[ALL] VSN's 2014 Game of the Year

[Twigg4075]

I figure we can get this rolling. As far as I know ALL of the major releases are out and we only have a few short weeks until 2015. I'm hoping you guys can help me compile a list so that I can create a poll. My memory is horrible so games that released in the firsdt quarter of the year are a distant memory. Was Titanfall 2014? I believe so. Ha.

Anyway, so far I think my vote would have to go to Far Cry 4. It does everything FC3 did but just a little bit better and FC3 was my GotY in 2012.

So, what's everyone's favorite?

So many good games that came out in 2014 that it will be hard for me to come up with just one. One thing I will remember more about this year than a lot of other years is that this seemed to be the year when consumers really pushed back against games that were obviously broken being pushed out the door just to meet a deadline. It started last year with the new console versions of Battlefield 3 and NBA 2K14 being almost unplayable for weeks after launch and carried over into this year with Halo: TMCC and NBA 2K15. All Halo had to do in order to sell millions of copies was not be broken. It was the slam dunk of the year.

Here's my list in no particular order-

Destiny, Far Cry 4, South Park: Stick of Truth, Super Smash Bros. and Dragons Age: Inqusition

You would think NBA 2K would've learned their lesson. Two years in a row. Yet EA is labeled as the 'Worst Company in America'. :smh:

right now its Destiny, since its the only that has this kind of grip on me, since my WoW addiction days.

although i have Evil Within, Dragon Age, GTA V and COD - either havent installed or played any of them

1. South Park: The Stick of Truth
2. inFAMOUS: Second Son
3. Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor

(There are still a few games from this fall that I haven't gotten around to yet)

inFamous is my #2 as well. Admittedly, I have not played SoM yet but do have it.

Great year for video games. Not sure which I'd pick to be at the top but my list would have to be made up of Second Son, Stick of Truth, Dragon Age Inquisition, Pokemon Alpha Ruby/Omega Ruby, and Destiny (I guess)

 

[Nucking Futs]

Wow, ya'll are getting me excited for Christmas. Santa Claus is getting me FarCry 4.

:saxual:

 

[Anthony]

Granted I haven't played as many games as most of you, but Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor would be my choice. Absolutely loving it.

 

[Twigg4075]

Shit, is there a way to add a poll to this thread? Although I guess we can always create separate thread for Best Handheld game, Best PS4 Exclusive, etc.

 

[ThomasTomasz]

This just made me realize I haven't played very many games this year.......none of the ones I've played would crack this list.

 

[buckeye]

For me it's hands down Dragonage: Inquisition then Destiny is a distant 2nd.

 

[SethMode]

Dragon Age is the obvious winner, IMO. Size, scope and story it does what Skyrim wanted to but with a better narrative and some of the best dialogue ever. After that it's basically Thunderdome.

Bayonetta 2, Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze, Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros. Wii U, Shadow of Mordor, Far Cry 4...and my own personal indie games of the year, Binding of Isaac: Rebirth and Ziggurat. I could also throw in shit like Valdis Story and Banner Saga but who cares now that pad doesn't post here anymore.

Someone recap what was broken in NBA2K and Halo MCC ?

Also the southpark game was really that good ? I brushed it off but looking around now it seems like alot of people like it.

 

[Handleit_44]

DLC: The Last of Us: Left Behind


Sports: MLB 14 The Show


Racing: DRIVECLUB (Launch issues aside, it's the most fun I've had with a racing game in a while - great gameplay, car handling feels fantastic with each ride, it's gorgeous and hands down the best weather system in any game to date)


PS3: South Park: The Stick of Truth


PS4:
1. Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor
2. inFAMOUS Second Son
3. Far Cry 4









:yep:
