    2016: Top 10 Best Video Games

    10. “Overwatch”

    This pick is not a personal one, but more of a sense of acknowledgement to a great game. “Overwatch” delivered a fine mix of first-person shooting and the heroes and lore of MOBAs such as “League of Legends” or “DOTA.” “Overwatch” does lack a broader appeal due to the lack of a campaign, but has gained mass popularity. The winner of Game of the Year and Best eSports Game at the 2016 Game Awards, “Overwatch” is well deserving of a spot in any Top 10 list.

    9. “Quantum Break”

    Many would question this pick. “Quantum Break” takes the player on a time traveling adventure as Jack Joyce. The game fuses gunplay and Jack’s time manipulation powers in a smooth and easy to learn way. “Quantum Break” goes an extra step past typical computer rendered cut scenes, and creates a live action television that runs along parallel to the main game. The television show mixes wonderfully with the main game to form a truly unique experience.

    8. “Firewatch”


    Many have called “Firewatch” a walking simulator, and they are not entirely wrong. “Firewatch” does lack in the gameplay department, but delivers a captivating narrative as the player hikes through the wilderness in Wyoming. Art style, story and voice acting all come together to help this indie game to compete with these games from bigger studios.

    7. “Battlefield 1”


    This is another pick that might have people scratching their heads, especially in the number seven slot. “Battlefield 1” was a unique game this year. It broke the recent trends of big budget shooters by stepping back in time to WWI and telling a series of separate stories from multiple fronts of the war. “Battlefield 1” is a game that sticks with the player well after they’re done with it. The overall experience earns itself a spot on this list.

    6. “XCOM 2”

    “XCOM 2” is simply a good game. Delivering not only a good story and fun gameplay, “XCOM 2” does not pull punches in terms of difficulty. “XCOM 2” built wonderfully off of the original and has great support from the modder that will keep players with this game for a long time.

    5. “Civilization 6”

    “Civ 6” is the second game by Firaxis on this list. Winner of Best Strategy Game at the game awards, “Civ 6” has something to offer both new players and experienced veterans. “Civ 6” has made changes to win conditions that force players to alter past winning strategy. These gameplay changes along with the adoption of a new art style has helped this game extend its appeal compared to past installments.

    4. “Ratchet and Clank”

    “Ratchet and Clank” came out in conjunction with an animated film this April. A reimagining of a 2002 classic, “Ratchet and Clank” brings back all the great characters for old fans and a new younger generation. The game is a playable Pixar movie. It looks absolutely gorgeous and strong gameplay backs it up. The entire game is a blast from the past that easily ends up high on this list.

    3. “DOOM”

    “DOOM” brings back old slide and glide style of shooting in this brutal game. The original “DOOM” helped establish the first-person shooter genre, and this iteration is a wonderful fruition of those labors. Bloody, brutal and fast paced, “DOOM” is not for those with a weak constitution.

    2. “Gears of War 4”


    “Gears of War 4” is the first Gears game by the Coalition. The Coalition built on Epic Games framework of gameplay with a more emotionally focused narrative. “Gears 4” is not groundbreaking in terms of originality. “Gears 4” just delivered an amazing experience in terms of both gameplay and narrative.

    1. “Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End”


    “Uncharted 4” delivered the perfect ending to the story of Nathan Drake. “Uncharted 4” achieves high levels of success in almost every level. Captivating narrative, building on an already strong cast with the addition of Troy Baker and even an enjoyable multiplayer. “Uncharted 4” easily stands on top of this list and should be a strong contender for anyone’s Game of the Year.

    Honorable Mentions: “Final Fantasy 15,” “Batman: The Telltale Series,” “The Division,” “Dishonored 2” and “Watch Dogs 2.”
