10 Games Coming Out In 2014 That Probably Aren’t On Your Radar, But Should Be

Destiny! Watch Dogs! Titanfall! That new Alien game! There's a whole bunch of next-gen wonderment heading our way this year and we're all very excited. And why shouldn't we be? Gaming blockbusters, whether you like it or not, are currently the backbone of the industry and are enjoyed by millions of people worldwide for a good reason. But what of those underdogs? The ones without the million dollar marketing budgets with which to shovel their adverts into your eye sockets. Or those fantastic hidden gems that you discovered completely by accident whilst idly cruising around Steam.

5) Oddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty

Abe’s Oddysee was one of my favourite games ever when it first came out. It was so utterly different, so visually striking, that it quickly burrowed its way into my heart – and it was all this three PlayStations ago. So, now, 17 years later (seriously) it’s finally getting the super-HD remake it deserves.

Though perhaps “remake” is an unfair term. Word on the street is that the developers are polishing it up so much, and refining so many little parts for the PS4’s cutting edge technology, that it’s pretty much going to be a brand new game – and I, for one, can’t wait to get my hands on it.

Abe’s grim, personal tale of toiling under industrial capitalists is as relevant today as ever, and telling it through intelligent puzzles and a clever control scheme means I’m all set to drown once more in this murky sea of nostalgia. Oh, and it had a fart button. If they can somehow incorporate that into the new DualShock 4 controller, then I think we can pretty much call Game of the Year early on this.
