This one leans more heavily in the "FPS" direction than most others listed here. Still, Desinty 2 manages to provide an epic MMORPG-style experience with the thrills of FPS gameplay. Given studio Bungie's pedigree with great, renowned shooters, it's not surprising that this FPS experience is both mechanically solid and fun.

The game rounds things out with gripping cinematics, prominent social elements, and a range of enjoyable quests.
