3 RepliesI don't buy into or build hype unless I have my own hands on a game. So for me it's every game.

Halo Reach, I was hyped as hell for it and I love it still

1 Replybatman arkham knight will definitely live up to the hype because rocksteady took the reins back from wb montreal

A friend of mine hyped lords of the fallen up for me. I wasn't a big fan of dark souls so I didn't take much notice but after several hours playing it I'm pretty hooked
-
Grand Theft Auto, the Batman Arkham series, and the Souls games always seem to deliver. And a personal shout-out to EA's NHL and Codemasters' F1: I buy both titles every year.

Borderlands, Skyrim, The Long Dark

Ori and the Blind Forest

Heist are great in GTA Online.

Forza 5. They never hyped huge numbers of cars or tracks just the most highly realistic and accurate racing game to date. They delivered.

1 ReplyMost games are pretty good, I think our expectations have gone up more than they should have. Long games aren't necessarily better, especially if the length is achieved by grinding or meaningless side quests. Certain games also appeal to different audiences. Destiny has great gameplay, The Order looks like it'll have a great story (I've avoided spoilers) and Dragon Age has good empire building and exploration. I'm feeling a bit underwhelmed by most of the PS4 games I have, but I think it's mostly due to the developers not taking full advantage of the new hardware. If I had to guess, late 2015 and Q1 2016 will be amazing. Final Fantasy XV and Uncharted 4 will likely live up to "next gen."
