Time for a new batch of hints:

40) Perhaps one of the most famous cases of a "bug" becoming a feature

39) This highly acclaimed title was caught in some controversy this year

38) As below, so above

37) The revival of revivals

36) Most characters from the original game return in this sequel, though you only meet a few of them before the post game

39 - Bayonetta 3?

38 - Uncharted 4?

Nope, both wrong unfortunately.

Bofferbrauer2 guessed my #40 right on time. #38 and #36 will get a new hint, and I'll add #35.

40 - In a live-action cutscene, your instructor in one level, as you fly one of the enemy's craft, casually refers to your enemies as "Bucketheads".
Hint 2: You'll also have to "follow his lead and do what [he] say".
Hint 3: It is strange though, training rookie pilots by letting them fly enemy fighters at high speeds through extremely narrow chasms. Doesn't seem safe. But this is important, because (in the story anyway), you'll need the knowledge for the capture of the enemy's experimental cloaked fighters that have been wreaking havoc. Guessed by Bofferbrauer2 - Star Wars Rebel Assault II: The Hidden Empire

38 - The single-player mode of this game, the base game anyway, features campaigns for five of the six civilisations, though a mini-level of the sixth can be played as an easter-egg in one of the levels of one of the other campaigns after you find it by revealing the map through a cheat-code.
Hint 2: There are still six campaigns anyway, but the first, which is a tutorial, and the last campaign both feature the same hairy civilisation.
Hint 3: While a high profile franchise, this game still is basically just a reskin of another, well-known but unrelated game

36 - While still great, the expansion for this game tainted the balance somewhat, because the new civilisation could use certain powers multiple times while the original three can only use every power once.
Hint 2: The expansion did add the eponymous unit from this expansion's name though, to the original three civilisations.

35 - The final boss is a dictator in a mech suit. In the Original anyway, it gets pretty complicated.

36) Age of Mythology?
