MONG’s Best of 2014 Award Winners – Part Three

2014 was certainly a wild year for gaming.

The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One both set record sales for a console’s first year on the market, reassuring gamers and “analysts” everywhere that console gaming is here to stay.  Microsoft decided to release a Kinect-less Xbox One bundle after saying it would never happen.  The PlayStation 4 failed to release any major blockbuster first party games during the holiday season, while the Xbox One released a hit new IP in Sunset Overdrive.

We saw the rise and fall of mobile games like Flappy Bird.  Games like Titanfall, Watch Dogs, and Destiny were all finally released only to be ripped apart by gamers with too much hype.  While less hyped games like Wolfenstein: The New Order, Valiant Hearts: The Great War, and The Evil Within managed to blow everyone away.  We were flooded with “HD remakes” of games – some that we have wanted for a long time, and some that were just released a year ago on last generation consoles.

All of that combined to make this years Best of 2014 Awards a really fun one.

The Legend of Zelda X Mario Kart 8 Review

THE BEST KART RACER JUST GOT BETTER

 Super Smash Kart are three words I never wanted to hear… until now. I originally wanted Mario Kart to stay in the Mario universe. But, I’m pleased to say that I was pleasantly surprised by the first DLC pack for Mario Kart 8. Not only is it amazing value for money but the crossover tracks and vehicles are, on the whole, fantastic. In fact, the only thing I want more of, ironically, is The Legend of Zelda.
