Titanfall
A true masterpiece that just came out a few years too early. The state of Xbox one was miserable and one of its exclusive brothers (Killer Instinct) ironically used the model this game should have also used, F2P with seasons. In 2014 you can not launch a multiplayer only game with no skins or reason to grind away for 60 dollars. If this game came out during Covid, it is a smash hit. Apex Legends is proof of that.
LOVE the pvp campaign. Will probably never see it again but the idea of weaving in the story and having real players as the enemy faction was and IS genius. And the mix of call of duty gameplay with jetpacks and Titans as ultimates...man I wish this game lasted forever

The Last of Us Part II
Still the most puzzling form of art I've ever come across in terms of how I feel about it. One of the best game engines I've ever seen in terms of animations within moving around the environment. Stellar graphics. Top notch gameplay. BAFFLING decision making from characters and well, writers. And then 10 hours in they just....WHAT IS THIS GAME

The Last of Us
I can't believe this game came out over 10 years ago. Everyone and well rightfully so, goes straight to the story and characters of the Last of Us but I remember having a blast just killing other asshole survivors and zombies. Not much more to be said about this game that no one else has said already.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice
I've put two separate 60 hour weeks 5 years apart into this game. And by the end of both weeks, I was left thinking a game will not ever have a better gameplay system.
I am no FromSoft fanboy as I cannot stand games where dodging is the preferred method of avoiding damage, much prefer deflecting or parrying. Because of Sekiro I have gotten into other parry focused games like Fallen Order, Sifu and Stellar Blade but they still don't hold a candle in terms of a simple 1 vs 1 fight between two samurai with swords.
Like Celeste, the game does a near perfect job of teaching you how to play without making it too frustrating. And learning how to play this instrument is one of the best decisions I've made. (aside from spending 2020 new years in my room for 16 hrs straight including 8 of which I died to Ishiin)

Gears of War 2
It just dawned on me that this is one of the very first highly anticipated blockbuster sequels that just simply did not function. The first game was such a hit and they "threw in" in the pvp in the "last minute". So with resources and time investment you would think they would hit out of the park on the next one? No, and I'm not even sure if they made it to the batters box in fact.
A complete abomination of an experience from top to bottom, I have no positive memories of the co op campaign, horde mode, or multiplayer.
Oh and I just remember I got red rings going for all of the achievements after leaving my 360 on boosting wingman matches vs the cpu.

Destiny
Ah Destiny. The game that was supposed to be fun for a weeks before the Master Chief Collection released. I'm surprised I played as long as I did. A complete and utter mess balance wise at all times. Nothing felt fair. Blink, shotguns, sniper rifles that could randomly (literally) 1 tap you and even through walls, fusion rifles, horrid netcode that caused the stupidest kill trades, abysmal mini map and just so much more I don't even want to remember. And that's all just the PvP.
Peter Dinklage was so bad they fired him and had to completely re-record all of his voice over work.
I don't think I ever did a raid with all 6 people in the same voice chat. And I did them 3+ times a week for just over a year.
