Games of 2016: 5 That Will Be Amazeballs, 5 That Will Be Just Balls

2015 has had something for everyone. But what’s coming next? Which games of 2016 will melt our collective faces? What’s going to suck our will to live?

[Digital_Anomaly]

Hahahaha.... best title EVER.

[MercilessDMercer]

I openly laughed when I read this!

[uptownsoul]

I can't wait for Horizon:Zero Dawn...That game will be UNBELIEVABLE!!!

[GrapesOfRaf]

Yup, pretty excited about all of these. Even Gears of War, might have to borrow an XB1 to play it.

[voodoopickle]

I agree with scalebound. The hero just seems annoying. The game looks , but that's about it.

[syotos77]

I'm sorry, but I played in the closed alpha for For Honor, and it had the best combat of any game I've played in my lifetime. I only got to play as one class on one map and still enjoyed it for hours. It's also worth mentioning that the closed alpha version was more polished than most ubi games final releases to date. Don't count this one out.

[Paulhammer]

Great! Glad you were impressed. I haven't been up to this point, but believe me I WANT to be wrong about these games being bad.

[syotos77]

Did you get the chance to try it?

[Paulhammer]

@syotos: I have not had my hands on a controller for For Honor. Stood behind plenty of folks playing at E3 though. It's the premise of the thing that concerns me, like it could be super shallow, much like Battlefront.

[sullynathan]

Yup, I like how this idiot just assumes that those games will be good or bad for those weak reasons.

[UserNameIsNotTaken]

He played them? o.o
He must be special! D:

[Paulhammer]

Some I've played, some I haven't.

[Paulhammer]

Glad you disagree. What makes you think I'm wrong?

For the record, I hope they're all great. My first hand experience with all of the above up until now are how I decided on this list.

[DJustinUNCHAIND]

I love how this dude hates the protagonist of Scalebound...

Yet snarky protagonists have been plaguing JRPG's since their inception.

[ColonelHugh]

Uh, I don't know when you think JRPGs were incepted, but the VAST majority had protagonists with literally zero personality because they only spoke in player-driven choices. The 'snark' started becoming mainstream circa roughly the early 2000s when Japan's core gaming bubble broke and Japanese companies pandered to the teen demographic.

[Big_Game_Hunters]

Hideki kamiya game on games that will suck, Guerilla game on games that will be great.

Thats cute.

[Segata]

Only game I want listed is Scalebound and Platinum always delivers in deep combos heavy combat plus they made a great RPG on DS. They know how to make great games. Guerilla makes mediocre games yet praised lol.

[kenwonobi]

Horizon Zero Dawn, Uncharted4, and Final Fantasy for me. Maybe The Last Guardian.

[ChronicPsycho]

Fully agree with the list that'll suck balls except last guardian. That'll be amazing. The others looks complete trash.

[Christopher]

Surprised FFXV is on the side of the list that it is on.

[Tzuno]

My balls are ready.
