This is a neat redone version of Duke Nukem even if it doesn't have the other expansions.

It's a nice nod to the first two Terminator movies.

What can I say about this game? It's one of the many examples on how to revive old-school first person shooters and bring them into modern day gaming. This game (along with other games like the Shadow Warrior reboot and Wolfenstein: The New Order) shows how that can happen. It's a nice break from a genre saturated with Call of Duty and it's various games.

Plot: You are the Doom Slayer, a badass from another world who went to Hell and back but got placed in a tomb. You are freed from your tomb and go into a base in Mars where a corporation (mega corporations never learn about unleashing terrors and the negative impact it has) opens a portal to Hell and uses their energy for a new energy resource. Unfortunately, a greedy scientist makes a pact with demons for power in exchange for slaughter. Pick up a shotgun and go to Hell and back!

It defintely goes back to old school first person shooter style with health and armor counters along with non-reloadbale weapons (with the exception of the double barreled Super Shotgun) and shooting demons up. The soundtrack for this game is perfect as you rip demons apart with gory kills and heavy metal to accompany it. There are plenty of nods to the old Doom games like finding a lever which unlocks part of the level to see the old levels from the first Doom as well as other cool easter eggs.

The only thing I could find negative about it is it's graphics heavy and sometimes the game will freeze but the music will stay play so you'll have to reboot on occasion.

Overall, it was a blast playing this game. If you're sick of FPS games like Call of Duty, give this one a try.

This game is a mixed bag for me with more negative thoughts than positive.

It's essentially a multiplayer game where you and other players play as camp counselors trying to avoid Jason and escape or you play as Jason Voorhees, the unstoppable killer from the Friday the 13th series. It was a Kickstarter game.

I'll go with the positives:

1. It's a great representation of the movies with the environment and music.
2. They got back veterans of the series like Harry Manfredini to do the music and Kane Hodder to play Jason again.
3. The look and feel is defintely 1980's as when the Friday films came out
4. You can play as the different versions of Jason with the exception of Freddy vs Jason, Jason X and the reboot due to rights issues and Part 4 because it's just the Part 3 outift with an axe mark to the mask. Great job with attention to detail on the Jasons.

With the negatives now:

1. The developers and moderators can ban you for the slightest offense. I learned about this after playing.
2. You don't get to pick to play who you want as a counselor or Jason, it's always random
3. Sometimes players will kill themselves as counselors and that takes away the fun of playing as Jason.
4. The community is very toxic especially online

The next one is a big one that made me stop playing:

5. Exclusive DLC: This has divided the community a lot. Basically, an original version of Jason designed by Tom Savini was made as an exclusive gift for those who backed the game in Kickstarter and as an extra for backerkit. The developers made it clear that this version of Jason would never be sold at all and it's clearly the gamer's fault for not knowing about it in their minds. Somehow, Microsoft and Sony managed to get ahold of it. It's also made the people who got it very arrogant and elitist as they have a Jason that is clearly good and most people (like me) who pre-ordered it can't have it. Also, the DLC was put up for sale on eBay.

The developers pretty much said "You should've know about this game and bought the Jason, tough ♥♥♥♥ you missed out"

The developers should've known they were playing with fire when they did this.

I've never been a fan of exclusive DLC.

6. Bugs: The game can get very buggy at times. I still haven't been able to unlock achievements no matter what I did.

Overall, you can choose to buy and play it, but at your own discretion.
