CSGO is a challenging first person shooter that require cooperation from your teammates in order to work efficiently. Be wary, this game has a bit of a learning curve. Don't expect to be an expert right off the bat. There are plenty of tactics you will have to learn outside of the game from sources like Youtube. At first when I had first played this game two years ago, I really did not enjoy it. Then I re-installed the game a year later just to give it another try. I ended up enjoying the game way more than I had previously, and I was very surprised. I definitely recommend you give this game a try. At only fifteen dollars this game is a gem. Just look at how long I've played the game!

Shovel Knight

-Great Rpg and Platforming elements.
-Nicely done Hub-world.
-Very Challenging difficulty especially if you go for the achievements or New-Game Plus.
-Easy to controls
-Great Level Design.
-Outstanding Boss fights.
-The Soundtrack is great, I was I bought the Soundtrack Edition.
-Upcoming free Updates with new storymodes and characters to play.

Ultimately it depends what kind of gamer you are, if you like platformers or want to get into them, this is an amazing start. I bought this game knowing it'd be good, but a part of me was skeptical. Now having played through it twice I'm absolutely amazed over the quality of this game, it was definitely worth every single penny, or at least that's my oppinion. I can't wait for the sequel if there will be one. I'll definitely buy Yacht Club Games' next title, whatever it may be. 10/10

So I've played through the original Half-Life game and its expansions, I recommend that everyone should do this once before playing Half-Life 2. If you want a fast review then here you go, buy it, buy this game right now. Now if you'd like to see why I think you should buy it immediately, continue on.

Pros

-Great Storyline

-Wonderful Voice Acting

-Great Character Personality

-Great Weapons overall

-Great Airboat and Car sections (Usually I hate it when FPS games add a car or boat section, but here it is done amazingly and surprisingly I enjoyed every second of it)

This list could go on, I hope I made my point that you should buy this game, now the main issue.

Con/Con

This game is old, and that's not its fault but if you've played bioshock or COD or anything similar, you'll notice that this game is somewhat dated. The storyline is great, so are the characters, but the AI for some of the characters is a bit annoying at times but back in the day was probably quite amazing. The graphics are great for this title and its probably some of the best of its time, but today the graphics are dated.

THe Verdict

Back in 2004 this game set so many standards of what a FPS should be and you'll definitely think this game is fun and enjoyable, but don't expect anything new. Overall Half-Life 2 is amazing, it's very well done, it has a great story, great characters, great weapons, and is definitely worth every penny. I recommend you buy Half-Life 2 and every other Half-Life game, since all of them are very enjoyable. For me, this game set a standard of what every FPS should have and the moment Half-Life 2: Episode 3 or Half-Life 3 or whatever the third installment will be called, I guarantee you that I will pre-order this game on the spot.

This game still stands the test of time. Released in 2009, this game is just as fun as when I first played it. As you can see, I have played this game for a ginormous amount of time, I guarantee you will as well if you buy it. This game is also the best zombie-shooter I've played... EVER! Four player coop has never been more fun. Even if you play through all the campaigns, there are still workshop mods and maps, not to mention the layout of /items/enemies changes each time you play a campaign. This game never gets old or boring, you just get better! If you find the game too easy, then play on Expert mode, if you're already playing on Expert mode, play on Realism mode, if you've already played on Realism mode, get all the achievements! I can go on and on, but if you've played a Valve game, you'll know of how polished their games are, and this is no exception. Movement is smooth. I refuse to rate this game on any sort of scale. Trust my words, but more importantly trust how long I've played this game, you'll love this game. Get a few friends to play it with you, and you'll have quadruple the fun. Have fun!
