Man, probably my fav of the games both Miranda and Zane died in my play through with was unfortunate but impactful. A good mix of the RPG elements of the first and the action Xbox 360 feel of the third. This is where the team's ideas really blossom
2007
The weakest enter in my eyes that is hemmoragged by outdated design a fun combat system with a basic but intriguing plot with some brilliant twists, the characters are okay in the first game but get far better later on. The foundation that the other games seem to have strayed away from a little.
Rough staring point at Feb- April 2021.
Man, what an adventure, the optimal way to play the series and a must-have TBH. It needs to be experienced with all three games.

The finale to an epic, I finally understand why the series is so beloved. All games in the trilogy have clear flaws, but it draws you in for an adventure that will not be forgotten. A melancholic conclusion tinged with happiness that the characters I spend 102 hours with across 3 games have concluded their ultimate goals. The combat is better than ever, but the RPG elements are lacking in key areas like stats and overall character progression, feels more like a corridor shooter now that's lost most of its charm from the first game. I'm already pining for another experience that can rival this trilogies scope and tone. Highly reccomend. (Finished at 12:03 AM)

2 Hours to beat quick and impeccably designed no filler no bad levels fun secrets a great GLados performance from the voice actor. Onto portal 2 at some point for sure!

Wow, I remember having tons of fun with this haven't completed the extra challenges and story beats that come with them, but I will if I ever delve into full body.
A tightly constructed funny moody excellent puzzle game with a familiar Altus charm and with persona esque life-sim (Kinda) moments in between puzzles where you talk and advance side quests with characters all within the confides of a local bar. Themes of love maturity life decisions ECT. All the characters were enjoyable if not that complex, and I found myself caring for their outcomes. Decisions were hard to make too, nice and tough stuff to chew on. Especially knowing it would all impact my ending.
No issues really found no bugs side content was really fun from what little I played. Great stuff, might be my 1st or 2nd favourite Altus game.

Stupidly balanced but endlessly fun - a real classic gem seemingly outshined in every way by its sequel and New Vegas, but still has an undeniable charm for being the first in the series and seeing underdeveloped ideas cooking and where they could've taken them but chose not to.

Holy hell, this game has changed since launch. Fully delivering (or making up for) on what was promised 7 years ago. As someone who didn't buy the game at launch in terms of survival games its very fun with lots of options. From being as wide as the sea as deep as a puddle to as wide as the sea and as deep as a lake maybe? Pretty deep drownable sometimes overwhelming. But a whole lotta fun scratches a space game itch that's not quite like any other. With a fun art style to boot bright and colourful.
Buggy but endlessly fun a massive game - haven't touched the DLC campings yet so almost feel wrong for writing this review, a satisfying modern take on the CRPG genre and arguably still one of the best to do it. Great characters and romances the right amount of bittersweetness to its end. All round enjoyable unique take on combat and a game I will remember far into the future.

Go in with as little knowledge as possible, you can play this or Replicant first. There's two major twists one that relies on the fact that you have played Replicant and another that relies on the fact that you haven't played Replicant. Which is a bit dumb, but it doesn't affect the game too much I wish more ARPG's had stories combat and music half this good, We have been spoiled. One of my all-time favourites.
2005
Come on, man, how do you create such a perfect John woo esqsue shooter? With J-Horror elements? Hooked me at every turn, only letdown was the samey office designs that dragged on near the end
2012
Hard as nails fun action packed top down shooter - almost felt like a puzzle game too with me dying and strategizing who and what was where and how I could use it to win.
Come on man good DLC to already masterful game? Only souls game I've gotten close to beating twice going for 100% completion.
2004
Lot of fun probably gonna go back to it if friends ever want to play buts that's all it is to me personally dumb fun. I don't have an emotional connection to it like meany my others.
