One of my favourite FF games. I've spent over 200 hours in this game and I haven't even touched the Endwalker expansion yet. The story is great, the exploration is unmatched and the endless quests and play styles are amazing.

I love this little game! It is so charming and fun to explore. The climbing mechanic is really well done and has me on the edge of my seat all the time. Once the main goal of growing the plant is complete the additional challenges are a great way to return and explore some more.

My only complaint is there has been no new levels. I really saw this as a great game to introduce new planets as DLC. I would have defnieitly bought more. Fingers crossed for a sequel.

I see a lot of people complaining about the fact there is only one level here. I was a little skeptical of the episodic release of the game so I started off but just purchasing the intro pack. I am now going to purchase the full game upgrade because I have enjoyed it so much.

I actually think the episode structure works for this game. It gives you some incentive to master the level. To play the game as intended and find every single option available. If I had the other levels right now I would probably just move on afer I had finished the first assassination.

The gameplay itself is really well done. The improvements made to stealth are great and give you a much clearer view of when you're in trouble. The amount of options is pretty immense and after first feeling overwhelmed you gradually learn the level with each playthrough giving you more insight into how to perfect your assassinations.

As of writing this review I have 16hrs on record and I feel I have alot more to discover. I haven't even touched contracts mode and some of the challenges seem impossible right now. I know though the more I play the more I will discover. In my opinion people complaining this is "Just one level" really need to look at how much fun gameplay is in this one level and judge it by that and the fact there is five more levels like this on the way. There is easily going to be over 100hrs of gameplay overall.


I am now looking forward to the next episodes.

Far Cry 2 is my favourite of the series so Far. The biggest draw is the atmosphere the game generates. There are not many games that can produce that feeling of being there but Far Cry2 is way up there in my opinion.

The gameplay is pretty brutal and often unforgiving. You don't get many fast travel oportunities, the outpost regenerate, you have malaria and you are conastantly trying to survive but I really like it and since the release of FarCry3 I have found that brutality actually adds to the experience as a whole.

It lacks a lot of the polish of FC3 but is an incredible game like no other.

Good Game. I came to Origins quite late having heard negative reviews and I haven't encountered the many problems people list in other reviews. They're is the odd glitch here and there but I had no game breaking bugs and played though first time no issue.

The actual game is also pretty decent. My main issue is with it being a little too similar to Arkham City. There are some little improvements and additions but it doesn't really change much.

The story was good and in my opinion was more enjoyable than the majority of the story in City.

Overall an enjoyable game and if you can get it at a cheaper price point then it is worth buying even if it is just more of the same.

Simply EPIC!

I bought this on the PC after playing for over a hundred hours on PS3. Now on the PC it is again my most played game. There is so much to do and see it is unreal.

The feeling of immersion is pretty much unmatched and the world is beautiful.

Tomb Raider is a thouroghly enjoyable game. I have played through the story several times and each time had just as much fun as the last.
Gameplay is more akin to Uncharted than previous Tomb Raider games but honestly I think it works perfectly.

My only criticism would be to add more "tombs" and exploring oportunities with hidden missions etc. This doesn't take away from the game but it would be a nice addition to have more to do once the story ends.
