A few days ago, I would have overwhelmingly recommended this game. It was, by far, the most amazing and fun co-operative experience I've had in YEARS with a live service model that didn't feel like it was taking my wallet hostage and a plethora of game elements that made it so much fun. Now however, Sony ruined that. I cannot in good faith recommend this game until the forced account linking by Sony is removed and game access is restored to the 80+ countries & territories it once was before.

Arrowhead studios made a golden goose of a game, and Sony's greed just cut off its head. Let this be a lesson for all.


Literally hours after making this review, Sony reversed their decision on mandatory account linking, proving once again, Democracy prevails. Remember, well dive together or not at all!

I want want WANT to give praise to this game but I absolutely CAN NOT in the state it currently is in. Absolutely NOTHING has been improved from the Beta nor even the CONSOLE version. Speaking of, this is hardly a "port" of the game when every. single. UI. has been copy pasted from the console release with the controls being a 1 to 1 adaptation. At times it feels more like a fancy emulation of the console version itself! As a Gundam fan I will trudge through this with gritted teeth cause thus far there are no other games with such a wide variety of suits that I can play with friends together in... but man, it's awful. Why Bandai... why?

Don't be fooled by my play time here on Steam. No other game in my entire collection has more hours put into it than this game right here. Spanning across many, many years, multiple computer systems, multiple OS, and countless mods, no other game I've ever owned has had as much attention in my life as this game right here.

And now, it's on Steam.

It's not the best port, I'll say that right now. The cracked unofficial WIndows 7 version I had running on my Windows 8,1 computer two years ago ran smoother than this one, but I digress, to finally have this game on a Windows 10 computer is pretty nifty. It does look a bit dated compared to many modern RTS, but at the same time it has aged very well. If you've ever played a "Collect resources, build things, destroy your enemy" RTS in the past decade or so, Total Anihilation will be very easy to get into. There are a few technical issues with this port, and some fixes to resolution need to be made for certain, plust it seems the game only has the "official" patches, meaning the unit limit cap is sadly smaller than I'm used to. For those who thrived off of modding this game, you'll understand what I mean. For those that don't, let's just say a 500 unit cap was "small" to us.

Technical aspects aside, it is still a decent port and truly a game worthy of giving a look over. A rare gem of an RTS that was revolutionary back in a time dominated by Starcraft and Command & Conquer. Here you not only get the original legendary game itself, but all it's expansions and the final patch that was released shortly before Cavedog studios went belly up. For the price you're paying, it's well worth a play.

Either for nostalgia's sake, curiosity, or if you're like me and never want to stop playing this game, OS be damned, then seriously, get it.

End the war spanning the galaxy, and leave your enemy in total annihilation.

Vary rarely do games catch my interest with such intensity, or such great emotion. Very seldomly do they capture my passion, my spirit, my determination. Not very often does a game live up to all the hype that has been built around it, and in all the years I've played games, from the humble SNES to the PS4, very few games have ever made me cry.

This, is one of those games.

Beautfully written, visually creative, and hard without ever feeling impossible. Undertale deserves all the praise it earns, for no other game has ever made me feel so accomplished when I achieved the "true" end. Hands down, this little indie game has become my personal Game of the Year and a serious contender for one of, if not THE best game I've ever played.

If you have any doubts about this game, just play it. Go in blind and experience something more than just a humble indie game. Experience a world where choice matters, where characters feel real, and where, as the game so lovingly puts it, you don't have to destroy anyone. Or kill everything, the choice is yours

Please, play Undertale. You won't regret it.

10/10

BILLIONAIRES HATE HIM! FIND OUT HOW ONE PC GAMER BECAME AN OCTODECILLIONAIRE IN MERE MINUTES!


Nah but seriously, game is fun. Buy everything you can to max out profits, close the game, come back the next day, claim angels, start over again... rinse repeat. So simple, but so addicting. Already bought Earth... now to profit the moon.

Alright, I don't usually give reviews on games, but I felt the need to on this one. AVOID THIS AT ALL COSTS. This was the biggest waste of time I ever played. The "tactical" aspects of Frontline Tactics are barely there with most enemies standing devoid of cover, making it child's play to take them out. Granted, your own forces face the same problems, and when there is cover, missions can drag on as you do minimal damage to each other.

Ontop of that, the F2P aspect makes you game horribly limited. Mission after Mission is required just to afford even the most mundane of equipment or even more soldiers, and special options like camo or unit customization are strictly Pay Only.

Betweem simple AI, simplistic graphics, and very limited customization options from the get go, I would not recommend this to play at all. There are much better Tactics based games out there, either free or cheap enough to buy.

Nice selection of guns and wave after wave of mutant zombie like creatures to mow down with friends. A good buy if you have some time to kill or need to work out some frustration with a few shot gun shells and grenades.

By far one of the best Civilization games yet. A must have for die-hard veterans of the series, strategy game enthusiasts, or anyone looking for a good, challenging game. Patience is key, strategy is critical, and never underestimate the power of a Spearman.

I highly recommend this to any who are curious about playing it.

Not a bad game. Not very awesome, but certainly can be fun. Would recommend it as a good time killer.
