Your top 5 games of the year?

eelnico09

Hi everyone, right now i can't find a game that would keep me playing for a straight hour, idk if it's the game or what, but for example with DarkSouls 2 i'd wake up or come from somewere and jump onto the game, same thing with watch dogs. But appart from those 2 games i can't seem to find a good game that's not online to keep me interested.

 

So i ask everyone who wants, to make a top 5 or top 10 of the games you have loved this year. Please don't add mmorpg's and mobas such as LoL, just offline single player games.

Oh... hm... I guess 2014 was kinda sucky for PC gaming. Still, you can try Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, Far Cry 4 and if you're into spacey-tradey-games - Elite: Dangerous.

Any unknown button should be pressed even number of times.

One thing i learned by having an extremely crappy laptop (going to get a better pc soon) is that "When you don't have enough newer games, go with older ones" :D

 

If there's no game from this year, play something older :D Or if you have a console laying around, play it :)

 

Or you can try searching for some obscure games that aren't all well known

FTL or Hotline Miami are your friends.

2. Skyrim, always Skyrim

3. Borderlands TPS

4. Firefall

5. Burnout Paradise.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.1 Corinthians 13:4

Yeah, if you mean like WoD counts, it does.

 

 

Also, if we could keep it 2014 only it'd be cool, i mean i make it top 5, not 10, because there were not many awesome games this year, but still.

Don't want to risk it... This laptop overheated while playing GTA SA... I know i forgot to turn on the cooling pad, but still....

 

Also, it looks like FTL isn't my cup of tea, don't know about hotline miami, will check it :)

Was not interested in any PC game released this year... and my most anticipated title was not released in my country... blasted EA!!!

So I got Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros. Wii U, Bayonetta 2, Strider and Kirby: Triple Deluxe.

Only one new game I have played this year and that is Binding Of Isaac Rebirth. Only been out a month and already logged 60 hours which is insane for me as I am working most days.

My rig: i5 2500k, MSI Z77A G45, Gainward GTX 980 Phantom, 8GB Corsair Vengeance, OCZ ZT series 750W PSU, 1TB HDD, 800D, fully water cooled. I am currently working on modding my HAF 912+ to fit a custom loop, here is the build log: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/165963-project-viridis-water-cooled-haf-912/

In no particular order - 

 

Dragon Age Inquisition

Far Cry 4

Ryse Son Of Rome

Watchdogs

Wolfenstein: The New Order

Castlevania: Lords Of Shadow 2

Tesla Effect: A Tex Murphy Adventure

 

 

There are 2 titles in particular i was looking forward to, but they both got shut down unfortunately. World Of Darkness & Warhammer 40k: Dark Millenium.

Shot through the heart and you're to blame, 30fps and i'll pirate your game - Bon Jovi

Take me down to the console city where the games are blurry and the frames are thirty - Guns N' Roses

Dark Souls 2 and Binding of Isaac: Rebirth

Dark Souls 2 isn't exceptionally good though. Those are the only games worth mentioning to me, which tells about the quality of games this year

Shadow of mordor. i really like it good combat. I like it better than the arkham games maybe because of the animations and you kill rather than knocking out the enemies.

Dark Souls 2 and Divinity Original Sin are the only two that come to mind.

 

Wolf Among Us was also pretty fun.

 

Wargame: Red Dragon is very niche, but rather enjoyable in multiplayer

Shadow of mordor and Planetary annihilation are the only new games of this year i've played... i've only bought 1 of them so far... waiting for discount on steam for the other one :P

 

annihilation is awesome, but has its flaws, and it really needs dual monitor support :( i really miss it
