XboxFitness.org. The Best Exercise Games for the Xbox Kinect. The Best Fitness Games for Xbox One. It’s no secret that Microsoft kind of goofed when they told consumers that they had to own a Kinect if they wanted to own an Xbox One. This probably seemed like a logical decision in Redmond at the time–if the Wii sold 100,000,000 units, surely the Xbox One would sell double that with superior motion controls, graphics, and processing power. Fast forward to a few years later. The Xbox One has sold maybe a tenth of that number, lost a heaping amount of market share to Sony, and abandoned the requirement that Xbox One owners had to have a Kinect. The miscalculation that Microsoft made, of course, was assuming that superior hardware was all that was needed. But in many ways they were their own worst enemy. They had their chance with the Kinect 1.0 to impress consumers, but far too many Kinect games were too sluggish or difficult to control. By the time Kinect 2.0 came around, most consumers had already given up on it. Game publishers couldn’t afford to invest the time and effort needed to support a technology, cool though it may have been, that few people were interested in. And yet a few brave game publishers persisted and continue to persist in developing motion control games for the Xbox One and Kinect that can provide a great workout. The leader of the pack is Virtual Air Guitar, who continue to pump out fantastic games that are fun and great exercise. Ubisoft is a perennial player in this space too. The hype around exergaming and using video games for exercise seems to have died down since it peaked around 2011 with the Wii, but ironically for those of us who hung on, we get to enjoy some of the very best video games you can work out with. Here’s my list in order of two things: how much of a workout do you get, and is the game so fun to play that you practically forget you’re getting a workout? Kung Fu for Kinect is far and away the best Kinect fitness game there is, and could very be the best fitness game ever to date. The game developer Virtual Air Guitar came up with the brilliant idea of putting your actual video image into a game, where you punch, kick, and jump to destroy hoards of enemies rushing at you from all sides. The simple comic book-inspired graphics are beautiful and the action is quick and instantly responsive. It is in many ways the perfect exergame–one where you are so immersed in the game and having so much fun playing that you hardly realize that you’re also getting an intense cardio workout. Check out the full review here. Shape Up is Ubisoft’s entry into the fitness game genre, and it’s a good one. There is a large variety of different games you can play, and in the course of playing these games, you can get a variety of different workouts. The “games” are mostly a bit contrived in that it seems like they started with the exercises (punching, core twists, pushups, squatting) and then came up with a game around it. But the games are pretty well done, and some are even quite brilliant. As with Kung Fu for Kinect your actual video image is used throughout the game, which gives it an extra level of immersion. See the review for Shape Up. Picture doing some classic aerobics classes. Punch, punch, one-two, crunch, crunch, one-two, jump, jump, one-two and so on. It’s a great way to get your cardio going–assuming you can stay awake. Now picture making the same motions as you punch and swipe blocks in front of you, crunch to duck out of the way of blocks coming at you, and jumping over those blocks. Suddenly a boring aerobics workout becomes a pretty exciting game. That’s Beatsplosion. Trying to navigate a 2D screen using 3D motions can be frustrating at times, but once you acclimate yourself it can be a lot of fun. Read the full review for Beatsplosion here. Xbox Fitness was Microsoft’s push into using the Kinect for exercise. Their approach wasn’t to build new titles that used the Kinect, but rather to resell old exercise and workout videos and “modernize” them by using the Kinect (doing everything from tracking how accurate your movements are to measuring your pulse rate using only the camera focusing on your skin). While Xbox Fitness undoubtedly provides the best workout of any title if you choose your workout videos well, I can’t really classify it as an “exercise game” as much as an application or utility that happens to use the Kinect. Read the detailed review for Xbox Fitness. A perennial title on all my top ten lists across multiple platforms, Just Dance 2016 wins the prize of being the best game to play with a friend or group of friends. The workout isn’t as intense, but the game makes up for it by being wildly addictive, whether you’re dancing along and trying to master the moves or dancing with a friend and having fun with the choreography. Ubisoft will keep churning these out as long as people keep playing it. The original Dance Central