A very addictive, 2-player, platform game. With a nice central America theme and cool physics / movements.

This game is a game, but it is not also. It tells a story, and also doesn't. You can finish it, and also can't.
The Stanley Parable is original, surprising and addictive. You HAVE to play it.

The Greatest Game in the world! \o/

Slash the evil itself: demons and monsters, made of flesh and metal, risen directly from Hell!
Listen, play and LIVE the Heavy Metal and its world!
Interact with legends and Gods of the Heavy Metal!
Collect weapons and develop epic battle powers!
Enhance your car and its weapons, running freely through an open medieval apocalyptic world.

There are some deeper and dark parts in the story and graphics, and there is some level of gore, but not much.

It is a very fun and good looking game (in a stylized cartoonish design)!
Very much recommended for Heavy Metal, Hard Rock and Rock'n Roll fans.
Play with a controller for a better gameplay.

The game is beautiful (in it's way). I mean, there are some cozy and sunny locations, but then the twisted and disturbed parts begin. It is not a game for kids for sure: it is very deep and dark.
Everything is so detailed and it feast your eyes, and the gameplay gives you a lot of freedom of movements and agility.
I just thought some parts were excessively long and repetitive (just killing and stepping on buttons), and I missed playing more on the real world and seeing more of the reality.
It is a great game!

I don't like games where you have to study hours and read pages and pages of text before playing. In this game, you have to study MORE, read MORE, before and during the game!
Also, the battles are pure strategy and very slow.
I just find it too complex to have fun.

But for fans of HARD space sci-fi, that like strategic wars, starships, details of equipments and technology, this is a full plate.

It made me play in awe initially, but then I hoped the ending wasn't like I imagined it was... But it really was.
I have to say it is a beautiful and introspective game, but with a very frustrating ending.

Portal 2 is a marvelous journey through time and space, through mind, conscience and soul.
It envolves you in its universe, in its settings, with its characters and their stories - even if they appear very little in the game.
It's funny, inteligent and deep. A storytelling masterpiece.
Oh, and it has some cool puzzles.

Best combat / battle FPS EVER!
(But non-combat is still Portal. 😁)
