From the creator of ToeJam & Earl comes a game about a robot searching for humanity. Doki-Doki Universe has players flying through twenty different planets, all in hopes of finding what makes humans tick. Meet more than a hundred characters and solve missions in this quirk, though terribly shallow, adventure game for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3 and PS Vita!

It's not the best Call of Duty game in the franchise, but Ghosts is still a class leader in multiplayer gameplay and offers up a few new modes that's sure to keep players engaged until next November.

Saint Seiya: Brave Soldiers is a fighting game based around Greek mythology and God-like characters that are able to perform magical acts. And yet somehow this translates into one of the least interesting fighting games on the market. This PlayStation 3-exclusive is long-winded, simplistic and not much fun to play!

Updated graphics and player visuals are what make FIFA 14 worth picking up. The stadiums and fields look spectacular, though some minor issues with gameplay elements can bring the game back down a notch. For a title that may not have been rushed, but definitely hurried for launch, EA Sports did a good job in getting soccer fans their fix.

With an emphasis on customization and an ambitious multiplayer mode, Armored Core: Verdict Day is a game I respect. Unfortunately, it's not a game I had much fun playing. Too much of my time was spent figuring out the nuance of an admittedly complicated game. Fans will likely eat this sequel up, but Verdict Day makes it hard for newcomers and casual mech fans alike.

An OK effort for an Arkham game, Batman Arkham Origins feels too similar to Arkham City and there are a few game breaking bugs that prevent it from being worthy to stand with the other two.

Flying Wild Hog has topped their previous game, Hard Reset, in nearly every respect with Shadow Warrior. A myriad of beautiful environments, crazy but balanced and innovative combat, and a smoother difficulty curve prove that the Polish studio has graphical, level and gameplay design talent to spare. Don’t miss this one.

Alien Rage is a game whose initial presentation evokes the likes of Halo, Gears of War, and Killzone, but never lives up to such standards. Frustrating and often unfair difficulty, tedious boss fights, and bland level design make this game feel like an empty shell of its lofty inspirations. In a genre saturated with great games, you could do much better than Alien Rage.

Skylanders Swap Force brings back a very familiar game with a few upgrades and a slug of new characters. Those that are huge fans of the franchise will be comfortable with this familiarity, while those that are just getting into the game for the first time will find a very fun and additive title. For either group, be prepared to add to your Skylanders figurine collection, as there are more areas than ever that require specific Swap Force, Giant or base series elemental Skylanders to unlock and complete all facets of the missions. Although I really like Swap Force and am a huge proponent of the franchise, I have concerns that if fundamental changes are not made to the game play to keep the original aging audience from the previous titles of the franchise engaged, these gamers (and their parents) will lose interest over time.

BioShock Infinite and The Last of Us are incredible games, but this has easily secured my vote for 2013‘s game of the year. Dragon’s Crown is a masterpiece. The gameplay is simple enough for casual play but offers deep components to compliment it for those who want more from their games on both single and multiplayer levels. RPG and action fans alike will easily get lost in this magnificent world for hundreds of hours. Plus, it doesn’t hurt that it just might be the most beautiful video game I have ever seen.