was one of the first games to come out for the original Kinect, and it was touted by some as a “Just Dance killer”, in that while Just Dance approximated “real dance moves” in getting you to wag your arms or legs, Dance Central taught you actual dance moves down to the fraction of an inch of how your hands, arms, legs, and feet were positioned. If you check out some YouTube split-screen videos you’ll see that people who practice using Dance Central actually look like pretty awesome. Unfortunately, as in real life, perfecting moves takes a ton of practice and isn’t the most fun in the world, although you will get a lot of exercise trying. While Dance Central 1 and 2 warranted full boxed versions, Dance Central Spotlight is available as a download-only, which points to the diminishing appeal of the game, even with Kinect 2.0. Read the full review for Dance Central Spotlight. Zumba Fitness World Party for Xbox One was one of the first games released when the new Xbox One came out. It’s largely a port of the same game for the Xbox 360, with identical gameplay, and some improvement in graphics and tracking thanks to the advanced features of the Xbox One and Kinect 2.0. Like Dance Central and Just dance, you’re dancing along to an on-screen dancer–unlike those two games the image is a real person, not an avatar, and the dance moves are focused on fitness as much as they are on style. It helps if you’re already an avid Zumba fan, as it’ll be easier for you to overlook the awkward menu controls and lack of instruction and just jump into the fun of the game. This is pretty much the same game you know and love on your iPhone or Andoid, with one key difference–instead of using your finger to chop fruit that’s flying at you you’re using your actual arms. The result seems a bit silly ar first, but after about 3 or 4 addictive rounds you start to realize that you’re breaking a sweat. Graphics are much improved over pretty much any version out there–you can almost taste the succulence of the colorful cartoon fruit, and it’s satisfying to see those colors plastered all over the wall as you karate chop them. Cardio workout: 4 of 5. Commander Cherry’s Puzzled Journey is to yoga as Beatsplosion is to aerobics. In other words, it’s a way to get you to do it without necessarily knowing you’re doing it. In the case of Commander Cherry, you “strike a pose” using your entire body. A photo of your body becomes a “platform” for the character in the game to walk across. It’s not “real” yoga per se, but it certainly feels like it as you need to move your body and balance in all kinds of ways you never did before. A bit of a disappointment after the excellent Kinect Sports titles for the Xbox 360, it’s still fun to pop Kinect Sports Rivals in for a diversion every now and again for the few games that get you moving.

The 6 Best Kinect Fitness Games. Play Your Way To Health. This list of the best Kinect fitness games will help you choose the right game to help you get in shape and stay fit! If you haven't had a chance to try out the Kinect yet, you'll be surprised how suited it is to helping you exercise. And if you own a Kinect, you'll want to know the best games to maximize your workout productivity. After all, there's no point in using the Kinect to get fit unless you find a fitness game that's suited to your own abilities, interests, and needs! Update: Zumba has shimmied its way past EA Sports! Honorable Mentions. Jillian Michaels Fitness Adventure: This recent entry into the Kinect workout genre has you working on your core while exploring a variety of fun on-screen environments. Guess Jillian decided not to stick with the Biggest Loser franchise this time around. Zumba Fitness Core: Love Zumba? Want to focus on strengthening your core? Check out the latest Zumba Kinect game, which features new ways to tap into the dance-inspired craze. Dance Central 3: Trey says in the comments below, "Dance Central 2 works better for me than anything. Sure, I feel like a goober half the time, but those dances on hard are truly a cardio blast." Although it's not strictly a Kinect fitness game, it does provide a great workout. It's also been voted the second best Kinect game out of all the titles available in the comments. #6: The Biggest Loser Ultimate Workout. The Biggest Loser Ultimate Workout for the Kinect uses the star power of trainers such as Jillian Michaels and Bob Harper to motivate you in your exercising routines. Motion controls and voice recognition work well. The activities are varied and interesting, and it tracks your measurements over time. Some users like that this game focuses more on the training aspect than Your Shape Fitness , its main competitor. #5: EA Sports Active 2. EA Sports Active 2 is the only fitness game that currently comes with a heart rate monitor. The results of the monitor display in-game on your screen, so that you can make sure that you're staying within your