The irony about this game being a horror genre is that... when you feel lonely, this is a place you can come to feel like you're not.

Late to the hype, however, the residual community in this game is one of the most wholesome ones I've seen. The community is friendly, and the players I've met by far, are always friendly to my friends and I despite our noobie shenanigans.

As someone who does not watch horror movies at all, I can safely say, this is a game you can adapt to. Given a couple of days, you'll be shaking from laughter instead of fear. The developers of this game are also still working on it, and from a friend's experience, they do actively help you with your issues.

I'll give this a thumbs up - better with friends.

Halo MCC - A Halo for new and returning players.
For those out there in search for nostalgia, this is your stop.
For those who are looking for a story, an adventure to dive into, Halo is definitely worth a shot.

With its amazing soundtrack, improved graphics, patches and updates, Halo MCC is now playable and more immersive. It's gonna be worth the experience bois.

Phases you'll transition to in this game:
"Wow cute af"
"This is fun"
"Aw come on man"
*Exit and requeue*

"This map again?!!!"
"These guys what the heck are they doing"

Even if you're new to flight simulators, this game is definitely the one you should hop into. As someone who has never played any prior sim-games, this is very newbie-friendly. After a few days of practice I was able to disable most of the assistance and enjoyed flying on my own. The graphics is gorgeous when you fly from a distance, especially the nightlights and cockpits. Some areas are still pretty scuffed but developers are adding more detailed updates each day, so no worries about that in the long-run.

More detailed landmarks are being added into the marketplace, so this kinda means that you gotta have enough space in your SSDs to download them if you want better looking buildings and textures. I'd say the biggest concern about this game, is your GPU to make this game look beautiful as it can be, and the space of your SSD.

I'm glad a literal game of the "whole wide world" actually came out in our lifetime. Give this first of a kind a shot if you have the bucks to spare!

Yes, even if you are a first-timer or ain't good at souls-like games like Dark Souls, BUY THIS. This review is coming from someone who was terrible at and did not complete Dark Souls 3. It was my first and only souls-like game and it wasn't my type. Didn't manage to get to mid-game and I already got tired of it. Therefore, I didn't expect to enjoy Sekiro.

However, Sekiro is different. Its in a league of its own.

I stand corrected, to have grown to love Sekiro. Where it shines is in its combat system. It's fast-paced mechanics and intricate combat system rather than the typical dodging and rolling was a breath of fresh air. It hooked me with its speed. The amazing graphics alongside the satisfying sword-action actually made me feel like I was learning. I saw myself progress like a protagonist, someone from being utter trash, evolving into a guy who sped through the game's bosses to attain the second ending. Each and every fight pumps you up with adrenaline, and as you grow to understand the bosses, HO that feeling is sick. You feel legendary.

This game incorporates many styles of combat arts and even items that you can use which has vibrant visual effects. Imagine your blade having a purple or red flame, or your body on blue-fire. The mix of kanji within the effects of the game made it very authentic in terms of its Japanese foundation, which also made power-ups feel like power-ups. There are also Shinobi Prosthetic tools which fits in seamlessly and perfectly with the game. Each of them having their own purposes and unique in their usage. You could even upgrade them to defend against potent elements from enemies. Side note: Using these shinobi prosthetic tools FEELS great. When I draw them out, it literally reminds me of some anime moments, basically living up to its fictional background.

If you get stuck, there are plenty of videos out there that can guide you along the way, from finding places to tips on defeating bosses. So no worries about being at a stalemate. However, it takes time to get used to the mechanics of the game. Hence, don't get frustrated and start 'CHEESING' your way through, because you've paid to experience this game's fights to its fullest. Once you've got your foundation straight, you've got this champ.

All in all, whether you're new or bad at this genre, or even if you have played souls-like games before, Sekiro is definitely a hit that is worth trying. It's really something else and cannot be compared to the other games. Its story, visuals and most importantly, its fights.

