My PC went into storage about 9 months ago and I am finally settled back in. Went on deployment for 6 months and then moved across the country. I haven't kept up with anything and I somewhat remember what was coming out, but what are some of the can't miss games from the last 9 months?

Already in the steam cart:

AC Black Flag
AC Rogue
AC Unity (how was this one?)
Far Cry 4

AC Black Flag-Great game
AC Rogue- One of the better stories in the AC series.
AC Unity (how was this one?) -Epic Fail
Far Cry 4- GTA in the jungle.

Well, if you have a pile of Ubisoft games to play on PC, you'll probably end up putting your PC back in storage

But let's see, past nine months. Here are some of the mainstream blockbusters, in no particular order or genre:


Dying Light
Battlefield Hardline
Dragon Age: Inquisition
Evolve
Sims 4
Alien Isolation
H1Z1
COD Advanced Warfare
Dragonball Xenoverse
Civ beyond earth
Borderlands: pre sequel
Tales from the Borderlands
Ryse: Son of Rome
Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor


Just all I can think of. Others can add to the list. But damn, that is a depressing list.

EDIT: I'll add that these are not "can't-miss" games, just major ones that were released. You can put Ryse in the crap pile for sure, though. Middle Earth is worth a play-through, especially since you appear to be a fan of the assassin's creed series. Gameplay is similar, with combat mechanics similar to Arkham series.

Also looking forward to the patches for Total War: Rome II. Thing was buggy as hell when I stopped playing it. It looks like they worked most things out.

I'll add onto Dragon Age. Exceptional game, enough content to warrant multiple play throughs. Worth every penny.

Multiplayer was shockingly fun too.