target range. Other than that, it's pretty similar to Your Shape Fitness (see below for more information). It's more focused on getting in shape than having fun, whatever the previews and trailers try to tell you. #4: Zumba Fitness Rush - Groove Yourself To Health. This game brings Zumba, the new exercise class dance craze, into the comfort of your own living room. You can use this great Kinect workout game without anyone else having to see you get good at the moves first! Many people have gotten fit using Zumba over the years since it was first introduced; it's a great combination of music that gets you pumped and moves that get your heart pumping. They've fixed the motion issues that plagued the original game, and this remake has received excellent reviews on Amazon and elsewhere. #3: UFC Personal Trainer - Kick and Punch Your Way to Health. If you're not the type of person who gets into dancing or aerobics, then perhaps UFC Personal Trainer is for you. Drawing from a variety of MMA-inspired moves from diverse disciplines, and featuring UFC fighting personalities, this game definitely stands out from the Kinect fitness game crowd. Just make sure that you're not too close to the TV when you do your moves! #2: Nike+ Kinect Training - A New Way to Feel the Burn. Nike has always been a brand associated with athletic excellence, and their newest foray into motion-controlled gaming is no exception. Progress in the game results in real-world rewards in the form of NikeFuel points. There's a strong focus on becoming part of the community, and you can get messages from Nike athletes and trainers to keep you on track. If you want more outside support and accountability in your at-home fitness regimen, this game is for you. And the #1 Best Kinect Fitness Game Is. #1: Your Shape Fitness Evolved - 2012. If you liked Your Shape Fitness Evolved , then you're sure to like this version for 2012. New activities will include "zen classes," Latin dancing, boot camp, and a feature called "Run the World" that lets you run in different environments without leaving the comfort of your home. Still to be seen is whether the upgraded interactivity and graphics are worth the price tag if you already own the original game. What Is The Best Kinect Fitness Game? - Vote Here!

I can see why people enjoy these fitness games. Looks like they work. Peter Messerschmidt 4 years ago from Port Townsend, WA, USA. Some very useful information here! I've HEARD about these fitness games, but have never actually tried them. but it sounds like a winner, especially for those of us who really hate going to a gym. Great recommendation. I like EA Sports Active 2 with the heart monitor. Way to go man. I am really having fun with Zumba Fitness! Great lens! Good suggestions. The Kinect Fitness videos are such a great way of getting fit with a trainer, without the huge cost of gym fees. Some people will like them, others of course won't. I think they are great. This is a terrific list of Kinect fitness games. It has an excellent choice to choose from and thanks for sharing. emmaklarkins 5 years ago. @jonijones: Can't go wrong with making exercise fun! BenJacklin LM 5 years ago. Great lens for everyone looking to shed a few pounds this new year! Fun and exercise, sound the best for me!! emmaklarkins 5 years ago. @anonymous: The game certainly has mixed reviews. You might prefer Kung Fu High Impact, which has much better motion tracking. That MMA game sucks so hard. I can't believe it's second place! It's practically not a game, just a guided video. Motion detection is so bad that you have to punch twice or thrice for the game to detect you thrown a punch. It doesn't even distinguish if you throw a punch or an elbow; just that "something" from your left moved to the right. For example, if you have to throw a right jab and a left elbow strike you might as well sissy slap with both hands and the game detects you did it right. And those repetitive comments from the trainers make the whole experience artificial. I agree that Fitness Evolved is the best the kinect has to offer in the Fitness department. emmaklarkins 5 years ago. @avigarret: Thanks! It certainly is a great way to get exercise without really noticing :) Great recommendations, a very creative and fun way to lose weight. Thanks for the great ideas! Some great titles. emmaklarkins 5 years ago. @healthyidea: Thanks for the heads up, I'll add them to the list! Kiwigirl 5 years ago from Franklin. These are a little out of date there is now Zumba Core and Nike + Kinect training, they make it into my top 5. Question for anyone that uses these, do they really work, or are they just a bit of fun? I don't have akinect but love fitness but love movement games. These titles sound fun. Nice. Definitely agree about Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2012 being the best. I have a huge stack of Kinect games. Yeah, the kids love Kinectimals, but I primarily