NBA 2K17
NBA 2K17 is the best this franchise has seen. The players
and graphics are so unbelievably life-like. Matches in NBA 2K17 don't merely
feel like authentic basketball, they look and sound like it too with
astonishingly realistic player likenesses and insightful, just-like-on-ESPN
broadcast presentation. Trailer: Click Here
Overwatch
There is much to love and praise about Overwatch that you
could say about any well-crafted shooter. You get well-executed gunplay, unique
character classes, exciting maps, and a variety of game modes. The brilliance
of Blizzard's games has long been centering its work around fans, and the
immediate surge of support from the Overwatch community is a testament to how
deeply the game resonates with players of all kinds.
Uncharted 4: A Thief's End
You can't finish 2016 without acknowledging Nate's final
send off - a last goodbye to one of PlayStation's most prominent and beloved
characters. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End gave us our most human take on the
adventurer yet, filling out his past to explain who he was, while showing us a
present that revealed who he had become.
Dishonored 2
Play for a few minutes and you won't notice much difference
from the original game, aside from graphics that elevate their stylized figures
into nigh-photorealistic grotesques. Play for an hour or two and you'll see how
all of the little improvements to the familiar model add up: lob a bottle of
cider at a guard's head then leap down and slam her partner's face into the
pavement for a brutal, but 100-percent non-lethal, group takedown.
1. Titanfall 2
Who knew? Our actual Game of the Year is a big, dumb shooter
about a space-dude and his space-dude robot. Well, actually, that's a gross
reduction of Titanfall 2. For starters there's nothing dumb about the core
shooting here, which is slick and quick as anything you've played this
generation.
