I liked The Order 1886 and I was a bit shocked how the games was crucified to a point which probably killed the sequel.

Party Hard. The game has a 64 on Metacritic, and I don't understand why. It's a blast. Just a pure fun arcade game and I can't wait for the sequel.



I don't think I like any game that folks loathe generally, but I do like some games that are polarizing or received mixed reviews.

The original Killzone, which had a lot of great combat scenarios, multiple player characters, and a stellar story.

Metroid: Other M, which suffered from some control issues but delivered some excellent action and exploration.

Wolfenstein (2009), which featured nice gunplay and some light RPG elements

Epic Mickey, which combined platforming, morality choices, and plenty of optional quests into an awesome package

Agreed with those 2 games as well. I maintain that anyone who hates the ME:A hasn't given it a proper go. Yes, the animations are off and the dialogue and voice acting at times in cringe worthy but overall the game is pretty good.

Enjoy AC3, but will always prefer Ezio to Connor.

The dialogue and voice acting isnt anymoe cringe worthy than the trilogy. As for AC i like Ezio too but he doesn't eclipse Connor imo

In general, its not better or worse - just there are moments where the voice really fall flat. It breaks the immersion and thats when its truly terrible. The stand out moment is when you get the colony next to the Krogan base - the delivery from Morda where the voice actor barely even pauses for breath. She starts of threatening you but where she offers you and alliance theres barely a chance in her tine of voice.

But it had frame pacing issues and was locked to 30fps on PC as well! :p Or was that NFS Rivals?

I guess most wanted was the one with the city? That was really fun online. Burnout paradise did the stunts better online, most wanted was a blast to race with other people. Damn I miss a good arcade racer, paradise, driver sf, most wanted, rivals. DC is great yet after 3 years it's time for something new. Trackmania Turbo was fun but gets very difficult and the online tracks were the same ones on a loop all the time. Hopefully The crew 2 will be good. I greatly enjoyed the first one as well, also not a popular title.


Have you tried out Forza Horizon 3 yet? It's the goat racer this gen, IMO. The handling model may be too realistic to call it arcade, but if you class Driveclub as arcade, than Horizon 3 might also be classed as arcade, tbh.

Not yet, still waiting for another reason to buy an XBox One (X) than just Forza... There'll be five of them now this q4, yet after VR, that's the only way I want to play sim racers from now on. I played the first one, which was good, just a bit short/smallish open world. I would really like a hot pursuit style game in VR yet I doubt that's going to happen with all those weak stomached people around :) On a screen I always lose sight of the target when they go beside or behind me, VR eliminates that problem.

The only thing I can think of right now is Need for Speed Most Wanted (2012). The map is cleverly crafted, handling is perfect for an arcade racer, the damage model is robust, the multiplayer is integrated seamlessly, and it doesn't have have of the cheesy story of the games past. It's goes straight to pure fun (to be fair I might be biased since I loved Burnout Paradise).

Well they were both develpoed by Criterion. I agree both are fantastic.



I happen to like Sunshine too, and Quest 64 I thought was great...