use the Kinect for a workout. Out of all, I use Your Shape 2012 the most. With the wide variety of workouts available for everything from warm ups to strength training targeted to specific body regions, you can get the results desired. And does it ever put the burn on. emmaklarkins 5 years ago. @MrMojo01: Glad you liked it! emmaklarkins 5 years ago. very interesting lens. Nice lens. I have tried a few of these and I will have to check out the others. emmaklarkins 5 years ago. @behealthycoupon1: The Kinect is great at getting people to engage in regular physical activity, which is something that most people don't get enough of! You can always move to more intense games, or even graduate to non-Kinect activities. Sometimes it just takes that one little push to get "up off the couch" :) behealthycoupon1 5 years ago. I'm still no the fence if I want to get a Kinect. I guess it would more so for my family because it's something that mom could do. The only issue is I think you have to do a lot of working out for it to actually start making a difference in your health. The movements in most of the games are pretty slow and not enough of it. emmaklarkins 5 years ago. @StewartClan: Yeah, boyfriends/husbands often want one of those! If you like dancing with the Wii, you'll LOVE Dance Central! Well, I am a Wii person, but my husband wants to get an xbox and you are making it look pretty compelling. I love all the dance games for the wii and I am sure that I would love some of these fitness dvds. Thanks for a great lens, I liked it very much. These are awesome for losing weight and getting in shape because they free a person from the need to pay a gym or trainer to start doing it. Great variety of games from which to choose. Nice lens. rongreenwood 5 years ago. I love this game. I play it everyday with my son,Very entertaining, interesting, and fun too. emmaklarkins 5 years ago. @anonymous: That's a good point. I might add it to the list, but for the time being, anyone visiting this site should know that Dance Central 2 is a great game that provides a great workout! Dance Central 2 Works better for me that anything. Sure, I feel like a goober half the time, but those dances on hard are truly a cardio blast. Great collection, well done! I had no idea what this was until I watched the video you have here. Just cruising around squidoo to see what people are doing and I'm glad I found this. I need something just like this. Now I have to see about getting the Kinect, right? emmaklarkins 5 years ago. @giltotherescue: Well, there are a few reasons that Zumba isn't #1. For example, the only exercises you can do are Zumba-based, so if you're not already a Zumba fan, you won't be into this game. Also, unless you already have a decent amount of Zumba experienced, it is difficult to get the moves "just right." I think perhaps Zumba advertises so much because it isn't #1 yet, and they want it to be :) Gil Hildebrand 5 years ago from New Orleans, LA. Just curious where there was a vote for the games? Given the amount of TV advertising, I would have expected Zumba to be #1. I love Dance Central 2, a fun game and a great work out! The staple genre and easiest selling point for the Kinect. A great way to get the, "hardcore," gamer off the couch while still feeding the gaming addiction, haha. cneely294587 6 years ago. Kinect Sports is a great workout. CruiseReady 6 years ago from East Central Florida. I would love to get my husband motivated to do some of these Kinect Fitness Games. These are some great Kinect games to help get in shape with. I'm thinking about picking up one or two myself to kick some weight off for the new year. These are some of the best kinect games for making that happen, too. Thanks! Great lens! Thumbs up! I've been strongly considering trying out Your Shape Evolved. seems like a fun way to get some exercise in! jadehorseshoe 6 years ago. Very Useful Lens! @anonymous: You're missing out if you don't have a Kinect yet. I used to be pretty lazy, but now I actually work out. Heard_Zazzle 6 years ago. Anything that gets folks moving is a good thing. I've heard Zumba is really fun. emmaklarkins 6 years ago. @anonymous: They're a blast! You should definitely consider getting a Kinect if you have an Xbox. Don't have a Kinect but as KM wrote - these games do look fun. mockingbird999 6 years ago. I haven't tried any of these yet, but they look like they'd be fun. Copyright © 2018 HubPages Inc. and respective owners.

