Kaiten_the_Hero Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 This year was pretty good I think but...BEST - Uncharted Lost Legacy - glad to see that Uncharted can still be awesome without Nathan Drake! - Wolfenstein II - heard slightly mixed things online, but for the most part I am SO happy I purchased in the Black Friday sale, was half price. Hoping for a 3rd game. WORST - Mass Effect Andromeda - compared to the original Trilogy, for me, it just lacked everything. I tried forcing my way through a potential 100% run but I just got bored and ended up blasting through the Story pretty quickly. Hoping that Bioware can get Mass Effect back on track! - Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - Was expecting a lot from this game, and left utterly dismayed. Just wasn't what I wanted from a Deus Ex game, especially with how short it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, for me, it was a pretty good year of purchases, but probably I would say: Yeah, it was cancelled after being up and running for just a few hours. Well, not "canceled", but rather "suspended" is the verbiage being used by Gamestop. Hopefully it comes back at some point. Oh! I forgot to mention, discovered buying games through Red Box this year! Snagged Dark Souls 3, Deus Ex (PS4) and Agents of Mayhem for a grand total of $25 over the course of this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamescush147 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) Best Buys: Rise of the Tomb Raider Tekken 7 Murdered: Soul Suspect Hitman: Absolution Hitman inFamous Second Son / First Light Uncharted: The Lost Legacy Watch Dogs 2: Gold Edition Life is Strange: Before the Storm Deluxe Assassin's Creed Origins: Gold Edition Horizon Zero Dawn / The Frozen Wilds L.A. Noire Remastered Edition A mixture of new and old games. So many good new games this year I could not just pick one. Bad Buys: NCIS Game It's just kinda boring.

Don't pay attention to those who shame you for not liking a game they like. It's what makes the world unique. Do you think it'd be a fun world if everyone liked the same thing? Anyway, most like, if you don't like the first area of Bloodborne you probably won't like the rest of the game either. One makes Bloodborne fun for me, is the challenging gameplay and trying to figure out the secrets of that mysterious universe. It compels me to learn more. I'd recommend if you really want to like Bloodborne, read item descriptions it well give you a little information leaving you with wanting more. However it might not. The Souls games are not for everyone. So I don't blame you if you can't get into it. Hey you never know after I spend A LOT OF TIME WITH IT I might like it Edited December 4, 2017 by Shiny Suicune Accidently posted it mutiple times o.o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightstream88 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Probably the best ones Blue Reflection Horizon Zero Dawn Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild Metroid Samus Returns Okami Assassin's Creed Origins Sonic Forces(I do like Sonic Forces even though the controls are a bit clunky or at least it feels like sometimes) Nier Automata Embers of Mirrim Worst I would say Life of Black Tiger but can't include that really because I knew that game was going to be bad before I bought it.

Glacier_Silver Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Best: FF14. I told my brother when Red mage was in the game I would get it. I bought so many games in the last 6 months that are just sitting there, because FF14 is that good. Worst: Mass Effect was way too buggy which really really made me mad. As a Mass Effect fan who hated ME3's ending. I wanted something amazing, not some sub-par BS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soufwar Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Each and every game that i bought and was featured on ps plus and let me tell you there’s a few of those, other than that the rest were all great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Best: Uncharted: The Lost Legacy (GOTY for me; loved it) Worst: Minecraft: Story Mode (I usually like Telltale games, but I thought this one was awful; I even liked Mayo more) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyjabria Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Best purchases in 2017 - Nintendo Switch. Haven't played many games on it yet, but the hardware and OS are quality stuff. Switch already has a great game library that grows constantly. - Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia Limited Edition for Nintendo 3DS. Really good game that was packed with super good extras: hardcover artbook, amazing 30 track soundtrack, metallic pins in a collector box and 2 amiibos. - Journey™ for PS4. Amazing experience. We even ordered Journey Traveler scarves for me and husbando after I had completed the game. Worst purchases in 2017 - I don't think any of my purchases were bad, so it's really hard to think of what would have been the worst. Maybe all the games I bought I haven't had time to start or play yet? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sephiroth4424 Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 The best was Persona 5 The worst was Trine 3,although it came with Trine 2 (excellent) and Trine 1 as a package Due to the current dlc,i'm starting to regret GTA V on ps4 but time will tell about that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jounochi Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 In terms of value my best and worst purchase was Destiny 2. Got three deluxe edition codes for $65 so I gave one to my brother-in-law and sold the other for $80. The game itself lasted all but like, three days or so though... at least I still turned a profit. Best Game: Persona 5 Worst Game: Akiba’s Beat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacks Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Best: Way too many great games to list, but the Switch + Zelda, Mario and Xenoblade Chronicles was a fairly exciting combination across the year as it's the newest addition to my growing collection of games and generations of consoles. Keeping it PS4 related, Horizon Zero Dawn was my first 4K HDR game and what surprised me the most, as I recently went all in on 4k tech, including just adding an Xbox One X recently. The Xbox One X and PS4 Pro, as a result, get a special mention here, as, especially with the X, the tech is great, and the results have been awesome if you have the TV that has all the bells and whistles that they can take advantage of. Worst: ummm... probably with purchases made this year, it would be Ark: Survival Evolved, but I'm still really kind of toasted on the grind that was getting the trophies rather than speaking out against the game itself. I think the only other game that I can think of that I bought this year that was more "good, maybe not great" was Ghost Recon: Wildlands, but I'll admit that it's a great game to play on the side and with the introduction of the Pro and X, it keeps getting better and better visually. Other than that, I really have no complaints about any game I bought and played all year, and pretty much have nothing but good things to say as I work through my backlog.

