I don’t like being a Debbie Downer, but 2014 was pretty underwhelming, right? The big hits didn’t quite hit like I was hoping they would (Destiny and Watch Dogs, I’m looking at you!) and most games that did hit weren’t all that surprising or innovative.

The best video game we played this year. The Last of Us Naughty Dog gripped us from the very beginning with The Last of Us.