The cream of the crop. In case you missed it, Monster Hunter World is pretty popular right now. It\s sold well, and is good, but it's best Xbox One games good? Well, not quite. There's been some online problems on Xbox One and while it's good, it's not really a hall of fame job. It was a similar story with the recent Vanishing of Ethan Carter, an atmospheric supernatural murder mystery that, like Monster Hunter World, is highly recommended. However, when you've only 25 places to fill they've got to go to the best of the best. That means things like Assassin's Creed Origins and Wolfenstein 2 most recently. They're also two Xbox One X Enhanced games so if you have a 4K TV and an X, then those are great games to show everything off. In terms of upcoming Xbox One games, Coming up soon we'll have Monster Hunter World on Jan 26, and Far Cry 5 on March 27, along with this little selection over the next couple of months. Mar 13 - The Crew 2. Mar 23 - A Way Out. 'Spring' - State of Decay 2. 'Spring - Crackdown 3. Only time will tell if any of those will make it into the 25 best Xbox One games list. For the meantime, though the best Xbox One games is still full of classics like Fallout 4 , Cuphead , Titanfall 2 , Minecraft and Gears of War 4 . If it's an essential Xbox One title it's here, and as there's only 25 places competition only the best get a look in. Every time something new comes alone we review it, appraise it and then, if it's good enough, it might be added here. 25. Final Fantasy 15. The Final Fantasy name isn't exactly synonymous with Microsoft's console, but we're happy just the same as Final Fantasy 15 is easily one of the best RPGs of the year. It blends the vast open-worlds of Western RPGs with Final Fantasy's hallmark over-the-top anime absurdity to great effect, crafting a world based on the highways and byways of Middle America while filling that world with ferocious monsters, massive crystals, and powerful magic. There are times when Final Fantasy 15 feels like an idiosyncratic mishmash of ideas, but when you throw everything together - the strange world, the thrilling, real-time combat, the lovable characters who stick with you for your entire journey - it becomes something much greater than the sum of its parts. It becomes one of the best Final Fantasy games in ages; a game well worth the wait. 24. Cuphead. After delays that led to maybe just a touch of apathy, Cuphead is here and has instantly become one of the best shooters all time (according to our review). While the presentation is crafted beautifully from 1930 cartoon art - things like Betty Boop shorts and Disney's Silly Symphonies - this takes gameplay cues from sources like Mega Man, Contra, Metal Slug, and Gunstar Heroes. The levels aren’t huge but it’s the challenge, not the size that matters here as you dodge bullets and learn enemy patterns. Everything tests your skills and reactions in a range of interesting ways and, most importantly, are a joy to beat. 23. Halo: Master Chief Collection. *braces for complaints* Yes, we are well aware of the problems that plagued this particular entry, but now that it works, there's no doubting the craftsmanship here. Bungie's genius meets 343's love in a package that truly does justice to an industry-shaking legacy. Buffed-up, revarnished and back in the shop window, The Master Chief Collection leaves us to wonder if Halo always looked so lovely. And you know what? It more or less did. Is that mug a Mimic? How about that chair? Or even that corpse. There's nothing quite like exploring Talos-1, just waiting for its terrifying alien predators to appear when you least expect it before splatting them senseless with a wrench. But that's only the beginning of the joys of Prey. Before long, you're expertly juggling Neuromods, experimenting with new abilities and attempting to stay out of sight of horrific Typhons and the frankly intimidating Nightmare. Prey requires to explore every inch of its space station, heading into tunnels when you'd rather go the other way and hunting down corpses of those who came before. Add in the twisting narrative that gradually unravels before you and this is an instant addition to our best Xbox One games list. Just remember your GLOO gun. You'll need it. 21. Rainbow Six Siege. The first few minutes of a Rainbow Six: Siege match feel more like a slasher film than an all-guns-blazing FPS. The pitter-patter of combat booted feet sounds through the roof. Defenders erect Home Alone defences. Was that the whine of a rappel buckle? It's a sense of tension that beats most horror games. And once all hell does break loose, you're suddenly thrown into the midst of deep, strategical, brutally unforgiving warfare. Ripe with tactical options and built for "one more go" appeal, this is by far Xbox One’s smartest multiplayer shooter. 