This is genuinely one of the best games I've ever played. In fact, "play" isn't the right word for it.... "live" perhaps.

You can't really just play it for a couple of hours and then leave it.
You play it for 18 hours a day for a week straight and then wonder why you're hungry.

Your whole life becomes factorio while playing it, and that's not entirely a bad thing -- there's ALWAYS about 10 things to do.
I need A
But to get A I need B and C
I'm making B but if i do D and E I can make B faster
To get C i need E, F and G

The list continues infinitely, I can't begin to imagine how many times I've lost my train of thought being about 20-deep in distractions.

Yes, it's incredibly time consuming to play it to its best, but seriously, it's the most rewarding experience to improve all the automation, making it more efficient to help yourself later on down the line.


And finally, as long as you figure out robots, this game features the single best inventory management system in any sandbox-like game I've ever played. Gone are the times of Minecraft when I would blindly dump items in random chests to free some space, to never find them again. With Factorio bots, AI does that for you! It's the most joyful experience to come back to main base after an excursion and watch hundreds of flying bots effortlessly manage your entire inventory perfectly.

I cannot recommend this game enough. It's an absolute steal at even 3x the price.

This is genuinely the most addictive thing I've ever experienced.
It's also one of the only multiplayer games I'm happy to play without friends around.

Everything about this game feels solid, responsive, intuitive, and satisfying

It does however come with a slow start, at least it did for me; occasionally seeing someone who could hit the ball more than a foot in the air in my first hundred hours would make them look godlike to me
Now, however, I and everyone I play with or against master the skies, and there is nothing more satisfying than hitting that ball in the air with a flying car.

The devs are awesome too, with great communication on social media, especially their sub-reddit, and introducing new content rather frequently.

Final thoughts:
It's not just a game,
It's a way of life.

Buy this game, you really won't regret it.

This has got to be one of the best games I've ever played.

Absolutely everything in it is fantastically over the top and it pulls that off spectacularly.

With enough character customisation to make the sims drool with jealousy, and vehicle customisations with it - you'll be sure to never get fed up of how you look.

The missions are amazing and keep you entertained for a decent length of time, but there are so many side missions and other stuff to do - After completing the story line i had only got 65% completion!

You can spend all the yummy money you earn on character upgrades, weapon upgrades, teammate upgrades and there's so much of that stuff to upgrade. You can even spend your money (lots of it, mind you) to make yourself invincible to all damage without ever using cheats!


You may need a relatively decent PC to run SR3, but my god it's worth it. The graphics are amazing and the lag I put up with is bearable.


All in all....Fantastic game...go and buy it...now!

Although I have not played much of this yet myself, I have watched Nerdcubed's playthrough of it and it looks like a spectacularly made game with a perfect balance of the polar opposite genres of real-time strategy and turn based strategy.

Yes, I think you should try it out - but just know that you DO need patience to play this game as it will take at least 10-15 tries to make any useful progress.
If you're unsure as to whether you should buy it, you should watch nerdcubed's videos - I love his channel and all his videos and he did a marvellous job at promoting the game during the beta stages, and although he's not a master at the game, he has completed it after at least 30 tries

Tl;dr message: Fantastically made and balanced game but you need patience if you even think about playing this

Do you enjoy games set on Mars?
Of course you do.
Do you enjoy fantastic graphics, even on the low settings?
Of course you do.
Do you enjoy the ability to smash every single object you see to bits and pieces and get rewarded for doing so?
Of course you freaking do!

As of writing this my only experience with this game was completing the first mission and watching a youtube video of highlights of the game (from nerdcubed) and it just appears to be one of the best games I've seen with a fantastic destruction system. If you want to see a game which rewards you for destroying the environment to piles of rubble this game is DEFINITELY for you!

Absolutely fantastic concept for a game - a first person shooter tower defence. I am a fan of both genres even though my skill at both are apalling.
The concept is great, however the game itself appears to try too hard in some aspects - I like to think I have an above-average quality gaming laptop but sanctum is considerably laggy and almost impossible to kill things in.

Yes, it's a fantastic game - but I may not be the best person to ask of an opinion for as I suck at these sorts of games and the lag does not help - if you have a good PC, and if you like these genres then you definitely should try it out.

Yeah, you probably won't need to see what I write to understand the sheer amount of people who enjoy this game.
Beautiful graphics, beautiful concept, enjoyable storyline, near-perfect physics, all expertly carried out.

Then, along came co-op mode and challenge mode just to add more interesting content to keep it all up to date and allow us all a highly-wanted co-op mode.

Then to add to all this awesomeness, the map editor arrived, allowing us to create and try a seeminly infinite amount of maps, making this game always have something new to behold - and some maps have been made very expertly.

I love physics games and I love puzzle games.
Quantum Conundrum achieves both of these areas spectacularly with beautifully created graphics and a comedic storyline.
Add to this a pretty awesome soundtrack and you get one of my dream games

Basically, it's a fantastic game and if you're at all a fan of physics games or puzzle games you really should try this out

This is one of the best train games I have seen.

The track building is easy, with simple train conducting and making.
Although the scenarios of railroads are near impossible (as i have found with most train games), the sandbox is extremely good, and also gives you a sense of achievement, as you still need to upgrade cities and supply areas.

Suggestions for the sandbox: Build lots of track and connect all cities before making trains; consider what I do, and set up districts of the map and connect them all with 2-4 fast-lane tracks; set the configurations to hard - though it's annoying when you have 5 trains fighting over 1 track and nowhere to build more, it's the most realistic and doesn't seem right when they all suddenly travel through each other.

Probably the biggest downsides are the lag when you build more tracks if you have a lot of tracksand the glitch which lands trains into an endless loop. At this point, delete it and remake the train...it won't fix itself.

Great game. =D

Probably my best fps game on steam (other than TF2) is borderlands. The cartoon-like graphics are innovative and always good to look at. It can be played in single player or up to 4 player online co-op, meaning that you can keep coming back for different things.
There are hundreds of missions, which means you always have something to be doing, and the weapons you use to fulfill these missions are all original and have different elements, types and all that.

All in all, a fantastic game which doesn't get boring, especially with the DLCs
