|It is depressing how short this game is, because it is seventeen different kinds of amazing. So you play as these prisoners who are trying to escape this dying planet while also fighting away anything that crosses your path. Steve Blum voices the main character(of course). You have a bunch of guns and endless possibilities in how you go through every level. You get points based on how awesome you kill the enemies. You can shoot the equivalent of grenade nunchucks at some guy, tying him up in grenadey goodness, then use your foot to kick him into a group of enemies and detonate the grenade belt, taking them all out and scoring major points. That's a pretty basic way to kill someone. Called "The Worst Game Ever" by everyone's favorite news source, Fox, so you know its good. It's really short though, you'll get through it in about
5-7
hours if you are slow, and there isn't enough extra things to do to extend that past 15 hours. You may spend a lot of time learning new combos and stuff, but that's about it. A real shame too, since the lack to playtime really doesn't justify paying more than 30-40 bucks for it.

|Good gameplay mechanics. Gunplay feels realistic enough to be challenging, and arcade-like enough to be fun. While the game tries to bloat play styles, it mostly comes down to either going balls out or being stealthy. Pretty fun otherwise. Missions are your typical open-world type with races, hunting, assassinations, etc. The story has a good concept, but is bogged down by being overtly-pretentious and unnecessarily surreal at times.

|The popular RPG franchise gets a fighting game! It's definitely worth the time. Great netcode, story lasts around
30-40
hours, and is faster paced than Blazblue. Pretty good for getting into fighting games in general too. Protip: This is important, if you want to reduce lag in online matches, please do not skip the match intros.

|That's right, a good movie tie-in! Made by Rayman/Beyond Good and Evil creator Michel Ancel. Apparently Peter Jackson liked BG&E so much he chose Michel's team to create the game!<br />Play in first person as Jack, or in third person as Kong himself. Really fun, really atmospheric and very faithful to the movie, with some great voice acting from the movie's cast. One of the first games to throw away the HUD and rely on visual/audio cues to let you know what's up. While it's short (
4-6
hours) and could use a few more Kong levels it's a great game and worth checking out.

Absolutely ''incredible'' voice acting, and just an all-around stunning and fun experience. If you have some buds, the free roam mulitplayer is a blast.

|The fifth instalment of your favorite argument-inducing franchise. This time you control Chris Redfield and his new partner Sheva Alomar. The game is set in Africa, so is not as 'atmospheric' as previous entries. Follows the path of RE4, with more action than ever, and barely any survival horror. That won't stop you from having fun, tho. The game truly shines played on co-op. It has a lot of cheesy moments that are kind of a trademark of RE series. Anyway, Gold Edition expands the experience with two new episodes, new multiplayer modes, extra characters for the Mercenaries mini-game, extra costumes, and more little stuff that's nice to have. <

|Well it's Tekken...with tag teams. Virtually every character ever to have been included in Tekken games (except Gon, cause one boxing dinosaur is enough awesome for one game), all the game modes you expect, including tag modes, single fighter modes and 2 on 1 mode. The boss at the end of Arcade mode is as much of a total bitch to beat as usual, but end movies can be unlocked by playing Ghost mode. Jugglan as standard.

|Thanks to community feedback, SNK fixed problems from the previous title. With faster action, over six different play modes, clearer and vibrant backgrounds. repaired and improved online, NEOMAX supers, and rebalanced move lists, this is vastly improved from 12. Several fan faves like Yuri, King, Kula, K’, Maxima (<

> REAL MEN LIKE MAXIMA), and Mai also return. Gorgeous animations, and some fun fanservice (both meanings) alternate color-schemes/costumes. Of all the companies, this is being brought over by... ATLUS?! Yeah, I'm shocked, too. They even have a cool bonus edition set like they often do.
