Like most gamers, our team at Game Rant has enjoyed many of the games released this year, and looks forward to the games set to release in the next year. Much of that excitement spurs from the impressive trailers that have been released over the last 12 months. To commemorate the best and most notable set of trailers released throughout 2016, here are Game Rant’s Top 10 Video Game Trailers of 2

There may be iconic silent protagonists such as Crash Bandicoot and Gordon Freeman, but these I feel like Fable needs to have some in-depth voice acting for a protagonist this time around. The other adventure games Beginner Guide have all had a silent protagonist who only seems to communicate in emotes. The original game lacked even a scr

The previous games were developed around the time where accessibility wasn’t as intentional, yet it still had interesting visual elements that helped in gameplay. Outlines were present around characters and interactive objects, the UI was fairly well presented and clear, the subtitles weren’t perfect, but they were there. If the studio follows its learnings from Forza Horizon 4 as well as other Xbox Game Studios titles such as Gears 5 , I’d be excited to see more players enjoy and experience the g

At this point, gamers should expect nothing less than the bewildering and disconcerting trailer from Hideo Kojima. While the developer’s past titles can get a ways out there, there’s no arguing with the fact that his games are highly acclaimed and provide incredible storylines and experiences for players. With this as an opener, there’s plenty of hype already building around Kojima Productions’ first game away from Kon

Fable was always a game that felt like you were actually building a character how you wanted. At least in terms of shaping your path and justifying moral choices. But you were kind of tied down to the armour available in the game’s world. And while that in itself was okay, I think I’d like to have the choice to visit a blacksmith and customize my armour and weapons’ appeara

But earning those power-ups isn’t as simple as spending one’s earned coins, it’s actually facilitated via the game’s coolest feature. After each level players accumulate a certain number of dice rolls, which determine the improvements they have access to. Rather than being able to increase your damage percentage outright, players have to hope they roll the appropriate number and land on that space. It’s quite an ingenious little addition, and helps keep that carrot-on-a-stick always out of re

The trailer breaks from the franchise’s hardcore action and slows things down a bit, allowing viewers to see the softer side of the series’ protagonist, Kratos. The seasoned warrior instructs his son in the art of hunting, weaving together guidance and discipline as only a parent can. The trailer has PlayStation 4 gamers excited for the next chapter in the God of War saga, and for the new story arcs that may generate from the g

The first thing to know about Fable 3 is that it’s pure and simple fun. Traveling through the land of Albion is an enjoyable experience, interacting with the locals, completing quests, battling monsters and saving the day. The second thing to know is that Fable 3 is flawed in some key areas which prevents it from being an elite g

So there you have it, some of my thoughts on what I’d like to see in the upcoming Fable title. It’s been a game that was a strong part of my childhood on the original Xbox, so waiting in anticipation for more details has got me incredibly excited. Although somewhat impati

Fable 3 is without question one of the biggest and most anticipated releases of the year. After spending a week with the game I can say with certainty that it’s worth the price of admission, but it’s not perfect. Developed by Lionhead Studios and published by Microsoft Game Studio, Fable 3 takes the franchise in a more accessible direction, opening up the world of RPG games to anyone who cares to pick up a control

E3 2011 is only one week away and fans are no doubt clambering for details on what to expect from their favorite developers and console manufacturers. We’ll be bringing our readers live coverage of all the high-profile E3 events and closed-door meetings — but, in the mean time, we thought we’d take a moment to summarize what we’re expecting to see at the upcoming keynote addresses — this time for Microso

Game trailers are one of the most effective marketing tools for developers, since just a few minutes worth of video can drive hype and excitement to overflowing levels within the gaming community. Throughout this year, gamers have been entertained by some of the most impressive trailers ever relea

On the hardware and software side of things, rumors have been suggesting that Microsoft might finally unveil Project Opara. According to early details, Opara would be Microsoft’s answer to something like Hulu Plus or iTunes, offering subscription-based television shows for Xbox Live, Windows PCs, and Windows Phones. Since this particular conference will be in direct competition with Steve Jobs’ keynote at WWDC , it would make sense that something a little Apple-esque might be shown
