Thinking about getting a game, but not sure if it'll be any good? Ask away!


For those replying: please explain why you did or didn't like a game; constructive feedback is more informative than a simple "this game was awesome" or "that game was awful."

For those asking: it helps to know what sort of game aspects turn you on or off, and what you already know about the game you are interested in. It's hard to address "is [game] good?" if we aren't sure what you like and don't like, and whether or not you know the basic info about the game (genre, plot premise).

Useful Links:
http://www.metacritic.com/games/ <- useful insofar as you get a large sample of "professional" opinions, as well as many thoughtful and insightful user comments/ratings. Will not guarantee that you will love or hate a game you are considering purchasing/playing. Sometimes contains useful info about game problems that you can ask us here about (i.e. "I read [game] has a ton of bugs/has long loading times, are they really horribly buggy/long?").

To start the thread, is the http://store.steampowered.com/sub/6945/ and the http://store.steampowered.com/sub/8477/(Machinarium in particular) any good?

You can play some of Machinarium http://machinarium.net/demo/ if you want to try it out.

I'd say it's worth it.

Wow, the F.E.A.R. collection looks pretty good for the price. Might get it. Anyone know when the steam summer sales will be?

The FEAR collection is a very good deal, you won't regret it.

Will get it, then. :thumbsup:

Is Killing Floor any good?
