Cyberpunk 2077 is easily one of the best games I've played in a long time. Predominantly a first-person shooter, set in a dystopian future with plethora of technology to aid you in hacking into the various computerised systems of your enemies. Plot has some great twists and turns, with a certain very famous person lending their talents. Controls are generally pretty good, though the sprint button (L3 on the PS4) feels choppy and is unreliable. For that reason alone it would be nice to be able to re-map the buttons, but no such luck yet. The frame rate isn't always great, unless you're running a HDTV with a ps4 pro. Luckily frame drop doesn't spoil things too much. Graphically the attention to detail, draw distance and moody atmosphere are all present and impressive, although the streets of Night City sometimes feel sparsely populated which is a pity. Influences on the game include GTA, Portal and the Matrix, though most obvious is Blade Runner as a genre pulling Night City forward from an even more grimdark future. Cyber feels quite big as an open-world, without being overwhelming. Dialogue is intelligent, complex and fits well with the imagined changes in common use of terms, "Eddies" meaning ready cash, for example. Options to choose a variety of responses have yet to affect plot, but I'm still on my first playthrough so we will see. The diverse culture and history of Night City are all there in exemplary condition. There are lots of sidequests of different types, plenty of optional missions, and a variety of play styles available to suit your approach. The learning curve is pitched just right, and there's lots of skills, a nice pace of character growth, good advancement mechanics and plenty of crafting options for abilities, utilities and gear. The variety of weapons opens up to include all kinds of fun ways to blast your enemies, and includes a wide range of guns, grenades, blades and more. Close quarter combat is also well catered for, though can sometimes feel chaotic and choppy without the option to play in third-person view. The option to fashion your character with body-mods and a huge choice of clothing adds to the sense of personal investment. At around £20-25, great value overall.Read full review

Dreadful bore, drags, particularly at the beginning and it was impossible to get into it. Very difficult to follow the actual storyline. Sold merely a week after purchasing (at a loss).

Bern playing a few hours and just got into the main plot line now and it's very compelling! Great writing and acting and a very well realised world that it's all set in but yeah it's buggy and it crashes still and I'm on ps5

The game is a little buggy in places as expected, although I down loaded the PS5 version from the link on installation and it’s runs fine and is great fun to play.

I heard a lot of bad things about this game when it first launched but just over a year on, the release of the PS5 patch was supposed to fix all that. There are still a number of bugs like characters glitching through floors or dialog options just not appearing but these are few and far between. The world they e created along with the gameplay is great and worth a shot if you can get it for a cheaper price.
