Overview
Description

Cyberpunk 2077 is an open-world action-adventure game set in Night City, a sprawling metropolis driven by power, glamour, and body modification. Players assume the role of V, a mercenary outlaw in pursuit of a unique implant that holds the key to immortality, navigating a world where mega-corporations operate above the law. In a gritty future defined by cyberware, violent crime, and extreme poverty, your choices directly influence both the narrative and the world around you. Experience deep role-playing customization of skills, cybernetics, and playstyle as you carve your own legend in the streets of Night City.

Parasite Eve blends survival horror with role‑playing elements, following NYPD officer Aya Brea as she confronts a deadly genetic mutation in Manhattan. Set over six days, the game mixes real‑time combat, puzzle solving, and character development to deliver a cinematic, sci‑fi horror experience. The story, inspired by Hideaki Sena’s novel, pits Aya against the monstrous Eve and her minions, culminating in a showdown that decides humanity’s fate. Originally released in 1998 for PlayStation, it remains a classic of the genre with its unique blend of action, adventure, and horror.

Been playing Cyberpunk 2077 with friends. Strong main story and Phantom Liberty. One gripe: demanding hardware for ray tracing. Would recommend.
