The Last of Us

BioShock Infinite

2. BioShock Infinite

So great. (Check out my user review!)

Grand Theft Auto V

3. Grand Theft Auto V

There are lots of tiny (and some not-so-tiny) flaws, but damn if I didn't have a whole lot of fun with GTA V. Los Santos is a magnificently constructed world that's fun to live in, but my favorite part ended up being the characters of Michael and Trevor, and their story. Franklin...not so much.

Rogue Legacy

4. Rogue Legacy

Addicting and rewarding. You receive enough permanent rewards and feedback to make this rogue-like palatable to someone like me.

Super Mario 3D World

5. Super Mario 3D World

Gone Home

6. Gone Home

An engrossing experience that tells a very moving story. The storytelling that develops from simply exploring a home is fascinating, and a testament to exceptional execution.

Sound Shapes

7. Sound Shapes

Fun, relaxing, music-based platformer. Wish there was a soundtrack for the great music, Beck's especially.

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons

8. Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons

Very moving story that is successfully married to its gameplay in a way that few other games can achieve. Its beautifully-crafted world enhances the experience. And that music...oh man. So good.

Papers, Please

10. Papers, Please

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

11. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
