CS:GO Review
I've wasted so much money on this game, more money than I've ever spent on really anything except for my computer. I've also wasted more time on this game than I have on any other that I've ever played. This game is a must-have though considering it's current popularity, and it's not that bad of a game if you don't get sucked in like I did. There isn't really anything that I've found truly remarkable about this game. The graphics are decent but not insanely good which is not a bad thing because it makes the game more viable for competitive play. The gameplay is obviously important in a FPS, and it's alright. There are things that'll happen to you in the game which you can accept, but I slam my desk 47.5% of the times I die. A lot of people might say at first glance that this game has an amazing community but that's not true at all. The game's community is absolutely awful and in every competitive match I play now I end up muting the entire enemy team. Yeah, there might be some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥s playing this game, but there are a lot of stupid people too. I swear to you though that at least 80% of people currently playing this game are toxic, mentally ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, or both. You most likely have heard about the weapon skins in this game already, and I'm guessing that you'd like to get your hands on them. I'd highly recommend not, as you will lose a lot of money in any way in which they are involved. By saying this I would of course exclude the idea of getting free dropped items (which can be acquired randomly by playing on official Valve servers and waiting until the end of the match) which you can sell on the Steam Market. Talking about the game in general though, I'd say it's pretty good as long as you don't get too involved or too sucked in. If you want to get good at this game and you're new, I'd recommend learning the layout of all of the Active Duty maps (a list of these maps can easily be found online) and callouts for specific locations on them, watching videos which give important tips and tricks for how to play the game in general and for combat, watching professional matches, finding out which settings are the most comfortable for you (settings = crosshair, viewmodel, sensitivity, etc.), learning how to use the weapons, practicing your aim, and playing unranked pugs. However, my most important tip would be to take breaks and not play too much.

I give this game a 7/10.

Early Access Review
The music in this game is unique, and I'd say that it's sort of catchy. The gameplay is very smooth, and I love the feel of the high movement speed given to all players. It goes very well with the maps which are just rooms that the player sees in a larger perspective because they're playing as a rat. I feel that it's a brilliant idea, actually. Something that I get annoyed with in most first-person-shooters is registry. The railguns in this game (which are the only guns) always kill with one shot, and I feel like I can fairly accpet that when I did not hit an enemy I missed and the registry isn't absolute ♥♥♥♥ (*cough cough* CS:GO). The game is easy to run with graphics that aren't ugly but aren't outstanding. The game looks very clean, but it doesn't have a lot of detail. The game also lacks content, and by content I mean gamemodes, maps, customization, etc. Another thing that it lacks is player count. There unfortunately aren't many people that play Ratz Instagib at the moment, and many of the few that do are insanely skilled. Sometimes I will hop on and see that there are literally zero players currently playing on the NA servers, and then when there are players playing they're usually gods. If the developers added more content and if more people played this game, it would be a masterpiece in my eyes. I wouldn't say that it's totally worth the money, but I do enjoy it!

I give this game a rating of 7.5/10.

Grand Theft Auto V has so many things to offer. Let me start off by talking about the general information.

The music played on the radio in this game may surprise you, especially if you're into Rap like me. For example, you might hear a couple of tunes by N.W.A. on the West Coast Classics station. The background music provided by Rockstar fits really well. It doesn't give a certain vibe that many people may not like. It also fits the situation you are in. For the most part, it is just electronic, but sometimes the music changes mood for example when you're being chased by cops.

The graphics are very nice, but the issue with them is that they make the game difficult to play. This is, of course, for low-medium budget gaming PC users. If you want to max out the graphics on this game and get a solid count of 60 frames per second on average, then you're gonna need a beast of a computer. I am currently running the game on an AMD FX-6300 with 3.5 GHz and six cores. With medium-high settings enabled in 1920x1080, my frames per second can vary. If I am driving down central Los Santos in my new whip, I might get around 20-40. If I'm cruising in a low-populated area with not much activity, I can probably get 40-60. If I am just chilling in the crib, I can easily reach 60. In combat, it can vary, because it depends where I am. It doesn't matter though because the game is playable to me in pretty much all situations.

