The game is free to play

You'll be able to create your own games and play without paying for anything. Though they do have virtual currency that they call Robux, which you have to buy with real cash. You only have to do so if you want to upgrade the look of your avatar or get optional in-game power-ups. Like with most games, if you have the patience you can additional items over time, then you don't have to spend a dime. See More

Top Con

Unbalanced system for reporting

You can be banned for saying tit accidentally, but sexual predators can make new accounts and continue to harass you. Unbalanced. See More

I would have the devs of this game sued if it was my choice See More

Enjoy creating and playing your own game or thousands of other games available

You can create your own original game and play it, and have others play your game too. As of 2017, Roblox has over 500,000 game creators designing games. That's a lot of games made by players like you, so you'll never run out of options on what to play. See More

Top Con

Dodgy careers off-platform

Kids are also convinced they can make money by making games and it is done OFF PLATFORM, with no moderation or protection for IP and content created. See More

Tanakitty 's Experience

This is no joke See More

Top Con

Bad financing model for kids

Everything is paid for with real money and people hike the prices up to thousands of dollars after sales. See More

HITMAN

Top Pro

Interactive environments

More so than previous games in the series, Hitman has many objects in the game that can be tampered or interacted with. But before the player can there is usually a tool that will need to be found that allows this. Which means more time spent in the level trying to find and interact with objects in the environment, which can draw the player in and immerse them. See More

Top Con

DRM issues

While playing single player, if the player looses connection to the games servers (through their own internet going down or the servers going down) the game will boot the player back to the start screen, meaning any advancement made in the game will be lost. To see this happen in single player is an issue as there is no need to be constantly connected online for the consumer and is only a detriment to the player if anything goes wrong. This is of course a single player only game, there is no need for it to be always online, especially considering it already uses a different DRM scheme called Denuvo. Being always online means anyone who lives with spotty internet will have trouble with the game. It also means that you do not own the game even after purchasing as when the servers inevitably are shut down this single player game will be unplayable. See More

Steam Rating:Very Positive

Hiding in plain sight is intuitive

The game allows for players to easily hide in plain sight such as disguising oneself as a model at a show, which gives the player access to anywhere they would need to go. This is expanded upon by having a hint system that points the player in many directions of how to hide easily (for those unfamiliar), which makes for a good game even for those that have not player or are unfamiliar with the gameplay. See More

Top Con

First chapter does not offer a ton of content

Much of the content in the first chapter are a bunch of training levels that are represented as being done on a set of some kind, giving a feeling of not being real. The problem here is that there is little in the way of giving a feeling of wanting to revisit these training levels, which drastically cuts down on the playable content in this chapter. See More

Top Pro

Replayability through escalation missions and player contracts

Once the main level and objective is complete players can then move on to escalation missions or player created contracts. Escalation missions are new objectives given to the player that set them on a path of new people to assassinate. Within that objective will be constraints such as what outfits that need to be worn. This makes for a raised difficulty thanks to the restraints as well as a good way to stretch out each episode, considering there is only one level to play in. The player contracts are similar to this but allow the player to choose who their target is and what constraints to put in place, making for an endless list of possibilities in a particular level. See More

Top Con

Too many unknowns to pay full price

Hitman is an episodic game with only the first chapter released so far. To purchase this single chapter costs only $14.99. For those that want to purchase the future chapters there is a choice to pay $59.99. Being that the other chapters are unreleased, it is difficult to know know what the quality will be or even if they will be completed. Seeing that the gaming industry has had issues in the past with delivering promised content it may be a good idea to wait till everything is released in order to pay the full price that is asked. Luckily by that time the game will also be cheaper. See More

Top Pro

Tons of choice

Each episodic level for the game will be basically a big sandbox, allowing the player to complete their task in any way they see fit. This makes for a good game to just play around and test ideas out in as many different scenarios can be played out, even multiple times to best ones time or score. See More

Top Con

PS4 loading times

The PS4 has extremely long load times in the game, which really detracts from the game as well as breaks immersion in the story. See More

The Sims 4

Top Con

Expensive

Has perhaps one of the largest DLC collections of any game which comes at a cost of thousands. See More

Top Pro

Tone of silliness easy to manage

Depending on the players choices tone may be set to a degree. So players wanting a less silly story to their game may do so by making rational choices during the game. See More

Specs

Genre:Life Simulation

Top Con

Clipping

Characters can sometimes clip each other when trying to navigate the same path, which results in a loss of immersion for the player and shows a laziness of design. See More

Top Pro

Emotions mechanic gives a feeling of realism

Emotions replaces the old system of traits. Using emotions to regulate how sims behave does feel more natural to a way a person would behave making for a more realistic feeling simulation. This allows the player to feel more immersed in the game. See More

Top Con

Missing features that were in previous versions

The Sims 4 is missing a lot of features and options that were in previous version making the title feel unfinished or rushed. Of course it all could be a ploy to sell these features to the consumer at a later date basically making the users pay for the games content piecemeal. See More

Top Pro

Build tools, best in the series

The Sims 4 offers the best build tools in the series making it even easier to design and furnish their homes. See More

Top Con

Too many loading screens

There are way too many jarring loading screens when trying to navigate The Sims 4 small world. See More

Top Pro

Customizable maps

Users can change plots on the map to build different kinds of building such as cafes. Giving the player more depth and customization options to their world creates a more enveloped playing experience. See More

Top Pro

Easy cloud sharing

A new feature, cloud sharing is very useful for those that like to share their designs or download other players. From other sims to house patterns and layouts all can be shared or downloaded for use in game. See More

Top Pro

Multiple active tasks in queue

Unlike previous versions, The Sims 4 allows for multiple active tasks to be performed from the queue at the same time as long as they are physically possible. See More

Destiny: The Taken King - Legendary Edition

Top Pro

Created by Bungie, a well known studio for making quality games

Created by the same company that created Halo, this spiritual successor has the familiar feel with some refined game play and the polish and quality you'd expect. The DLC coming out with Taken King has also been good, and expand on the game quite nicely. See More

Top Con

Imbalanced multiplayer

While stats from gear is equalized during multiplayer, perks from legendary weapons and armor give a real advantage to players who have put in more time. Not a problem that makes it unplayable, but newer players might get frustrated when skill is not the only factor. See More

Top Pro

MMO experience

An MMO experience in a FPS game; Bungie has done quite well with making attaining gear and weapons enjoyable through single and multiplayer content. Taken King made the grind much less of a chore and more enjoyable as well, and made the whole leveling process better with refinements to all aspects of the game. See More
