The Wii U version of the 4th installment of the Super Smash Brothers series puts over 50 of Nintendo’s All Star, fan favorite characters against one another in a full-on battle/melee/brawl for the first time in High Definition. Veterans and newcomers alike come from all decades of Nintendo’s catalogue, ranging from the Super Mario Brothers to Metroid, Legend of Zelda, Fire Emblem, Star Fox and even Animal Crossing and Xenoblade Chronicles. The game has plenty of extra special challenge and classic arcade modes, detailed stage builders, and online multiplayer modes for both the players who play for fun, and for those who play for the glory. Or you can play locally with anywhere between two and eight players, with controller options from the gamepad to the Wii remote to the classic GameCube controller for the true Smash enthusiasts.

Dragon Age: Inquisition (PS4, Xbox One, PC, PS3, X 360)

Bioware returns to Dragon Age with the third installment in the series and the first since 2009. Inquisition is an open world RPG fantasy game complete with dragons, elves, dwarves and spellcasters, where the player can lead a party of varying races and classes and explore a world as vast as maybe even Skyrim was. Combine with a large, beautifully designed open world with RPG masters at Bioware (the people responsible for Mass Effect and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic), and as a result, it can be expected that players will be able to achieve their own consequential story decisions, character creation and even potential romance. The game supports four player cooperative missions, and nearly 100 hours worth of things to accomplish in the world of Thedas.

Far Cry 4 (PS4, Xbox One, PC, PS3, X 360)
Like Far Cry 3 in 2012, Ubisoft delivers a well received formula of a stunning open world shooter to explore and blow stuff up in, except this time it’s in the Himalayas, and here there be elephants. The game’s story is simple, in that the player is a man returning to his homeland to bring his mother’s ashes to her final resting place when thing suddenly become complicated as you’re thrown into a rebellion trying to control the region of Kyrat. Mountains add verticality to the play style of Far Cry, where, as it was on Rock Island, you create your own path to your destination, making your journey itself the true story.

Grand Theft Auto V (Xbox One, PS4, PC)
What is there to say about GTA? It’s GTA, and GTAV was simultaneously one of the fastest selling and most expensively made games in history. This is the very same game that, if you’re reading this list at all, I’m sure you’ve played, but this time Los Santos is as stunning as Rockstar could possibly make it, performing at optimum resolution and high frame rate on the PS4, Xbox One and the PC.
