My Favourite Games of 2014

It's April and finally I'm getting to my best of 2014 list. This mainly took so long as I started Dragon Age after Christmas and it was such a huge game. The year was generally slow with a lot of games being pushed back and a lot of games coming out and not living up to their potential such as Watchdogs. One reason behind this is nearly every AAA game released came out for both generations of consoles. This means at worst they were just HD ports or designed for the new generation but with an old engine. Either way comprises were made to the games to make sure they could still function on older hardware resulting in some disappointing games. Hopefully, developers in 2015 will embrace the new generation individually now that the install base has grown. Ubisoft had a mixed year with its smaller titles being impressive but many of its bigger games such as Assassin's Creed and The Crew being disappointing. There were still some impressive games over 2014 and here is my top 5:

5. Infamous: Second Son

4. Child of Light

3. Valient Hearts: The Great War

2. Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor

1. Dragon Age: Inquisition

My most anticipated games for 2015 are:

4.The Witness

3.No Man's Sky

2.Until Dawn

1.The Whitcher 3: Wild Hunt
