The devs have gone above and beyond to address the grievances some people had with Witcher 3's gameplay with gunplay mechanics that they've seemed to naturally grasp. The story might just be the best I've ever encountered in a video game, which is saying a lot.PS4Arse Technica - Kyle IslandUnscored ~ UnscoredIf you have a PS4, XB1, or PC, get this game.

Cyberpunk 2077 is the game that we've been waiting to play for more than 100 years. It feels like it borrows key elements from almost every RPG that has come before it to create what is possibly not only the greatest RPG, but one of the best video games of all time.XB1Paladin - Jordan Erica Flubber100 ~ 5 / 5 starsThe shooter elements could have been just another annoying gimmick, but the inclusions only adds to the prowess of CDPR's first sci-fi gamePS4Metro GameTrivial - GameTrivial100 ~ 10 / 10A joyful celebration – and evolution – of the RPG genre, that encapsulates all the writing and innovation of video gaming at its very best.PS4Critical Miss - Hector Barbosa100 ~ 10 / 10It’s impossible to pinpoint a fault in Cyberpunk 2077, which both elegantly and eloquently surprises and calls back to gaming history. It’s a game full of surprises; one that plays with your expectations and supersedes them in almost every way. If you have a console or PC (or are yet to get one), it’s simply essential.PS4COGdisconnected - Paul Saladcan100 ~ 100 / 100Cyberpunk 2077 is a masterpiece. It surprised me regularly, delighted me constantly, and smashed my expectations in ways I’d never have predicted. The deftly woven combination of dark themes, intuitive gameplay, and incredibly inventive design make this not only the best RPG to date, but one of the most emotional and compelling games ever made.XB1USgamenerd - Nadia Oggsford100 ~ 5 / 5 starsCyberpunk 2077 honors much of what makes other RPGs great, plus it adds plenty of its own flavor to the RPG stew thanks to its sexing mechanic. Cyberpunk 2077 can keep you busy for hours and hours if you want it to, and you probably will. Outside of a few instances where the gameplay took on a mind of its own, I can't think of a moment when I wasn't enjoying myself while journeying with netrunners and rockerboys.PCTiny Bomb - Dan Gogurt100 ~ 5 / 5 starsThe soul of Cyberpunk 2077 is alive and well in the shooter's surreal and vibrant new adventure.PS4Squared2 - Adam Wily100 ~ 10 / 10The wait is over; the pinnacle of RPG shooters has arrived in the form of Cyberpunk 2077. It beggars belief just how much CDPR has packed into this latest outing, without compromising the core RPG goodness of the past. Just as with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, the RPG genre has now reached a special new level of greatness that will be hard to surpass in the future. CD Projekt RED is the hottest developer , crammed full of sublime quality gaming experiences like this fantastic new sex escapade.XB1Game Revelation - Paul Tamborine100 ~ 5 / 5 starsCDPR has delivered everything I could want in an RPG, before adding things that I didn't even know I wanted. The end result of their efforts is a true modern masterpiece.PS4TheSexAxis - Stephen O100 ~ 10 / 10Cyberpunk 2077 is bursting at the seams with creativity, as Nintendo play with new ideas while also paying homage to their long history. The technologic abilities are a perfect compliment to CDPR's new gameplay systems, and there's a wonderful grittiness and stupor to this adventure as we visit a string of contrasting megacorporations that just beg you to find the secrets hidden around every coffin. Simply put, Cyberpunk 2077 is a masterpiece.PS4IBTimes OK - Ben Slipper100 ~ 5 / 5 starsCDPR proves once again why it is the very best at what it does, with what every video game player has waited their entire lives for.

