So I'm currently stuck somewhere in the Jungle of Indonesia and need to kill some times. What's the best way to do this? Writing reviews! (Eh, yeah you can call me crazy. Am actually stuck tho)

My points for the game:

-AI: 0/10
Pretty much non-existent

-Graphics: 8.5/10
The graphics of the game are pretty nice, but I feel like you need a high end pc to properly run it. I'm using a fairly new i7 and a GeForce GTX 1070 and I can't play this game on settings too high as it will just burn my pc alive.

-Price: 7/10
Price isn't too expensive although it could be a couple bucks down in my opinion.

-Game Length: 8/10
Honestly it's pretty much endless, of course you can have the best gear but it's not like you will be finished playing the game once you reached that level.

-Bugs: 9/10
Seen very few bugs playing this game. Last time I saw real bugs was in the legacy edition.

-PC Requirements: 6.5/10
You definitely can't play this on a toaster. Even my pc has trouble now and then running it which is kinda crazy if you think about it (even though it's not the best available anymore for sure)

-Story: 0/10
No story available

-Mod Support: 10/10
Online servers can be modded which is a nice feature instead of only having servers hosted by the creator of the game.

-My Overall Rating: 8.5/10
I've been playing since the legacy version of Rust which in my opinion was a lot more fun than it is nowadays even though nowadays there is much more you can do. The early days of the new Rust version were great as well but I feel like it has changed quite a bit. Still worth buying if you're playing with friends as it will be a lot of fun.

So, first of all a disclaimer. I have played this game 100's of hours on a PS4 as I do league racing over there. I have played it some time on PC to but mostly not on my own account as is clearly visible.

My points for the game:

-The AI: 7/10
So.. Let's start off with probably one of the most discussed parts of the game each year. Has the AI gotten better? Well to state it simply. (but not so simple haha) Yes and no. Yes as in the AI makes less stupid decisions like in previous games. But on the other side this year's AI is ridiculously aggressive, they will literally push you off of the track at times or try to overtake you at the craziest moments.

-Graphics: 8.5/10
The graphics each year look better and better (obviously) and especially with more money behind the game it's easier to create a better looking game. Although it must be said that the lighting of the game sometimes really makes it feel like a game (duh, Sherlock), as it can be too bright at times and the colours will look a bit weird. In previously made games (before 2018) the lighting was a bit darker which seemed more realistic in my opinion compared to what it looks like nowadays. It really changed the feeling for me.

-Price: 7/10
Steam market is always a bit overpriced unfortunately, console editions are available at a cheaper price at this point and Steam is always far behind. I'd suggest waiting for a sale to buy the game, especially since F1 2021 will be released in about 4 months.

-Game Length: 10/10
You can play 10 seasons in career mode which is a very long time depending on what race distance you choose. Even if you would do 5 laps a race, 21 races in a season is gonna keep you busy for a while. 50% races with full qualification will take you about 1 hour and 30/40 minutes so do x 21 and then x 10. You get my point haha.

-Bugs: 6/10
There are quite some bugs that have been in the game for years and some new ones that popped up this year. Especially leaderboards not working in time trials, the scoreboard being messed up as a spectator in a race (important for league racing) or names not showing. (which I believe has been fixed now) There are some things that could have definitely been fixed faster or still need to be fixed. Unfortunately, Codemasters is known for not fixing bugs quickly. But in the end most of the times they will be fixed.

-PC Requirements: 7.5/10
You don't need a monster pc to run the game, but even with a fairly new i7 and a Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 I sometimes experience stuttering at high graphics settings. Now I know this is not the newest equipment out there, but it should do the job and I shouldn't experience stuttering.

-Story: 6.5/10
Thank God, Codemasters finally made playing 10 seasons a bit more interesting. I personally still wouldn't be able to play through all these seasons but it's made a bit more easy to sit through. F1 2020 now features rule changes which can set back your R&D progress. (Research and development) Unfortunately, you can pretty much fix that within a few race weekends. It's pretty sad to see that within one season you can go from the worst car to an almost race winning car. That just simply shouldn't be possible unless you're some kind of Brawn miracle which spoiler alert: You're not. This is one of the things that keep me from consistently playing career mode alongside other things like no serious story to follow. I don't see being bombarded with interview questions as a story at least. Hopefully this will be different with the new game.

-Mod Support: 4/10
Modding isn't supported by the game itself on any kind of version. However there is a decently sized modding community out there on the internet, and through some workarounds you can get some pretty good mods for the game (or even make some yourself as it's not too hard. Just a bit time consuming)

-My Overall Rating: 7,3
So I do take in account which things are more important to the casual player than someone who will be going as far as modding the game him/herself. That's why I will weigh some aspects of the game more heavy than the other.

AI x2
Graphics x2
Price x1
Game Length x2
Bugs x2
PC Requirements x1
Story x2
Mod Support x1

I love this game, even though I have been banned (Which was completely my own fault and I deeply regret) this game is very fun.

