Got this in the humble bundle for £15 and have thoroughly enjoyed my time so far.

Co-op and story was a blast, but very short. While I've almost done all the levels with gold ranking on each difficulty level, it feels a little copy-paste and lacking compared to the previous series developed by Gearbox. The humor is there and there are some very memorable lines, however, overall I feel like I wanted more to the story. Not much is explained in terms of why the main bad guys are doing what they do, and the best way to find out is character lore (which requires certain challenges and play time). Each level follows a very specific layout (minion fight-mini boss-minion fight/escort-main boss) and can get boring if you don't get lost in doing lore/fighting/trying to pull off cool skill combos. The key factor is to set yourself in-game challenges and work towards those, being either character lore or score-based medals.

Multiplayer was hard at first with the pretty unbalanced matchmaking due to the low player base, but good games and bad games come along. I play with two other level 80+ players and we can still get rolled through games if we have low level players. We do try our best to encourage and teach mechanics (as long as they actually want to learn!) so to best try and keep players in the community. While there is three different multiplayer game modes, I feel only Incursion is the game mode where players will thrive in a tactical-MOBA-esque mode. Games can be frustrating if you don't have people willing to fill character gaps (healer/tank/melee damage) and these will quickly ruin your experience. It is best when a player embraces their role and tries their best to help the team, which is difficult with most players as the past years of games have promoted self-play, instead of team-play. Choosing when, and if, to initiate and sacrifice your kda for a team fight is a skill upon itself.

The character cast itself is diverse and quirky, with each characters personality popping out of the screen. Some good voice acting mixed with strange character traits provides the player with loveable rogues they get attached to. The art style is very typical Gearbox, and I personally enjoy this. It may feel a bit gimmicky with the casts over-the-top personalities, and can be tiresome to hear the same cheesy voice lines from characters you personally dislike.

Overall, a very enjoyable game with friends, sometimes frustrating multiplayer, but shines through in its moments of glory when all the same pieces come together.

Found the true meaning behind DOOMguy and felt like a badass doing it...

BFG-9000/BFG-9000

It's Counter-Strike. If you own a PC, why don't you own it? If you do own it, why aren't you playing it?

After playing Red Orchestra 2 for about 10 hours, I can safely say it is the most satisfying and traumatising multiplayer game I have ever played. You feel determined to spot your enemy and put a round or two in them, defending your team. You start wanting to protect your teammates, grouping together with a few on a map and sticking together, where a death of theirs truly makes you stop a second and look at their body. This is an incredible experience, coupled with the extreme realism of an almost literal "one-hit, one-kill" policy with most rifles, make this the best multiplayer FPS I have ever played. An easy 9/10.

Great co-op game, this game is designed to be played with other players and it does the job amazingly. If you can get 3 other friends to play, hours of fun can be had. With mask, weapon and skill customisation on show, this game is only getting better with free updated content and new DLC.

The flip side to this is that it is made to be played with others, so trying to play single-player with the AI team mates takes away the best side of this game.
