When the Xbox 360 Arcade came out i got it with Geometry Wars and UNO, but my favourite game on the console was Halo 3.


At the time Halo 3 was the greatest looking game on the console as it had innovative graphics and massive level design.It was revolution at the time as it introduced the forge map editor for a new generation console.

My favourite games on PS4 so far are: 

DOOM



Until Dawn 

Tomb Raider Definitive Edition
 

Skyrim Definitive Edition 
 

Dear Ester Landmark Edition

 
GTA V
Lords of the Fallen

The Metro Series The Metro series is a first person post-apocalyptic survival horror game. The game has two play through modes.
