fukk outa here with this tired shyt
Don't know what kinda games y'all like but this gen has already given me 3 games I can put on my all time favorites list.
Forza Horizon:
The theme is freedom and no other open world racer has ever let you be truly free the way horizon does. You see an open field, drive accross it. The handling/physics are "sim" enough to pose a challenge, but "arcade" enough to still be fun. Can't think of any open world racer with as many cars, or just content in general.
Played a bit of need for speed recently and there's no going back. I just can't wrap my head around all the invisible walls and arbitrary barriers these games have. You can only go off the road in specific "shortcut" areas.
Horizon has ruined all other open world racers for me.
Witcher 3:
Goat WRPG ever hands down. The story, gameplay, world design, side quests, characters, equipment all head and shoulders above the competition.
The way the world is built alone puts this game in its own league. In all the other wrpgs the world is basically empty and flat with simple geometry. I still marvel at how dense and complex the world is in the wither. The white orchard map in the witcher probably has more "stuff" than the entire skyrim map.
On top of that the witcher actually delivers on the promises games like mass effect and fable made. Almost EVERY mission and decision you make have further implications on the story, and the world at large. Its pretty amazing how interwoven everything is. You might decide to save a random peasant on the side of the road, then way later when you don't even remember you helped him, you cross paths again, he remembers you and give you a discount on a rare item. It sounds simple, but it makes the game world infinitely more compelling.
Sunset Overdrive:
A smash up of genres that resulted in something fresh and new, while simultaneously giving me the at Dreamcast feeling. Fun colorful, goofy, and gameplay centered as opposed to trying to be "cinematic" like most other games these days.
The traversal is some of the best ever in an open world "superhero game". No other game could match the addictivness of collecting those agility orbs in Crackdown. Sunset not only met, but far surpassed that. I collected 100% of everything and was literally upset that i couldn't keep playing. That's never happened in any game for me.
So in conclusion fukk that noise y'all talmbout, current gen been good to a nikka