TrueAssassin86x Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 (edited) Best : Assassins Creed Origins Worst: Persona 5 (Picked this up for $30 during the Black Friday sale played a few hours of it haven't been back since i dont get the hype) Edited December 13, 2017 by TrueAssassin86x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lava_Yuki Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Best was Final Fantasy XII TZA: Beautiful remake, very challenging as usual with trial mode as well as all the great crystal and numerous super bosses. Overall, great gameplay, design, music and characters, like a true FF. Worst was FFXV, horrible game for many reasons and I find it hard to see it as a true FF. I hope people who only played FFXV don't get the false impression that that's what Final Fantasy is. The only thing good was the graphics like most other ps4 games these days.

KaKrackle Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Either Final fantasy 15, or outlast 2. One was utter shit, the other was a massive disappointment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cake Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 My best was easily HZD & Nier: Automata. I even dropped serious monies & got them both at the same time. The worst was Akiba's Beat. I thought it was going to be somewhere close to Akiba's Trip, but I was wrong. The game is God awful IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReverzerO- Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Best: Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII. Worst: World of Final Fantasy - Because I bought a wrong region.The DLC voice catalogue isn't compatible. Heck,, I didn't notice squarenix did a separate file for the voice catalogue for vita lol but I still have plan to buy the right region", Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreakon13 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) Best: Limited edition boxed version of the PC game Hollow Knight from IndieBox. The game was my 2017 GOTY and while I'd much prefer a physical Switch or PS4 version (when it "eventually" comes to console)... this PC box set is very rare. The only way to get it was to be a subscriber to their monthly "indie game boxes" and they were very unclear which month Hollow Knight was going to be. So I missed it. I was so happy that I managed to nab one of the 70 leftover copies they had for sale on Cyber Monday. As you can imagine, they were gone within a minute or two of their store listing opening. Worst: The Evil Within 2. I never sold off a pre-order so quickly after picking it up. Loved the first game (after I warmed up to it), second game made me sick to my stomach with its hamfisted open world-isms and loss of just about anything that made the original unique, and scary for that matter. I re-purchased it used for cheap on eBay a few days ago actually now that the prices have gone down quite a bit... I'll give it another try... but it's on my very short list of pre-order disappointments. Edited January 25, 2018 by Dreakon13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Dub19 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) Best: Persona 5 I've played a little of Persona 4. But Persona 5 is an amazing game and my GOTY. I look forward to going back through the game for the trophies. Worst: The Order 1886 and For Honor. Got The Order 1886 just to see how bad it was. The game has potential but so much more could've been done. For Honor seemed interesting but I could've passed on this game.

kerck11 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) Best game? Idk for me, it's either Resident Evil 7 Collector 's Edition US version or HZD Limited Edition Worst game would be destiny 2, I didn't even played it. Bought it then resell Edited January 25, 2018 by kerck11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikythekiller98 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Best: Persona 5. My GOTY. My favourite RPG of all time. Just wonderful. I can't believe I got it for just 40€ (around 50$). Worst: I didn't buy any bad game in 2017, but, even though I'm sad saying it, I'd say Overwatch. I never really got involved (just to specify that I don't hate, OW, it's an amazing game, I just never got so involved in it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I need more BIOSHOCK Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Best - crash bandicoot remasters Plants vs zombies Garden Warfare Worst - oh sir the insult simulator DONT DO IT!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigrake1 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Best: Witcher 3 & Child of Light Worst: Destiny 2 (by far...) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RK9 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Best: Cuphead Worst: Call of Duty WWII Cuphead was absolutely amazing! I've found it hard to get into anything since, really. The only reason I picked Call of Duty WWII as my worst purchase; is because I bought the Deluxe edition and didn't really enjoy the multiplayer. More of a regret than a dislike.

starcrunch061 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 On 12/4/2017 at 10:02 AM, starcrunch061 said: Anyway, for me, it was a pretty good year of purchases, but probably I would say: BEST: Toss up between Dragon Quest Heroes and Axiom Verge. I got both on the cheap, and both offered a ton of fun. In fact, I bought a second copy of Axiom Verge just to support Tom Happ, and I bought Dragon Quest Heroes II just yesterday. WORST: Probably Toro or Taco Master. Even if both were cheap (Toro was already highly discounted, and Taco Master is just cheap all the time), both games were awful. There's no excuse for a game to be that bad. It's funny looking back at this, because Dragon Quest Heroes 2 is probably my favorite game from last year. Did Persona 5 come out in 2017? If so, I can't believe I forgot to list it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