20. Halo 5: Guardians. Halo's always been a balance of campaign with multiplayer, but this entry's a tad lopsided. The story of Locke chasing Chief isn't quite the era-defining moment we were hoping for but, luckily, it's the series-best multiplayer that gets our visors misty. Halo 5: Guardians offers so very much to prospective online warmongers. Arena is a return to the Halo of old, tense cerebral skirmishes that are an oasis of sanity in a sea of crude shooters. If you fancy some madness, then you have Warzone - mega-battles powered by a desperately addictive card-collecting system. And more's being added - 343 just reintroduced Big Team Battles and a new version of classic map, Blood Gulch for free. We're home. 19. Ori and the Blind Forest. Imagine a lavish, beautiful storybook world… that slams shut on your stupid, bleeding fingers for seven brutal hours. This is Ori and the Blind Forest, the result of Microsoft handing a group of retro fanatics enough money (and freedom) to make a worthy successor to the platformers of old. Not only is this a pitch-perfect update to the formula set up by Metroid and Castlevania, combining mechanical satisfaction with tear-jerking narrative sequences, it's also quite probably the best-looking 2D game of all time. So yeah, it's pretty special. 18. Middle-earth: Shadow of War. With a bigger, richer world and more tightly honed mechanics Shadow of War is a great sequel - the combat is more immediate and satisfying, the environments more detailed varied, and everything combines beautifully. It's also one of the best Xbox One X enhanced games if you want to show off all that power. This is a big game though - seriously, seriously huge. 15 hours or so will finish the prologue; another 25 odd will unlock the rest of the map, so don't pick this up for a quick fling - you need to commit. The series' nemesis system that defines the series has had expanded to create a twisting narrative of encounters, defeats and victories as you meet and battle various orcs - yours and their progress defined by who wins the fight. This time it's also been expanded to include castles you can storm, building and training an army up to the task. Even if you don't like Lord of the Rings, it's a massive and exciting open world to explore. 17. FIFA 18. It's another step on for FIFA 18 this year, with some great tweaks to the action: taking a shot from a distance now has more impact, crosses are improved with a genuine whip added to the ball. AI's been improved as well with far more individual character and personality to different star's playing styles and, while lower league team don't feels quite as good, teams do have different feeling tactics when you play them. The continuation of the single player Journey also continues to impress with an exciting and even occasionally touching campaign as you follow his career. It's this mode that gives FIFA 18 the edge over PES this year as it's leagues ahead of any comparable mode you might find in similar games. And, finally, the monster that is FIFA Ultimate Team is improved by Squad Battles which let you progress better without spending real money. A welcome addition if chasing cards and coins is big part of your life. 16. Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus. Wolfenstein: The New Order is one of the most unique, brutal, brave, hilarious, and intelligent shooters of the generation so far. MachineGames' sequel, The New Colossus, confidently doubles down on all of that. Moving BJ Blazkowicz's very personal war further into the alternative-universe '60s, and transposing it to an America under Nazi rule, The New Colossus is uncompromisingly relevant. It's a smart, sensitive, and emotive discussion of callousness, prejudice, and cruelty, that nevertheless knows how to be fun at all times. A biting portrait of human failures and social horrors, that does its biting with big robot teeth and hatchet blades. It's a game that exemplifies heart and brains throughout, but never with more unremitting flair than when it comes to the noble art of tearing Nazis to shreds with bloody and balletic style. 15. Battlefield 1. We were worried DICE had set themselves up for a fall with a WW1 shooter, when Battlefield 1 was announced. Taking on one of the most bloody and tragic conflicts in human history isn't typically the best starting point for a fun game. But the anthology format is a masterstroke, using different perspectives to capture the sensational action of conflict, while sensitively showing the human cost of war. The story of the British chauffeur turned tank driver alone is more emotionally nuanced than anything we've seen from Battlefield before. But this isn't some weepy drama – it's a WW1 epic, an overwhelming shooter like nothing else on Xbox One, with 64 player multiplayer mode to keep you coming back. It's a gamble that paid off. Just be careful how you Tweet about it next time, OK EA? 14. Rocket League. Nobody expected this to be quite such an explosive success but then think objectively and put the words ‘cars’ and ‘football’ together and suddenly it all makes beautifully insane sense. Both local and online modes for its petrol fuelled madness makes Rocket League multiplayer gold. Slews of DLC - Back To The Future’s DeLorean anyone - since release and now a new Xbox One/PC multiplayer option means it’s now bigger and better than ever, and there’s no better time to put your hand on your wallet and foot on the gas. Make it one of your life… goals. 