So... Payback. When it launched it got hated for it's speedcards system, but now? Honestly, it's a pretty fun game. I had a good time, the driving's fun and the campaign is long enough to give you stuff to do, but not too long to get boring. But of course, Payback is far from perfect, and it has some glaring issues. This includes: speedcards (Yes, they still suck), the reset system (janky as hell, and it never feels right) and the main gripe, the offroad physics. They are atrocious, and i never got used to them throughout the whole career. Your car understeers and oversteers depending on it's mood, and some of the offroad races will literally turn you into the joker.

That being said. despite it's shortcomings, it's a good game. Definetly better than 2015. Play it if you got it, if you don't buy it on sale, it's fun :)

The 3rd and final part of Purrfect Apawcalypse is definetly the best part of the whole series. Even though it's probably more linear than the other games, it feels a lot more open and the switch up from VN to point and click is really great and adds some fresh air to the gameplay. The art as always is superb and there were even some funny jokes in the mix. I think out of the 3, this one is the one most worth playing, but again i wouldn't say the game is particularly amazing, it's just plain nice, and you'd have to go through 2 mediocre games to fully get the story in this one. So you're not missing out on much, but if you already have it in your library and don't mind some short mediocre games, i'd suggest giving the series a try.

Part 2 of Purrfect Apawcalypse is definetly an improvement over the first game, though it does feel more linear compared to it. In the end though, i think it still falls into the same pitfalls as the same game. The runtime is similar, and while the story is more interesting, it's still not really great. The art is once again superb, but the game's just extremely forgettable. Again, i'd have to say, not bad, not good, just plain mediocre. It's fine to play, but you won't miss out on anything by not trying it.

Sooo.... Purrfect Apawcalypse. It's a game, it has really lovely art, and that's the best i can say. It's not bad per se, just very mediocre and short, nothing really funny or interesting happens, and you get an hour or two worth of gameplay for the price. It's plain ok, maybe worth buying on sale, but you aren't missing out on anything by not playing it. If i could, i would not give this either a thumbs up or a thumbs down.

It's truly unbelievable how good this game is, Popcap was truly a titan of the casual games industry, and this game was made near their peak. Buy it right now, it's worth it.

Lucius is a decently fun early 2010s puzzle game, the animations have not aged very well, but the overall presentation and graphics still look fine. The puzzles however... for the first part of the game they are fine, maybe even too easy, then the last few decide to go for the goofiest ever solutions, resulting in turning to a guide, or running around the house trying to figure out what to do. Still though, for the price, and for the length, Lucius is very much worth buying :)

Y'know, Turnip Boy is one of the best examples of what i want from an indie game, a short concise story, with solid gameplay that doesn't take itself too seriously and knows perfectly what to do to keep the player engaged. I don't want 60 hours of mediocrity, i want more of these 2 hour amazing experiences that are at their 100% all the way through.

In short, buy this game right now, it's amazing.

Coming into DR3 i hadn't really played any other DR game, and i gotta say, looks like i've been missing out. DR3 is absolutely superb, walking the fine line between too easy to have fun, and too difficult to not have any fun. You'll have fun mowing down zombies like they're nothing, but once you're out on foot, brother, you better hope you got some stamina or some good crowd weapons. Then the goofy weapons, clothing and collectibles just add to the charm, and even if they aren't all chuckle worthy, they at least never delve into cringy levels of design. Then there's also the story which.... is there. It's not exactly very good, but at least you can tell an attempt was made, and it never feels half-assed, even if the plot is a bit bad. It's enough to keep you moving forward, and gives you something to work towards which is the least you'd want, and something some games seem to misunderstand.

To sum it all up, DR3 doesn't overstay it's welcome, and offers a fun experience that delivers for 100% of it's runtime. It's worth a buy for sure :)

They really made a mental illness collect em all game

I don't really know what to say here, i played this game for a decent bit and i just wasn't feeling it at all. I loved Heat, and this just feels like such a downgrade compared to that game, the stakes aren't as strong, the music has gotten even worse and the story is just... meh. Maybe it's just a me issue, but this game feels like it's trying so hard to be hip and "cool with da kidz", that it completely misses the mark in making an actually good game. A real shame, as Heat had built some great groundwork, and just needed a better story. Well, i guess until the next game then...
