GamesBeat reporter Jeff Grubb’s top 10 games of 2016

I thought this was the year that new technologies like virtual reality would shock me with new kinds of games, but that didn’t really happen. Sure, I found a handful of VR games delightful, but it was the familiar franchises and publishers that truly surprised me.

Video games were great in 2016. I shifted a lot of my time to the PC even as I found reasons to boot up both my Xbox One and PlayStation 4. The only real disappointment is that for the first time in a long time (maybe ever), I don’t have a single Nintendo release in my top 10. Hopefully Switch will rectify that in 2017.
