Granted I've been sticking to the more highly-rated stuff and haven't tried anything lower than three stars yet, but that has more to do with there just being so dang much to sift through. Whether it's an overly-ambitious city-spanning adventure, a more challenge-oriented romp through a spooky mansion or a straight-up reproduction of Peach's castle from "Mario 64" (yes, really), delving into user levels has been a joy so far. Take on the campaign in 4-player co-op, and dive into the fray in 16-player Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, CTF, and more-then take things to the next level by creating and sharing custom game modes.īurst blood vessels listening to a supercharged metal soundtrack by retro FPS composer Andrew Hulshult that dynamically changes gears to accompany your actions.Everything I've tried so far (an admittedly small portion of the multitudes currently available) has been a good time.
