Your top 5 games of this generation so far

Okay, so now that we're well and truly in the thick of the eighth generation of consoles (in fact, Nintendo are gearing up to launch into the 9th already), I figured we've had a fair amount of some great games this generation. Granted, it hasn't completely taken off yet, but this looks to be a great year with some excellent titles coming out almost every month, so things are starting to look up.

My question to you is, what are your top 5 games of this generation so far? Handhelds are also included, I guess.

Here are mine:

1. The Witcher 3

2. Metal Gear Solid 5

3. Fire Emblem: Awakening

4. Persona 4 Golden

5. Mario Kart 7

I expect this list to change drastically once this year is through.

P4G is number one but I can't list rerelease(remake is okay) because that's unfair.

1. Persona 4 Golden
2. Smash 4 Wii U
3. MGSV PS4
4. Fire Emblem Awakening 3DS
5. Bloodborne PS4
6. Pokémon ORAS 3DS
7. Until Dawn PS4
8. Tales of Zestiria PS4
9. Mario Kart 8 Wii U
10. The Witcher 3 PS4

Bump everything down a slot once Persona 5 comes out... or two with Fire Emblem Fates.

Well, I figured P4G has enough exclusive content native to itself to warrant a place.

@khoofia_pika: I guess your right. Let me redo my list.

Pillars of Eternity

Fallout 4

XCOM 2

Wasteland 2

Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin

1. Witcher 3

Not in order

Witcher 3

Bloodborne

Mario Kart 8

MGS PP

Super Mario 3D World

Divinity OS

First person shooters, and the PS Vita.

You can mail me the check.

Those three are not current generation games- hell, Dragon's Dogma barely is, for that matter.

Not a fan of much new gen games from what i've played so far lol. Only Bloodborne , Dark Souls 3 , FF XV, Persona V , Doom, Mass Effect Andromeda looks appealing to me Heh. I play the above mentioned games most and much always lol so included them only :P

currently?

1. Tokyo Xanadu
2. Dragon Quest VIII 3DS
3. Yakuza Zero
4. Dragon Quest Builders
5. Tales of Zestiria

Hmmm......

This gen has been so mediocre except for BB which I would give an 8/10 and the Witcher 3 which I would give the same score. I only own a PS4 but if I owned a PC (XCOM2) and Wii-U I'm sure my opinion of this gen would be a little higher.

• The Witcher 3
• Shadow of Mordor
• Fallout 4
• GTA V (Kinda cheating, as it is a rerelease but whatever. This is my list)
• Destiny (??? I guess)

1. Bayonetta 2

Rocket League, Bloodborne, Phantom Pain, ... Splatoon?

I'm sure you can list out five games lol

1. Rodea the Sky Soldier
2. Azure Striker Gunvolt
3. Freedom Planet
4. A Link Between Worlds
5. Crimzon Clover: World Ignition

1. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between World's
2. Bayonetta 2
3. Fire Emblem Awakening
4. Rocket League
5. MGSV (haven't finished it yet)

Correct me if I am wrong, but the version of Rodea that you like is the Wii one, yes?

1. Mortal Kombat X( I love fighting games and Mortal Kombat in general.)

2. Gears of War UE(Gears is the only reason I own a XB1, so of course it would be high.)

3. Ori and The Blind Forest(beautiful game and intense game play.)

4. GTAV(It's just fun.)

5. Pillars of Eternity.

It's crazy how different my list is from others. Years ago I would have loved TW3 and MGSV, now I feel meh about it all.

Yep, the only thing the Wii U and 3DS versions have going for them is their box art. Rodea came out in November though, so I'm counting it as a part of gen 8.

Techno's top 5 without Fire Emblem:

1. Splatoon
2. Invisible Inc.
3. Shadowrun: Dragonfall (I'll make time for Hong Kong one day...)
4. Trails in the Sky FC (And make time for SC...)
5. Atelier Rorona Plus

Resident Evil Revelations 2

Life is Strange

Driveclub

Destiny

ZombiU

In that order, I guess.

Right, you're using timeframe as your basis, then. Fair enough.

Bayonetta 2

Tecmo Deception: Nightmare Princess
