NEW POLL: What Was the Best Game of 2014?

I really can’t grasp the gaming industry’s business model.  Release all your AAA games within a few weeks of each other and then let all but a few drown each other as they compete to the death.  There’s no better example of this than the complete gamer’s death valley that is the summer.  You get Madden (which fortunately this year was the best installment in a decade) and NOTHING else for four months.  Sure, people want games around Christmastime, but doesn’t it make sense to release a good slice of those games when the target market receiving those games at Christmas have nothing to do OTHER THAN PLAY GAMES!
