It gets you hyped up for a game. Not even most games today can truly capture the soundtrack of their opening cinematic. That first movie from Red Alert 2 gets you hyped as hell to play it. The music sets the tone for the entire game, even for people who haven't played it. That's how you pick the...

I liked Skyrim's theme. Nordic warriors singing like a choir praising the prophecy of the dragonborn. Now THAT is an epic song to get hyped up when you are facing a dragon in your adventures. I think it's also the song that plays during the final battle, which is fitting since it's the song in...

Got any songs in mind for GTA 4? It's all a blur to me. The soundtrack of San Andreas I can remember easily - song per song - but GTA 4 doesn't really ring any bell. I kinda remember the Russian (?) song that plays after Roman picks you up from the ship, but that's about it. In fact, I don't...

Red Alert 2. I had a terribly subpar PC and it was the only game I could play at first. Even when the standards were low I still couldn't play most games, so I played a lot of strategy games as a kid because most of them don't have high system requirements. Warcraft 3, Civ 3, Rise of Nations...

NBA 2K, I've been playing it since NBA live 2005 and the transition with NBA 2k8. Lots of gameplay changes since then; some good, some bad. They removed a lot of the fun stuff and tried to add more realism, but that's not really working for me either. What happened to just playing the game when...

I've seen the game in the queue and videos on Youtube, but it never got my attention or interest to play. I'm more focused on adventure games with lighthearted moments and action scenes. Metro didn't seem to fit the bill, so I passed on it. Can you sell me on the game? What makes it worth...

The Kaer Morhen music from the Witcher 3 is very relaxing. It makes you feel at home, and since it's played on the parts of the game where you don't combat bandits or supernatural wraiths, the game really makes you feel like this music is on a safe area where you can just roam around and enjoy...

Can't you get those games from a mobile emulator for the PC or something? I read somewhere that you can access gaming apps on emulators, which can easily be found on the internet if you looked. Apparently the gameplay is the same, but it's harder to do touchscreen stuff since you can't do that...

It's about choice. Back then there was only one way to finish a level. Well two, you either have skill or you finish it with pure luck; but still, it's about having a better replay value because you want to do another way to finish the game. You want to finish Mario? Follow the parade to the...

Their DLCs are better AND cheaper than AAA titles. They really are an amazing bunch because they create quality over quantity, and they never overcharge their fans. The Game of the Year edition is also pretty low priced considering it has the game and the DLCs. Meanwhile games like GTA even...

I mean compared to the previous games, sure, NBA 2K17 had the best commentary. Season mode and career mode, both of which are advertised as the crown jewel of the game, will have you play with the same team for a long time, and it would really drag on the commentary and would be incredibly...

Yup, and that's why Witcher 3 really ruins your gaming experience for the rest of the games. It has a lot of things right, and multiple endings is one of them. In Skyrim, you can delay your main quest until you are level 81, mastered everything, killed everyone and got away with it with bribes...

I think the multiple endings idea is great. It gives a ton of replay value to the game, and it makes sure your choices in the game matter in the bigger picture. No more blindly following orders just to get to the end. The choices, decisions, and actions you make really would define what world...

It's more like people want competition. Same with Dota 2. Everyone wants to feel a sense of superiority over other people. Release frustrations, get money by playing other accounts and raising their ranks. These online competitive games attract a certain type of people that will spend thousands...

Yes but random drops are few and far between. Same with Dota 2. You can't reply on a constant drop and the only way to get them is to constantly play the game. I don't think I have the patience to play a game repeatedly while having to deal with toxic players in the chat. That may be a great...

I don't think specs will be a problem for me (I have a 1060 6GB), my only issue is the price for the game quality ratio. But hey, it sounds great by your description, and I can't really say no to about $1.50 game. DLC is just a soundtrack though, so I'm not sure if I should pay more for just...

That's what I loved about Witcher 3. They actually got it right. They didn't rush the release, they didn't have day 1 DLCs just to make more money. They even released a lot of small DLCs with costumes and small quests for free. Most companies would have charged for each piece (ahem, Tomb Raider...

I agree, every game gets boring at one point. That's why it's always nice to run an old game up and play like you used to as a kid. I enjoy playing today's games, but once in a while I still fire up my Yuri's Revenge and just play a round or two. I swear, the games back then are so easy now. Not...

Tekken 7 was released in the PC last month, and you can use a PS4 controller with it. I thought it was pretty great considering the last one I played was Tekken 5 back in the early 2000s. The controls were fluid and the gameplay was the same as the last time. You can really feel like you're...

Contra was the last side scrolling game I have played. I never really got anywhere on it though, as I was about 10 years old and you died after taking one hit from the countless enemies going through level after level. I tried Ori and the Blind Forest lately and I thought it was mind-blowing...
