Voxie's Top 10 Games of the Year

By Voxie

Right before we start I just need to point out a few things.

Number 1, I'm looking at any game that I played for the first time during 2014 no matter how old the game actually is.

Number 2 and this is important, These are my opinions, You will obviously have your own and that's what makes life great.

Anyway on with the list.


10. FEZ

Like a few other games on this list, I got this through PS Plus and i was enthralled by this game.
A beautiful art styling and fantastic platforming and puzzling made this game a unique experience.


9. FIFA 15

I was debating weather to put this on the list or not  because historically there not much between each iteration, But this year EA seems to have surpassed themselves.
A very pretty looking game (on PS4 anyway) and much better collision detection makes this a must for football fans.


8. Spelunky

Another one from PS Plus, This action adventure is one of those games which is easy to hate as it is to love.
with huge replay ability its that type of game that has you coming back for more and I was hooked on this for much longer then i care to admit.


7. WWE 2K15

Ok again I wasn't sure weather to put this on the list the collision detection makes the game play exceptional which is unusual for a wrestling game, But half of the modes both game and creation seem to be missing.


6. FTL: Faster Then Light

If you've played this you will get what I'm saying when I say you haven't experienced panic like this in any game before. If you haven't played it then I suggest that you go and play it now, I'm not going to spoil it because i think its best you go in blind. Its exceptional.


5. Mario Kart 8

I can hear you all groaning now and saying its just like every other Mario Kart.
Well apart from the Anti-grav stuff you maybe right but why would you mess to much with a winning formula.
I've had great fun with this since its release weather I've been playing by myself, With my wife or with friends. this has been essential if you've got a WiiU.


4. Pokemon Omega Ruby

I've loved the changes Game Freak made to the Pokemon series when X and Y came out, And now I've had the chance to revisit the old regions but with the updated graphics Im falling in love with Pokemon all over again.


3. Titanfall

I'm sorry this had to go near the top any game that allows you to parkour around the map and then get into a giant Mech and smash things up is ok in my book.
Also the smart pistol seems to have re imagined the FPS.
Sorry Destiny you don't even come close to this as a unique experience.


2. Forza Horizon 2

A game that I'm still playing and actually want to 100%.
I love the Forza series (with the possible exception of Forza 5)
and with the massive disappointment of Drive Club this was a great relief.


1. Binding Of Issac Rebirth 


Somewhat controversial I know but this dungeon crawler is outstanding and is one of the very few games that i find myself going "oh just one more go"
I've completed it many many times and it still throws something new at me.
I don't think i'll ever get board of this and whats more its on PS Plus until well new years day I guess so don't waste time go and get it NOW!!!

Any way that's my top 10 of 2014 let me know yours in the comments bellow and please subscribe to the blog and follow us on Twitter @consolemash
