Fun game, fun shooter, runs great, looks great, the voice acting is great as I felt like everyone that provided their voice for this game had a lot of fun doing so, the game is somewhat short, but does have some replayability with New Game+ and the Vendetta Mode. I was very surprised to find out the folks who made Warframe made The Darkness 2! Now, if only someone would tell them to make a third game! That cliffhanger of an ending is KILLING ME! I also read that Nightdive Studio wants to remaster and port the first game to PC, as the only way to play it is either to have a copy of it on your Xbox 360 or PS3. You can also emulate this game, although results may vary. Overall, The Darkness 2 is a fun game that honestly still holds up pretty well! Although compared to the first game, the Darkness powers you get are much more limited, and as much as I love the Darkling in this game, it sucks you can't summon different variants of the Darkling. Also, being sent to the Psych ward is much less exciting than being sent to a hellish WW1 War landscape, despite it being a bit silly because everyone that Jackie knows is either cuckoo or a Doctor. Also, one of the games where I recommend playing with a controller as doing the Slash attack with the Darkness tendril is pretty awkward with a mouse. Still, a recommended pick-up, but ONLY when on a sale. 30 bucks for a game that came out in 2012 is pretty ludicrous. 7.5/10!!! Ello, Monkey!!!

I went into FEAR 3 thinking I was going to hate it, but turns out, I was genuinely surprised by the game. Sure, nothing will ever top the first FEAR. A game that is still amazing to this day, but compared to FEAR 2, FEAR 3 is LEAGUES better. The gunplay is fun, and the weapons actually have the "OOMPH" factor to them. The weapon roster is quite limited, but they're all fun to use, especially the dual-smg. The game looks pretty great and runs great! The story is alright aside from one retcon that they did for Pointman, but other than that, the story is passable. The horror is a lot better compared to FEAR 2. It gets pretty spooky at times, especially when you are in the level where you have to make it through a store and the suburb level. Although compared to the last two games, Alma is pretty underutilized here, but then again, she is going through labor the entire game, so I can't blame her too much for being a bit absent. The AI in this game, of course, does not feel as smart as in the first game. They're like the AI in the second, but slightly worse. I don't know. I was having a good time, so I wasn't paying too much attention to that. FEAR 3 is, however, not a long game, though. You can get through your first playthrough within a day. I know you can do a playthrough as Fettel once you finish the game, but I only played as Pointman, and there is a CO-OP mode that still works as well! I'll do another playthrough as Fettel in the future, but overall, this game is pretty good! But is it good enough to buy at full price? NO!!! Pick it up on sale. 7/10!!! The Riot shield is OP against the Phase Commander.

This DLC is not even worth a pick up even on a 2 dollar sale! THE DLC LAST 30 MINUTES!!! WHAT!?!?

Ahh FEAR 2... I will have to be honest, I did not like this game. Playing the first game and then playing this, FEAR 2 is a step down in every way from FEAR. The gunplay doesn't feel as satisfying and the weapons lack the "OOMPH" to them. I mean you know something is wrong with the gunplay when the submachine gun is somehow more accurate than the assault rifle. Like the difference in the spread is MASSIVE! The art direction took a drastic futuristic turn compared to the first game. Sure, the first game had things like the Particle Rifle, but overall, everything felt grounded. FEAR 2 is not all that scary either. Oh yeah, this game is buggy as well. I have issues where the game fails to load in textures on certain levels which makes parts of the level invisible. Reloading a checkpoint usually fixes it, but other times, you need to completely restart the game. FEAR 2 is missing sounds for a lot of the "cutscenes" in the game such as the beginning when the nuclear explosion went off, and the game tends to crash from time to time! There is just a lot wrong with FEAR 2. The DLC is just.... 10 bucks for a 30-minute experience??? THAT IS STRAIGHT THIEVERY!!! It is not even worth picking up on a sale! Which I did! For 2 bucks! It is not even worth 2 bucks! 5/10!!! But hey, at least you got an obsessive ghost waifu! I guess!

P.S. I am currently playing through FEAR 3, and I have to say, I am enjoying it way more than FEAR 2, as surprising as that is.

A game made by Monolith in 2005 that has held up to the test of time. It looks good, plays good, the gunplay is one of the best in the FPS genre in my opinion, the A.I. is surprisingly smart and tactically sound, and the horror aspect is pretty spooky and well-done! Not much else to say other than buy it, play it, and love it!!! 8.5/10! Where is my Condemned 2: Bloodshot PC port, Monolith!?!?!?

Ahh Legendary... A game that could've been LEGENDARY if it was properly handled and allowed to properly bake. The premise behind the game is awesome and unique! Pandora's box? Modern day? Mythological creatures??? I am all for it! It's just that Sparks Unlimited did not execute said premise correctly. I did some research and found out Sparks Unlimited is not a great dev company and well, it shows here. I feel like if this game was handled by anyone other than Sparks, this game would've been a gem. Unique premise aside, everything else about this game is just mediocre. The music is honestly really good! I am sure all the budget went into making the music for this game. I don't have much else to say other than to pick this game on a sale. I got this game for 89 cents and got my money's worth out of it as it is a really short game that you can finish within a day. 6/10. Oh yeah, be sure to refer to the guide for this game before you play and before you a certain point during the last level of the game as there is a game-breaking bug that will prevent progression unless you employ a fix made in the guide.