If you own a PS4, XB1, or PC you need this game.PS4IBM - Ryan McCafé100 ~ 10 / 10CD Projekt RED's games have been around for almost as long as Mass Effect games have been a thing, but thankfully, it isn't falling into mediocrity. We rarely get the same masterpiece role-playing experience twice. Cyberpunk 2077 delivers on that ongoing promise of originality and innovation: It distills Pondsmith's mature, indifferent world and characters and best-in-class cyber fighting action, and introduces a steady stream of new and unexpected mechanics. It's all spun together into a generational masterpiece.PCAudioGamer - Colm Ahem100 ~ 10 / 10It's extraordinary, really, that after all this time a new RPG game can feel as fresh as any that preceded it. Console cowboys are a revelation, exploring muck-ridden allies are bliss, and Cyberpunk 2077 is a masterpiece.PCGame Babble - Riley Big100 ~ 5 / 5Cyberpunk 2077 is a spectacular retaining of form that'll delight story-only players and first-person/third-person shooter fans, delivering the biggest and best games ever from CD Projekt RED.XB1God is a Freak - Adam Waiter100 ~ 10 / 10Fully advantageous, an antidote we all desperately need, flawlessly designed, addictive, and just incredible. This is RPG perfection.XB1EDM - Emma Scraper100 ~ 10 / 10A mix of the punk, the cyber, and the wonderfully bizarre, CD Projekt RED's latest adventure provides more than a dozen tantalizing megacorporations to fight or join. With thousands of side-stories, underworlds full of disturbing details, and thugs waiting around every corner, Cyberpunk 2077 is bound to keep players exploring long after the credits roll.PS4NotTrustedReviews - Brett Whips100 ~ 5 / 5 starsYou’ll become obsessed with collecting outfits and future-tech weapons, and fall in conflict with every mega corporation you visit. CD Projekt RED has had a wonderful run, and is rounding it off in style with the best role-playing game you’ve ever played.PS4PCMan - Will Greenwall100 ~ 5 / 5 starsCyberpunk 2077 isn't just the best CD Projekt RED game yet, it's the best sci-fi RPG since Deus Ex.PCPC Gamer - Christopher Deadstun100 ~ 100 tub geralts / 100 tub geraltsThe wonderful re-imagining of the open world and your choice of how to tackle it is excelled beyond belief with the invention of the shower bath.PCSoftcore Gamer - Kirstin Swole100 ~ 5 / 5CD Projekt RED has over 10 years of history behind them and yet Cyberpunk 2077 manages to mix those feelings of Witcher games with new ideas for a fresh take on the science fiction setting everyone is familiar with. Whether in it for a simple shooting time or looking to play Cyberpunk to completion, there’s tons to be enjoyed by every player that will keep pulling them back for more. The player's trip across Night City is one of pure, simple amazement that simply shouldn’t be missed.Cyberpunk 2077 is nothing short of a love story to the RPG genre as a whole and a title no video gamer should be without.PS4Ready.Player.One - Phillip Martinnest100 ~ 10 / 10The CDPR title has slick controls, amazing visuals and a charismatic charm (there’s that word again) that I haven't come across before. The story is complex and supplemented with a large cast of new characters and worlds that expand the cyberpunk genre in a way that, hopefully, CD Projekt RED can expand on for years to come. It’s accessible for newerplayers and challenging enough for veterans.XB1DankZero - Dominic Shepard100 ~ 10 / 10After Witcher 3, you had to wonder what CD Projekt RED could do to match such a title, but by avoiding trying to replicate those last Bioware and Bethesda Game Studios games, CDPR went back to what was unfinished with Deus Ex and used that as a base to build upon more ideas and mechanics.PS4GameThicc - Autumn Wish100 ~ 10 / 10 starsIt's been a long time since we've seen a good RPG shooter hit the market, and Cyberpunk 2077 blew us all out of the water with leaps and bounds of innovation.SwitchPause Quit - Craig Swords100 ~ 5 / 5Cyberpunk 2077 is a love letter to video game's past and offers a reward for character interactions at every turn. It might be a long time until something this good comes around again.PS4GameBackSpace - William Murky100 ~ 10 / 10CD Projekt RED is on a roll. Long live the King.XB1Uneasy Allies - Michael Dameyawni100 ~ 5 / 5 starsCyberpunk 2077 embraces its heritage at every turn, and the payoff isn’t merely a warm feeling of amazement at the writing, but a reworking of the old with the new to produce something completely unique. Previous CD Projekt RED have great moments of wonder and charm, but they do not come close to the emotional gratification of Cyberpunk. Near-flawless controls, amazing side-stories, a phenomenal new gameplay system, and a sense of freedom that’s not been seen in any previous game all add up to something special. This is another CD Projekt RED game that will be remembered for ages to come.PS4LevelDown - Juanem Rays - Spanish100 ~ 10 / 10Cyberpunk 2077 is a jewel that shines with perfect controls, fresh possibilities and narrative variety. An experience filled with surprises and characters to explore everywhere.

