Wonderfully ambiguous title, isn’t it? Usually, this headline is somewhere above the newest processor or graphics chip, proclaiming that everyone will totally have one of them in a few years.

With the sheer number of video games produced since the 70s, it has become very easy for a Gamer to miss a quality title.

Most people love to be the invincible hero that can smash any challenge, while others struggle with the concept of playing a character that it’s literally themselves with magical armor or a really cool kick-ass weapon.  Storytellers of the horror variety...
