TheGamer News Team s Favorite Games Of 2019

This year has been a boon for the medium, and frankly, it's hard to pick just five games that I fell in love with (sorry, Pokemon !) But from top-notch fighters to tripped-out techno-thrillers, from RPG masterpieces to ornate remakes, one game edges everything out. __ Resident Evil 2 is not just a stellar remake, it's a master-class in game design - a brilliant case of how to do literally everything right, then somehow go beyond that. It's a sumptuous visual feast held together by tense, responsive gameplay that understands how to maintain what makes classic survival horror while being accessible to contemporary audiences. It's a game literally anyone can enjoy - unless you're a bit squeamish - and the best entry of the franchise to d


Compared to other Assault Legends, Revenant isn’t a head-on attacker. His toolkit is built to first destabilize enemy forces before striking with his Apex Legends teammates , ensuring opponents are at their weakest before Revenant’s team lands the killing blow. Since Revenant can only make the jump at opponents after silencing them, players are encouraged to stalk their prey and maintain their distance before securing an ambush. This means the ideal Apex Legends gameplay for this Legend relies heavily on positioning and trapping opponents in areas where even firefights won’t do much to save them. Here are recommended approaches to Rev’s gamep


Disco Elysium is a game where you can be a godawful human being or a superstar cop. I don't think I've had more fun this year with a game than I did stumbling around as my drunken detective, wearing a kimono and waxing poetic about liquor, karaoke, and the pointlessness of life. It's not for everyone, but if you love world-building and playing as self-loathing scumbags, then you should be playing Disco Elysium until you're face down on the fl


Fire Emblem had been spinning its wheels for a long time before the release of Three Houses . Who could have guessed that the latest Fire Emblem game would be one of the most absorbing games of the year, with an interesting overarching story and an incredible battle system that is engaging without being watered down or too difficult to grasp. It can be hard to finish a game once, but Fire Emblem: Three Houses can easily convince players to go through it three times to see the whole story. It’s just a shame that you can’t pet the dog


Another great option for INTJs is Caustic the poison expert. Rather than manipulating enemies into a firefight, Caustic is all about setting poisonous traps for them. Getting your enemy to fall into your poisonous trap can be exhilarating for the tactical INTJ, especially when it wins you the bat


How could it be anything other than Slay The Spire (I say, knowing full well I almost put Tetris 99 in this spot)? After initial frustration, Slay The Spire's various baddies are like this old friends now - they're familiar, I've learned their rhythms. The cards and relics aren't mysteries to me anymore. Its delightful weirdness is old hat. And yet I find myself returning to it time and time again because it's just so clever, and it makes me feel clever - when I pay attention to it, when I'm not zoning out and just enjoying the jour


The classic remake totally revitalized our love for the game and series overall. Pretty much everything about it was well-executed... and, I mean, c'mon. The addition of the beloved Tofu Survivor should be enough to make any Game of the Year l

The gameplay trailer starts with a friendly-sounding advertisement for Hammond Robotics. If you're not familiar with Hammond Robotics, check out the (fake) company's website to learn about its role in building "hundreds of advanced spaceborne and mechanized defense solutio


It's safe to say season four has a lot of potential to right some wrongs of the previous season - and just as much potential to wrong some rights. What Respawn's going to do is anyone's guess, though the fans certainly have their own ideas on what worked and what didn't with season three. That said, here are five things we'd love to see in season four, as well as five things that Apex Legends is probably best off leaving beh


In pursuing the hop-up route, it might prove more successful than the Hammerpoints in bringing some life to the Mozambique and P2020. Players could conceivably be given the option to pick up a second Mozambique as a hop-up rather than a standalone wea

Should your attack fail, using a smoke bomb or artillery strike can allow you to disengage from the fight and retreat to assess what went wrong. This combined with the fact that Bangalore gets faster when under fire means that she is a hard woman to get the jump


Intellectual, innovative, and creative, INTPs are all about logic and providing different perspectives. Wraith is all about flinging herself into the void, hearing voices from the other side, and weaving between dimensions, so that is awesome. Wraith is more above ducking in and out of battles; she knows when to push the advantage and when to do a tactical retr
