The game hasn’t taken any wild new directions but rather focused on improving the existing formula. The entire game feels like a warm duvet on a cold day.
FIFA 19 sees the franchise finally add the long-awaited UEFA Champions League to its considerable list of licensed content along with a steady stream of changes and improvements.
There is a reason that it was one of the top games of it's genre back in 2008 and this translates beautifully to the new console platforms.
It’s gameplay is fluid and fun and the overall world rich and detailed. If you have ever considered a Monster Hunter game before and never pulled the trigger, this is your opportunity.

While you always know what you are getting with a FIFA game, this year delivers a highly polished and well refined offering with just the right amount of new.

Halo Wars 2 feels like a great addition to the Halo series, and successfully makes all the battles feel believable and relatable at the same time. Sometimes the unit restrictions might feel a bit on the low side, but the game’s core mechanics, work around this.
In the end, Nioh is a magnificent experience that Dark Souls player will love. Is it better than our Game of the Year for 2016? No, but it is a good substitute that does a great job in bringing a new world to life in the grittiest way possible.
There has not been a Resident Evil that we have managed to connect with in a long time. Resident Evil 7 Biohazard has changed all that. All the puzzles, all the scares, and the fantastic feeling you get while playing the game. It is a horrific, in all the right ways.
Dead Rising 4 has everything we love from the series, but bigger and better than ever.
Infinite Warfare lacks the polish and action we love from the COD series. The space theme is great, but the campaign is mundane, and the multiplayer is buggy. The only star this year is the zombie mode.
Titanfall 2 does not suffer from an identity crisis. It knows what it is, and what it wants, and delivers that all in an action-packed, fast paced package that comes with a stellar campaign, and an enjoyable multiplayer.
Sid Meier's Civilization 6 is the best Civilization game ever built, and its cute art style and deep game mechanics makes it so much more rewarding.
Battlefield 1 goes beyond what we thought was possible to deliver one of the best World War I imaginings in gaming
Mafia III has some great characters and a lovely world to explore, but it at its core it is an uninspiring sandbox game, of which I expected more.
One of the best video game collections of the current console generation.
Gears of War 4 is a fresh new take on the Gears series. New characters, enemies, and a refreshing new story, will be a welcome new direction for the series for years to come.

Destiny: Rise of Iron has one of the best raids to date, but the journey to get there is mundane
