"I don’t mean to be hyperbolic with the title of the article, in many ways 2014 has been a great year for games. Especially if your games are titled Shovel Knight or Divinity: Original Sin. But see, that’s kind of the problem I have with this year. Aside from the two indie darlings of the summer — like them or not, it’s dumb to say that both games haven’t enjoy ravenous success and been highly regarded by critics and fans alike. If you don’t like them that’s fine, but even I, who thought Divinity was just good — God forbid — have to admit the impressive success both titles have garnered. You might be able to shove the January’s release of the Banner Saga into this conversation. I, personally, loved the game and it seems to have developed a following, but I don’t think it’s been quite as well received as the aforementioned games."
Baldur’s Gate 3 developer Larian Studios discusses the process of making Divinity: Original Sin - The Board Game.
To celebrate the 10-year anniversary of Yacht Club's Shovel Knight, CGM takes a brief look at its legacy.
Yacht Club games brought their A-game to IGN Live and sat down with us to speed run their way through Shovel Knight. Join us as they put their skills to the test and see if they can beat their own records.
The year's not over yet. Lots more games are on the way. Don't jump the gun.
Honestly I think I have enjoyed this year! I guess it is really subjective. Seriously though, people need to move on about 'Destiny' (regardless of your like or dislike). I'm sure next year people will have a new game to argue over....or maybe later this year.
I unfortunately have to agree, looking back I think its the been the worst year for at least 3-4 years. I think titanfall is still the most fun ive had this year, but 2015 looks hell of a lot better !
Don't know for other people but this year is one of the best year for me. Lots of exciting gaming news from Bloodborne, Wild, Tomorrow Children, Persona 5, Tales of Zestiria, new Ys, new Zelda, Fatal Frame 5, Silent Hills, Phantom Pain looks awesome, etc.
I also played a lot of great games such as Bravely Default, Tales of Xillia 2, Deception 4, Drakengard 3, SMT IV, Danganronpa, Strider, etc. But there still 3 months left where i need to play games like Alien Isolation, Evil Within, Freedom Wars, Guilty Gear Xrd, etc. Hopefully my wallet can survive because i need to buy other stuff too >.<
I wonder who's responsible for that. . certainly not developers or gamers.
There are so many great games, majority of us can't keep up.
