If you want some moreР’В detailedР’В thoughts, you can go check out my review from September. IРІР‚в„ўd never felt spoiled by a game until I played Forza Horizon 3. It was also one of the first Xbox One games to take advantage of HDR lighting, which makes it one of the best looking games of the generation. Over the course of twoР’В years, the studio behind Forza Horizon has already launched not one, but two of the best open world racers ever conceived without missing a beat.Р”Р‡orza Horizon 3 is Forza Horizon 2, but bigger, better and set in an even more stunning locale.

2016 simply wouldnРІР‚в„ўt have been the sameР’В without PokР“В©monР’В GO.Р”Р„s far as IРІР‚в„ўm concerned, no one other than Playground Games ever needs to make another open world racing game again. Plus, to cap off what has been an unimaginably successful, record-breaking launch year, the developers are adding new Generation II PokР“В©mon to the game this month to give everyone a reason to log in as they head home for the holidays. But over the past month or so, IРІР‚в„ўve been drawn back in by the improvements and additions Niantic has made to the game, from daily rewards to bulk transfers. Like millions of other trainers, I had filled out most of my PokР“В©dex and didnРІР‚в„ўt feel the urge to capture every gym in my neighborhood. For a few weeks this summer, I couldnРІР‚в„ўt walk to the train without seeing a dozen other commuters - young, old, male, female - swiping at their phones, trying to catch PokР“В©mon on their way to work.Р”Р„dmittedly, I didnРІР‚в„ўt spend much time with PokР“В©monР’В GOР’В once it began to fade from view. In spite of its inevitable fall from smartphone dominance, PokР“В©monР’В GO defined 2016 like no other game.
