quick here and one of the biggest questions that always comes up in the gaming community is of course what is your pick for game of the year or even what are your top five picks and that's exactly what this video is about now just to be clear these are my top five personal favorite PC games to come out this year that are big-name titles I'm not trying to say that these are objectively the best games I'm not trying to say that I've played every PC game out there and these are definitely the best ones I'm just listing out my personal favorites that I want to share with you guys so if you haven't played them you should check them out now another thing about me is that I am really really bad at picking favorites and while picking five is easier than picking one ranking them from first to fifth is just even worse for me so I'm just not even going to do it I'm just gonna tell you guys my top 5 favorite games no particular order so let's go ahead and check out that list right now so to kick things off I'm going to go ahead and just cheat just a little bit here by listing a game that is technically DLC but it is standalone and worth every penny of its 15 dollar price tag Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon what you do is you take the solid gameplay and terrain design from one of my favourite games of last year Far Cry 3 kick out the multiplayer and add in a parody focused storyline that keeps you laughing and grinning the whole way through now as a warning how much you can enjoy this game is heavily reliant on your knowledge of 80s action movies and cartoons but there is a healthy number of flat-out gaming jokes to to round these out if you have no idea what's going on throw on some new weapons and some bloodthirsty dinosaurs and the fact that the game doesn't require far cry 3 at all to play it and you have a standalone FPS worth picking up not just for the action but also the comedy honestly guys I can't emphasize enough the fact that for 15 bucks this game is really worth picking up you should really just give it a shot or even try picking up if you ever see it on sale because then it's just easily worth it now next up I'm still cheating a little bit this game is actually an expansion for another title where you do have to have both but it adds enough single-player content and redesigns the multiplayer and up to be on par with many games that are released on a yearly basis and then a Starcraft 2 heart of the swarm featuring the loved RTS multiplayer mode of the series with a new chapter in the campaign that runs a great balance of traditional RTS with more simple top-down RPG mechanics with plenty of special units of content to help make the experience of the single-player very unique compared to the multiplayer whether you're a skilled player looking to actively compete online or just a novice looking for a solid and generally flat-out fun single-player campaign then this one is worth the purchase even if you have to go out your way to grab wings of Liberty first now the next three games on the list are all actual brand new fully released titles no more DLC no more expansions I promise and the first one is one that I think a lot of people are having a hard time leaving out of their top 5 lists and that's BioShock Infinite featuring a new story and setting with a healthy number of nods to the first game infinite is in many ways the sequel to Bioshock that many of us had been waiting for giving the main character a voice personality and companion alongside some new mechanics and a well written though at times super convoluted story and placing it in a beautiful city in the skies helped to make this title a favorite for many this year with some particularly zealous fans going so far to say decade well I'm not too sure about that myself I still have to say that BioShock Infinite is a tastic singleplayer FPS title worthy of your time if you have yet to experience it now the next game on the list is one that's going to seem like a bit of a curveball for some of you and that's probably because you've either never tried the game or never tried its predecessor and that's rayman legends now this one follows up the amazing Rayman Origins legends continues to prove that light-hearted silly platforming can still not only be fun but also rewarding challenging and that 2d styled cartoon istic games can still be just as gorgeous as a title struggling to be photorealistic it can prove to be a challenging experience to fully complete if you're going at it alone while taking its multiplayer might lighten the burden but result in an overall hilarious and fun co-op adventure now if you're the kind of person that just saw that game playing thought to yourself why the hell would I want to play something so childish all I gotta say is I feel sorry for you because you're missing out on one of the most potent concentrated forms of happiness I've ever seen in a video game really you need to actually give it a shot if you don't want to put down 40 bucks for this one try out origins first it's only 20 worth every penny now last but not least on the list is a game that definitely caught me off guard the most this year not that I expected it to be a bad game just that I didn't expect to find myself loving it as much as I did and that is the reboot of Tomb Raider now we'll admit the game starts off a little shaky because it looks like it's just going to be a quick time event marathon but then the rest of the game just opens up to have this great exploration of height forming combined with solid third-person shooter and melee combat mechanics add on to this great visuals a solid story and puzzles that while shorter and supply that I'd like make for some fantastic sidequest content the multiplayer experience it offers is nothing to rave about but it does nothing to detract from how great the single-player game turned out to be like I said this game caught me completely off guard I remember seeing a lot of the early on previews for it and gameplay thinking okay new tomb raider that might be fun will give it a shot once I got my hands on it I absolutely fell in love with the single-player campaign totally worth picking up so those are my top 5 personally favorite PC big-name titles come out this year if the game that you love didn't make the list it's either because I had the unfortunate luck of not checking it out and missing out on the fun or just didn't make the cut for me personally so let us know in the comments let us know what your pick for game of the year is or even a full top 5 list if you want
