the only game ive played that has made me take off my headphones and walk away

This is much scarier than Outlast and Outlast 2; Imma say it's the scariest game I've played, and I love horror. The puzzles are also intruiging and what you would expect from a Frictional game. I will say that the Penumbras' puzzles are more intuitive and take longer to solve though (take from that statement whatever you feel) making Amneisa a more easy-to-pick-up game.
It is however quite short and I completed all of the achievements in only 12.7 hours, but the custom story feature (which I have yet to check out fully) is sure to add many more hours of gameplay to this new favourite of mine.

Easily my favourite Grand Theft Auto game; If not for the nostalgia, for the deep yet quirky story that will have you replaying it for years to come.
Right now I'm doing my 7th playthrough of the game (1st on PC), going for my 2nd 100% completion. Thoroughly enjoying it and I'm even picking up little things I hadn't noticed on previous runs to this day. Couldn't reccomend this higher if you are a fan of the newer games and want to go back to the series roots (very good place to start) or to people who have never really sat down infront of a GTA game for longer than 6 hours before and want to know what the hype is all about.

Outlast 2 does well the opposite of what the first game does well. The first Outlast (which I loved and still do) had great atmosphere and mechanics that can really set up a good scare (like when you get thrown into the deep with the first generator puzzle) and a great but somewhat disappointing story. Outlast 2, on the other hand, has hands down one of the best stories of any game I have ever played. The pacing, mystery and execution is amazingly planned out and very effective. However, while still brilliant, I have to say the fear mechanics of the game don't stand as tall as the cramped corridors and sewers of Mount Massive Asylum. In Outlast 2 you will die. A lot. Straying from the trying not to die by dashing from locker to locker dodging the enemy gameplay of the first game, Outlast 2 goes for the "trial and error" approach for solving its riddles. The sad thing about this approach in a horror game is that it gets you so used to dying that it doesn't make you afraid of it anymore. I do have to say that near the end of the game the tension does pick up by a large amount, making you thinking on your heels and scares much more frequent. So if you are looking for more of a truly terrifying of an experience with less thought on lore, I would have to suggest the first game and its DLC over this game. Just because this game may not be as scary all around as its predecessor doesn't mean it is any less of a game. As I mentioned earlier, this game's story is so fantastic that I don't think that I have enough words to describe it. All in all I believe this game is definitely worth its price tag and is more than a worthy sequel to the original.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is by far Bethesda's most balanced RPG to date. Oozing so rich with content that even with the emense number of hours I put into this game that there is still a ton more to discover in the cracks of this stunning game. Even if you do manage to find every unique item, every book and complete every quest, Skyrim has full mod support and a bustling community that made it so you could almost never run out of content. The amzing graphical mods out there for this game also make it virtually unecessary to buy the Special Edition as with mods, the original looks better. Simply superb.

Got this game for the Zombies




Stayed in this game for the Zombies...

As a speedrunner, and a gamer in general, I love this game and it's DLC. Can now run it on insane in under 30 mins. Thoroughly recommend it as it is GREAT to speedrun, has a very well-rounded (even if the ending was a bit lack-luster) story, and it may even give you a good few scares if you let it

Owlboy is a beautiful game that feels like the gameplay of a Metroid game (without the "metroidvania" part and with flight) and the story of a Zelda game where mixed into one masterpeice. The art style is gorgeous, the music is sensational and it is one of the few games that brought a tear to my eye at its conclusion. And as a speedrunner, it is amazing that this game is also fully speed-runable.

My only negatives are that Otus (the owl you play as) moves a little too slow, so you have to resort to the dash mechanic most of the time (which lost some of the games immertion for me) and (spoiler)the ending "boss fight" against the pirate captain didnt make you feel empowered and powerful like at the end of games like Super Metroid did to make your journey seem worthwhile.

Overall this game is great for anyone and well worth the price tag.

I voted this game for the "Thought it was cool before it got a reward" Reward.

Terraria is a highly-addictive, 2-D survival game similar to Minecraft. Except, it's not similar to Minecraft at all. Terraria's massive range of blocks, items and bosses can keep players going for hudreds of hours. I have been in the Terraria community 1.0.5 and still havent experienced a Martian event! Oh, almost forgot. Speedrunning potential.

Great Bethesda RPG classic but it does need an external patch to run on a Windows OS above windows 7 :P
