DICE have done it again. As one of the leading developers in the first-person shooter genre, they have deployed you to the frontlines of another war that's truly epic in its scale and detail, this time with World War 1. The setting will provide something old and familiar for those feeling alienated by modern or futuristic shooters, yet it also simultaneously delivers something that doesn't feel stale.
Dead Rising 4 is all about one thing, and that's having fun. No matter where you go in Willamette, you're sure to find endless waves of zombies that you can batter down in your insane Warmonger or annihilate using your new Exo-Suit. There's so many ways to take down the undead horde in Dead Rising 4, and when you're done with the main storyline and levelling up Frank, head into multiplayer for even more crazy adventures in Willamette.
Halo Wars 2 is an absolute blast. Whether you're engrossed into its fantastic storyline in the battle against Atriox, playing it like a classic RTS in the Deathmatch, Domination, or Stronghold game-types, or building your deck with the new and innovative Blitz mode, there's something for everyone. Halo Wars 2 is for both newbies to RTS and Halo games, as well as seasonal veterans. As for those who love both Halo and RTS, well they have an absolute treat awaiting them, as do new players alike.
While Titanfall 2 is far superior than the original game and has done so much to improve, one can only find the campaign to be lacking as the overall game is carried by a well-crafted multiplayer experience. It's undeniable that this is the real reason why players will be coming back to play it over and over, and with regular free content updates including new maps, weapons, and features, who knows what innovative experiences Respawn has planned for the future of Titanfall 2.
ReCore's immersive gameplay puts you in the face of danger, adventure, and a heart-warming narrative that bonds you with a charismatic human and her Corebots. I'd recommend this game to anybody looking for a new action-adventure game, yet also craving the gameplay and nostalgia of pre-PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 second generation games.
Sniper Elite 4 truly is a fun, beautiful and thought-provoking game that includes an excellent campaign mode which featured plenty of gore and action.
If somebody came up to me on the street and told me about this plot to a game, I'd be a bit skeptical, as I'm sure many of you were when you first heard about For Honor. Up until the point of actually playing the game, nothing seemed too special about the new release from Ubisoft. For Honor seemed to strike a perfect balance of story, gameplay, longevity, and sheer fun to create a solid game that I'm sure people will be playing for a while. Fantastic: For Honor is the fighting game for people who don't like fighting games.
The collective Ubisoft studios have done a fantastic job in certain aspects of the game, but fallen well short in others. Ghost Recon Wildlands could have been much more than what it is. With some more thought going into the mission and voice scripts, this really could have been the Game of the Year in my opinion. It combines all the aspects of fan-favourite game: an open world, lots of customisation options, and the freedom to complete your task in whatever order you would like to.
I doubt anyone asked for the Hot Wheels Expansion, but at the same time, this is the expansion we always wanted to have in Forza. Whilst the execution should've been handled differently, I can't deny how much fun I've had with the Hot Wheels Expansion when playing online with friends.
I enjoyed every second of DiRT 4, and being the motorsport fan which I am, I truly appreciated seeing all those famous liveries and designs and being able to drive some of the most iconic vehicles of all time.
The Crew: Calling All Units is good for anybody looking to spice up the standard or Wild Run edition of The Crew as they await its sequel coming in 2018, but it's not a necessity.
I've really enjoyed my time with Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, and will most likely continue to – Chloe Frazer and Nadine Ross' chemistry is fantastic, allowing for a brilliantly crafted story, excellent combat and an enthralling experience.
Fast cars, insane G-Forces, and you behind the wheel. F1 2017 invites you to live the life of a Formula One driver, in the best iteration of the Codemasters F1 game series - with you right at the center of it all.
Overall, the Hoonigan Car Pack is an extremely solid pack, scoring itself a 9/10. Many of the cars you see here will be used in online play, and are generally useful to the career mode in Forza Horizon 3.
Destiny 2 is a huge step up from the original game.
Overall an amazing game, Project Cars 2 incorporates almost everything a sim racer could ask for, aside from the lack of car customization which is its Achilles heel.
Forza Motorsport 7 is a brilliant update on Forza Motorsport 6's racing experience, providing some of the most fun on-track action ever in a videogame.
An amazing game overall that incorporates everything that the fans have been asking for - Improved graphics, a new gear system, an updated UI and HUD, completely redesigned fighting and stealth mechanics, and so much more.
Need for Speed Payback is the perfect game to get into if you've been missing the old Need for Speed.
I had a great time playing ONRUSH and was the first arcade game that I had played in a very long time. It was a great refresher to come back to after years of playing Forza and Sim racers.
