1. South Park: The Stick of TruthSouth Park: The Stick of Truthhttps://giantbomb.com/wiki/Games/South_Park_The_Stick_of_TruthOpens wiki page

This was basically a good episode of the show with some light RPG mechanics. Not much to get in the way of a fun story.

2. Middle-earth: Shadow of MordorMiddle-earth: Shadow of Mordorhttps://giantbomb.com/wiki/Games/Middle_earth_Shadow_of_MordorOpens wiki page

Like two of my favorite games--Arkham Asylum and AC: Brotherhood--I was inspired to go back into the world after finishing the story to complete the side missions.

This game is hard to stop once you get going on a few good runs.

4. HearthstoneHearthstonehttps://giantbomb.com/wiki/Games/HearthstoneOpens wiki page

Fun way to pass the time. It can be frustrating at times, but wow, are wins exciting.

5. Wolfenstein: The New OrderWolfenstein: The New Orderhttps://giantbomb.com/wiki/Games/Wolfenstein_The_New_OrderOpens wiki page

A good way to make a WWII shooter more interesting. Good action and an intriguing story.

6. Diablo III: Reaper of SoulsDiablo III: Reaper of Soulshttps://giantbomb.com/wiki/Games/Diablo_III_Reaper_of_SoulsOpens wiki page

I held off on buying the expansion for a long time, but I shouldn't have. It's just more Diablo. And that's never a bad thing.

7. A Bird StoryA Bird Storyhttps://giantbomb.com/wiki/Games/A_Bird_StoryOpens wiki page

Beautiful, emotional story. Excellent follow-up to To the Moon.

8. DestinyDestinyhttps://giantbomb.com/wiki/Games/Destiny_2014Opens wiki page

Gorgeous game and the action was pretty spot-on for Bungie. Unfortunately the story missions were pretty forgettable.

9. Call of Duty: Advanced WarfareCall of Duty: Advanced Warfarehttps://giantbomb.com/wiki/Games/Call_of_Duty_Advanced_WarfareOpens wiki page

Nothing wrong with this installment of CoD. I was more engaged with the story than usual, and the added suit mechanics were quite nice.

I need to spend more time with this game, as it did not immediately grab me.
