Let's be honest. I'll probably never get around to making a better post so I'm just going to put something really sloppy together to discuss my favorite games of 2016.
I can't really pick just one so I'm creating different categories.
Best indie title.
Oxenfree.
I absolutely loved this game. You can beat it in well under 10 hours and it has a lot of replayability if you want to get that perfect ending. The art style is one of my favorites and the story telling was really good. Excellent game to play with a "non-gamer" because you have a lot of dialogue options to choose from and choices you can make.
Best FPS with demons.
Doom. (2016)
Doom was an insanely wild ride from start to finish. Finish is a loose term right? I have to confess I haven't finished this game yet. I'm sorry!
The graphics are mind bending and the music fits this game so perfectly you can hardly believe it!
If you were tempted by this game but didn't pick it up I can promise it is worth it.
Best team based FPS.
Overwatch.
I don't think Blizzard has ever done a poor job of anything. And if they have, don't remind me.
Overwatch is just pure fun. The colors and graphics are beautiful and how smooth this game runs is ridiculous. This game is so well optimized it can run on pretty low end hardware without any hiccups. Now I said this game is pure fun but it can also get incredibly infuriating when you are getting destroyed by a better team. The most fun you can have with this game is by playing with a group friends all using mics. The fun only ends when someone (usually me) decides they are too tired and jump off, encouraging everyone else to be responsible and quit as well.
Best mech FPS.
Titanfall 2.
Another incredibly fun game. I was resisting picking this up because I'd already bought a few games I barely played as it was. There was a pretty good discount and I resisted, then a deeper discount game around and I took that as a sign I need to play this game...
Well, I did. And this game is amazing! Seriously, amazing. How well they were able to get this game to run is mind boggling. It doesn't stutter, ever. The variety of Titans and weapons you can use is staggering. In or out of the Titan is a blast. This game is just so good!
Most neglected by me of 2016.
Pokemon Sun/Moon. Deus Ex Mankind Divided.
Look, I bought the game because it looked pretty rad and they changed a few things about it.
I haven't played a pokemon game since blue.
I think I've clocked 5 hours maybe...
I'm sorry Pokemon.
Followed by a close runner-up of Deus Ex Mankind Divided. I think I got close to 10 hours in this game. It is really, really good but I just got to involved with other games.
I'm sorry Deus Ex.
Let me know what your pics are!