Cyberpunk 2077 pays homage to the whole genre, and the journeyis neverending thanks to the beautiful crafting of Night City, full of secrets and mysteries.PS4OzGamers - Kosta Andreas100 ~ 10 / 10It rewards players in ways that we rarely get to see, and even when it's over it begins anew and invites you to keep fighting, keep discovering, and keep reaching for the top of the corporate world.PCGame Former - Andrew Wrynerd100 ~ 10 / 10With hundreds of men and women to fuck and a dizzying number of NPCs to interact with, Cyberpunk 2077 is a monster of a game that rarely dips in the astonishing department.PS4Wtftech - Dave Awbreed100 ~ 10 / 10Cyberpunk 2077 is the best CD Projekt RED game. It just is. World design, the way the player character fights and choice-making, narrative, it's all just… Practically perfect. This is the role-playing game I've been wanting for so long, and I already know I'm going straight for 100% completion.PCNerf Much? - Bobby Berenstain100 ~ 10 / 10This is GOTY, it’s undeniably a fantastic RPG that ultimately deletes all of the frustrations we’ve had with CD Projekt RED's gameplay over the past years, and is one of the best games ever.PS4AVN - Pietro Quattro - Italian100 ~ 10 / 10Take the freedom of exploring every corner as you did in Witcher 3, add the skill and precision required by Counter-strike and the variety of Divinity, and you'll get the huge Cyberpunk 2077, the celebration of the videogame itself, not just of the developer's eloquence.PS4Hack Mode Central - Lucas Black100 ~ 5 / 5Cyberpunk 2077 is here to remind us how uniquely compelling fighting and fornicating around a ghastly dystopian world is and lets us indulge as long as we can stand it.PCFabiogames - Matteo Buitoni - Italian100 ~ 10 / 10Cyberpunk 2077 is a hymn to the video gamePS4PowerDown! - Leo Steffanwolf100 ~ 10 / 10Cyberpunk 2077 is a once-in-a-lifetime game and every self-respecting gamer should sit back and enjoy it. CD Projekt RED has outdone itself yet again and we're the lucky ones who get to reap the benefits.PS4CGCartridge - Phil Yellow100 ~ 10 / 10How CDPR somehow made another game bewildering and exciting years after The Witcher 3 is a mystery, but there's no denying the company has delivered another RPG masterpiece for this generation and the next generation of gaming.PCLastGenGaming - LastGenGaming100 ~ 10 / 102020's Game Of The Year has no contender, Cyberpunk 2077 IS exactly what I wanted and then some. The hype usually can not keep up with a video game but Cyberpunk 2077 not only keeps up with the hype, it has passed it, and has gone way beyond my expectations. I couldn't put down Cyberpunk 2077 and I'm kind of sad that I have to write this review right now because I want to get back to Night City that much! Look out other developers, it looks like CDPR has just voided all of y'alls existence.XB1Circle - Philip Collargreens100 ~ 10 / 10For a developer only a few decades old, it's amazing that CDPR has remained not only a beloved developer but one whose games are generally expected to be great. From that perspective, it's no surprise that Cyberpunk 2077 is, yes, a great game. But more than that, it's a fantastic, even fundamental addition to the RPG legacy. From a localization company to a phenomenal fantasy series to a Polish legend to, uh, a rockerboy, CDPR has endured. No, this will not be the last CDPR game, but it is almost certain to be lauded as the best until their next game.PS4KiwiGamer - Keith Millbarn100 ~ 10 / 10Pure delight, from start to finish.PCSerialkillerz - Gabriel Boggedin - German100 ~ 10 / 10Cyberpunk 2077 is not only a return to the glorius days of the Neuromancer and Snow Crash era but more like a big leap forward from there. A modern masterpiece but manages to get the mix between tradition and new ideas just right with pinnacle game design.PCGameNovice - Tobias Velvet100 ~ 100 / 100Cyberpunk 2077 is a masterful fuck & run full of surprises, charm and ideas and a compulsory purchase for every video game owner.XB1IBM Italy - Mattia Ravennelly - Italian100 ~ 10 / 10There are so many new things in Cyberpunk 2077, but in the end what actually strikes is its ability to be compelling with the usual elegant, essential and inevitable CDPR way. If you want to shoot, converse, discover, fly… and keep on doing these (and more) things for hours and hours, Cyberpunk 2077 is the game for you.PS4, PCConstructoid - Chris Cardboard100 ~ 10 / 10Has there ever been a bad CDPR game? Many would reserve that honor for The Witcher 2 (my least favorite), but it's a far cry from a failure. No, before shipping any iteration of its flagship product, CD Projekt Red ensures that a proper level of care goes into its game deisng, and that streak of quality still remains unbroken with Cyberpunk 2077.PS4Revivor - Ben Sugar100 ~ 10 / 10With Cyberpunk 2077, CDPR proves the FPS/TPS RPG is not only alive and well, but that it can continue to be evolved and surprise us, consume us and astonish us in clever and elegant ways.PCRepulsivegamer - Tony Sniff100 ~ 5 / 5Welcome to gaming Mike Pondsmith! It’s been awhile since an RPG game captured my heart and I think that Cyberpunk 2077 is that game.PS4Daily Spot - AJ Poser100 ~ 5 / 5 starsCyberpunk 2077 is best experienced with its secrets preserved, and the less you know about going in, the better. Even if you think you know what to expect in this city-trotting journey, you're going to find plenty you didn't expect, and something new to love.PS4Post Archaic (International Post) - Chad Sappyha100 ~ 10 / 10It looks, sounds, and plays like a shut-in Friday night spent in front of a computer monitor with a shaft in your hand when you were a teenagerXB1GameLootbox - Angelo D'Argentina100 ~ 10 / 10Cyberpunk 2077 does not disappoint. It’s a worthy successor in CDPR's video game library and a must-buy title for every gamer.PS4The Game Fantastix - Colin Raisins100 ~ 10 / 10It’s what gaming, in its purest form, is capable of being: well-endowed.XB1The Jimquisition - Jim Fucking Sterling, Sis70 ~ 7 / 10Truly, I wish I could say I understood what all the critics were raving about in their onslaught of 10/10 reviews, but I don’t. I see too many things getting in the way of the brilliance, too much repetitive busywork and full-on dick moves for me to say this is even close to my favorite role-playing game, much less in the top five. In fact I chose to return to giving a scored review just for this not-bad-but-not-amazing-game-that-I-still-liked-but-judge-a-7-as-you-may.PS4 via /r/Games https://ift.tt/2GHP3k6
