Fun game, doesn't do anything new but it's mixture of Souls-like and ARPG elements make for a fun time. Gets a bit tedious at the end but thankfully doesn't try to stretch it out to some 100 plus hour slog. Hopefully they do a sequel/successor.

Major step down in every way that matters from it's predecessors. Save your money and just get TL1 and 2.

It's okay

Enigma DRM: "Hold my beer"

A great introduction to city builder managerial games. Simple to get into so new players can decide if they like the genre or for those like me who want to play a city builder game but on a smaller less stressful scale.

My only real suggestion for improvement would be some kind of sound or alert when your buildings need repaired, something like how Command and Conquer does it.

Not as good as the classics, but not bad by any means. If you were a fan of the old games and see it on sale def grab it.

Wait for a sale, especially if you don't have too many people to play the game with. This game's single player is hamstrung by the braindead AI, although I love this games multiplayer.

tl;dr, Mix Diablo RNG with a Mad-Max wasteland and a healthy dose of dry humor.

Borderlands has long been one of my favorite video game series, as it features a number of qualities that make it different from other shooters on the market. While it does feature all the hallmarks of shooters and Role Playing Games, Borderlands mixes the ideas together. Borderlands uses RNG ala Diablo to produce many variants on each of the weapons used.

The RPG elements also expand to action based leveling and skill points. Action based leveling increases your proficiency based weapon usage. If you use revolvers for example, each kill will increase your pistol exp until your weapon level increases. You also choose a class (a balanced soldier, melee focused brute, long ranged focused sniper, and an elemental based siren) and level up to put skill points into your skills.

+
A unique shooter
Multiple play styles, four classes
Lots of guns and lots of variations of them
Unique art style helps it stand out

-
shoddy hitboxes (ESPECIALLY for the sniper rifles)
Occasional frame-rate/pop-in issues
It's sequel is superior in every way.

8/10, this game is STILL after all this time one of my favorite games.

tl;dr, a mediocre entry in a fairly solid franchise.

The Call of Juarez is a western based first person shooter; think cowboys, revolvers and such. This entry in the franchise took the franchise to a more modern time, centering on gangs and drugs. This upset many fans who immediately gave it a 0/100. While I personally believe the preceding and following games (Bound in Blood and Gunslinger) are far superior products, for the most part this game is mediocre and not terrible.

Gameplay 7/10
At the heart of the game is fairly solid gameplay that plays like all the other entries in the Call of Juarez series. Weapons are powerful, but manageable, and the game ticks off all the positive points of a first person shooter. What brings the game down is driving sections or really anything that relies on your allies.

Characters/Story 2/10
Without a doubt the weakest part of this game is the characters you will be interacting with and the story you'll be interacting in. Your AI team will complain if you miss, complain if you play well, and factor into the non-sense story with secret agendas (Everyone is bad etc.). My least favorite parts of this game are the parts where you have to rely on your team mates for anything, as they are just terrible. Not only are they absolutely incompetent, but their one dimensional personalities are absolutely grating and their tacky voice acting is just awful.

Sound 8/10
Easily the strongest part of this game is the excellent sound design. Music is well written and fits the period well, with modern western metal mixing with a score. Firearms have a powerful sounding boom, and even the starter AK and pistol sounding like a cannon when it goes off.

Visuals 7/10
While I experienced no major pop-ups/glitches, the game is average for the course. Serviceable with occasional rendering delays.

Overall 24/40 or 60%. I personally would recommend skipping this game, for even with the solid sound engineering and gunplay, it's sequel (and prequel) do that without the irritating characters. If it goes on sale and you're a completion-ist, by all means go for it.

tl;dr, Improved mechanics over FEAR 1 and a move towards action over horror.

While the first game (and it's DLC's) strove to find a balance between spooks and shoots, the sequel aims towards action over horror. There are still spooks abound in the sequel, but the lean towards action can make or break the game for players. That being said, (almost) everything from the first game carries over and is improved. Guns handle much better than they did in the first one, they also do more damage. The flashlight and Slo-Mo are both much better this time around as well. The cover is the (for the time) standard crouch behind objects, and the weapons are somewhat balanced.
Also, the slide kick (Dash forward and press melee) is awesomely broken. Unfortunately, as is often the case with 2nd games in a horror franchise, this game is a transitional game between the spooks of the first game and the action of the third game.

I also never played the multi-player so I have no opinion on it.

+
Much improved mechanics in every aspect
The action parts are done much better than the first
You mostly no longer need an entire clip to kill one guy
The horror is still intact

-
The scares are much less frequent
The levels are much more linear
The game is (much) shorter than the first one
Fear 3 does the action better
Fear 1 does the scares better
