This is it. This is the best one I've played. You can just sail around pirating any time you get bored of doing the missions, and the crew know no shortage of shanties. It might be an older game, but it's still worth playing.

Short game, but a phenomenal story. Really enjoyed it. Don't know that there'll be a ton of replay for me, but a good selection of challenges, and It really uses the DC characters well.

I really want to like this game. The graphics are beautiful, and it felt like a return to the old Most Wanted/Carbon style games. However this game seems to do its best to keep me from enjoying myself. I initially bought the game on origin, which I couldn't get to play nice with steam and my steam controller, so I shelved it 'till i could get another controller. I later saw that it was now available through steam, so i bought a second copy for less than the cost of a new controller, and thought I'd give it another go. You can see that the bones of something good are here. There's plenty of performance tuning, visual customization, and even setup to tweak your driving style, but it never feels satisfying. You can set up a car in favor of speed for some events, but then it doesn't handle worth anything in the drift challenges. So you end up with another car geared towards sliding, but if you give it too much power, you'll spin out on every corner. If you bump the power down, you can't hang with the dragsters in the straight line challenges. That's not a massive issue, but it does become annoying when you're free roaming around you're in the wrong car. Rather than lineup into whatever event you happen upon, you have to jump to the garage for a car that's suited for that event, and then teleport back to the start line. Really breaks up the immersion. Also, The AI isn't afraid to cheat if you're not supposed to win. Very rarely can you make up for a weaker car with skill. The cops also have x-ray vision, and can follow you if you break line of sight.(At least carbon let you know where the helicopter was.) I also encountered the issue that causes the controller to be recognized incorrectly, which makes the X and B buttons open menus mid-race, and since the game is online only, it doesn't pause, and I crash. Apparently it's not an uncommon issue, but I've been unable to get any of the fixes to work.
The story isn't particularly exciting, but at least it has one. At this point, the social aspects are pretty useless too. Unless the game just happens to work properly for you, you'd be better of with another title that won't feel like you're fighting the game to enjoy it.

This game is fun once it finishes loading. Fastest record to play is 8 minutes, but it's usually 20-30 to get to the main menu, and that's with an M.2 SSD. Other than that's there's some minor changes for the worse and better since Borderlands 2, but I would reccomend it overall.

This game makes the worst part about guitar something you actually want to do: practice.
You've got positive feedback telling you where you're missing, and where you're killin' it. All while the progress bar tells you that you're actually improving. Plenty of songs you know and want to learn (may be sold separately) spanning all genres and decades.
The game itself is a little unstable at times, Occasionally freezing on loading screens, but that may be my large song library.
10/10 would shred again.

Play the classics! (the old old classics). Some fun pieces here. I prefer the songs in the Bachsmith II pack, but still a great add-on if you're looking for an new style.

The sequel to War for Cybertron improves on it in almost every way, and ends up being the best of this series. The campain is always slightly longer than I think it should take, and the new characters are a ton of fun to play. After you beat the game, head over to multiplayer to play some team deathmatch (the only mode anyone plays anymore). The player base is small, and hackers are plentiful, but if you end up in a good match it's a ton of fun.