10/10, for a game of this genre, I saw a side of me I never thought lived within me.

Best open-world game on the market right now to play with your friends, and even alone. No games come close in terms of similarity or versatility. You're basically living your second-life ideally in this game.

2019 Review of the Year
CS:GO never failed to be a game that brings out the 7 deadly sins in me. I've met grils, drooled over skins, broke a headset because I was pissed, acted like an arrogant fool and also, treated the game as if its my job. In fact, CS isn't just a game when you really get into it, it becomes a competitive hobby.

Calling it a passion is a stretch, depending on what country you come from, as for me, I probably have not much of a future pursuing professional CS. However, this is still an awesome game.

For ninety minutes of your life, you and 4 other teammates have to out-game the opponents. There are times when you will be out-classed, times when you receive incompetent teammates who are rude af, but all these can never surpass the pure satisfaction of landing AWP flicks, spray transfer and one-deags with the Deagle. The in-game mechanics, simple yet sophisticated, easy to learn yet tough to master, are qualities that keep this game going after so many years.

For whoever is looking for what is, the best competitive FPS game out there, CS:GO is the game for you. Especially if you have friends to play this with, then its perfect. Do bear with the occasional smurfs, hackers and mean teammates though. Other than that, it really is a game worth paying 20 bucks for, to reduce the hackers in your games.

You will go on a journey of self-development, learning values that will actually impact you in real-life. Such as teamwork, being a understanding leader and patience. Have fun, comrades! :)

Note: I'm a first-timer to the Final Fantasy franchise, just playing the game as a standalone one.

Hands down the best RPG I've ever played. Personally, I've played Witcher 3 and Skyrim, but FFXV clearly surpasses them in terms of the story and character attachment. I've never felt so connected with the characters and actually felt upset to part with them.

Fights were awesome, especially towards the end of the game where there were multiple boss fights, it felt epic. They incorporated story cleverly into every fight and honestly it touched my heart, making me feel like crying as I knew the game was coming to an end. I'm not fond of extra-difficult games like Dark Souls, so this was perfect for me. A mix of challenge and a versatile combat system. It felt great knowing I can handle bosses since it was challenging, but it never did frustrate me. Seeing your characters grow and yourself getting better felt satisfying.

Story, well, it is the best one I've ever encountered. Every ally and villain made deep impressions, in fact, no character was pointless. So many moments where I just wanted to shed tears, I guess this is why they said this is one of the saddest Final Fantasy games. Not sad in a way where everyone dies, but sad because of the backstory and touching moments. Amazing soundtrack usage by the way. I had to pause the game just to Shazam them. Also, as mentioned earlier, the story is cleverly incorporated into some of the fights.

Scenery was beautiful, like I took 4,000 screenshots throughout the game. There were some scenes or gameplay I didn't want to forget, so I just had to spam F12 continuously, still missed an important one though :( sigh! 3 years later when I look back, I'll probably shed a tear.

Sidequests and Hunting are rather unique. I've only done 1 hunt and it basically feels like a Monster Hunter boss fight. Its huge, its badass and they are all different. Loved how they incorporated this as a side/leisure activity, so I could focus on the main story which was what enticed me.

The director did a good job, pulled off some smart gimmicks towards the end of the game that left an iconic impression in my mind. All in all, 25 hours of goodness.

This game will forever be one of my top favourites. :)

A very good secondary game with friends to play while you're talking a break from a game you main. The game doesn't get boring unless you burnout yourself by playing hours on top of hours at a go.

-Review: 8/10-
Started out being a little baffled that it has a 60FPS cap. However, I/my eyes got used to it very quickly as I progressed the game. As you dwell deeper into the game, you start feeling like Keanu Reeves in The Matrix and the stages get increasingly fun as it picks up the pace in the later stages. Definitely worth a buy for 3-4 hours of fun.

Also, would love to have community maps/mods for the future updates.
