I've got the "finally buying new console hardware at the end of the year" blues. I thought I was going to struggle to get a list of ten this year but thanks to some last minute brute forcing of some games I've finally got it figured out for the most part.
Although it is A LOT like it's predecessor, it doesn't change the fact that this is the game I had the most fun with in 2014. You could make the case that this is the best survival horror experience this year. I've never been so terrified of eagle attacks.
Everything about the sci-fi back drop of the campaign is just plain cool. The part about it that's less cool is me being shot in the back in a multiplayer match which is frequent.
The most laughs I've got out of any game this year. They absolutely nail the art style of the show and should be commended for doing so.
Admittedly I'm not a huge fan of the Souls games. While it may not have quite the mystique and intrigue of the previous games' stories I felt the game play was the most satisfying it's ever been, at least for a full spellcaster class.
I don't like MEMEs but I really like this game. Hands down one of the most unique games I've played in 2014.
The story in this game is duuuuuumb. The gameplay and production values however are undeniable. Turns out it's still a lot of fun to play Diablo.
I don't even...what...?
The single player elements felt completely phoned in but this was some of the most fun I've had with multiplayer this year.
The game play is some of the best it's ever been for the series. It's a shame that the narrative is the weakest part.
I have to accept that Capcom is never going to make Power Stone 3 so I'll take what I can get when it comes to goofy arena battle games.
