Took mre roughly 2880 seconds to 100% the game.
Would not recommend spending alot of cash on it.
Gameplay isnt too bad. Music is kind of good actually imo.

I found out you can actually run in the game in level 21 out of 30.

Very much recommended as one of the best beat ´m up around.

Posting the review after 100% the game in 63,5 Steam-hours.
Graphics wise it's probably the best around.
Enough characters to play, they included SoR1 to 3 characters to play.
Story mode is just fun, although if you want different moves i recommend playing Survival first.
I ended up doing that last, which means, unless i play the game again, i don't really get to use the alternate moves.
With 60+ hours in i would say alot of replayability... The last few hours became quite the grind tho.

Highly recommended as classic beat 'm up

Not playing for very loong, but this game is definitely worth it on sale!

It really captures the Robocop movie. Murphy looks great, they even brought his lady partner from the movie. Just walking around solving crimes with the 80s Robocop humor is a recommendation from me.

Just say to yourself when this is on sale:
I'LL BUY THAT FOR 5 DOLLARS !!!!!!

Review after 100% the game in about 80-90 hours.

Hogwarts Legacy is basically what you would ever want from a Harry Potter game.
Ambiance, music and alot of lore towards the books/movies.
Besides a very decent story, which can be played through in a timely manner, the game shows it's a true RPG. You are on a mission, but get distracted by sidequests, pickups, Merlin trials, chests with good loot.
And the graphics are just phenomenal.
Also the way to gather ingredients to upgrade your gear is more the well done. Besides growing plants and making potions, you can have your own space for ingame beasts, which you have to nurture and take care of. From what looks like a ginea pig to your very own unicorn, it takes up time, hwich you really dont mind spending. Besides, they give the materials for your gear. But not only the caring, the so-called vivarium with your Room of Requirement, can be adjusted to your own feeling of what the beasts should be living in. Together with " upgrades" found around the world, its basically base-building, as you unlock a total of 50+ items to build with.

All in all, best Potter game i played so far.

Review after 14 hours in and completed up to pro goals in both 3+4 and unlocking solo career.

Let me start with telling how i find the changes that have been made, and the reason of most negative reviews, are positive to me.
Although THPS 4 now has a 2 minute format, it is really convienent you now can put the timer on 60 minutes. This means that even for THPS3, it was at least for me much more relaxed to finish the goals of every map. No stress of missing or not finding a SKATE letter for example.
Yes they scripped 2 maps, but the 2 added maps are insanely good and well made imo.

Although there is not much original music left (i was lucky that MY favorite, GANGSTARRRR was still there), i am really enjoying the vibe that the new music gives. Together with new maps, not quite remembering where every single goal was, i really got the feeling i was playing the old, but together a whole new Tony Hawk.
So far, really great tracks ( i do noy yet have the deluxe).

All in all, this is a really, really good Tony Hawk for me. Just made my own skater to go and have some fun in his own career. With 30+ skaters there is ALOT of replayability in the career alone. I also liked how the stat points ARE shared. Meaning you can start THPS3 maxed out stat-wise.

The unlockables are great too. There are some visual mods that make the game look even greater.

I would really like to recommend the game to anyone, skateboarding fan or not. But for an original player, started at buying THPS1 on PS1 on day 1, i did not expect they even outclassed THPs1+2 remake, but imho, they did.

Although the story may be abit short, the DLC even shorter....
The game on sale, with DLC is more, more then worth it to play.

The ambiance of the game really represents the world after the machines took over.
Gloomy, uncertain and yeah... the terminators are very well made.
Like i mentioned the story, game you may say, is abit short, it was a real hommage to the first 2, 3 Terminator movies.
Writing this review after just having finished the DLC, it left me stunned about how well written the ending, and then the whole red line of the main story, with DLC apart, is woven together. I thought it was pure brilliant, and a true hommage to the movies.
Although no real impact on how the story developes, your choices matter in the dialogues with your teammtes on how they react. Inbetween loading screens also tell the story further on the choices you made. Not bad.

Buy it on sale and you will not be dissapointed

Contra Operation Galuga is a true hommage to the earlier Contra games.
After 100% the Contra Collection, i thought it was time for Galuga.
The levels, the bosses.. such an amazing detail.
With some of the min-bosses from older games, to complete new bosses.
Together with challenges, speedrun mode and for the true diehards an insane difficulty mode.
This game had me entertained for 28 hours till 100% achievement. I still have to do some challenges.

Get the game on sale, and if you're a fan, you will have the time of your life.
Together with nowadays PC's having enough USB ports, you can play up to a team of 4.
Very fun with friends, although some may complain about not getting the good weapons haha.

Highly recommended!!

Awesome collection to have!
The games is hard, real hard.
If you need an oldskool challenge, or just a fan of run 'n gun: buy this.
Took me 19 hours to 100%

Little backstory on how i got to buy the TR 4-6 remastered trilogy.
After my last lady left me, because of TR 1-3 remaster, i came to find love in real life again.
But yesterday having planned a romantic Valentine day, dinner and evening, all i could think about was buying Tomb Raider IV- VI Remaster. So in the evening, when my lady asked: "Why are you so distracted?"
I replied honestly: "Thinking about Lara".....
So this morning i woke up alone again, but could buy this remaster the next day! Yay!!

The game itself looks great again. The devs really did a good job.
Controls are great (i prefer the old tank).
Although i own some of the original PS1 games, i haven't got to finish them.
Now I can, hell, WE can! And that with improved graphics and fps.

Only 18 minutes in, but i already know why i wanted to play the game again after all these years. Got to play it back in the day on PS1.

The game's graphics aren't top notch for a remake, but compared to the old game, it's really enjoyable. The game seems easier, but i haven't touched "Jedi" difficulty yet.

All in all i must say this is a must-have for Star War fans and gamers alike. A brilliant retrospective to the old days, put in a new jacket.
It's great you have access to all maps and characters at the beginning of the game (at least on normal difficulty)

Highly recommended
