Been meaning to buy this for the longest time and I finally pulled the trigger this Steam Sale. Great FPS and Star Wars game!

All of the Delta Squad members were great and I especially loved the back and forth banter between Sev and Scorch. My only complaints were that the enemies did tend to feel a little bullet-spongey and some weapons lacked impact.

A game that has been sitting in my Steam Library for a while and thanks to the Challenge Me picks by ninglor03, I finally found the motivation to play it. I absolutely loved it even though I got ending 4 which is probably one of the worst outcomes in the game. Definitely replaying this in the near future!

I didn’t enjoy this at all because of the clunky controls and the bullshit last level with all the stage hazards. Can’t wait to finish the rest of the games…

I thought this was way more forgiving than the first game up until the final level. Way too many enemies that can turn you lifebar from full to 3 bars in a matter of seconds.

Only game left is Double Dragon 3: The Rosetta Stone, where I’m currently on the last level.

Ah, yes, Republic Commando is a great game. I played it about a year ago and had a lot of fun with it. Glad to hear you enjoyed it as well :)

Yeah it aged really well!

Vito

True! I think it was pretty easy to give orders to your team and they mostly really did what they were supposed to do …

ninglor03

Well you started real quick with this!
Glad to read you liked Papers, Please! \o/

It helped that Papers, Please was short :)