Oh, man... What can I say? Deltarune is something special. I love Undertale. I played through the game a ton and every playthrough was always a pacifist run. I could never bring myself to do the genocide run. Undertale remains one of my most favorite games of all time, and I was one of those kids who jumped on the bandwagon of hating on this game back in the day. Boy, was I proven wrong when I first played Undertale. Then, Chapters 1 and 2 were released for Deltarune. I played it on my PS5, and I had such an amazing time with the game. I love Kris, Susie, and Ralsei. The game was silly, the dialogues were silly, the "enemies" you fought (I chose to pacify and recruit all of them) were silly, and the bosses were silly. Well, some of them! Like everyone, I then waited... Waited for the years to pass by for the rest of the chapters. Then, Toby Fox announced the release date for Chapters 3 and 4 with 5, 6, and 7 as free updates! I was so excited! I then waited for the release of Chapters 3 and 4. When it happened, and I played through the whole game again, and finished Chapter 4, it was amazing. Chapters 3 and 4 continued to amaze and surprise me with their humor, character developments, surprises, and seriousness along the way. Depending on how you want to play Deltarune (I chose pacifist because THIS IS THE CORRECT WAY TO PLAY!!!), the way the world of Deltarune will react and change according to it. Since I chose to be a pacifist, there were lots of wholesome and adorable moments that happened especially between Kris, Susie, and Ralsei. You can feel their bonds deepen as you progress the game, and see how much they develop as characters. Seeing the three become the best of friends brings a warm feeling to my heart! The art and set piece of the game is simply gorgeous, and the music is SO GOOD!!! Toby continues to put out bangers after bangers. I don't want to say much as Deltarune is a game you must experience yourself as if I get into more things about the game, I am going to spoil it, and well, Deltarune is an experience worth not getting spoiled. Except for finding the secret eggs and bosses. Spoil yourself on those because Chapter 3 secret boss and egg is a PAIN IN THE ASS to complete. All in all, Deltarune was worth the way, and I can't wait to see Chapter 5 next year, and the rest of the game down the line.

A Doom: Eternal review: Very good game. Fast-paced, gory, bloody action! Movement is very nice and fluid! Levels are great and look great! Doomguy look cool and badass! Is a big socially awkward nerd. Is adorable. Want to give him hug. Weapons are fun and satisfying to use. Feels very rewarding when you get the weapon swap combo down! Issue is that some weapon mods feel somewhat useless to use like the microwave beam and auto mod for pumpy shotty. Also, am sad you don't get to use the crucible much as you get it near the end of the game, and you have no way to refill its uses besides crucible charge pick-ups. Big sad because Crucible cool. Why no recharge like chainsaw??? Fights are fun. Boss fights are fun. Everything fun. Music elevate game. Mick Gordon Gigachad. Music includes chainsaws. Ancient Gods DLCs are poo poo. Pick up on BIG sale or not all. Better to just watch videos of DLCs because they are poo poo. But Sentient Hammer cool. To new player, it okay to play on Normal and have fun. You bought it, you play however. No listen to dum dum DOOM elitists who tells you to play on Ultra-nightmare. Do it when ready or do it not! It okay! Have fun! Game fun! Life Good. DOOM Eternal 8.5/10!!! DLCs still poo poo.

I gave my review of The Ancient Gods - Part 1, and long story short, I didn't like it very much. Part 2 of The Ancient Gods is marginally better. I think the one main thing that made me really Part 2 was the backdrops especially when Doomguy enters the World Spear and the final battle where all of his allies enter through portals to enter Immora. It was BADASS!!! And the second thing I like about the DLC is the Sentinel Hammer. At first, I thought it was redundant, but I discovered how powerful the extended stun the hammer can place on enemies makes it quite powerful to where if you are fast enough, you can stun a marauder, stun him again with the hammer, and just combo switch weapons to kill him before he even has time to get out of the stun and react. Also, the lore added, and the resolution to Doomguy's story (till we get the next game). However, besides that, you can apply the same issues with Part 1 to Part 2 albeit the sizes of the arenas in Part 2 are more open. The game introduces "new" enemies that force you to deal with them a certain way like the Stone Imps where you either have to use the hammer, the pump shotgun with the auto mod, or chainsaw them. It just breaks the flow of the combat as you pretty much have to focus on these enemies first and have to deal with them in the aforementioned way. The final boss of the DLC is cool in appearance but is literally a marauder with extra steps, and he heals if he manages to hit you. PRETTY UNDERWHELMING BOSS FIGHT! Overall, not much else to say. I personally don't recommend The Ancient Gods DLCs unless you are a fan of DOOM and are looking for more DOOM content (that is honestly just not very enjoyable), and even then, only pick it up on a sale, just watch a playthrough for The Ancient Gods. 6.7/10. Oh yeah, whoever at Id Software thought the screecher zombies, and the Cursed Prowlers were a good idea, I hope you get fired and blacklisted from the gaming industry. WHO IN THE WORLD THOUGHT AN ENEMY TAKING AWAY A CORE MOVEMENT MECHANIC OF THE GAME WHEN IT HITS YOU WAS A GOOD IDEA TO ADD TO THE GAME!?!?!

The best way to describe The Ancient Gods - Part One: Let's make the arenas really small, spawn in a bunch of enemies all at once, and laugh at player as they do this multiple time during the DLC. Also, we added a new enemy in the game that forces the player to deal with it in a SPECIFIC way while making the enemy it possesses be on STEROIDS, disrupting the flow of Doom Eternal's fast-pace combat!!! Oh yeah, we will also make the final boss of the DLC really ANNOYING!!! It's a 5.5/10 experience. At least it provides some cool lore and a resolution to the Eternal's story line. There's that, I guess.
