What it is is a 150+ hour sigh of relief for those of us, myself included, who worried for the firm's creative future after that terrifying wobbly period after ME3 and DA2.

Dragon Age: Inquisition doesn’t start especially well. After racing through the prologue and saving the world (for the first time), you’re let loose in a gigantic open area called ‘The Hinterlands’. It’s spectacular, and you’ll be itching to EXPLORE everything that you come across, as you clamber across the many impressive landscapes, all the while slaughtering bandits and spamming that new jump button to your heart’s content. It’s great! This is what fantasy RPGs are all about! We’re all having so much fun! Except, I sort of wasn’t.

Every time the GOTY chat cropped up in the office, my mind immediately jumped to Stick of Truth. I’m fully aware it wasn’t the greatest turn-based RPG, but for somebody who has seen every episode of what I think is the greatest thing on TV, it was exactly what I wanted from beginning to end.



I can’t tell you the amount of times I laughed out loud while playing, and to tell you any of the moments that caused me to lose it would be a spoiler. I even laughed at some of the descriptions in the trophy list, mainly because many of them involved farting or cacking your pants and...

In a year that seemed chock full of misfiring new IPs, Titanfall was the one original franchise that truly stood out as being something special. Familiar yet unique, Respawn’s superb map design, exciting traversal mechanics and modern approach to mech-shooting made Titanfall far more than the Call of Duty-clone some may have expected it to be, and a terrific first attempt at injecting adrenaline back into the genre.



And that was the key to its success. While there were other great shooters, Titanfall was the first in a long time that really made shooting feel cool. Comboing a...

Blizzard brought the game to consoles in 2013 and I still didn't care, but when it arrived on PS4, in lovely 1080p and 60fps I was tempted to take a look. Initially it did nothing for me. Combat felt simplistic, my character was horribly...
