There are many games that were released in the past decade, which had a great impact on gaming and also showed us how much we love them today. The year 2013 will be remembered for the release of Resident Evil and others. In addition to these titles there have been a lot of great games like Rocket League, Portal, Warframe and Apex Legends that have helped people get acquainted with newer genres and games. Here is the top five that I think still hold up today.
1. HITMAN III
This was one of the best first person shooters on PS4 and PS Vita. It was designed by Koei Tecmo and starred Chansey Ho in it. It has all kinds of gameplay and combat styles, such as stealth, special ops, guns blazing, firefights and an advanced pistol loadout for close-quarters fighting. One thing that has made this game so strong all over the world is its excellent graphics. They have great detail work in it, including realistic gun reloading animations along with amazing effects and lighting. This has given it an edge against most shooter veterans. Also, you can play online games with friends or with strangers.
2. METRO DREAD
Metroid Dread is an action RPG set in space. While some might call it “a typical survival horror” some would disagree. That genre has changed quite a bit since Metroid V and it is much better done than remade. A very different way of presenting problems that have happened to humanity in the course of this game makes it incredibly unique and entertaining. Despite being the same age as Cyberpunk 2077, the genre feels more recent than any other. An original title was created in 2015 which has a sequel planned to come out later in 2021 in which some big names from Resident Evil and Dark Souls return along with a few less known names. As well as having one of the longest titles ever, it has lots of replayability options.
3. INSCRYPTATION
Inscryptation is another fast paced action RPG game that started releasing earlier this year during the holiday season after putting on sale in March. This one was developed by Gameloft and came preloaded on Steam and PC. With a full retail price of $39.99 it is definitely not cheap but it offers plenty of quality content you can spend hours in and the single player campaign is the greatest in gaming history. All in all, this is a must try! Players need to go through certain levels just to realize what is happening inside their head and how that changes when they act in unison. It is the perfect mix between cooperative and competitive and gives you an incredible sense of accomplishment once you reach certain sections. Although there is nothing similar to Destiny 2, players can find solace in the fact that this game does have loads of stuff to do and there are lots of side quests that you can discover within the main story.
4. IT TAKES TWO
This game has a lot of buzz around it and I don’t blame anyone! Two Brothers is truly a classic RPG from Capcom where two boys with psychic abilities unite to fight evil demons and save the universe from death. Their journey is filled with fun puzzle solving battles which are easy to beat and are packed full of humor. Some of the better laughs in this game are found near the beginning when two brothers become enemies after killing each other’s souls. When brother number two returns he learns everything that his brother knows and decides he needs to use the power of his psychic powers in order to save humanity from extinction. He travels across Europe to England and South America to help stop future disasters like nuclear war, global warming and climate change.
