ultimate pièce de résistance. :)

Metal Gear: SurVive merges a single player campaign with an incredibly fun and addictive co-op multiplayer where up-to-4 comrades fight to protect their IRIS energy mining operation from the hordes of laconic Wanderers who are awakened by the Digger's wormhole mining procedure.

The single player campaign is a base and health management game where collecting resources from the hostile environment allows you to SurVive for one more day on the arid landscape of Dite. There are plently of in-game collectibles like retro videogame music (Castlevania's Bloody Tears, etc..) and unique nameplates tucked away in the fog of Dite. The co-op multiplayer is made of Salvage missions where you can earn high amounts of resources, KUBAN energy and epic weapons so you can continue to SurVive on Dite.

SurVive is The Phantom Pain pitched to a frenetic pace. The horde of crystalized Wanderers never cease to multiply and spawn from wormholes. Only your best and furious-on-the-fly battle tactics will prevail against the rising throng! For pure adrenaline fun, SurVive is hard to beat.

Played MG:SurVive BETA and got to the 25 level maximum. The game is pretty fun. I can see that with more maps and SP, it will be very addictive. I don't like the 'double-tap' jump mechanic. I hope Konami offers a key-mapping option as I do not know how to zoom into the sights of my gun. The thowing mechanic is different from TPP, you have to [press, hold and let go of a button] to throw which I am still not used to.

I like all the sounds in the game -- picking up materials, crafting, shooting and voices. Very well done. The music is really good too. It reminds me of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.

The co-op is fun as long as everyone plays fairly and understand the point of the missions. If someone is new or doesn't know what they are doing, they will do more harm than good to the team.

The Phantom Pain is by far my favorite game, but SurVive is pretty fun. For me, The Phantom Pain was a masterpiece (10/10) so MG:SurVive is good (8/10).

A superb piece of videogaming that stunned me with its emotionally wrought and tragic story about bitterness and revenge.

A masterpiece.
Never Be Game Over.

EDIT (12/12/2016):
After playing more than 1400+ hours, I can assuredly write that this game is truly a masterpiece.

If you are going to purchase it I recommend purchasing the Definitive Experience version since it includes Metal Grear Solid: Ground Zeroes and some camouflage outfits that were only released with the Day One Edition of the PS4 version of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.

EDIT (2/14/2018):
Going on 2466 hours and still enjoying this incredible game. Best Metal Gear Solid game ever and it will be years before its message and significance is understood. Do yourself a favor and play it.
