The Humble Bundle Experience

I came home after a long Friday. It was raining badly. Gaming news this week was slow apart from some news about GTA V. Maybe the gaming god heard me and gave me this : in one of the biggest and baddest Humble Bundles to date, 2K games is offering you 3 games for the price of only $1 . That's even cheaper than my breakfast ! 

I gave my $1 all to charity ( Yes I'm a poor kid living in the streets ) I waited for Humble Bundle to send me my keys via email. After what feels like an eternity , I finally managed to redeem all three games : Bioshock, The Darkness 2 and XCOM Declassified. Just one of this three games alone is already worth a lot more than 1 dollar. 

Of course, now you would want to hear my feedback regarding this games. Are they good ? Is the story too short? Well, I can safely say that it would be impossible to hate any of this three games. All are well polished, has a decent enough story and the gameplay doesn't feel weird. I mean, you can keep replaying XCOM just to try out different tactics. Outsmarting the enemy never gets old. 

Well, here are the brief impressions of the games :

Bioshock
  What's  not to like? An awesome story, overall good gameplay. If you loved the latest Bioshock installment, Bioshock Infinite, then you must try the first one. It's a perfect game, one that manages to capture your attention while constantly being terrifying enough. Just don't turn off the lights.

The Darkness 2
  Being a Mafia boss is cool. Having bodyguards by your side is cool. Heck you even live in a big, BIG house. I almost got lost exploring the property. The NPC chatter while you're exploring certainly lightens the atmosphere. But what's important is the gameplay, right? You don't have to worry about that - Jake has Demon heads which can destory mortals within seconds. Oh did I mention you can wield dual weapons in addition to the Demon heads? Even the Hulk would run away from that.

XCOM Declassified
  Offering a FPS experience plus managing a team of alien hunters isn't a easy task. Fortunately, this game has managed to hit the balance in XCOM : Declassified. Gamers who have played XCOM: Enemy Unknown would instantly love this game, as it manages to retain it's strategy features while also allowing you to personally shoot those aliens back where they came from. This game is the best of the bunch, with an array of weapons and also a good storyline. 

This is it for this Weekend's Spotlight folks, be sure to check in next week. Have a great weekend gaming ! Oh and before I forget, here's the link to the Humble Bundle page :  https://www.humblebundle.com/