13. Rise of the Tomb Raider. Don’t be fooled by its frostbitten landscapes; this is the kind of barn-burning action-adventure that, until recently, only (ahem) other consoles used to get. Pivoting effortlessly from digital sightseeing to cinematic survival, then into stealth before exploding into brutal action, this is truly blockbuster stuff - appropriate for one of gaming's biggest icons. Amidst a gaming landscape packed with open worlds that sap full weeks of your life away, that Rise of the Tomb Raider packs all its thrills into a dizzying ten hours isn't just welcome, it's an accomplishment - this is non-stop fun. Except when Lara's murdered by your fumbling fingers. That's not so nice. 12. Resident Evil 7: Biohazard. Let's face it. Resident Evil had gone a bit like a foot left out of the fridge too long. A bit, well, off . After the glorious heady heights of Resi 4 defining the third person shooter as we know it, it all got a bit mediocre. Well 2017 is the year Resi got its groove back and you should be very afraid. Turning the franchise on its head, Resident Evil 7 is a first person survival terror-fest that sees you sneaking through a decrepit Louisiana mansion hunting for your missing wife. Texas Chainsaw Massacre style fiends? Check. Horrific body horror? Check that too. Add in a story that'll leave you forgetting to breathe for a little too long and Resident Evil 7 manages to be an exhilarating rollercoaster ride that reinvents the franchise. Sure you'll recognise those green herbs but this is a new brand of horror that just demands you creep through its hallways even if it feels like you should run in the opposite direction. 11. Forza Motorsport 7. Improved AI, collisions, handling - what Forza Motorsport 7 gets right reads like a list of everything a racing game should do perfectly. Cars all feel great to control, giving you the confidence you need to push the handling to its limits - drifting on cue, or hugging the rails when you need dig the tires in. In fact, throughout, this a game that tweaks and adjusts everything the previous installment got wrong. It’s all about delivering the best player experience and creating a game that’s both realistic and fun. Some of the progression is a little demanding, with numerous barriers to surmount as you collect cars and win events, but there’s nothing that really take the shine of one the greatest racers currently available. 10. Gears of War 4. It was during Act Four, when the storm was raging, bullets were flying from all sides, blood was gushing all over us as we chainsawed close-up enemies and then tried to aim at those sniping us from afar, when suddenly the music rose at the perfect moment. It was as if God himself was singing 'I'm really sorry for Gears of War: Judgment'. Apology accepted. A bloodbath with real brains, Gears of War 4 adds an army of new monsters, each demanding fresh tactics to dispatch and bringing new ideas to how we approach combat. It means the first sequel since Gears 2 that can surprise newcomers without sacrificing the excellent cover-shooting that made the series famous. Bloody essential. 9. Titanfall 2. Any FPS that lets you run along walls and then double jump into a giant mechanical Titan instantly has our attention. Titanfall 2 does that and so much more. “But where's our single-player?” we moaned, when the first Titanfall came to Xbox in 2014. “Fine!” retorted Respawn. “How about for this sequel, we tell the story of a pilot and his Titan? One where you steadily unlock Titan weapons that look powerful enough to burn the universe in half? How about a stage wherein you can travel through time at the touch of a button? How about several hours of dizzyingly paced, ideas-stuffed action that makes every shooter since we made Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare look lazy?” Well that certainly shut us up. Throw in Bounty Hunt, a capitalist nightmare of an essential multiplayer mode, and we promise never to accuse Respawn of laziness again. 8. Overwatch. Well if Valve aren't going to bother making Team Fortress 3, we'll have Blizzard do it instead. The World of Warcraft studio had never made a shooter before, so it makes no sense at all that Overwatch is one of the best multiplayer FPS' ever. A ridiculously varied cast of colourful heroes, each with powers that should logically break the game (Tracer can travel back through time for crying out loud!) Yet it all checks and balances, letting us fire bows and arrows, sky dragons, walls of ice and whip chains through the air for hours and hours without ever feeling like its cheaty or unfair. Months later, and still the only flaw we can find is Tracer's horrid cockney accent. By this logic, if Blizzard ever offer to make us dinner, expect world hunger to be eradicated within the hour. 7. Destiny 2. After the endless, life absorbing life sink of the original game what could Destiny 2 possibly do to beat it? The answer is actually obvious: more of the same, only richer, more accessible and. just. more Destiny. The sequel takes nearly every element of the space travelling, gun collecting, number raising MMO and polishes it to a fine sheen. You can see almost every area where Bungie learned from the last game, making the areas you explore richer with things to do, adding depth to both the systems that progress your character, and hte activities you take on to do so. Few games mix combat, multiplayer and character progressions so well and it's an addictive draw as a result. 