2014 was a good year for game releases, with both the PS4 and Xbox One receiving some solid titles; PC gamers getting their fair share of new projects and Steam Sales; and even Wii U and 3DS owners having a reason to smile with Mario Kart 8 and new Pokemon titles hitting the shelves.<\/p>\n

Thanks to Metacritic<\/a>\u00a0and Dreamweaver, we present to you the\u00a0best games of 2014.<\/p>\n
