If you ever wanted an exhaustive map break down for everything Halo, this will do the trick. I'm kind of shocked just how many maps there are. I don't think I'll personally ever use it but it was a nice pre-order bonus.

I wish that this came out and was perfect but the truth is they really dropped the ball on the multiplayer. It was impossible to find matches when it was released though I've had better luck the last few times I've tried. Hopefully people will continue to try playing and not abandon it. Seeing the Halo games running at 1080p at 60fps is really great though!

I've enjoyed the Dark Souls games and this one pretty much takes everything from those and runs with it. It's a little less obtuse than the souls series but also the acting isn't great and the story is just kinda meh. However the actions feels good and they pacthed it recently to fixed the bad screen tearing it had when it first came out. Bottom line, it's a fun game if you need something to tide you over till Bloodborne comes out.
You are Talion, Ranger of the Black Gate. For what seems like eons, you have guarded the entrance to Mordor, keeping watch over Sauron's undisturbed dwelling place with relative uneventfulness. But in the blink of an eye, everything you hold dear is snatched from your grasp. Your family, your friends ~ even your very life is taken from you in one fell swoop that leaves your soul desolate and filled with an eternal rage. Resurrected by an unforgiving spirit, you have one purpose to your life, one thing that keeps your heart pumping and your mind from giving in to the relentless grief ~ vengeance. Prepare yourself to embark on a dogged vendetta that calls upon you to fight your way through Mordor and uncover the truth of the spirit who compels you. This epic tale of revenge and redemption transforms you into the most feared force in the land ~ the Shadow of Mordor.Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor delivers a dynamic game environment where the player orchestrates their personal plan of vengeance as they bend Mordor to their will. The game begins on the night of Sauron's return to Mordor, as his Black Captains brutally execute the Rangers of the Black Gate. Players become Talion, a ranger who loses his family and everything he holds dear, only to be returned from death by a mysterious Spirit of vengeance. Based on the player's actions with the in-game Nemesis System, every enemy encountered is distinct and can evolve to become a personal archenemy through the course of the game. As Talion's personal vendetta unfolds, players uncover the mystery of the Spirit that compels him, discover the origin of the Rings of Power and confront the ultimate nemesis.

The nemesis system is by far the coolest thing about this game. Having enemies move up the ranks and make you feel like your actions are actually affecting the story of the game is something I've always wanted to see. It appears that thanks to the new console hardware we can finally have this kind of dynamic gameplay. The combat feels just as good as the Batman games and the graphics are gorgeous. It's just a game that feels really good to play and keeps you coming back. I can't recommend it enough!
As you take in the pleasant view outside your window, it's hard to fathom that it could all be swept away in the blink of an eye. For Artyom, however, there's no need to imagine ~ after the devastation of an apocalyptic event, the only hope for salvation lies in the darkness deep beneath Moscow in the underground. The Metro franchise introduced you to Artyom's world as you plunged into the survival horror genre with Metro 2033, then kept you riveted in the action-packed follow-up, Metro: Last Night. Now, get ready to return to the terror and brutality that defines this hellish world on a first-person shooter thrill ride that tests your will to survive in every way.Metro Redux includes Metro 2033, the terrifying first chapter of Artyom's struggle for survival in the ruins of his city, as well as Metro: Last Night, the heart-pounding continuation. The nightmare begins in Metro 2033 as Artyom, a survivor of an apocalyptic event 20 years in the past, is forced to leave the relative safety of Moscow's underground and emerge into a world populated by murderous mutants and full of toxicity and danger around every corner. As if the world outside wasn't horrific enough, Metro: Last Light brings the terror underground as Artyom struggles to save humanity as it perches on the edge of civil war and ultimate destruction. Struggle for survival armed only with homemade weapons and your trusty gasmask as you fight your way through two action-saturated campaigns with all-new melee animations, plus hours of thrilling DLC. Immerse yourself in the bleak world of post-apocalyptic Moscow with stunning imagery rendered in silky smooth 60 fps, as well as new lighting, physics, dynamic weather effects and full-body player animations. Take charge with improved AI, controls and weapon handling and easily check your watch and ammo supplies on the fly. Prepare yourself for slow-burning intensity in Survival mode, or duke it out in brutal combat in Spartan mode. Rise to the ultimate challenge as you wage deadlier battles with fewer resources and without the benefit of HUD or UI in Ranger mode. The odds are bad and the stakes are high ~ do you have what it takes to save what's left of the world?

The Metro series is very underrated and builds an amazing world that really feels concrete and alive with the characters who live in it. The new visuals look and run fantastic on my PS4 and I like how they added in a more action style gameplay option to Metro 2033.

What's great about it: Great visuals updated for a new generation of consoles and updated gameplay
What's not so great: Would have liked an added motion blur effect like the PC version
