Best Xbox 360 Game of 2014

gamrReview's Xavier Griffiths: "In its ninth year on the market the Xbox 360 continued to play host to a staggering amount of high quality game releases. With the spotlight shifting to the newer generation of consoles you could be forgiven for thinking the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 are well behind the times.

But no, the Xbox 360 continued to be one of the best places to play AAA calibre games. Our nominees for best Xbox 360 Game of 2014 leans heavily on adventure fantasy fare, taking you to distant lands full of danger and excitement."

The only game on that list that i played and am still playing at 30% in is far cry 4. But i wouldn't call it one of the best games of 2014 just yet, in fact with all the sidequests and huge map i chalk it up as another gta clone set in india...it's an ok game but it has yet to make me say wow...

I have yet to buy into next gen, current gen, or whatever people want to call it because i feel there are still a bunch of great games in last gen that i haven't played and are now so much cheaper...but that's for another article.

Played and enjoyed Far Cry, Far Cry 3 and 4 campaigns .

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor93d ago

Yeah, 4 was good, was hard choosing which Golden Dawn member to side with, when they were both pieces of sh!t.
I've beaten all the main entries except 2 and 6, ended up uninstalling 6 to download something else instead.

Profchaos93d ago

I'd love a far cry pack with the original PC game (not the half assed port on ps360) instincts, predator even a port of far cry 2 to modern consoles back when these games had their own identity and weren't far cry 3 cut and pastel

Demetrius93d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger8893d ago (Edited 93d ago )

Same here, I don't know why these games get so much hate. I've thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them, with only a couple of exceptions. I wish they'd hurry up and announce Far Cry 7. The only thing I'm concerned about is the rumoured time limit.

Hidetaka Miyazaki claims Dark Souls 2 “carried” the series forward

The game isn't good though.

Rols110d ago

DS2 was fine. While there was a bit of recycling assets or ideas for bosses, it was a bigger more open Dark Souls. The Fume knight boss is one of the hardest bosses in the series until Sekiro and Elden Ring were released.

CrimsonWing69110d ago

The problem with Dark Souls 2 was the same problem when a different director takes over for a sequel to an outstanding movie. It typically (there are exceptions) doesn’t have the feel and vision of the previous movie.

I wouldn’t say Dark Souls 2 is terrible. Had Dark Souls 1 never been a thing and we got this, I think it would have been praised more. The problem is it didn’t have the Miyazaki touch to it and felt pretty derivative. The soundtrack is a banger though.

Aussiesummer110d ago

And it will happen in the future when he doesn’t touch them as he is planning on.

MrBaskerville110d ago

I like DS 2, might even be my favorite of the 3. But it's a hard sell, there's so many obscure things you need to do to make it an enjoyable experience. So always find it hard to recommend, but it is worth the trouble.
