had fun for like one hour and I guess that at least I learned something about pc parts

I'm a sucker for any kind of game that lets me decorate houses so House Flipper seemed right down my alley, and for the most part it was, if it wasn't so tedious and repetitive when doing certain tasks (looking at you painting).
When you actually get to renovate the houses you buy I think its when the game shine the most, its genuinely nice to go from a run down shack to a nice studio, but getting there means doing a bunch of mindless tasks for randoms.

2014
Rightfully hated when it came out because of how many staples of the franchise weren't included on the base game, and the massive step back of going from open world to lots like in sims 2 again, but I think its somewhat alright-ish now?
All the expansions released do provide some needed variety at least, and with a little modding it can truly last for a long time.
Not a terrible option right now for anyone who wants the sims experience without going back to the older games and avoiding all the technical issues that plague 3.

This could easily be the ultimate sims experience if
a) the game didn't shat itself when you try to use it with all the expansions, like expect to be on the loading screens for at least 10 minutes even if you have a modern beefy pc (the fact that they added a minigame on the loading screen tells you everything)
b) the sims didn't look so damn ugly

huge improvement over the first sims, adds a lot of things that became staples of the series both in the base game and on its multiple expansion packs
2000
absolute classic, gameplay wise might not hold up as well today in the sense that even with all the expansions it gets repetitive pretty quickly, but everything else is top tier
The boss fights are cooler than ever but in other areas it feels lacking compared to the previous games. Most of the story is told with still manga-style frames that get dull pretty quickly and it doesn't help that the plot gets really messy.
The combat is the same as it has ever been, more focused on being flashy than having actual depth, and don't expect the characters to be balanced either (kind of hard to do that when there's such a huge roster), so needless to say don't get this if you expect a "serious" fighting game.
I might be sounding kind of harsh right now but its still worth a play for anyone who has been following this franchise. When the game isn't telling the story with still frames it looks stunning, the boss fights are a treat for anyone like me who is into over the top anime fighting and the combat system is what you should be used to with some small tweaks.

Usually considered one of the worst games in the franchise but I thought it was pretty alright although I can see its flaws.
I think most of the issues come from the sheer clunkyness of its combat, its an early PS3 game and it shows. Much like Y1 and Y2 it would have benefitted from getting the Kiwami treatment rather than just a remaster. Other issues aside from combat is that some side activities like the hostess maker just plain suck.
Now on the plot side many players seem to complain that the opening is too slow and the orphanage stuff is boring, but I personally thought it was one of the highlights of the game. Seeing Kyriu trying to make a new living while also facing problems that can't just be solved by beating someone up was nice.
Overall I think it was a fine entry to the franchise, it probably won't be anyone's favorite but I don't think all the hate is deserved.

1996
very charming game that feels like an interactive 90's anime
great game, some of the flaws in the combat system preven it from being amazing for me but still 100% worth it
2013
I liked it way better than the original Uncharted trilogy
2010
Honestly I can't be too harsh on David Cage's games because at the end of the day I do get genuinely nervous that my characters are going to die or that I'm gonna get a bad outcome.
2004
Extremely fun Max Payne like game, tons of brutal kills and the coffin shootout is still top tier
2016
Surprisingly fun campaing
While the banter is still good the plot is a step down from 2, it mostly ends up feeling like a poorly connected string of events that makes you go from one set piece to another.
The gameplay is fine, mostly the same as the previous games. Its biggest strength once again lies on its bombastic set pieces, which the game pulls off quite well although none of them reach the greatness of the train sequence in 2.
Overall after playing the entire trilogy I can see the appeal of these games, but I think that for the most part they are just ok. Maybe if I had played them when they came out I would have had a different opinion.
