Ill get hated for this but Halo 5. Playing it all again on the XB1X and it has suprised me.

Also Rares Replay deserves more credit, probably the best games collection iv ever played. Doesnt really get mentioned much and sounds forgotten. One very good reason to buy a XB1 alone and its cheap.

I would play Halo 5 if Microsoft brings it to PC. They have brought all their games released in 2016 to PC so Halo 5 being a 2015 game should be considered too.

- Arkham Knight is fairly well liked except for the Batmobile sections and the story

- GT Sport got some poor reviews but has a very loyal following. Same for Driveclub and Rainbow Six: Seige

- The Last Guardian wasn't as successful as the other 2 games made by the company, but is still appreciated by a fair bit of the community

- Infamous Second Son's story took me about 6-7 hours to beat which is fairly short for an open world game. It doesn't have much side content either

- Everyone thought IGN was retarded for giving Isolation a 5.9. It's almost as controversial as their Pokémon Omega Ruby and Sapphire review.

- I can't really dispute you on Syndicate. It's a well crafted game, but I thought the combat was so repetitive and mind numbing.

Arkham Knight gets a lot of hate from online communities for those minor flaws.

GT Sport has a loyal following but its reviews will limit its ability to improve its following. Same with Driveclub, Rainbow Six and The Last Guardian. Some players of the genre are missing out just because their purchases are tied to review scores.

Infamous Second Son like any Infamous games requires 2 playthroughs for the full experience. You are clearly missing a big part of the gameplay. It seems you run through the game which is the reason you completed your playthrough so quickly. First playthrough took me 6 hours more.

I know the gaming community saw that IGN's review was wrong but I'm talking about people who only go by the scores which is most of the viewers.

Combat is crap in all the Assassin's Creed games so if you play them for the combat you could do better with another series.

- Fair enough

- Rainbow Six Siege is actually doing fairly well. In 2017, Ubisoft stated that the game had around 25 million registered players. That is very good for such a divisive game. GT Sport launched 4 months ago and has total sales of over 3 million units. It's above its rivals. Driveclub is over 2.5 million units which isn't horrendous for an initially empty game. The Last Guardian sold better than the 2 previous Team Ico games. It's the type of game casuals wouldn't have bought anyway.

- I've played through Infamous Second Son 4 times (2 times for each side). Personally, it did not make much of a difference for me.

- Good point. Studios do have to consider having to cater to the casual crowd

- I play them for the general atmosphere and mood that the environment creates. They've seemed to have been lacking in this since AC4. Syndicate isn't gonna be stuck in my memory like AC2 was. The parkour and the combat are kind of the only things I can appreciate in this series anymore.