My points for the game:

-The AI: 2/10 AI is just not really a thing in this game unless you might play some workshop maps. Further than that, it surprises me that the AI knows how to hold a gun.

-Graphics: 7/10 The game is pretty old by now, but I just feel like the graphics are a bit lacking. It's good that maps get reworked and new content keeps being added, but compared to today's standards it just doesn't compete with anything

-Price: 10/10 (But also 1/10) The game is free, which has two sides to it. Side one is that everyone can hop in and try this game. Downside is, hackers get new accounts very easily which is a very bad thing.

-Game length: 10/10 I dare you to get to global if you're new, come back in about 1500+ hours

-Bugs: 9/10 There aren't really any bugs apart from some minor things I've seen in the past

-PC Requirements: 10/10 Obviously you don't need a good pc anymore nowadays to be able to play this game. I use an i7 and 1070 Nvidia graphics card and I hit about 200+ fps constantly

-Story: 1/10 Doesn't exist

-Mod support: 10/10 I don't know if I can really count it as mod support, but there are plenty of options in the servers created by people or in the workshop map, I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun trying out one of those

-My overall rating: 8.5/10 I've had a good time playing this game as long as it lasted. All the way from little Dimitri screaming his first C yka B lyat til the time I 1v5 awped my way to Legendary Eagle Master. If you feel like trying this game, just do it. It has a huge skill ceiling but it's so much fun.

Man I love this game! The first few hours of this game were a bit hard since my aim was pretty ♥♥♥♥ (Still is xD) but when I started playing more, I've started to enjoy the game more and more.

My points for the game:

-The Campaign: 7/10 I enjoyed playing the campaign, but it took me a long time to finish it, since it felt like I was playing hours while only playing for like 30m.

-Graphics: 7.5/10 The graphichs are alright, I mean the game is pretty old now but it still doesn't look 'bad' compared to many other games so that's pretty good in my opinion.

-Price: 7/10 The game itself isn't that expensive, but the DLC's combined are. Which sucks in my opinion.. When they're on sale it's alright but I don't ever see Black Ops II DLC's in like summer sales etc.

-Game length: 9/10 It takes A LONG time to get to Prestige Master, which is good in my opinion. But in my opinion, there should be more variety in like unlocking things when you get to higher prestiges. But anyways, the game doesn't ever 'end'. Well the campaign does, but nobody plays the campaign anymore. Zombies and Multiplayer are endless.

-Bugs: 10/10 I have never, ever seen any kind of bug in the game while playing it. There are probably some bugs, but I have just never experienced them.

-PC Requirements: 9/10 You don't need a monster pc to run this game which is nice. I myself have an average pc (Graphics: Nvidia GTX 960, processor: AMD FX6300) and I can run on the highest settings with almost no lagspikes.

-Zombies: 9/10 I love some good ol' zombies, and I love to play 'old' zombies maps. Really love it <3

-Custom Maps: 1/10 It's a bit sad that you're not able to play any kinds of custom maps in this game.

-My overall rating: 8.3/10 I've had a really good time playing Black Ops II so far and I will continue to play it in the future! If you're hasitating to buy this game, I would say buy it but maybe wait for a sale. Hope this review helped! :D

Man I love this game! The first hours the game was confusing but as soon as I got more into it, I started to get better, and got my first few victories!

My points for the game:

-The AI: 8/10 I like that there are a lot of different levels from Settler to Deity but for me the only thing that changes is that the AI gets buffs, which is okay but I would've liked seeing the AI actually get smarter like, knowing which units to attack or how to setup a proper attack on another civ instead of just declaring war and not doing much.

-Graphics: 8.5/10 I am in love with the artstlye of Civ V! The graphics could of course be better but what do you expect from a game released in 2010?

-Price: 7/10 The game itself isn't too expensive to me but all these DLC's are in my opinion, that's why I waited for a sale to buy the DLC or I bought it from other sites like ♥♥♥.

-Game length: 10/10 I love how they did the different game tempo's! For example if you want a 'quick' game just go with a quick game pace, or if you want a LONG game just go for marathon and 1 era will take hours to finish!

-Bugs: 8.5/10 In singleplayer I have almost never experienced bugs or glitches. But I have in multiplayer, like units being stuck or have your screen stuck at the city screen and being unable to click on other units, or having to wait 30m to load a game.

-PC Requirements: 9/10 You don't need a monster pc to run this game which is nice. I myself have an average pc (Graphics: Nvidia GTX 960, processor: AMD FX6300) and I can run on the highest settings with almost no lagspikes.

-Story: 2/10 I mean there's not really a story in the game, only some scenario's which I don't count as story, I don't know if a story would fit in a game like Civilization, but it would be nice maybe as an extra DLC.

-Mod support: 10/10 I really like that there's so many mods to use in the workshop, it really makes the game a lot better, and also that the creators support it!

-My overall rating: 9/10 I've had a really good time playing Civ V so far and I will continue to play it in the future! If you're hesitating to buy this game, I would say buy it but maybe wait for a sale. Hope this review helped! :D
