The next category in our Game of the Year awards is best sports or racing game. And what a year for those genres we had in 2014.
When the last punches were thrown and the dust settled, Forza Horizon 2 came out on top.
“The bottom line is that this game is a far more enjoyable version of Forza. It’s a delight to play and a game that reeks of polish and pure fun,” Steve said of the game in his review.
Forza Horizon 2 narrowly beat out our Wii U game of the year, Mario Kart 8, alongside other titles EA Sports UFC and NBA 2K15.
Stay tuned throughout the week for the rest of our GOTY 2014.
