Insurgency Sandstorm attempts to put a realistic spin off of the traditional FPS to make it a gritty depiction of modern urban combat.

It's high quality graphics, audio, effects, and voice acting pulls you into a more immersive game play experience. The gun play, high-damage weapons, and limited respawns gives a more realistic urban combat experience.

I'd recommend it if you want to play a tactical shooter and don't have the time or specs for Squad Arma. I'd also recommend it if you're a fan of traditional shooters like CoD or CSGO as this has a high level of grit and polish at the same time.

You used to be able to purchase legendary with in-game currency. So I spent $30 in-game then had to spend $30 on Steam.

Note: both I and most reviewers have many more hours in the original copy of Skyrim.

Skyrim is the definitive medieval fantasy RPG. I don't recommend it if you're prone to game addiction as it's pretty time consuming. However, with mod support, Skyrim offers thousands of hours of entertainment in any play style you would like.

Buy off the Rockstar launcher unless you get a good sale. Not like my cowboy experience at all, I never made any money doing that. Awesome story, most fun main character to play as ever, side characters not as fun. Recommended, even though they knock on my home state like the ATF coming to take your unregistered complete collection of RDII firearms.

In all seriousness. Red Dead Redemption II is a game about letting you be the ultimate western anti-hero in a AAA open world action game. It does this through a well written story with quality-acted characters and scrictly-scripted story missions in an open world game. Arthur Morgan completely sells the game. The typical AAA game challenges do distract from the game's focus. The story missions, which change the game rules without telling you, are obnoxious. Overall, however, you can't deny that it's the best western game ever made and it's completely worth playing through.

This port has several issues support for Steam Cloud or controllers. It does have an issue setting up, but this isn't difficult to work around.

I recommend either buying the reboot or buying it somewhere else.

The game is just another Sci-fi co-op shooter, not creative. It does it better than anything else though, never had more fun blasting apart generic robots and bugs.

Note: the game is still early access, the developer has said they are unable to mark as such because of some weird Steam rule.
Note 2: the only content is the army guy on the autumn forest map, it's a lot of content, but the mountain map with the girl is still in the works.

If you're military - everyone should try it. The tools are realistic, I think it's the best training you can get unless you have personal access to a Landnav course and 1:50,000 topo maps.

If your civilian - I still recommend it. You get to see a big part of the military experience that never makes it in video games. However, I wouldn't consider it a military game because that's ubiquitous with combat. If you want a relaxing a rewarding simulator, then plotting and finding points is pretty fun, if you don't mind getting lost every once and a while.

This game aims to make you feel like an elite clone trooper but with elements of tactical realism that make it more immersive than any other shooter I've played.

It's old, the graphics aren't pretty, and teammate's AI can be annoying, but I definitely recommend this game to anyone looking for a fun FPS campaign!

At least buy this through Ubisoft, not Steam.

It's a pretty fun game, but only in spite of everything Ubisoft does to ruin it.

I would use Steam's 2-hour 2-week refund rule to check out Mordhau, Chivalry, and For Honor before comitting to one.

It's a more accessible and faster-paced tactical shooters than others in the genre. It has a good community too.
