Best of 2014
Shit year for games. But still, there were some gems I suppose.
List items
-
If you haven't played it, you just don't understand.
-
Great tension in this game, albeit a bit long in the tooth. I love Aliens, and I love horror games. Game ran great and looked even better on PC, and that depth of field trick for the motion tracker is the best feature of the year.
-
I was in some state of zen/sleep-deprivation while playing this game, and as such the game's tricky puzzles and haunting dance tunes entranced me. Fantastical.
-
This game gets a bad rep, but it was fantastic. Challenging boss encounters, a fluid 60fps on PC, and controls like a dream. Story is a bit dumb, and the stealth sections were stupid (Especially that one leaves part).
-
Not a huge Mega Man fan, but this still won me over by my second playthrough. Great pixel art and music.
-
Late addition, since it came out on PC right at the end of the year. Fantastic gameplay, though very short.
-
It's Street Fighter.
-
Telltale formula aside, I just like the concept of the game. Gritty fairy-tales living in real life.
-
This is for the PC release, Half-Minute Hero: The Second Coming. It's pretty great, but I haven't had the opportunity to put a lot of time into it yet.
-
Haven't put nearly enough time into it, it seems like something you need to sit down with for 100 hours or so with some graph paper all old-schoolish.
-
Didn't play, but looks up my alley with the Rainbow Six style of mission planning.
