the game’s realism is thanks in part to
a proprietary engine that featured at
the time groundbreaking dynamic lighting
and physics the single-player campaign
is short but satisfying and the
release the same year as Modern Warfare
crisis also starts with a frightening
plausible premise conflict between the
u.s. and North Korea but from that point
on things get wonderfully weird the
gorgeous ahead of their time graphics
made possible by the games demanding
CryEngine – whose atmosphere and style
and the open nonlinear gameplay and

number eight quake to sure it might not
be the best looking game nowadays but
shoulder your shotgun and travel back
with us to a pic sillier time in
software brought us all the old-time
greats
building on each in turn Wolfenstein
doom and of course quake quake 2 was a
landmark game for its introduction of an
actual plot of sorts no matter how

makes it a must play today is the fluid
gameplay the varied and gruesome
cybernetic enemies and the iconic
arsenal from the gratifyingly savage
super shotgun to everyone’s favorite the
number seven Counter Strike global

course this guy while doom 3 shifted
gears into a suspenseful survival horror
game doom 2016 return to the roots of
the series with frenzied push forward or
Die gameplay against overwhelming odds
it’s an unabashed Gore fest of brutal
bloody combat using fists bullets
rockets and naturally your trusty
chainsaw at the same time it’s software
also added welcome updates such as
character upgrades melee glory kills and
a range of collectables while the
multiplayer mode received mixed reviews
the single-player campaign is nothing
it isn’t easy to reinvent a classic the
original Metroid is one of Nintendo’s
most celebrated games a puzzle
platformer that puts you in control of
bounty hunter Samus Aran as she defends
the galaxy from nefarious space pirates
moving Metroid’s platform based gameplay
to the first-person was a huge gamble
but it worked
allowing players to feel like they’ve
been transported into the franchise’s
atmospheric world with its fine balance
of exploration puzzles and combat the
title wolf captures the spirit of the
series and stands on its own as an
original enthralling experience that’s
first-person shooters were slow to
migrate to consoles while Goldeneye
double-oh-seven proofed console shooters
were possible halo showed once and for
all that they were here to stay
launching an impressive list of sequels
prequels and spin-offs with a compelling
narrative a rich detailed sci-fi world
and enjoyable combat Halo was an instant
classic with a decent multiplayer mode
to boot
but the biggest reason you need to play
halo before you die is it’s ridiculously
entertaining split-screen modes both in
campaign and multiplayer let’s just say
number three half-life you’ll never look
at a crowbar the same way again Valve’s
immersive narrative driven debut
redefined the genre working seamless
scripted sequences into gameplay to
craft an epic and original story even
half life’s hero was unusual for the
time a scientist rather than a military
man who really just wants to laser some
anomalous materials with your standard
workplace anti-mass spectrometer the
game’s relative realism smooth gameplay
and a riveting storyline earned
half-life over 50 Game of the Year
awards and was followed up by a stunning
sequel for new players who find the
retro graphics a challenge third party
remake Black Mesa updates most of the
game but however you play it this is a
title that will change how you see
number two Bioshock I chose
[Music]
when the first shooters came out who
would have suspected that Shauna would
have ever been called literate
thoughtful or an art form but those were
all words used to describe Bioshock
which plunged players into a game world
of unprecedented detail and startling
beauty with both conventional weapons
and powerful genetic modifications
players navigate the underwater city of
Rapture brought to life by intriguing
non-player characters and a
thought-provoking story while the
sequels refined the gameplay and the
world of BioShock Infinite is also
fascinating and hauntingly relevant
there’s just something about the
somebody went on to sweet baby girl into
a monitor before we get to our number
one pick here are some honorable
immersive narratives detailed lore and
moral dilemmas are all great but
sometimes you just want to blast some
demons back to health there’s something
about the simplicity of doom that also
keeps it appealing adding the brutal
doom mod developed by martyr sergeant
mark 4 and this blast from the past is
new again in surprising ways with new
weapons improved enemies gore galore

great way to revisit a classic or if
