What is the best game in the world in 2013? Results of the past game year

The year of 2013 was very prolific for excellent projects. It's not surprising, because such a boom in igrostroe always happens at sunset generations of consoles. Now we will tell you about the best video games of the past year in the genres FPS, TPS, RPG, Strategy, Racing, Sport, MMO and Horror. What is the best game in the world in the last year? Let's start to sum up.

Best FPS-game

As always, the main battle for the gaming audience has unfolded between the companies Activision and EA with their Call of Duty: Ghosts and Battlefield 4, respectively. However, it is worth noting that other titles also deserve no less attention. Especially, the CoD series has long since slipped to total self-copying, where in addition to new maps and a couple of new buns, innovations are at its minimum, and Battlefield 4 looks more like Battlefield 3.5, but not a full fourth. But to other games that can be awarded the title of the best FPS, there are practically no claims.

First of all, I would like to mention the BioShock Infinite, developed by the Irrational Games studio. Stunning scenery of Colombia, an exciting 100% atmosphere, dynamic gameplay, thoughtful characters and insanely high-quality plot that does not inferior to the masterpieces of Christopher Nolan and David Fincher in the film industry, make BioShock Infinite the best FPS-game in 2013.

As for the other projects, Metro Last Light, developed by the Ukrainian company 4A Games, deserves special attention. The first part of the game has sunk into the soul of many domestic gamers in view of its pumping atmosphere, beautiful graphics, recreating the landscapes of post-apocalyptic Moscow, memorable characters, excellent dialogues and a good plot. The second part only improved all these elements, making the game even more lively and interesting. Finally, Crysis 3 also came out good, but it could not reach inner harmony. Yes, the graphics are pretty, but we're not into it, are we? As for the multiplayer battles, no one was able to compete with the Swedish Battlefield 4, which could offer a real war in a virtual dimension with a falling skyscraper, exploding dikes and buildings, full-scale air, sea and land battles. What can I say, "Battle" for a long time no one will be able to compose a full-fledged competition.

Best TPS Game

What is the best game in the world for the past 2013 in the genre of a thriller from a third party? This question is difficult to answer, because there are 2 projects that can earn this award. Let's name them, and what is better, everyone will choose himself.

Let's start, perhaps, with GTA 5. As before, Rockstar created another masterpiece in the genre of TPS, and plus to that - added a huge amount of innovations. Of course, the most significant novelty was the concept of three main characters, each of which you can manage at any time and in any place. What is characteristic, it's not just 3 zashtampovannyh character - it's 3 different personalities with their skills, friends, habits, temperament. In addition, GTA 5 can please the excellent setting of tasks and cut scenes, a huge number of opportunities for pastime games outside the story missions, a large city and exciting graphics. In general, everything is in place. In principle, it is the brainchild of Rockstar who can win the "The World's Best Game of the Year 2013" award.

Next, say a few words about the exclusive for PS3 - The Last of Us. Studio Naughty Dog, which is known for the series Uncharted, last summer pleased the gaming community with a completely new title, snatched the highest praise from both critics and the players themselves. It seemed that the zombie theme had already completely exhausted itself, but the developers again proved that the efforts can only lead to victory. We are faced with a harsh and sad history that arose on the ruined ruins of mankind. The Last of Us managed to tell us the dramatic story of two completely different people caught up together, and dynamic gameplay, atmospheric dialogues and magnificent scenery only complement the overall picture of delight. It is worth noting that many well-known publications The Last of Us received the award as "The best game in the world." As for the rest of the projects, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, Tomb Raider 2013 and Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Blacklist turned out to be quite good.

Best RPG

And here there was a misfire. The year of 2013 was extremely stingy for role-playing games, and really worthwhile projects were completely absent. In general, if you want, then try out Pokemon X and Y and Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Edition.

The best strategy

What is the best game in the world in the genre of strategy for 2013? Indeed, quality strategies in 2013 came out two: Total War: Rome II and SimCity (2013). Both deserve the highest praise, but it is impossible to pinpoint only one, because they are absolutely different in the subject of the game. The first is an excellent military-economic strategy, where diplomatic, economic and political systems are remarkably implemented, very dynamic and bloody battles involving hundreds of units are taking place, a well-thought-out system of "pumping" characters, beautiful scenery and spectacular effects, a huge map and stuff . Dignity in this game is more than enough. Of course, at launch there were some bugs, but they were fixed by patches. Second, Simcity is the best city-building simulator at the moment, where many features and interrelation with other players are perfectly realized.

The best racing game

The race last year was enough. We will not talk for a long time about each, but we note that the best of the best were hardcore exclusive for the PS3 - Gran Turismo 6, which absorbed all the best for the history of the series (dozens of colorful tracks, thousands of cars, beautiful graphics), another project in the series Need For Speed - NFS Rivals, offering a bouncy war between daring riders and fair police, and, finally, Grid 2 is a casual simulator for fans of naughty races with stunning graphics and physics.

Other genres

What is the best game in the world in the genres of Sport, MMO and Horror? We will not be very rhetoric, calling only the best representatives of the genre. Among the sports games, the most successful was FIFA 2014, which is especially well implemented on consoles of a new generation. The best online game of the world (MMO) is Dota 2. We do not need any words here, because everyone knows this title. Finally, the best project in the horror genre was Outlast.