The gameplay is fine, but not amazing. It works smoothly and I haven't seemed to notice any bugs or issues, but nothing has really stood out to me.

This game has so much content, which is why I currently like this game so much. There is endless customization, that is for weapons, attire, vehicles, etc. The Single Player mode provides plenty of missions for you to complete with unexpectingly hilarious dialogue and interesting characters. The Multiplayer mode provides you with all kinds of things to do. In Free Roam, you can hang out and mess around with friends, steal cars, rob stores, fight other players, and more. In Multiplayer you can also do all different kinds of jobs as well as heists. Heists are where you can get most of your money, so I recommend doing them frequently if you want to get rich. Unfortunately though, the community of GTA Online is basically the definition of cancer. You have those five-year-olds constantly asking you to meet up with them at the airport, bloodthirsty ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ who will keep hunting you down just so that they can kill you and take your $100 (which is almost nothing in GTA V), and worst of all, hackers. The hackers in this game are the scum of the earth. I don't mind them using it only by affecting themselves, but when they mess with other players, it ruins the fun makes you not want to play Grand Theft Auto at all. Try not to be too annoying in the voice chat because those ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ will figure out who you are and ♥♥♥♥ with you for the rest of your time playing until the next time you hop on (meaning that the effects that they use against you can be removed by the rebooting of the game). They are merciless, and they will most likely never stop harassing you. Sometimes they'll bother you even if you're not annoying them in any way.

I give this game a rating of 8.5/10.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is one of my favorite video games of all time. I started off playing this game on Xbox 360, and when I got a gaming PC, I realized how much better it is on PC because of the various mods and additional preferences of course. To be honest though, I even think that the game is great without mods. I really enjoy the game for the setting, character life and role, exploration, various in-game items (weapons, armor, etc.), (sometimes funny) experiences and encounters, and the lore. If you're going to be modding Skyrim though, and if I had to recommend a mod to you, I'd recommend that you install an ENB preset, because it will dramatically improve the graphics and visuals of Skryim. Well, I can't entirely promise that, as it really depends on which ENB you install. It is one of the tougher types of mods to set up unfortunately, but it's worth taking the extra time to learn how to install them. Only do this though if you have a medium-high level gaming PC because it will require a lot of power, and once again it really depends on which ENB you install. If you're wondering which one I use (if you have seen my screenshots of this game) I use RealVision ENB. Some other mods I'd recommend are Immersive Weapons and Immersive Armor (adds new/more weapons and armor to Skryim), Bandolier (adds craftable clothing which can be used to increase your carry weight limit), Weightless Dragon Bones and Scales (makes dragon bones and scales have no weight, which is very useful because they are very heavy and valuable!), and Dragon Souls to Perk Points (allows the player to convert dragon souls which can be acquired by slaying dragons to perk points which are used to give the player enhancements and new perks in certain skills). If there is something though about this game that upsets you, there is usually a mod that you can find that can make that aspect of the game better! I decided not to directly review the graphics, gameplay, etc. in this review because of that.

The DLCs in my opinion are not necessary because you are already provided with plenty of hours of gameplay without them. The only one I did purchase was Hearthfire because it's cheap and I'm poor and to be honest I really enjoy it! (it allows you to build your own house and adds a small amount of extra gameplay time) If you're on a budget though and you're not sure if you should go the extra mile by purchasing the DLCs, I'd say not to because you don't really need them that much and they're quite expensive. If you're looking to get more content out of the game though, there are mods which give you new quests and sometimes even new places to explore!

I'd give this game a 9.5/10, I highly recommend it!

I heard that this was the first game made by whoever created this. I must say, you should make more games, because I had a great time with this one!

The music is catchy, the graphics aare "meh" (but for a game like this it doesn't matter), the gameplay is "meh" as well (but this is a strategy game, so that doesn't really qualify), but the features in this game are awesome! For the games that you create (if you did not know already that you make video games in this game) there are custom engines, many topics for games, graphical upgrades, and more! Also, a thing I really like about this game is the progression and how you slowly build a larger and larger business out of your game creation and how you are introduced to the new features as you play through.

I have to admit that I usually don't play strategy games, but out of the ones I've played, this is one of the best!

I give this game 7.5/10.
