Overture is very short at 5-6 hours. The benefit of that is that the middle stretch isn't terribly long by any means, so in a way, Overture benefits from its short runtime.- CPUGamer

From the beginning of the game, till the ending, I was relatively pleased with how important and impactful the decisions I made were.- CPUGamer

The worst thing about this game, I thought, was that it was so difficult.- CPUGamer

A gripping story, brutal violence at times (well, machine violence), superb graphics, and clever adult humor are all things this game shares with "Alice." Repetitive flying and ship battles with too few on-foot missions add negatively to the game.- CPUGamer

The move to vibrant, fully-realized 3D hasn’t altered the formula at all.- CPUGamer

Serious Sam 3 might not be for everyone, but it's the type of game that made first-person shooters a genre all their own, and serious – at the risk of abusing the word – gamers should absolutely give this game, if not the whole series, a serious look.- CPUGamer

Probably the best soundtrack ever produced for a game.- CPUGamer

The interplay between mounted and dismounted soldiers, archers, knights, and the wide array of possible troops and equipment means that Mount & Blade has some of the coolest, most engrossing combat of any RPG ever.- CPUGamer

It’s all slick and runs flawlessly, and fans of the series will love the improvements. On the other hand, if you don’t like slow, turn-based strategy games, there’s nothing here that will change your mind.- CPUGamer

I’d like to thank BugBear for finally spending the time to deliver a fantastic damage model in a racing game.- CPUGamer

Even a child not old enough to read can still play this, as the most crucial instructions are given verbally (with text reminders onscreen). The game is legitimately fun, gives real animal knowledge (unlike say, the pseudo-animal knowledge of Pokemon), there’s plenty to like, and absolutely nothing objectionable, and very few games fit that bill today.- CPUGamer

One of the biggest differences in this game is that you exert a lot of control over your main character.- CPUGamer

This game does nothing to besmirch the Godfather’s impressive legacy – in fact, its use of the license is arguably its greatest strength.- CPUGamer

Long-term value is one of the many deciding factors in purchasing this game. It’s already receiving more content, it’s cheap, and it’s really good about killing stuff. Buying Killing Floor is easily one of the best purchasing decisions you can make this year.- CPUGamer

The in-game music was a semi-prehistoric rendering that was appropriate for the certain settings in which the game takes place.- CPUGamer

The learning curve gets steep rather quickly and some of the levels will require ridiculously good timing in order to advance. In fact, the difficulty swings back and forth so often that it almost feels like two separate games.- CPUGamer

Half the fun of this game is building an effective, focused force piece by piece using artifacts and levels-up, as well as shrewd tactical choices.- CPUGamer

Sherlock Holmes: Nemesis has its share of faults, but overall it’s a solid game in the adventure genre. The characters and setting are very believable, the story of the hunt for Lupin is compelling, and the puzzles are challenging.- CPUGamer

The Music that runs off the Blue-Shift CD. It kicks in at the worst times, and resembles circus music.- CPUGamer

Not only did I enjoy the game but it makes me want to read, or at least do some research on, Mr. Jules Verne.- CPUGamer

3D is very helpful for squeezing metro stops in between buildings and examining your spaghetti mess of underground metro tunnels.- CPUGamer

Overall, Brink is a game which could have been a genre favourite at launch, but due to some developer oversights, such as the lack of an extensive beta, the unfinished nature of the initial release have turned many potential fans away.- CPUGamer

For ten dollars, I had enough content to enjoy myself and certainly liked it more than some of the other Fallout related DLC I have completed in the past.- CPUGamer

A fairly satisfying game for the genre, and the solo campaign wraps up in an afternoon or two of play – really about all an arcade game of this type needs.- CPUGamer
