So far, it's the most refined RPG Bethesda has released. All of their cornerstone mechanics (lockpicking, dialogue, open world/emergent gameplay, character progression, etc) are all on show, operating at top level, better than ever. 25 hours in, the story has been a slow burn, in fact the beginning of the game is probably the most "slow burn" start for any of their games, but Starfield is showing itself as a game with a depth and nuance above anything they've released in the past. It's not perfect; on PC there could be better optimization and while being, by far, their most bug free launch, you'll still run into a bug here or there. It delivers on exactly what they said it was; a Sci-Fi RPG. It delivers on it in abundance. Besides it's few technical issues, it's an excellent game.

The launch was rocky with the game being slightly buggy/unoptimized. The content is there and I think with a couple of patches it'll be up the standard. Compared to large companies like Ubisoft that release games like AC: Unity, Hello Games has done a very good job with such a small dev team. $60 is a steep price for the game at the moment, but if they update it and add content like they say they will, then in a couple of months it should be more than worth it's money. Thumbs up by me.

Even in early access, Tripwire has set up Killing Floor 2 with an amazing foundation to grow upon. With their amazing post-release content support, KF2 is a sure fire purchase for any fan of the first game and an easy early-access purchase to not be weary about if you're new to the series.

For PC, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare takes what all other previous Call of Duty's were lacking and adds in that extra oomph. Exceedingly well optimized for PC, a sprawling options menu and nice little touches like an FoV slider and shader caching really add to the brevity at which Sledgehammer has worked to make a legitimate PC Port. The Exo suit and all it brings with it, gives the all too familiar Call of Duty game-play, a second wind. Between being an excellent PC port, legitimately good additions to the game-play and the single player/Co-Op being excellent as usual, it truly is hard to deny that this year's Call of Duty might just be worth the price.


Pros:

Tons of customization, through unlocks and challenges.

A very pretty game graphically and very well optimized on PC, from what I've seen.

Solid Gameplay.

Sledgehammer did well porting the game to PC.

Cons:

Peer-to-Peer matchmaking instead of dedicated servers. I haven't had a problem with it yet, but this is what most people complain about.

The $60 price tag when combined with the season pass. This argument goes for any game that does it (Battlefield, Assassin's Creed, etc) and isn't anything specific to Call of Duty.


Honestly the biggest shame is that there isn't more people playing it. For it to be the first Call of Duty game created by Sledgehammer, I think it's a very worthwhile endeavor and it's a shame that it's not being purchased more because of the bad taste left in player's mouths from Ghosts (Which was made by Infinity Ward).
