BEST GAMES OF 2017 – RICHARD’S TOP 10
If my massive backlog of videogames is any measure, 2017 was alright. A bit too alright. With Nintendo back on form, there was barely a reprieve from awesome releases. In a way, this was a tragedy: some of the most well-regarded releases of the year, sat on my grubby list of shame. Here’s hoping for a shit 2018, then. In the meantime, here’s 10 games I did play, all of which were good enough to justify typing out some words of enthusiasm. Yay, enthusiasm!
The Evil Within 2 (Xbox One)
Art doesn’t have to be beautiful – it just has to touch you inside.
Project Cars 2 (Xbox One)
Billed as an authentic driving simulation, Project Cars 2 delivers detail and content by the truckload. Trouble is, I really need more help to unload it all.
Life is Strange: Before the Storm – Episode 1 (Xbox One)
Meteorologically speaking, these are quieter times in Arcadia Bay. And yet, the social drama in this prequel is no less tempestuous.
Masquerada: Songs and Shadows (Xbox One)
Role-playing games are supposed to offer a role to play.
Tiny Trax (PSVR)
These little toys from Futurlab want to leave a big impression.
