1. The Division
2. Dark Souls 3 - a bit disappointing tbh but.. what else is there ?..
3. Witcher 3 Blood and Whine
4. Battlefield 1
5. Rise of the Tomb Raider

Funny to see so many Tomb Raiders, I thought I was the only one enjoying the game Very Happy
Horrible year overall.. nothing really grabbed me except for The Division but even that didnt last long...

1. Doom, for being fantastic fun from start to finish. Great engine, great level design, great weapons, great enemies, everything was top of the top. My only gripe would that Barrons and Cacodemon were too easy to kill.
2. nothing to emphasise how far above the rest Doom was.
3. Oxenfree for being Oxenfree.
4. Deus Ex, despite shitty writing, truly annoying debate minigame, and occasionally boxy level design, the game still plays well. World is well executed, levels are huge, and Golem City has joined the best of the best in single level department.
5. HoI IV. Big countries are a bit easy, and people complain about historical side of things, but I had a blast dominating the world playing second stringers. Interface is the best they have, production is logical, AI is somewhat challenging, and fronts tone down micromanagement. A fun ww2 strategy.

Missed the list for various reasons, but still enjoyable. Shadow Tactics, My Summer Car, X-Com 2, Quantum Break, Shardlight
Disappointments bin: Civ6, braindead AI, and micromanagement hell thanks to sticking with one hex per unit system. Witcher - Blood and Wine, can't explain why, but halfway through I gave up. Dishonoured 2, story, repetitive gameplay. Tyranny, for being an obvious budget project, plus the writing didn't help at all. Stellaris, not as refined gameplay wise as one expects from Paradox, whole endgame feels badly designed, and I doubt any patching will help.

Besides dumping the above in the bin, I've been mostly just burning cash in iRacing, and wasting time on lichess.

You still have plenty of time to edit your post, but as it is right now POE is invalidated (not a 2016 game) and Dark Souls 3 will score as a number 1 on your list Wink

Hopefully this serves as educational info for the funny guys who have left empty spots in-between on their lists

ok this was really hectic year for me in real life, so I spent very little time on gaming and mostly on indie titles ... i guess i got burned out and quite annoyed with most of the AAA this year Sad

TOP 5
    1. SUPERHOT - Its the most innovative shooter I've played in years
    2. Stories: Path of Destinies - An enjoyable little experience from beginning, to end, and end, and end, and end, and end, and end, and end.....
    3. Pony Island - A fantastically clever deconstruction of video games made by the devil himself
    4. Hyper Light Drifter - one of the best zelda-clones with perfect pixel art and just about right challenge and now in 60fps
    5. Dark Souls 3 - Return to form and great sequel to my game of the eternity


Special mentions: (in no particular order)
    - ICEY - fun action packed little indie game that isn’t afraid to get weird
    - Blacksea Odyssey - small little gem about guy on a boat harpooning monsters
    - Brigador -Deceptively deep tactical gameplaymarried to an appealing aesthetic and a great electronic soundtrack. Reminder of Syndicate, the Strike series, old Mechwarrior titles and even Crusader: No remorse, in the best possible way.
    - Shadow Warrior 2 - after the disappointment i had with Bethesdoom(i guess i am only one) I really loved it
    - Civ 6 - best Civ game in vanilla state ,really interesting changes to the formula
    - XCOM2 - great sequel (too bad about performance)
    - Darkest Dungeon - frustration maximus , wonderfull KS project , hard as fuck
    - Shadow Tactics - Great comeback of my favourite commandos-esque genre
    - Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen - great port of great but flawed japanese openworld RPG , great stuff
    - Salt and Sanctuary - 2D souls done right ... amazing work
    - Grim Dawn - great spiritual successor to Titan Quest
    - Tyranny - its good to be bad Wink
    - The Witness - best game about drawing lines
    - Carmageddon Max Damage - i dont know , but i just love it even with all its problems , return to the good old Carma
    - Slain: Back from Hell - amazing pixel art and after all this patches really nice castlevani-esque game , had to award the comeback from such horrible mess of a launch

Most disappointing game is not No Men's Sky? How? It will go down as the biggest disaster since Daikatana.

I said in the article why it's not the most disappointing. If I had a category "Most Disgusting Launch/Game of the Year", then No Men's Sky would top that. Also, the list is made out of games I played enough to judge them and while I did play a TON of games this year, I missed some. For example, NMS I played for an hour at a friend's house.

"The Division (inb4 herry)"

Very funny toneh, or rather, it would've been, if not every second pun comment ended up using it Cool Face

And yes, NMS should take that title, nothing came even close being a bigger disappointment than that Indie failure. So: "No Man’s Sky which promised a huge universe and delivered", all it delivered was a proof of concept. Sorry but that's just the complete opposite of "doing it right" or "delivering it". Watch the ending if you really want to know why it's rushed and missed a lot of opportunities. Unless you wanted to go "indie" yourself, denying it was the major disappointment this year just isn't true. Not even the high playerbase drop from The Division came close.

It was DOOM vs Titantall 2 and in the end Titanfall 2 comes as a more complete game. Both games have a strong singleplayer campaign and the choice here really comes down to taste, but the multiplayer is an entirely different story. I played the multiplayer of both and while DOOM pulled off a return to form in singleplayer, in multiplayer it's a game without identity being anything else but DOOM. Titanfall 2 lags a bit behind of the predecessor, but it's still really good.

1.The Division
2. Watch Dogs 2
3. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered
4. FIFA 17
5. Rise of the Tomb Raider

Probably the list would be a lot different if I was a fan of games like Deus Ex, DOOM, or perhaps Battlefield, but I am not, so this is it. Smile

1. Battlefield 1
2. Inside
3. The Division
4. Titanfall 2
5. Watch Dogs 2

Basically those are the games I played this year, also played Mafia 3 but I consider it the least game so far.. Still have to play: Deux Ex:MD, Doom, Dishonored 2, Dark Souls 3, XCOM2 (first one too), Darkest Dungeon, Far Cry Primal, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Hitman(Maybe? and prolly some leftovers.. And since it's only PC games I can't name a few console name that pops up, but whatever.

CoD:IW was okay nothing special.
