FFXIV Realm Reborn. From the rock bottom of FFXIII and the original FFXIV, it was refreshing to play a good FF game again.
Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII. XII was so bad, that even mediocre XIII is a nice return to form.
Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth. Digimon games were pretty bad since Digimon World 4, this game was quite fun and restored my interest in the franchise.
