Over the past 20 years I have played literally thousands of games. And with that experience I have readily concluded that THE WITCHER III IS THE BEST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED. By far.

It is a game made in RPG heaven!

Once more, you step into the boots of one of the most memorable characters, Geralt of Rivia, an enhanced human monster-slayer for-hire.
The deep story of the previous two games continues as you have now regained your memory, strive to rebuilt your life, recruit fickle alies, face sworn enemies and suffer angel-faced traitors. The complex world of The Witcher is populated by the best and the worst - and every shade in between.
As wheels turn within wheels, your choices matter as they take the story along with them.

One can not praise this game enough but I will tell you this: never had I ever snapped more screenshots in any other game. It is a joy to experience, an experience to savour, and a beauty to behold.

Excellent in-game mechanics, breathtaking images, epic music and a very absorbing story.

WITH MY HIGHEST RECOMMENDATIONS!

What a game! I have been playing this for years almost every summer (with the exception of the one summer I experimented with Windows 10 that refused to run it - yeah, definetely not for gamers). And the game shines today as it did when released - and it never ceases to be fun.

My only complaint is that this game just begs for a MODing library, especially for custom-made maps. They can still be installed but not as easy it was with the non-STEAM version.

If I wanted to infect my computer with Uplay, I would go to Ubisoft's site and hand my administratior's rights over to their spyware. But I do not. That is why I have stopped buying Ubisoft games.

Apparently, so have many other gamers as well. And that is why Ubisoft had to rely on underhanded methods to fluf up their numbers - such as sneaking Uplay even with STEAM games! That's right, buying this game on STEAM will net you, not one but TWO layers of DRM. And the second one is prone to failing which means it will lock you out of the game you paid for.

So, do not be fooled like I was: EXTREME Uplay WARNING!

Great game, easily the best of the series.

And you do not have to put up with all the SJW crap they creeped into Borderlands 2 and hit you over the head with in the Pre-Sequel.

Now, if only the invetory was of a more decent size...

An absolutely amazing game that has received a modern update and can now be enjoyed by the younger generation.

Also, it will teach them why games sushc as these are still Boss.

Great FPS game!

Impressive weapons,
innovative Time manipulation,
mild physical puzzles (similar to HalfLife),
memorable story,
historically creative,
still impressive visuals.

A game you WILL play.

I have been playing Civilization ever since the very first Sid Meyer's game. This iteration retains none of the original character and spirit of the series. Yet this failure is not the game's worse flaw.


The moment any game franchise fails victim to TAKE TWO, it will be diluted beyond recognition and sold in an endless line of thin and tasteless DLC slices. If someone was stupid enough to buy this game and all its DLCs at their original price, it would cost him close to 500$. And yet this greed is still not the game's worse flaw.


Civilization V is an utter failure because it hangs, it crashes, it freezes, it refuses to launch. Without warning and without reason. Before any company shill (and 2K has a number on retainer) wants to throw the "check your specs" argument, over the years I have tried to run this PoS-of-a-game on WinXP, Win7 Professional (32 and 64bit) and Win10 Professional (64bit) on a nVidia 1060GTX and 12GB of RAM. The very same problems persist.

Clearly, it is not a hardware issue. It is the lazy and shoddy work done by the developer.


It used to be that beloved game series died and came back as barely recognizable zombies whenever EA took over.
Apparently TAKE TWO and 2K GAMES are giving EA a run for their money on this.

This an amazing game. It looks like a mobile phone game but it trully shines on a PC.

Easy to learn, fun to master. Paying (for lunch boxes, Nuke-Cola and Pet-cages) will make the game complete the tasks faster but you do not really have to do this. This may be one of the very rare honestly free-to-play games. Nevertheless, Bethesda does deserve money for this, so try to be generous with them. And because no one is come to raid your base while you are gone, your success and failures are all your doing.

It is addicitive but it is usually run in 20-30 minute sessions so it is easy to fit in any schedule.

Highly recommended!

I can live with cheesy dialogue and paper-thin story as along as the action is well done. After all, this is a gravity-defying Lara Croft game. As a Third-Person shooter it is not bad. However, it is very awkward to play.

Because what is inexcusable, in 2016, is the inability to remap the control keys when more than half of all gamers favor the right side of the keyboard, using the arrow keys and remaping everything else around them.

Not even worth the 99c.

This sad excuse of a game is a one trick pony that tries to immitate DOOM 3 - and fails. Miserably.
The zombies are boring.
The environments are generic and copy/pasted all over.
They even managed to screw up the classic clear-the-level/buy-upgrades/repeat.

And to top all off, this POS managed to freeze my Win10 64bit PC. I had not used the reset button for years.
