It's RTCW with tons of quality of life improvements, added weapons, upgraded textures and models, tons of difficulty options, and perhaps best of all the steam workshop which contains at least 30-40 custom campaigns/maps. There's also LOTS of achievements including some for completing some of these custom campaigns which is a huge bonus. I do prefer some of the original sound effects which have been replaced, however there is a mod called Vanilla Plus which reverts these changes and offers a more "original" RTCW experience. I cannot recommend this enough.

The second expansion for Half-Life, I found this to be more enjoyable than the first expansion "Opposing Force". It was a lot shorter and less difficult while still being enjoyable. If you need more Half-Life in your life, this is a good choice.

Sadly playing this in 2020 there are a lot of hacked lobbies. If you can find a normal lobby however, this remains as probably the most fun Call of Duty multiplayer experience.

It's more Half-Life, what do you expect?
Nice length for an expansion, not too long not too short; I beat it in about 2.5-3 hours.

Only complaint is that I found later sections RIDICULOUSLY hard. Maybe it's just me being bad, idk.

I grew up with C&C Red Alert so when I found out a Remastered Collection was coming out with that game plus the original C&C I was ecstatic. Both games are completely remastered, from cutscenes to the game itself. You even have the option to change between original and new graphics at the stroke of a key!

The first game I tried out was Red Alert and it's easily the most fun of the two games, but maybe I am a bit biased as I have never played C&C95. All of the DLC maps are included and there's even a secret set of Ant missions.

I played C&C95 second, and I found the game to be enjoyable but some things were noticable that bothered me. The game seemed to run a lot slower than RA and the campaign missions were more simplified and the maps smaller. Despite all of this, I found it interesting to play through it and compare it to RA.

Overall, highly recommended. Here's hoping for a Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge in the future.

I never actually beat this game until recently. While the hype around the game is deserved, I wasn't blown away from the experience. I did enjoy most of the game though. My favorite areas were the first ones in the game. Near the end, the level design became kind of maze-y and I found myself getting lost a lot. Maybe I'm just bad at the game? I'd recommend Half-Life either way, there is some enjoyment to be had playing it.

Serious Sam Classics: Revolution is a nice collection of the original First and Second Encounter games and ties them together nicely into a seamless experience. There are many customizable aesthetic features as well as a new campaign called "Bright Island" which features 8 new levels, new weapons, and new enemies. The level environments in Bright Island are very cool but at times you will find yourself going through large open areas with not much happening. Overall though I can't say I didn't enjoy it; if you want your Sam fix then I'd recommend it.

A harsh reminder that not everything in life goes your way.

Not much I can say. It is what it is.

As someone who played very little of the original Turok on N64, this remastered version is a great classic FPS experience. The levels are more linear and less complex than those found in Turok 2, with the final level being the only exception. I didn't find the game as interesting or captivating as Turok 2 but it's still a great experience all-around.
