Gravity Gun Medal: Wolfenstein: The New Order (Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4, PC) The graphics are also outstanding, with some facial animation that defies anything on the market. It retains the twitch-shooter DNA that have made the game so popular, but adds in more verticality and far more dynamic matches. Like Titanfall, the game focuses on new ways to move around a map, introducing double-jumps and dodge boosts and other movement options more closely associated with arena shooters-though this is not, by any stretch, an arena shooter. Still, like The Master Chief Collection, this is a re-release rather than a 2014 original, even if it is a great addition to the new-gen catalog.ĪWP Medal: Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare (Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4, PC)įinally the Call of Duty formula has been changed, altered more drastically than any year since Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.Īdvanced Warfare has a fun, if overly predictable, single-player campaign, a decent co-op mode, and terrific competitive multiplayer. Then again, this isn't an accuracy-based shooter, it's a spray-and-pray and hack-and-slash game that's far faster and weirder than any of its modern brethren. It plays great even with a gamepad, though you'll never quite match a mouse-and-keyboard for accuracy. The remake of the classic first-person shooter originally came to PC, but was released on new-gen systems in 2014. And limbs just go flying when you start swinging that blade. Besides, you have an awesome katana and tons of demonic super-powers at your disposal. The black humor, fast-paced gunfighting, and general irreverence of Shadow Warrior make it a ton of fun to play. Runner-Up: Shadow Warrior (PS4, Xbox One, PC) There's potential here, but it's not been fully realized yet. There's a lot to love, especially for people who enjoy grinding and MMO fans, but a lack of matchmaking options and the limited story hold back an otherwise great game.įor others, like myself, too much grinding and too thin a story-not to mention limited social options-makes Destiny look like a work in progress rather than a finished game.
While the game is gorgeous and the gameplay is solid, the game's initial campaign felt gutted compared to what we'd seen advertised. Runner-Up: Destiny (Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4)ĭestiny also feels like a first step.
