My Top 5 Games Of 2016

Before I begin with my Top 5, I’d like to point out that this list is based on my opinion and my opinion alone. I’m just giving my thoughts on games that I enjoyed this year.  

5. Killer Instinct Season 3

Although this game was already released on Xbox One back in 2013, the game is new to Windows 10 PC users with the release of Season 3. Myself and many were hoping for a PC port when the game for first announced and it delivers 10 fold. The Killer Instinct series is rejuvenated thanks to Microsoft by redesigned old characters while giving us new ones to enjoy. Even if you’re just a casual fighting game fan like myself. With its combo assist mode it’s very casual friendly. Killer Instinct is definitely worth checking out, also were else are you gonna find a fighting game were you can play as a ninja, a mummy, a werewolf, a cyborg or even a demon ?

4. AM2R

As someone whos favorite Metroid game is Zero Mission and never got a chance to experience Metroid 2, AM2R is perfect in every way. From the sounds to the art to everything about this game, it made me feel how I did when I played Zero Mission for the first time. The game gives life to the Metroid series when it seems like Nintendo can’t. Between the discovery and boss battles you’ll see time fly right before your eyes, I know I did. If you haven’t played this game yet, I highly recommend that you do. 

3. Uncharted 4

Uncharted 4 is simply breath taking, from its scenery to its motion capture. Nathan Drakes send off it full of excitement and adventure behind every corner. If you own a PS4 and you haven’t play this game yet, you’re seriously missing out.   

2. DOOM

I’ll make it simple, DOOM is so f_cking METAL and it knows it. What was once old is new again, between its amazing combat awesome gore factor and killer soundtrack. You’ll find yourself grooving to the soundtrack as you’re slaying some demons. DOOM is 100% a must play.  

1. Overwatch

I was excited was Overwatch was first announced back and Blizzcon 2014 but I never expected I’d love it as much as I do. From it’s diverse character roaster to the mystery be hide each character to it’s cool game modes. Each character is unique in there own special way and it’s hard not love love all of them. I know this game doesn’t have a story more, but there’s definitely a lot of lore to go around. As you should know by now, if you haven’t played this game you should give it a try, specially since Blizzard has free weekends for the game every now and then. 

So those were my Top 5 Games of 2016. Here’s to an amazing 2017. It’s looking to be another amazing year for games, with Horizon Zero Dawn, Crash Bandicoot N’ Sane Trilogy, Injustice 2, Zelda: Breath of The Wild, Red Dead Redemption and the Nintendo Switch just to name a few things I’m excited for in new year. I’d like to give a “few” honorable mentions to some games that didn’t make the list but I still enjoyed.
