So I began to write a response to this the day it came out but I got too emotionally invested in writing my recommendation of The Last of Us I had to stop:
The Last of Us - It's a game set 20 years into a post-apocalyptic world. You follow Joel, a smuggler who is given the task of taking an immune girl to a group called The Fireflies, who believes the girl is the key to finding a cure. Prepare for an emotional roller coaster of a game, it's absolutely amazing and I'm trying so hard not to spoil it.
Until Dawn - This was a fun horror game, where your bad choices and even worse reaction times will lead to the untimely death of the teens you control in the game. It starts off looking like a classic cheesy horror flick, where a handful of hormonal teens are unsupervised in a lodge in the snowy woods. A prank on two of the girls goes wrong, and they run away in shame and are never found. A year later, the brother of those girls invites all the friends back, asking to celebrate their memory, however, of course, there's a deranged killer stalking everyone. Have fun!
Watch Dogs - The story begins with Aiden Pearce, the main character, hacking and stealing money from people in a hotel with the aid of his partner, Damien. Their hacking presence is detected, and someone orders a hit on Aiden. Instead of killing Aiden, his 6 year old niece, Lena, is killed by accident. Aiden with all his fighting and hacking skills begins hunting for the person that ordered the hit that killed his niece. While this game took me a while to complete, I learned my new favorite french swear from this game (that aside), this is a top 5 game so far. The sequel Watch Dogs 2 isn't nearly as dark, and I really wasn't a fan of it.
