    This game is super buggy, performance mode sometimes feels like a slide show, there is popping everywhere, like things just decided to appear 3 seconds after they are supposed and it breaks the inmersión. It has a lot things that makes it feel unfinished. Other than that the game is good not great, don’t buy this game at full price, you will regret it.

    Another masterpiece from Playstation Studios. This game has an amazing gameplay and mind blowing graphics. This game is very very close to Naughty Dog quality. Well done Guerilla!

    It’s taken what was brilliant with the first game and improved it 10 fold, Simply a must buy title.

    Fiel a su predecesor mejorando varios de sus aspectos, gráficamente bueno, técnicamente roto, diversión nula, argumentalmente no me atrapó en lo más mínimo. En lo jugable el mapeado del control es malísimo, algunos aspectos como el plataformeo me resultó muy cansino, a la mecánica del gancho le falta mucho pulido.

The graphics are top tier and some of the most drop dead graphics I’ve seen in a game in a while. There’s even underwater swimming now which wasn’t present in the first game.

    It's as if BOTW and Witcher III had a baby. That's all you really need to know. The animations are far improved from Zero Dawn, every side quest feels important, and i never feeling like im doing the same thing twice, even if it gives a similar result.

    Horizon has enchanted me again. After a slow start, a graphically beautiful, sophisticated sequel comes, polished in every aspect, and underscored by a great soundtrack on top of that. The sequel was simply a success. Everything that worked before works even slightly better now. [Issue#317]

    Horizon Forbidden West is Guerrilla's best game to date, taking Aloy to new heights with a blockbuster release that meets the high standards set by PlayStation in recent years. While it's totally worth fans jumping in on day one, it's perhaps better to wait a few weeks until all the bugs are ironed out.

    Horizon Forbidden West is exactly what everyone thought it would be: an amazing game. It has an open world with plenty of things to do and places to explore, fights against some really well-developed machines and stunning visuals. The feeling is that the second game of the series improves on what was already great, and it feels rewarding and fun to play. It is another single-player masterpiece from Sony.
