One of the best of the genre, and the updates just keep making it even better. A gorgeous time sink that I can't stop replaying!

After 14 hours across four straight days, this game completely hooked me. I’ve already seen one of its multiple endings – and it wasn’t even the canon one.

What impressed me most is how faithfully it follows Star Trek: Voyager from “Caretaker” all the way to “Endgame,” hitting the major story beats without feeling rushed. Beyond the main arcs (Scorpion, Equinox, etc.), there are tons of side missions clearly inspired by actual episodes. This isn’t just fan service – it feels like a genuine love letter to the series.

The real magic, though, is player choice. You can radically diverge from Janeway’s decisions, keep Tuvix, alter major outcomes, and reshape the journey entirely depending on your rolls. It’s built for multiple playthroughs (and yes, it leans into rogue-lite design), which makes it incredibly replayable for fans.

It’s not perfect. The visuals are rough in places, some character models look dated, there’s very little voice acting, and the heavy reliance on dice rolls can feel brutal – especially when an 85% chance fails and you lose key crew members. But even the harsh “in memoriam” screens show the developers weren’t afraid to commit to the stakes.

Despite technical shortcomings, it’s a damn good time. For Voyager fans, this is borderline holy grail territory. With stronger combat and more polish, it could’ve been an all-time great Star Trek game. As it stands, it’s a very strong effort and a genuinely fun experience.

You will answer the riddle of steel in this game. It is pure, unadulterated MASCULINE action. Amazing parallax graphics and backgrounds, show-stopper rotoscoping animations and an awesome soundtrack.

But what'll REALLY get you is the combat. Deep balance between light/heavy attacks, combos, feints, taunts, awesomely showing off your weapon makes enemies hesitant to attack you... and then there are the skills you learn. I am currently mowing through enemies with a teleport/lightning attack that is BASED and makes me feel like a God. Limbs flying, heads flying, beasts dying, you're a hunter on steroids mowing down filth.

And when you think you've mastered one character, know that 3 more await you, with different playstyles. Add to that multiplayer (co-op, invasions, all the good stuff) and randomized dungeons, and this game is a steal at full price.

Simply amazing work, HARD recommend.

One of the best dang games ever, in nearly all aspects. A truly timeless, almost unplayable in its base form, classic.

Possibly the best way to preserve these classics - the graphics are as good as they can probably get when talking about a remaster which makes it easy on the eyes while playing the originals underneath. This is preservation done right.

If you're looking for a good story representation, at least of Z then try Kakarot. If you want a solid fighting game, you're in the right place. I love both of them, Sparking is SO hype! Sparking also starts at the Saiyan saga and goes up to the end of Super, which is a fair bit further than Kakarot, plus hopefully the Daima DLC includes story missions as well on top of new characters.

Fired up a match as Broly, vs CPUs default enemy team which was Vegeta. Midway through the fight as I was wiping the floor with him, Vegeta transformed into Super Saiyan God JUST LIKE IN THE MOVIE, started turning the tables on me, and then was quickly obliterated. How can you NOT love this game?

Halo: Reach is in my top 3 Halo games. This collection is a blessing to PC gamers, and an important part of history. For what you're getting (campaign, MP, co-op, forge, theater) the price is a steal. One of the easiest recommendations I'll ever have to make.

The PC port from the 7 hours I've played (gone through Heroic campaign once already, some multiplayer, some firefight) is flawless, and brings it in line with other contemporary shooters.

Best writing I've ever seen in a game. Up there with the greats (BG2, KOTOR2, PTorment). Would make a 2nd account and buy it again at full price.