6. Grand Theft Auto 5. Gaming's biggest blockbuster deserves its place at the head of the list. GTA 5 was already an excellent, brutal, beautiful open-world game, and is made even more so on Xbox One with a visual tidy-up, a glut of new content and the addition of first-person pedestrian-beating. With the addition of online Heists to make its online component even more enticing, Rockstar edges closer to making a game world so vast and varied that you could start to do away with anything else. Which, come to think of it, was probably the plan all along. 5. Minecraft. As simple or as complex as you want it to be, Minecraft is the perfect example of a game that lives up to the hype. Whether you just fancy pottering around in creative mode, or jumping into survival to take on various blocky nasties in your quest for the End, Mojang's masterpiece always feels perfectly yours and unique. This is a world worth just wandering in for eternity. Plus, the constant evolution with new packs, new textures and gameplay tweaks means that Minecraft is always moving forward. If you thought it was just about stacking up green blocks, it's time to catch up. 4. Assassin's Creed Origins. Assassin's Creed Origins is the long awaited reboot the series has needed. And ye gods, is it ever exactly what we hoped for. It's also a flagship Xbox One X Enhanced game so a great way to show off your new console. Remodelling Assassin's Creed into a true open-world RPG, full of creative stabbing, character stats, and malleable gameplay (What is best in life, Conan?), the ancient Egyptian adventure is a vast, sprawling, actual, bona fide country of a game, packing with detail, side-quests, and secrets to tackle your own way, at any time you want. With the overhauled combat now fuelled by a fully customisable gear system (Want twin daggers that put people to sleep, and a poisonous shield? Or a sword that buffs your health, and a bow with controllable arrows? You can have all of these things), any hint of the old series’ weary gameplay is long gone. Packed with wit, warmth, and a staggering scale of options, it's really rather fitting that the game that goes back to the beginning of the story is also the one that gives Assassin's Creed a fresh start. 3. Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain. If we didn't know better (or should that be worse?), we'd say Konami took the Hideo Kojima brand off of his last stab at MGS 5: The Phantom Pain because it feels quite so different to his previous efforts. Yes, it's packed with the off-kilter jokes, mechanical ingenuity and conspiracy theories so wild they're seemingly drawn from the darkest of the internet's depths - but at it's core, this is a very different kind of Hideo Kojima game. 2. Fallout 4. We sort of knew what we were getting. It's big, it's buggy, it's Bethesda. Fallout 4 is a natural evolution, bringing with it the often aimless exploration, gentle humour and moral greyitude of the last two instalments, while propping it all up with a new-gen veneer. They might not be enormous shifts, but main character voice acting, better gunplay and (shock) not having to look inside crates to loot them all make this a streamlined version of a now-classic formula. Frame rate dips and occasionally horrifying glitches rear their heads as usual, but it's difficult to feel too bad when there's simply so much going on. Once again, Bethesda has crammed several games' worth of joyously inconsequential stuff in here, resulting in one of the most compulsive, moreish games of this generation. Get stuck in, and you won't emerge for weeks. 1. Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. One of the most immersive RPGs ever made - a standout, mutable storyline, endlessly satisfying detective-cum-hitman Contracts, and side quests deeper than many games' main campaigns. The Witcher 3's world is one of the few game spaces to deserve that title - full of political intrigue, folklore and gross beasts to slice into ribbons. And all of that's failing to mention CD Projekt RED's raft of free DLC, and a couple of expansion packs - the first of which, Hearts of Stone, is responsible for this shooting up to the highest reaches of this list. Beautiful, rewarding and essential, this is a game we'll remember for years and years to come. Some online stores give us a small cut if you buy something through one of our links.
