Ignore the time played, Steam didn't log the full 5 hours I played through it.

What an atrocity...

FEAR 1 and 2 were absolutely fantastic games that were unrivaled in the fusion of Horror and FPS, and still are, to this day. Eventually FEAR 3 came along to complete the trilogy. FEAR 1 had atmosphere, difficulty, great story and great gameplay. FEAR 2 had more of the same, but with a more streamlined approach to the story, but it didn't have as many open ended levels.

FEAR 3 ditched the horror, the good writing and ended up adding COOP to follow the COOP craze. The game was not difficult, the horror elements were completely removed, and the story was so out of wack, incongruent and just horribly written. Both the first 2 FEAR games had incredible AI that provided difficulty. Here, they might as well just be standing still. The level design is horribly linear, with no options of going in a different way.

Do yourselves a favor and stay away from this atrocity. If you were a fan of the first 2 games, this game will do nothing but sour your memory of the series. Avoid this like the plague!

Welcome to the grandfather of all first person shooters. Going down the maze like corridors, humping the walls for that sweet, sweet secret. Even after all of this time, this game is still very fun to play. Modern ports like SDL and ECWolf make the game run on newer computers wonderfully.

Once you get tired of the vanilla game, immerse yourself in the still active modding community. Wolfensteins modding community isn't as big as Doom's, but it's still just as talented and just as committed to the game.

If you don't mind the dated graphics, the hitscan weapons and the lack of stairs, then do yourself a favor and jump into this scifi/history inspired FPS!

What a fiasco!

I'm probably one of the few players who treats Early Access properly. People don't realize that Early Access is supposed to be an interactive version of kickstarter or investing. Complaining about bugs, missing features, placeholders, etc. is just pointless. Lets go back to the real review!

In earlier development this game had a lot going for it. It was expanding upon the framework that Minecraft had created, but there is a Survival/horde mode, which was pretty cool. In regular survival and creative mode, the devs originally promised ships, building in space and an interesting world to explore. The final product has none of these things. No space, no space ships, no interesting technology to really build something interesting. The world is extremely bare bones with nothing to really explore. By the time the game was released from EA, 90% of the promised features weren't even in the game.

Do yourself a favor and stay away from this game, as well as the developers. Having a small development team is no excuse.

Early Access Review
So apparently instead of fixing the new issues from the new console port that the new devs, why’re going to kill the game on January 2nd 2018 and close he servers. What a big giant FRACK you to loyal fans who had been playing this for years.

What a pity, since this was the best mech game since MechWarrior 4 Mercenaries..

Ah ZPS. What a game with so many memories! I used to admin all of the 24/7 cabin Servers, including the wildly popular ZF Cabin. Where we even had our own Cabin map. The gameplay was alwasy fun, the community was great, but sadly overtime the population died down to below 100 for a long time! But new updates seems to be bringing people back. Thinking about returning myself!

So apparently, you can't find the original version of Skyrim on steam, unless you use the direct link. GET THIS VERSION! DO NOT BUY THE SPECIAL EDITION!

The Special Edition nickel and dimes you with the Creation Club, while the original version has more mods that you don't have to pay for. You can make it better looking with mods, as well.

There is nothing bad I can say about this. Thinking about it now makes me sad. It was made back in a time where Star Wars was created for the fans, by the fans. That included George Lucas. Then it was bought by a greedy corporation ready to kill it and raid its carcass, injecting needless hamfisted politics, awful storytelling and no regard for the fans at all.

Knights of the Old Republic is sadly a memory of a bygone era. Featuring some of the best storytelling the series and Science Fiction has ever seen. Memorable characters, beautiful dialogue an an engaging story with a twist that could actually compare to ESB. Wow....

If you're looking to replay this gem or you're new to it, make sure to go to NexusMods and load up on the excellent mods this game has to offer.

On a side note not sure why Steam only has 3 hours, when I've had over 5 playthroughs on PC and countless more on XBOX. Oh well!
