I liked Grimrock, but wanted a space themed dungeon crawler with less puzzles. This is exactly what i found in star crawlers. the environments are varied, the characters all play very differently. The gear is quite a micromanagement but fun. the story so far 4 hours into it is interesting and they are always keeping you on your toes with story choices and reputation changes. I'm enjoying it and can't wait to play some more of it.
Was expecting an old school racer and found a weird boring drifter racing game. Really after the first race, i was bored to death. most of the time you are by yourself and you just drift by other cars with no issues. the backgrounds are the same thing over and over. I guess i was expect pole position or top gear, but it just wasn't what I expect. Let my buddy play it too and he said the same thing. Maybe i didn't make it far enough into the game, but it was a letdown and i have no want to try it again anytime soon.
Tough as nails game. Came in thinking it was a run and gun. I was sorely mistaken. Got destroyed on the first ship. You definitely have to get better with the shield, managing your weapons, better aim, and slowly and methodically going through each ship or it will take you out very quickly. At first, i would have given it 2 out of 5 just because it wasn't what i expected, but that's my own doing and after coming back a few hours later and trying it again, i was able to get a couple more ships into it and really enjoying the gameplay and the challenge. Fun game.
