A simple game where you click to place or remove colourful buildings, creating beautiful towns and islands.
The only purpose to this game is to switch off from everything else, and for that it is perfect.
Wonderful art-style, fantastic sounds, a worthy nomination for "The Sit Back And Relax" Award Dec.2021.

A simple game of trying to be productive, but some friends try everything to prevent you being productive.

Quite simply the worlds most over rated game ever (excluding Goat Sim because that isn't a game, it's an April Fools Joke.)


1. Attempt to connect to many servers, and eventually connect to one.
2. Get swarmed by people who've been playing the game for over 2 years.
3. Give up whilst you still have some sanity.

The controls are awful, the animations are cheap, graphics are awful, gameplay is unvaried, the aim is non exsistant, the servers are always full until you join of which they disappear, the maps are poorly designed and the game as a whole feels empty.

You may find some fun in this without having to spend anything. Apart from valuable life minutes which could be spent playing actual games or better still spent trying to socialize with real humans.

"You can have the Stay-Puft Marshmellow Man attack you whilst Darleks consume you're friends as you survive whilst holding a vibrator. What more do you want from a game?" - 9/10

Quite simply, the best online zombie killing experience around, and vastly improved with the added humour of mods. Having 4 mates attempting to finish one campaign on expert in one night is what I would call A Good Night In. This game makes that happen. It's just best you don't tell the one playing as Rochelle that, on your screen, she isn't wearing ""all"" of her original clothing.

Moving on, the AI can flank you unexpectedly when in a closed house and the campaigns are varied and exciting. The varied special infected add a bit of spice to the game, appreicated when you kill 1,000 of the same googly eyed night walkers. A good away of weapons means you'll find a favioute and stick with it quickly, and you'll want something powerful when in a long dark corridor.

LFD2 does come with LFD1 so be warned.

As I;ve said, mods really lighten up the gloomy apocalypse. Why get chased by a witch if you can't listen to the Benny Hill theme? There's a mod for that. What if the Hunters shot out rainbows when they flew? There's a mod for that. I could go on forever.

Anyway, get 3 mates to get it, get it as well, and enjoy a great social night in. In the dark. With a bottle of cider. Or three.

"A casual simulator, that's great for when you need to cool down after getting your brand new golden Veyron blown up by some kid on GTA Online".

First of all, for anyone wondering, no this isn't 1:1 scale. The road length is down sized a lot. You can drive from London to Paris in about 10 mins.

Your immediate thoughts are obviously going to be "why would I want to drive a truck for hours on end?" There is more to that in this game. The achievement of driving from Edinburgh to the opposite side of Italy without rolling it more than twice is very satisfying. But could this endless truckin' get boring after a while? Of course truckin' is much more fun with a friend, and the multiplayer mod is up and running, but truck racing can't keep up with Left 4 Dead 2 co-op can it?

This is a great simulator though, and the customization is almost endless. The graphics on lowest look great and run very smoothly on my windows 8 work laptop and frame rate is very consistant. The radio player is perfect for entertaining you down the M5 of course, but the Italian back-roads make up for that. That being said, it would be nice if you could buy a truck almost straight away.

Quite simply, get this in a sale and you'll have a good laugh and maybe accomplish something. 7/10.

"Best Penguin AI of the 90's. And they're killable too!"

"A superb classic shooter that puts modern Call of Duty games to shame". 7/10 (scored for modern times).

NOTE: this does work on windows 8, after an automatic install of something.

What makes a good FPS? Fear, tatics, and a community of actual men rather than badly brought up 7 year olds. This game does all of these. You can't just brush off millions of rounds to the face like in most FPS's. One shot, and you're gone. FANTASTIC! :D

Of course, the grphics are 15 years old now, same as Gran Turismo. But this makes the enemies hard to point out making the game a lot of fun. Obviously the AI are quite stupid but can be well hidden.

I eventually remembered how to start the campaign, and I have enjoyed it so far. Yes the AI won't attack from behind if you halt for too long, but, like I've said, are well hidden and won't hesitate to one-shot kill you after a stupid rookie mistake of not checking both sides of a room after entering it.

I would recommend this to anyone who wants a realistic FPS, not one with space battles and overrated lens flares. Enjoy.

Yes and No.
This game is a cheap and simple time spender which will run on any laptop from the 21st century.
However, the AI lack alot of challenge and there are times that'll you'll go off the track in first and rejoin a lap down.
But, for £1.50 the caterhams are great fun to slide around when revision is too much to bare. But Race 07 should be better...

"An extreme classic which is a fast loading time consumer where you never have a clean race."

Quite simply; Burnout with character. Burnout is all about crashing at speed, whilst Flatout 2 is much about racing with anyway possible. Whether it's smashing the opposition into trees or smashing through shops to gain nitro, every race is different, fun and action packed.

If you enjoy burnout and/or Flatout, then this is perfect. Although Flatout based around 70's American muscle derby racing, Flatout 2 expands into tuner and exotic classes and even a school bus (best vehicle in the game). This gives it more variety and a more satisfying time. Of course, being a Flatout game, the bonus games are as silly and unique as before. Only this time the stunt cars have the minor addition of jet engines. There is also a character system, which tells you who is ahead and who you just T-boned off into a river. This can cause serious grudge matches and is useful for long championships.

Overall, this game is simply an expansion of Flatout, with twice the destruction, twice the action, and of course, twice the fun.

This game is like a old version of Next Car Game. The AI crash on their own and the racing is close and fast. If you want Next Car Game but you have a simple computer then this is a great game to choose and enjoy. It's defiantly one of the classic PS2 games that I love to play again and again.
