OGRYN BEST

ROCK'N STONE!

Great comic becomes a fantastic rail shooter adaptation of the style and storyline. If you enjoy a bit of humor in your random gun violence or just like seeing a well made game in action (at a great price) you can't go wrong with this one.

If you enjoyed the Batman Arkham series and you enjoy the LoTR storyline and setting you will like this game. Combat is fun and a bit crazy. Depending on the situation you could find yourself going from complete domination to completely getting your butt handed to you in a matter of moments. Not super hard difficulty wise but you can make it harder on yourself if you want to rush into every combat unprepared. Great graphics and solid voiceacting make it a fun place to spend time slaying orcs.

Fun SP and Co-op gameplay. Everything you would expect from modern Splinter Cell games. Some of the customization seems a bit silly (do I really need to unlock 12 pairs of gloves??) but the level design and multiple routes to victory are worth experiencing.

The MP is not so good. Matchmaking is a joke, commonly pairing me at level 2 with another player at level 1 or 2 against a pair of opponents level 24+. Not fun. Not a good way to introduce new players or teach them the game. Also it takes forever to find a game and even though you can't "quit" once you start people just drop out of your team as soon as things go south.

So recommended for SP but not for MP gameplay.

Looking for a way to kill many (MANY) hours of your life? May I recommend Starbound? Like to dig holes? Cool. Like to build things with things you steal or dig up? Alright. Like to smash monsters and aliens in the head with sticks? Got that covered. Fly all over the galaxy in your spaceship building sweet alien-hunting-intergalactic-badass pads as you go. Not sure what else to say really...

Cool concept, fairly solid execution, and the kind of fun you just don't find in many FPS games. Take to the skies and co-operate to vanquish your enemies... with CANNONS. Only downside is the low player count makes finding a server with players and not bots in it a bit of a struggle. Of course if more people played that issue would go away!!

Tons of melee weilding fun here! The combat has great weight to it and there is a button bound to screaming like a madman. SCREAMING. You can't beat it.... or can you (with a giant hammer)??

Guns, guts, guvs, and plenty of slow motion carnage. What more could you ask for?
