Dragon Age: Origins (Collector's Edition)

By kocur | Review Date: Dec 01, 2009 | PC

this could be the game of the year. instead it appears like an outdated sequel of neverwinter nights from 2002.

dragon age origins (DAO) is a great game but it is unable to fulfill what it has promised. to get a more objective picture, i´ll take three other recent RPG games, which i consider as modern milestones of the genre, a... Read Full Review

Gothic II

By kocur | Review Date: Jan 05, 2006 | PC

It's a creme de la creme. One of the best RPGs ever made.

Gothic 2 was a surprise. A surprise how great an RPG game can be. Unfortunately, this game hasn't an adequate image and propagation, so it isn't popular enough in the US. And also the Gamespot review is quite underrated... Read Full Review

Master of Orion III

By kocur | Review Date: Dec 03, 2009 | PC

There is not a better example in killing a great and succesful series. Master of Orion 3 is the shining precedence.

This game simply doesn't deserves any better note than 1. For what? For killing the best space strategy game series? Master of Orion 2 was (and is still...) one of my most favourite games. This follower is a bad joke, a ... Read Full Review

System Shock 2

By kocur | Review Date: Dec 31, 2005 | PC

Well, after good 6 years it's now time for me to honour this great game finally! And - it remains a musical delicacy!

System Shock 2 is together with his older brother from 1994 (hunting Shodan at Citadel) still one of my absolute favourite games. Despite of the fact that the game brought me some desperate situations, especially at the ... Read Full Review

Thief: Deadly Shadows

By kocur | Review Date: Dec 31, 2005 | PC

There is no other game I would give in a review a full 10.0. Thief 3 is a world inside a world which you'll believe.

Thief 3 is simply perfect. When writing a review I always approach every game with scepticism, even my favourite ones. To be honest, I could'n find any flaw in this. There is not any. May be you could criticize the game ... Read Full Review

Drakensang: The Dark Eye

By kocur | Review Date: Aug 30, 2009 | PC

another "soft" fantasy RPG for kids or beginners who haven´t played anything better yet.

to describe drakensang in brief words: the game is weak, mediocore, unambitious. i simply can´t understand how does anyone manage to praise it with best notes. such people either don´t have a taste or enough gaming exper... Read Full Review

Sid Meier's Civilization IV

By kocur | Review Date: Dec 29, 2005 | PC

In fact, this is a city management game with some tactical additions causing a multicultural chaos.

I've been an old fan of the civ-series and playing it since 1991. The first game was simply stunning, the second great, the third terrible and the forth..., well, it was at least satisfactory, because I had no expectatio... Read Full Review
